I thought I might be seeing him after the game, but no. Dad called and he actually came home earlier than us. So Junichi-san and I went home immediately after the game. Though, because of Junichi-san, I got a picture with the casts, and just me and Ohsaka-san. Well, his work is a cameraman, right?
Once we got home, I finally saw my dad and he really hugged me so tight. I finally met Mitsuki too. However, she didn't like me. I could tell, since she was rolling her eyes the whole time. I met auntie too and she was happy to meet me. Lastly I met Dad and auntie's daughter, Maaya. She just turned 6.
I went up to the attic and put my things. Well, why attic? I asked them too. It was small and I couldn't even stand straight, but this was enough. Since I would be living here for free, I should not be so picky. Also I was used to this, I lived with just a one bed sized room in auntie's house. Even though auntie told me not to hold back, and accept the vacant room, I said that the attic would be fine. I rolled my futon and sat on the table beside the window. I could totally see the sky and the front yard. There was one more window and there I could see the backyard. I took a picture of the night sky and sent it to Ryou. Sending him a message really became a habit of mine ever since we first started exchanging message.
And it was been two months. I started working in a restaurant for part time job, and also as a graphic designer for Ohsaka-san and Suzumura-san's program Banpresto. How did that happen? Maaya came to my room and got one of the arts I made. Junichi-san with Ohsaka-san saw it and they asked me if I could do some graphic arts on their program. Why Ohsaka-san? Well, he was always here in this house playing video games with Junichi-san. Actually, seeing lots of seiyuu here in this house was normal. Yeah, like today.
I had a work later today. As I went down to grab something to eat, I was startled by their loud voice. Today Shimono-san, Ohsaka-san, Hanae-san came to play. It seemed Shimono-san would be guesting in Tokyo Encounter. Ah, since I watched that game event, I familiarize myself to seiyuu, not to anime.
Ohsaka-san was so persistent and he was the one who pushed me into this. So I watched couple of seiyuu programs, and listen to radio too. I became too close to him, since he was always here and he also goes to the restaurant I am working with Junichi-san. Sometimes with the other seiyuu.
I walked to the kitchen silently making a low profile. Though,
"Ah, (L/N)!" Ohsaka-san called me and without no choice I smiled and waved. "Did we wake you up?"
"No, I am actually awake. I am just going to prepare for work" I said then he checked the time
"AH! We will be late!" he shouted as they all laughed. Especially Shimono-san.
They immediately packed up and left. As for me, I prepared myself and went to work.
Before my shift started, I took a picture of today's menu and sent it to Ryou.
Ryou: "Nice menu for today. (●'ω｀●)ゞ I want to eat now. But I cannot get off from work, since we were late again today (-_-;)"
Me: " (●￣ω￣●)ﾉ you are being lazy, Ryou. Haha!"
Ryou: "Well, my friends and I are having fun that we didn't notice the time"
Me: "Well if you are having fun it is fine. For now, go focus on your work."
It was then it was my time for me to work. But messaging Ryou gave me energy to work.
And my days passed by, it was almost peaceful except for one, Mitsuki. Well she really hated me. First, because her mom and dad gave lots of attention to me. Second, Maaya and Junichi-san wanted to play with me instead of her. And third, because of Ohsaka-san. Ever since she met him she likes him.
I was watching an anime with Maaya on my lap. Why of all day, my day off was the same day as Mitsuki. Since this morning, I could feel the gaze from Mitsuki.
"I'm home!" We heard Junichi-san said as he entered the house.
But it wasn't just him, I could hear couple of voices too. Again, his friends came with him
"What are you watching?" Hanae-san asked me
"Ah, shirokuma café" I answered "Maaya wanted to watch it"
"Penguin-san!" Maaya hurriedly stood up and went to Junichi-san.
"Ah, Penguin-san is not here" Ohsaka-san commented and he pinched Maaya's cheeks "Sorry for intruding again"
"Hello!" Mitsuki greeted them wearing an above the knee short a sleeveless shirt
"Mitsuki, how are you?" Ohsaka-san asked her and her face really was beaming with joy
"I am fine"
So as for me, in order not to spoil her mood, went back to my room.
I messaged Ryou about the novel I was reading and it seemed he was done also with his work
"Want to meet up?" He suddenly asked. I told him that I had no work today either. Today might be the right time.
