Gin Iro Ehon
Part 3
On the other day, Fumitaka met his friends again. He was angry because Asako didn’t care of him and made him shamed. So he asked his friends to do something on Asako. Asako was walking, she just parted with her editorial staff who will publish her book. She saw Fujiomi was waiting for Chizumi, she turned back.
("I don’t want to meet him. Strange…I keep on remembering him. There is something stuck in my mind. Chizumi Shinohara, since the meeting with that girl, we became a little clumsy. Why? Until this moment, I never made a mistake. I always stood out among our friends, I felt I have a superiority. Just look at Fujiomi, Even though the other friends were afraid of him, I knew he was a kind boy. I’m different from the others, I can get along with him").Fujiomi looked through the windows, he saw Asako was pushed by two men and the men stole her paper.
Fujiomi came and helped Asako, "Are you okay? They have run away".
"It’s okay. Just let them go".
"I’ll chase them", then he went away.
Asako was reminded of the past. She ever had a situation like this. She fell down when taking the rubbish. Fujiomi came and helped her.
("After we has parted, he never changed. Because of that, at the reunion, none of our friends noticed about us. Do you still remember the past, why did I tell it again when I met him. Is it me who still do that?")Fujiomi lost the men. The men have received their bonus, then they saw Chizumi. They remembered Chizumi as the waiter so they wanted to tease Chizumi. They stood in front of Chizumi so Chizumi can’t move forward. Meanwhile, Fujiomi returned to Asako’s place.
"So they took your paper?" ,asked Fujiomi.
"Yes, actually I want to finish it this week. But it seems I have to rewrite it again. Luckily, I still have the notes so I can finish it.".
Fujiomi wondered usually the thief will take the money, he felt he ever saw the two men before. Then Fujiomi saw Chizumi came. Chizumi told about the men who tried to tease her. She pushed one of the men to a pond, so she has to give a compensation for the man.
"Would you like to wait me a little longer? Huh? Why is Asako her?".
"Her paper was stolen".
"Paper? The paper for your book?".
"You are great, the two men are the thieves", said Fujiomi.
Then he turned to Asako , "I’ll bring your paper back". Then he went with Chizumi.Asako was reminded of the past again. Her handkerchief was flown and hanging on a tree. Fujiomi came and took the handkerchief. After the school finished, Fujiomi told Asako that he couldn’t watch to the tennis competition. Asako asked for the reason but Fujiomi only said that he had another business. Asako just knew after the tennis competition was over. Fujiomi was called and reprimanded by the teacher because he climbed the tree.
("Oh, I do it again. I feel ashamed to myself. When the judgement of Miss high school, I was angry because he didn’t praise me, whereas in fact he has come and congratulated me. Just before, I wanted to know about him and tried to understand, but he always made me hesitated. In fact, I didn’t know you yet. My superiority seemed to be disappeared. He was much older than me").Fujiomi caught the men, the men told him that the bag has been given to Fumitaka. He was at Danshaku store at this moment.
"So, it’s Fumitaka!" , said Asako
("If it’s he, then it is possible. He will do anything to defend his self-esteem")
Suddenly Asako realized something.
("I broke off with Fujiomi also to defend my self-esteem").
Fujiomi came to the store to take the paper, but Fumitaka didn’t want to give it back, He even asked his friends to attack Fujiomi.
("I don’t want to accept it and I’m afraid to think about it. I broke off just because of my self-esteem. Unintentionally, I made you as the bad guy just for my interest").
Fumitaka wanted to tore the paper. As Chizumi tried to stop him, she was pushed away by Fumitaka. Fujiomi who was surrounded by the men saw it, he became angry and pushed all the men away.("He didn’t care about me because there is Chizumi. I want Chizumi to keep away from him. Fujiomi should associate only with certain people, if not, I’ll lose. No, it’s wrong. Actually, I have known that Chizumi and I were different. Chizumi can understand him and open all his kindness. I have known it long ago").
Fumitaka intimidated to burn the paper, but Fujiomi still approached him. He became afraid and gave the paper back.
("I’m sorry. I always think about that. That’s right, I have said the bad thing. Sorry. Forgive me Fujiomi. I always wanted to say it, all the words I couldn't say………")Fujiomi was reading the letter from Asako when Chizumi phoned him.
"Chizumi? I know, I’ll pick you up in ten minutes. Asako’s letter has arrived. She left her books for you. There are two editions, she thanked to you"
"Thank you? I didn’t do anything, just made some troubles. But I am happy. Maybe it’s a thank you for the man that I pushed to the pond…."
"I’ll bring the books"
"OK, Thanks, I feel happy if Asako will be famous someday"
"Ah….."("Thank you Fujiomi, those words are the hints in the book of my heart. I’ll close it slowly and never end. My memories that have been opened…….")
"Fujiomi", Chizumi called Fujiomi, Fujiomi looked her with an amatory look and approached her.
("Next, maybe she will fill the rest……")
