Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Letting Go ❯ Takumisama ( Chapter 6 )

Chapter 6

 

 

“I have to go…” Minako whispered to Mamoru. Truthfully, she really didn't want to leave his warm arms.

 

“Mina…” He held tight for a moment then vainly released her to the world. She smiled at him sweetly as he bent down and kissed her cheek.

 

`Is this how Usagi feels?' Minako thought to herself.

 

“I will see you later…” She mouthed to him, backing away slowly. She then turned and took of running down the street. How could she do this to her supposed friend?

 

-Rei-

 

`How could she hurt Usagi like this!' Rei thought as she walked do that street towards her temple. Her hands were clitched into fist, `If Usagi finds out, she will be crushed! I can't let that happen!' Rei stopped and sat down on the stair of the temple.

 

“But, can I really just keep it from her?” She whispered as she looked up to the stars as she felt a strong hand come upon her shoulder.

 

`Can I?'

 

-Usagi-

 

“I wonder…is this for the best?” She thought aloud to herself, sitting down on a bench, “Do I really love him?” She closed her eyes, thinking about what was going on. Was she really meant for Mamoru? Or were they just playing their roles?

 

“Usagi-san?” A familiar voice came from her side.

 

She looked toward her side to see the man that she had bumped into earlier, “You!” She was a little shocked to see him so soon, but she also felt a feeling of happiness because she had someone to speak to now.

 

He chuckled at her, “My name is Fujiwara Takumi, but please call me Takumi…”

 

“Takumi-sama…” She repeated his name to herself, as if she we checking to make sure she remember what it was.

 

“Usagi-san? Why do you look so blue?” He slowly sat on the bench beside her, letting out a sigh when he had reached the full sit down position, almost as if it hurt him to sit.

 

“I'm ok…I just am unsure…” She looked down to her feet, feeling a bit unsure of her feelings towards many things now.

 

“About what my friend?” He smiled as he lifted her head with his warm glove cover hand to make eye contact with her crystal blue orbs.

 

“You see, Takumi-sama, I am supposed to be getting married this March to my beloved, Mamo-chan. I'm sure I loved him, but now…I just not sure if I am making the right choice…”

 

He gave a slight chuckle at her, knowing the feeling all to well, “Usagi-san, I, too, was supposed to be married when I was much younger than I am now. Actually, I would say right about your age.” He sadly smiled at her, seeming to remember all the pain.

 

“Was?”

 

“Yes, was.”

 

“What happen?” She ask curiously without thinking about the pain it would cause him of explaining it to her.

 

He smiled a vacant smile to her, showing his true aging now, “It was about forty years ago…” He closed his eyes, as if he were imagining it was going on at that very moment, “She and I were madly in love. Some people said we were crazy. We spent every moment of every day together doing whatever we could do. We had only known each other for about, well, a year, but it seemed as though we had known each other our entire lifetime.” He stopped for a moment, small tear speckles could be seen in the ducts of his eyes.

 

“Takumi-sama, please, don't stop.” Usagi smiled at him as she grabbed his cloth covered hand.

 

He looked into her eyes, seeing a look that he hadn't seen for a long time. A look of innocence in a person of today's world, “Well, as you can imagine, our parents didn't approve of us seeing one another. So, her parents decide they would go back to Spain to keep us apart. We were both heart broken. We couldn't go a day without seeing one another. So, how were we supposed to go without seeing each other ever again? That is when we decided,” He stressed the word “that”, “We decided we would run of with one another. We would leave all our material treasure behind, even our friends…” He sadly smiled to himself as if he were at that moment all over again. That moment where he held her in his arms so tightly that it didn't matter if they would be cold and poor. It mattered only that they would be together, forever.

 

“Wow…” Usagi whispered with amazement at their love.

 

He smirked, “So, the next day we meet at the train station. We had what we needed, clothing and some money. We were going to start a new life. It would be hard, but it didn't matter because we had each other.” He trailed off at the end, looking into Usagi's eyes.

 

“You two really were in love…”

 

“Yes, we really were.” He sighed, “We would have gotten away to, but we didn't know that her parents were there. They had thought we might try some like the sort, so they followed us. Right as we are about to get on the train, her parents stopped us. They then took her away from me. I sent her letter after letter for years, but I never got any responses. I soon just gave up and quit writing to her…”

 

“How sad…” Usagi choked. Tears were now in Usagi's eyes.

 

“A few years after I quit writing letters I picked up a paper to see her on the front page. She had married a rich man from America, just like her parents had wanted her to. At first I was enraged. How could she just leave me like that! How could she hurt me! But then I saw her facial expression. In her picture she was smiling and having the time of her life, just like she did when I was with her. From that moment on I swore never to love anyone again…”

 

“You did? How?”

 

“I don't know how I did it. But, for some reason, I never quit loving her. It's funny to me even now, after all the heart break and pain she caused me, I would still marry her if I met her on the street. I love her still…”

 

“I….” Usagi whispered as she looked at him, still holding his hand.

 

“Usagi-san, never lose that innocence that you have. You must believe in your fiancé, but most of all believe in yourself. Let your heart tell you what to do.” He shook her hands a bit then stood up. He smiled to her then started his way down the path. He was going back to where ever he started.

 

“Believe in myself…” Usagi blankly said. She blinked then stood to her feet, “I better hurry and get home! I need to get ready for dinner with everyone!” She looked at her watch, stunned at what time it was. She then bolted down the ice covered side walk towards her house.

 

`Thank you Takumi-sama.' She smiled to herself, as she kept her balance carefully as she ran.