I was about to send him my reply, but
"(L/N) can you work today? We are kind of busy and we need staffs today. We need you right away." my manager called and I had no choice, I said yes
So, I told Ryou and apologized.
I hurriedly prepared myself and when I was done, I went down to tell Junichi-san to look after Maaya. Since I supposed to look after her
"I thought you don't have work today?" Junichi-san asked as he wear his shoes again
"The manager called and they needed extra staffs. They became so busy"
"Oh then perfect timing. We are about to go and buy foods. We'll drop you off" Ohsaka-san said
"Thank you. That's help"
Though I was happy that they would send me, I felt Mitsuki's eyes glaring at me. I couldn't blame her, she was talking to Ohsaka-san then suddenly they stopped talking and he approached me
And they indeed send me to my work. Before starting on my shift, as my habit, I sent today's menu to Ryou.
~
"I am so tired!" Shoko, one of my co-worker said as finally there were only two customers left.
"That was so busy!" Naoto added and everyone agreed
"Thank you guys for your hardwork!" Our manager told us as we stood on the kitchen, resting and waiting if there would be another customer
It was then the door of the restaurant opened, and to my surprised
"Yo, (F/N)!" Junichi-san, with Ohsaka-san, Hanae-san, and Shimono-san came.
"Who are those?!" Shoko asked me. Oh yeah, every time they came and eat here she was always away
"My step brother and three seiyuu" I answered and I went to get their order
"Do you have any recommendation?" Shimono-san asked as he flipped on the menu
I grabbed the special menu from the counter and gave it to them "well we have this special menu today." I answered
"Eh?!" I looked at Ohsaka-san whose eyes widened and was really surprised "is there something wrong?"
"Ah no." He answered but a faint smile escaped from his face
"Ohsaka-san, this" Hanae-san was about to continue but Ohsaka-san kicked his foot and he just laughed. Shaded of red formed into Ohsaka-san's face as he said his order
"I'll get one of this" he smiled
"Me too" Hanae-san added
"Me too, then this and this" Shimono-san said as he pointed his orders
And then Junichi-san "I'll get the usual one"
"I understand. Please wait for your orders. How about drinks?"
As they said their orders. I went back to the kitchen and told them their order. I also got their drinks and served them.
"(F/N)!" Rina grabbed my hand and giggled beside me "I didn't know you are acquaintance with seiyuu!"
"They come here sometimes, don't you know?"
"I know them very well but I didn't know that they are going here! Do you know that I am seiyuu and anime fan! I really like Shimono-san!" She was so excited.
"Then do you want to help me served them? I mean, for you to be able see him upfront?"
"Sure!"
And so she helped me served them, especially Shimono-san's order.
"By the way (F/N), until what time is your work?"
"I'm actually done. Just finishing your order" I answered that made them laughed
"Well then we'll wait for you."
And they really waited for me. But before going home, Junichi-san and I sent the three to their home
Later thay day, I was surprised to Ryou's message
Ryou: "Today's menu was so delicious (^—^)"
Me: "You were there?!"
Ryou: "yeah, so that is the restaurant you always go, huh?"
Ah, I forgot. Indeed I message him today's menu, but I didn't mention that I work there. Should I tell him? No, somehow I felt embarrassed. I felt like during the time we were busy, he was there. I might had served him.
Though I thought that my life became peaceful and the issue from two years ago would be forgotten, Mitsuki knew about it, talked about it, but didn't know what the truth about it.
I stood on the side as she was so annoyed at me, and how a freeloader like me could take that I was sticking my nose too much on his family.
Worst was, Junichi-san's girlfried Uchida Kaoru-san came back from her 10 months study period in Canada. She remained silence as Mitsuki had her non-stop sermon about me
"As I told you a while ago, Kaoru, you better be careful to the people around you. Since there's someone lingering around trying to seduce everyone!" She again said while looking at me
"I'm home!" Junichi-san's voice came and followed him was Ohsaka-san's voice.
"Jun!" Kaoru-san immediately greeted him and she gave him a hug that made him so surprised
"Eh Kaoru?! Since when?!"
"This morning. I'm back."
