Chapter 10: Truth behind Lies

(Jiro's POV) 

"Yuji! Where are you going?" I chase Yuji when he started to walk away and neglect the training.

"Far away from here!" He answered while he walks. I knew him for a long time, we are buddies since Junior High and with Ayaka also. But it is the second time that Yuji get angry with Ayaka I don't know the reason why, but I do know what happened before.

"Then, why are you getting angry at? Did Ayaka say something again?" I confronted him, but he didn't even stop his tracks.

"Just go back Jiro." I heaved a deep sigh and then I stop, I know I can't cool his temper now. I decided to go back and it was Alexis who I saw in the field while getting back at the stable.

"Where is Ayaka?"

"She's changing, let's call it a day. The atmosphere is not that good. Did something happen to them?" She asked.

"Well...." Then suddenly Ayaka pop out from the door with an angry face, then she stares at me more than a glare and then she steps away. What is their problem right now?

(Ayaka's POV)

That jerk! I hate him the most! I was just making out the tension then he suddenly gets angry with me. Did I did something wrong? I don't get boys these days. And I'm tired of him, what does he want me to do? I was walking in the stone pathway going to the main campus when I spotted him in the school grounds sitting under one of the tree, while waiting for Jiro. He suddenly turned at my direction when I ignored him. Then I strode away getting away from him and avoiding some conversation. I took a taxi and went straight to my house at the residential area of Tokyo. Yes, we are rich but I am not a spoiled brat you know for a rich kid, kind of but not what you think. My father is the Chief of Police in the Tokyo Police, he is well respected by everyone and I do too. He's a good friend of Yuzuhiko Usami, a famous lawyer on the Tokyo Law Firm. And yes, his Yuji's father. We get to know each other when we are in Junior High with Jiro. They are both delinquent at the school. And because I have my father's blood I was the one saving them whenever they are in trouble, until we reach Senior High. Even though we are like 'cat and mouse', always fighting and shouting, we are so close to each other. But something happened when we are at the last year of our Senior High, something that the three of us can't forget. I drop my bag in my room's sofa when my phone suddenly rung. I look at the name of the screen and it was Meter senpai. I slide it to open even though I am not in the mood to speak to her right now, I don't have any choice.

"Hello?"

"Where are you right now Ayaka?" I heard senpai's worried voice in the other line.

"I'm already at my house right now senpai." I answered.

"I thought you went loafing around again by yourself."

"Uhm...no I went straight home."

"Then? Jiro told me everything."

"Gomen(Sorry) senpai."

"Why are apologizing for? You better make up before the festival, you are not kids anymore and you know that."

"I' sorry senpai."

"Ok, I will let you this time but you better make up to him, ok? I will tell this to him."

(Alexis' POV)

It's been 5 days since that happened. I don't have the guts to ask why, even the other senpais can't talk about that. They say it was confidential because even their families are involved in it. So I had better ask her that if I want to know the truth. We are at the field right now to practice, but as usual Yuji didn't attend the training and only us three are present. I ask Jiro if he can persuade Yuji to come to practice, but he said he tried many times but he only receives one reply. I don't know what to do anymore, even the other senpais can't speak to it. I heaved a deep sigh out of frustration. I stock up my courage, I kick the side of the horse to catch up with Ayaka who is busy with her training.
