A Flavor to Love

12

Kirana stared at her smartphone screen blankly. It has been almost a month since he disappeared and did not make any contact with Akio. He said that he and the man were lovers. He only got word from Park Ha Neul's revelation that the man had graduated from college and was busy with his job as CEO. Somehow his heart felt tight and sick every time he tried to strengthen himself to avoid Akio. He was afraid to fall asleep with all the charm, cradle and fondling that Akio had been giving. Even if he gave a slight gap to Akio, he was worried that the events that once could happen again and certainly this time he did it voluntarily and if his brother knew that he was dating his depraved fellow friends in the past would definitely not get blessing. It has to be how?

"Until the monkey's leaflet as well as your smartphone will never turn into that Young Master, Kirana," Luna scolded Kirana by patting the scroll on her head.

"Oh, it hurts..," Kirana complained about rubbing the part of her head that Luna hit.

"If you miss just send him a message and I'll make sure in a matter of minutes he'll be standing in front of you. Don't play run away like this! Do you remember if he was the desperate type? Think not too neat why the hell Neng?"

"By the way it's really good not to use filtered!" Kirana snorted annoyedly not accepting the statement that Luna made. He put his smartphone on the spot and leaned his body on the back of a chair. "Whose fault is it that made me like this?"

"You mean it's all my fault?" Luna folded her hands and pointed her body at Kirana. Fortunately, today's class hours are over. How he was not upset with his friend. Although his mind was glaring somewhere, but for the academic size of Kirana was truly extraordinary! His values are nothing messy at all, inversely proportional to him who must focus on listening carefully to what is delivered by the lecturers. But this did not make him jealous of the beautiful girl next to him but rather a sense of admiration mixed with anxiety.

"You made me hesitate to accept it again by reminding me not to worry my sister." Her eyes turned to the ceiling. "I felt as if I were happy under my brother's burden."

"I think there must be something wrong with this?" Luna laughs.

"You mean I misunderstood that?"

"That's how, I didn't say I'm banning you from contact with Akio Fujiwara" Luna tried to stop her laughter.

"What lounge?"

"I mean make sure that when you decide to be with the Young Master it must be with serious intentions involving feelings and logic not just lust alone put forward. You know how possessive your brother is every time he tells you about you. You want the Young Master to be rempeyek if your brother knows that your relationship with the Young Master who has a problematic trade record with women has gone too far?"

"That's what I'm afraid of.., you know it's so akhhh.., hard to describe with words!" Kirana covered her face with both hands between frustration and embarrassment every time she remembered Akio. "That's why I ran away again like this..."

"So you haven't asked Daichi's permission to date the Young Master?! Really something!" Kirana was getting worse and worse at hearing the explanation from Luna. "Your age is already 20 years Rana, should be able to be more mature face any problems including your love affairs this time. Digested slowly and carefully, my words," Luna patted Kirana on the shoulder. "I have to leave now, half an hour of my part time starts plus a date with your handsome brother."

"I wonder how you managed to conquer my playboy sister by forcing her into a healthy relationship with you?"

"Sstt, that's a dong company secret!" Luna rolled one eye towards Kirana.

"Yes.yes.yes." Kirana rolled her eyeballs up and followed Luna out of the room."I also have to go to the karate club."

BRUK!

Kirana stared blankly at the unconscious matras with the ease of getting a slam from her senior, Reiko Takahashi. The entire club room was dumbstruck in disbelief that the famous Kirana strong behind her slim body was easily defeated by Reiko. Kirana without heeding the astonished gaze directed at her only got up and came out of the Dojo and sat on the floor while looking towards the sky. The sound of crickets is beginning to sound indicating that the cycle of moving to summer has begun.

"It's a drink for you" Issei Takeda, senior Club Chairman who had long observed the changes that had occurred to Kirana came to Kirana to ask her why the girl had lost focus by giving her a can of cold green tea.

"Thank you Senpai," Kirana nodded and received a can of green tea given by the chairman of the karate club and looked straight ahead again. A gentle breeze blew the soft hair of Kirana who was pigtailed by a ponytail. Without him noticing Issei watching from beside Kirana's figure. Beautiful and beautiful, actually in the depths of the heart, Issei greatly admired Kirana. The girl was so shining in her own way. He wanted to get close to her but for some reason it was like there was an invisible curtain blocking his desire. Plus the presence of Akio Fujiwara who always managed to attract the attention of Kirana. Competing with a man like Akio is tantamount to seeking death but he feels that Kirana is too beautiful to be ruined by someone like Akio.

"He-em, are you satisfied enough to look at my girl?" The dullness of the baritone voice shocked Kirana and Issei making them turn towards the owner of the voice.

Kirana was silent for a long time to realize the man. How surprised he was when he saw Akio staring intently at himself and Issei as if he was the target of an operation for having made a fatal mistake.

"A.ki.o...," His whisper was slow enough to make Issei surprised by the small name call for Akio Fujiwara. There is no way an Akio Fujiwara would want to be called his little name if the person does not have a close relationship with the man.

"Replace your clothes and trim all your gear! I'm waiting in my car now!" Akio's low voice full of emphasis towards Kirana made him immediately rise from his position and run towards the locker where his equipment was stored. After convincing that Kirana has lost her sight, she leads to Issei Takeda. "I'm sorry if I have to trouble you, Takeda, I hope you can keep your attitude towards my girl, excuse me!" Akio immediately passed leaving Issei speechless and could only clench her ten fingers.