"Kaoru, I told you" Mitsuki crossed her legs as she mockingly smiled at her. I just want to leave. Not just from where I was standing, but to this house. I just couldn't say words back to her since it was their house
"What's going on?" Junichi-san asked as he noticed the tension between me and Mitsuki "are you bullying (F/N) again?"
"Come on brother, why would I? Plus everything I said was true."
"Mitsuki!" Junichi-san's voice was so scary that even Ohsaka-san remained silence "what are you doing?!"
"What?" Mitsuki looked at me with eyes of looking down "this is bullying? Then what? Are you going to try and kill yourself? Please go ahead, I am just telling the truth. If you are that hurt by my words, then go hurt yourself"
My eyes widened as he said those words. Was it real?!
"Those words are inhuman, Mitsuki" Ohsaka-san told her in low voice and she just shook her head
"The inhuman one is the one who wanted to end their life."
It was my limit. I tightly clenched my hand, took a deep breath and stood on my words
"So you knew about it? Of course you do"
"What? Are you trying to talk back? Because you will gain back up?!"
"Mitsuki stop it" even Kaoru-san tried to stop her
"This kind of bullying you are doing, it is not even on the 1/4 of what happened to me. Your words are harsh, yes, but they have no more effect on me. I know that I cannot talk back to you since this is your house, but I think you should at least know, you know nothing about what happened to me two years ago!"
She glared at me and rolled her eyes "really? As if I didn't know that because you sent it to different number you were saved"
"True, I accidentaly sent it to him. But thanks to Ryou, I am still here living. Thanks to him, I realized that time was a wrong decision. But I didn't regret that, since Ryou told me to always remember that and make it as a foundation to move forward and become more stronger!"
"So? Are you implying you like him? Then go and date him. Don't stick your nose on others' business!"
"Mitsuki, are you thickheaded?!" Junichi-san stood in front of her and he was really mad
"W-wait, what do you mean by that?!" We looked at Ohsaka-san and he seemed surprised
"Oh, do not worry about it. Since this one here tried to kill herself two years ago because of bullying, then someone saved her, and now she is being mellow about him."
I glared at Mitsuki who really didn't know when to stop
Ohsaka-san got his phone out and he seemed calling someone. It was then Maaya came down and she gave me my phone, since she borrowed it to play games
"Someone is calling" she said as she hurriedly gave it to me. I looked at them and Junichi-san gave me persmission to answer it
Ryou? What a timing?! He always save me at the right time.
"Hello?" I answered but he wasn't answering "Ryou?"
"It's really you!" I heard him said that made me curious
"What do you mean?" Wait, this voice?! My eyes widened as I looked straight to Ohsaka-san. "Oh...Ohsaka...san?" I asked trying to confirm. I was so speechless that I fall on my knees.
Tears just ran down on my cheeks as I was so dumbfounded to what was happening.
"What is happening?!" Junichi-san approached me with Kaoru-san. Even Maaya was so worried
I shook my head and laughed "I-I'm just so happy"
"We finally meet, (nickname)" Ohsaka-san knelt down to my eye level in front of me as he smiled
"What do you mean?" Junichi-san asked him
"Remember the one I mentioned before? Someone sent me a message and we thought it was just a spam. But I took it seriously. Turned out it was real?" He wiped my tears and he smiled brightly "so everything makes sense now. From your messages"
"What's going on?!" Mitsuki glared at me "Don't gain pity, (F/N)!"
"Mitsuki, enough." Junichi-san stood up and looked at her "Enough!" he repeated
Mitsuki just walked out and went straight to her room. As for me, I looked at Ohsaka-san and I felt really awkward
"Right now, knowing Ohsaka-san is Ryou, I feel so awkward and embarrassed"
"Eh, why?! Isn't it nice? We already know each other" he chuckled then looked at Junichi-san "Sorry Jun, can I borrow her for now? We need to talk"
"Borrow?!"
"Well, at least I have a plan to return her, right? Be surprise if I asked to get her instead" he made a mocking smiled as Junichi-san gave him a chomp on the head
"I got it. Go somewhere else, I need to talk to my girlfriend too"
"Then let's go to your room" he said as he lead the way and we went up to my room
"WAIT!" we just heard Junichi-san shouted while Kaoru-san was laughing making him to stop and Maaya turning on the television
We arrived in my room and he sat down on the floor
"Sorry, it is a little packed" I said then sat down on the floor too. It was so awkward.
