Cherry Blossom Love's

WEDDINGS

Two weeks before Emi and Riku's wedding

-----

' Why the bride and groom are here', I chirped to see Emi who suddenly appeared in the office today.

' Not at home Nei, miss', he hugged me.

' Nearly huh?'. Emi nods. ' It could also be you, usually also installment'.

' Wicked, ' he hit me on the shoulder. I just smiled to see it like this. I know something is being hidden.

' Sit down, tell me, what's wrong with you'. He was surprised by my words. I saw him sigh, like there was a burden he had been carrying all this time.

' Could you remember Hiromi?', he said ventured to tell the thing he had been harboring all this time.

' She's the woman who approached Riku right?'. He's nodding. ' Then did he meet you?'.

' Yes, he met me a few days ago, he's here'.

I saw the look on her face start to change, I had a bad feeling with this conversation, Emi is not usually like this.

' Did he say something to you?'.

' Lots of things, she knew that Riku and I were getting married, so she came to Japan to see me, she wanted me to cancel this marriage for her son'.

' What a woman is out of her mind'.

' I guess so, because whatever I say he won't listen, I'm afraid to see it, Nei. He can be reckless, whatever he does, I'm afraid that he'll hurt his son to justify it at all costs'.

' Did Riku know about this.

'

' Riku doesn't know yet, I don't know what to say, neither does my brother know. Just you, Nei, I'm telling you this only'.

' Can't be like this, come with me'.

' Where are we going Nei'.

' To Rikulah's place, it's almost a break, later on the road we call Riku'.

' But.....'.

I held tightly to her hand, afraid that Emi would run away because I brought her to meet Riku. This was her future, how could she be married to bring about this kind of trouble.

Every now and then I saw her, Emi looked very anxious, she continued to hold her hand tightly. I know what he feels, on the one hand it is his fiancee on the other hand afraid that someone will hurt himself or others.

Arriving there, I parked the car, before I had contacted Riku to meet him.

'Ney'. Emi's voice sounded raucous.

' What's up?'. I'm starting to get anxious.

' That's Hiromi'. I turned my back once Emi told me that Hiromi was there. Hiromi and her son, I gulped my saliva, my anxiety proved. I looked at Emi's face that turned sad.

' Please wait here'.

' No, I'm coming'. I can't prevent it, maybe it's best for him to come face to face with them.

Me and Emi rushed to meet Riku and Hiromi. As we approached, I called out his name. Riku.

' Neira, Echan ...'. The look on his face changed. Hiromi who was beside him started acting up. She shifted her body to get closer to Riku. ' This is Hiromi and this is Shun , Hiromi's son, she introduced herself.

' What are you two doing', I asked without further ado. ' Don't I call you to talk'.

' I was waiting for you, Hiromi came just to visit me, she just arrived from Ireland'.

' Just arrived?'. I repeated the question. I looked at the woman cynically. ' Riku, what is your relationship with this woman?' .

' We're just friends'.

' Friend, but he doesn't think of you that way. Didn't you know what he did to Emi'.

' Neira's'. Emi pulled my hand.

' Riku will marry me instead of marrying you', chirps the woman who made us shocked.

' Hiromi, what are you saying!!!'.

' You're going to marry me, look at Shun, he always wants to be with you and you like him too, how can you leave us and marry him'.

I feel like I'd really slap her in the face. He never thought about the feelings of others.

' Hiromi doesn't mean I have to be with you'.

' No, you have to be with me '.

' Hiromi, me and Echan like each other, soon I'll marry her, we're just good friends, you know'.

' Listen, this woman won't......'.

' STOP!', Emi shouted interjecting. We were silent for a moment.

' Echan, listen to me, Hiromi and I have nothing to do'.

Emi stepped away from us, leaving us,

I saw Riku who was upset with Emi's anger.

' I'll call you later, Riku', I said after Emi.

' He will never marry you, he will not', cried the woman.

I took Emi away from that place. I held her trembling body, her tears began to fall. Emi was crying so hard, her chest must have felt tight. I let her vent her anger, I know it must be hard for her. I can only pray that everything will return to its original state, before the woman comes and Riku can resolve the matter as soon as possible.

----

' What happened?'. I looked at him sitting next to me.

' There is a problem with Emi and Riku's relationship. There's a woman named Hiromi who suddenly comes between them'.

' Is Riku having an affair?'.

' I don't know if it's cheating or not, because Riku only considers him a friend, oh yeah you remind the incident in Ireland, Emi thinks Riku is married'. Hiro nodded. ' He's the woman and now wants to ruin Emi's marriage'.

' Then what is the action of Riku'.

' I saw him again after delivering Emi. He is still trying to speak well with Hiromi . Hiromi is a reckless person, Riku is afraid that he will hurt Emi or Shun'.

' Shun?'.

' Hiromi's Child'.

' Why it's like this, their marriage is just around the corner'.

' Hiro be patient, we trust Riku . She loves Emi so much, she can definitely finish it'.

' Okay'. Hiro sighed. ' I'm afraid Emi is hurt and I don't want to go too far, even if I want to'.

' Don't do things that will make Emi angry.'

' Yes, I know'.

' Mmmm.. Now that I have to go home, Emi must be asleep, Nezu must be waiting for me at home', I said moving from my seat . Without a sudden cue Hiro pulled my hand, I was shocked. He hugged me tightly, I was already in his arms. ' Hiro, let me go'.

' Don't go home, stay here, I'll have Ryu accompany Nezu at home'.

' But....'.

' I won't let you go'.

' Hiro's'. I moved my body so that he would let me go, but my strength was not strong enough to escape from his arms.

' Neira, shut up, if you keep moving, I won't be able to hold myself back, I have limits, you know that'.

I'm speechless. ' All right, I'm quiet, don't do anything, okay'.

' Let's see later'.

' Hiro!!!'.

' Husshhhh, sleep'.

I feel like I want to hit him, he's always at will.

Without feeling the morning. Hiro and I fell asleep quickly without realizing that someone was watching us.

' Ahem...ehem...'.

I opened my eyes little by little, faintly looking at the shadow of someone standing before us . Once I knew who was in front of me, I jumped in shock and hit Hiro who was still asleep.

' Nice yeah friendly '.

' We're just sleeping'.

' Sleep well'.

' You're just annoying' chirped his brother.

' His sister is even said to be annoying, cruel'.

' Are you fine', I asked Emi who was sitting between me and Hiro.

' Maybe, but don't know if I can be tougher, I try to believe it'.

' All will go well', I said, then Emi smiled

' If he hurts you, he won't live quietly', Hiro interrupted unceremoniously.

' hiro!''s!'.

' Brother if your sister is heartbroken, brother who has to cure her, sister's money will be a lot so later take me for a walk, okay'.

' All right, little lady, whatever you want'.

' Sister is the best, my sister-in-law too'.

For a moment I was happy to see Emi cheer up again, even though I knew she was forcing herself to look okay in front of us. He doesn't want us to worry about him. I hope there will be good news for her later, I want to see her wear a wedding dress and live happily ever after.