Along the road Kirana could only be silent looking out the window of Akio's car. He did not dare to look at Akio who was so serious about driving. Akio's gaze was cold and dark as if he was harboring something that was just waiting for time to explode. There was no feeling that the car that Akio and Kirana were driving entered the basement parking lot. After his car was perfectly parked, Akio immediately got out of the car and walked towards Kirana to open the door. Kirana got out of the car and obediently followed Akio as one of the man's hands clasped her tightly with a hint of coercion into Akio's penthouse.

The sound of the door being closed which sounded loud enough made Kirana aware of the current situation. He turned towards Akio.

"I..," Not yet Kirana continued her words, she felt a soft object land on her lips. Her beautiful eyes widened in disbelief that Akio kissed her so deeply that she was helpless and could only attach herself to Akio who led her into the man's room. Oh my God.., why is he so weak in front of this man? Where is Kirana who is famous for her hard and indifferent attitude?

Kirana's irresistible moans made Akio's breath and lust burn even more. For almost a month he did not touch the beautiful body beneath him at this time. The body that had become a deadly opiate for him.

"Engg.., Akio..," Rinti mixed the pleasure that Kirana felt when Akio kissed the neck strongly made Akio momentarily stop his actions. The logic that he almost threw because he had not seen the figure so long ago is now back on the right track.

"We need to talk!" Akio moved from his position and sat on the edge of the bed but his sharp eyes were still on Kirana who had changed his position to sit leaning on the end of the bed. "Is there anything you want to say about why you've been avoiding me for a month?"

The flat but stern question made Kirana swallow her saliva. He felt like a suspect who made a big mistake that made him not wrinkle.

"I think that giving you a few days off from dating to not communicate with me can still be tolerated but you ignored me for a month without any news! Is that allowed?!" Akio's voice grew. He pulled his hair back in frustration to keep it from being brutal. However, this girl before him made it difficult to think clearly.

"I..," Kirana finally ventured to express her heart. "Can we just cancel this relationship?"

"What do you mean?!" Akio did not expect the question and statement that came out of Kirana's lips. How dare he ask for the most ridiculous thing for him.

"I'm afraid Akio.I'm afraid if we continue this relationship then you'll regret it..." Kirana's lips twitched. Both of his hands hugged his feet. He imagined how furious Daichi would be if he found out he was related to Akio Fujiwara who incidentally is his bastard friend. He can go berserk and break up the friendship with Akio even more so if they have a business relationship. Daichi is famous for his hands and cold heart for that one business.

"My answer is Kirana," Akio pulled both of Kirana's hands to reassure her. "What are you really afraid of? I'm one of the most influential people in this country so you don't have to be afraid of anything Kirana."

"But there are others who are more influential than you Akio." Kirana said desperately. Why is this guy so stubborn?!

Akio's forehead frowned trying to digest Kirana's words. More influential than himself? What does Kirana mean? His mind goes back to the time when he questioned the identity of his mysterious girl.

"Do you know Daichi Matsumoto?" Kirana looked doubtfully at Akio. But he was already wet because he felt pushed by this handsome man in front of him. Ha! Now he's gone completely crazy admitting Akio is handsome.

"Not knowing anymore, we are friends in any case," Akio said proudly and responded by Kirana by rolling both his eyes lazy. How not if he saw the behavior of his only sister like that automatically he concluded Akio was eleven twelve with his brother. Maybe this is karma for him because he always mocked Daichi's attitude so that he had a lover whose character was the same as his brother.

"Then what does this have to do with you?" Akio is back to serious.

"Umm...., if I tell you that I'm his sister how?" Kirana asked and the atmosphere between the two of them turned silent. Tuh kan.., must be so bad because the atmosphere. He was prepared for the worst possibility that this relationship would not continue. I don't know why his heart was pinched when he thought about it. Is it possible that he has really fallen in love with Akio?

"Pufh.hahahahaha," Akio's laughter suddenly exploded unbearably making his stomach hurt. "You? Senpai's sister? It's probably 0% Kirana!"

Kirana gawked in disbelief at the response she got.

"I knew Senpai had a little sister whom he had deliberately hidden. But in any case you don't look like Senpai!" Akio rubbed the corner of his watery eyes as it was not strong enough to hold back his laughter. "If you're joking don't overdo Kirana!"

Kirana's pissed off. The man who claimed to be smart in front of him only underestimated his words. He gets even more upset when Akio says it doesn't look like Daichi. Is it not similar? Though he felt himself similar to his brother if they stood parallel in front of the mirror. Something is wrong with Akio's brain. Whatever the man wants! Don't blame her if she's battered or banned from contact by her brother.

Akio doesn't know how Kirana can admit that she is Daichi Matsumoto's sister. A joke that is not funny! The girl before him did not show the aura of the elite like Daichi Matsumoto and his parents who were so intimidating full of charm that made the people around him respect and respect them. Kirana is too haphazard, reckless and stubborn. Unfortunately, it was this attitude that made her fall in love. Hey.., he finally swallowed his own words to not include love in his life. He's really crazy, crazy for loving a girl like Kirana.

"So...," Akio grinned as he**** Kirana's slender body and clasped her cheek tightly with both hands. She looked at Kirana desperately trying to channel her feelings. "Whoever you are, stay by my side and believe me that I deserve you..."

Kirana blinked her eyes. Akio's last sentence made his heart beat fast.

"I lost.." With all the power that Kirana had declared that she gave up on Akio Fujiwara. Akio who saw Kirana's embarrassed, proud and resigned expression became one chuckle then attacked Kirana, pulverized the girl's lips impatiently and hugged her tightly as if he did not want to be separated anymore. He did not expect to have someone who loved it felt like it could not be described with words...