"Then, you really didn't know that I was Ryou?" I shook my head continuously to show him that I was telling the truth "I see. I actually thought that it was you when Jun mentioned one time that he has a step-sister that tried to kill herself but was saved by an unknown person. But I disregard that. I thought that it was so coincidence. Then again, all your messages were somehow connected to your actions."
"I apologize that I am that person"
"Don't get me wrong" he chuckled "I am actually happy that you and (nickname) are the same person. That's why (F/N)" I looked at him and I could see his serious but smiling face "Let's get along more from now on. In different way" he was so sweet, but on the other hand, he had this kind of side
~
A year had passed since I came to Tokyo, and finally I found an apartment to live in. I could still continue living there, but Mitsuki and I really had a bad chemistry, especially when she found out that, uhm, there was something going on between me and Ohsaka-san.
"So this is the last box" he said as he put down the box beside me
"Sorry about this Ohsaka-san. Thank you for helping me" I looked at him and he laughed
"It is fine." He said as he kissed me that made me startled "Your punishment for not telling me about this"
"I'm still not used on sending a message Ohsaka-san a message" I said nervously. How many times did I tell him that? Because of my habit sending messages to Ryou, I kept on forgetting that Ryou and Ohsaka-san were the same person.
"You messaged Ryou that you are moving and you didn't want to tell Ohsaka-san that you are moving since you didn't want to bother him from his work." He sighed and sat down beside me "You really keep on forgetting that, right?" he got his phone from his pocket and laughed "Oh, and you also sent a wrong message to me, but I quite enjoy what it said"
I looked at him and my face was so shocked and I was in trouble. What in the world did I send?
He showed me his phone and there "Please Shoko! I love Ohsaka-san, I know that, but...I had that kind of history, so... I am worried.. (-_-;) I don't know what I should do?!"
My face turned red as I looked away and thought of good excuse, but nothing was coming out of my mind.
"Well, how to say this" he again kissed me and smiles, a very bright smile "I love you too (F/N)"
Ah, so dangerous. From now one, I will be careful in sending a message. But then again, because of that wrong sent, new story will start.
~Wrong Sent to Ohsaka Ryouta Part 2~Fin~
~To be Continued~Engaged to Hanae Natsuki Part 1~
~
This story was actually based on a Japanese friend I met. Though the guy is not a seiyuu, he is from a soccer club in the school she transferred to and also in broadcasting club. He is also her step-brother's friend. And yes, what happened here actually happened to her. I didn't include on what the bullies did, but, well, when she told me about it, it was REALLY HORRIBLE! I asked her permission to share her story, since she really got over with her past, going forward with her life sharing her story and now happily dating him! >~<
Why did I choose Ohsaka Ryouta for this story? When I told her that I am writing short fanfiction stories about seiyuu and I wanted her story, she immediately told me to use Ohsaka Ryouta. She is a fan of her. Since, her boyfriend and her step-brother are otaku, they pushed her to watch anime, but instead of anime she fall in love into seiyuu. Not just Ohsaka Ryouta but lots of seiyuu, to the point she really attended seiyuu events. And the funny thing was, she and her boyfriend sometimes fight because of seiyuu.
So, I learned from her, don't immediately kill yourself because of bullying and just because you were undergoing too much depression and felt like the world overthrow you. If she didn't send that mail to him, she was probably dead. But she said, because of that she realized that she should talk that problem to someone she really trusted, like her father, and don't just easily end life because your life is only one. Also, there are people, even though you haven't met them in person, they care for you. There are things that you can talk to someone you really don't know in person, instead of talking to someone you really know!
>~<
Even though I knew that she already got over with it, I gave her advice. This advice, I will also tell to everyone, GOD will NEVER overthrow you. Pray to HIM, TALK to HIM, Commit to HIM and HE will do the rest! That is my perspective as a Christian. But if you have another belief, then that God you believe in will NEVER overthrow you! :)
Oh and yes, talk to someone you really trust. If possible, to your parents, or teachers. Okay?! lol!
Tune in!
Next...
Engaged to Hanae Natsuki Part 1! >~<
