My Lovely Cousin's

Chapter 21: Akiyoshi Kanako

Throughout the journey no one spoke. Zara felt really embarrassed about letting Ran kiss her lips even though she wanted to. But not for now, later when he's married.

'Stupid basic! How could you let him kiss you? Basic Zara, I hate you Zara!' Grutu Zara in heart.

Ran tries to focus on the road. Occasionally his eyes glanced at Zara who was seen biting her lower lip. Ran felt guilty for kissing the girl. Actually he did not mean but somehow there was an urge to do it, plus Zara's response suddenly closed her eyes to make her more complacent.

Finally after a few minutes of silence, they reached their destination. Ran took off his seatbelt and was about to get off. But at first glance he caught Zara who again still had difficulty removing her belt. Ran took a deep breath then slowly approached towards the girl.

Zara felt the movement that made her feel the tension that immediately made her heart almost dislodged. Ran grabbed the seatbelt the girl was wearing in a quick motion, then opened it. Just a few seconds later, the seat belt was removed. Zara was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Let's get off!" Say Ran with a flat tone.

Zara followed the man's long steps towards a building where a cosplay exhibition was held. Ran walked quickly to make Zara overwhelmed to follow him.

"Oh, Brother.. Why is the road so fast?" geurutu the girl.

Ran turned around and found the girl was stopping her steps with a face holding back the pain.

"Let me hold this." Ran Said. Zara looked at him confusedly.

"Have let me hold your hand, I don't want you to walk alone in the back." Said Ran who then held onto Zara's hand and slowly continued his steps.

I don't know what was on the girl's mind, she felt after the kiss made her stiff and awkward. Though before they were not like this, maybe the kiss will change the situation. Her thought.

After booking a ticket to watch the cosplay exhibition, Ran leads the girl into a room where cosplay will be shown. Ran chose the edge seat next to the wall to protect Zara from the threat of naughty hands.

"Why on the sidelines again?" Ask Zara in a protest.

"Do you like it when someone does something bad to you?" the man raised his eyebrows.

"There is also here? Isn't something like that just in the movies?" Zara tried to argue.

"Why are you so innocent? I could take one kiss from you." Ran said unconsciously.

Hearing the man's words instantly made Zara bow down in embarrassment with a reddened face. Ran chuckled in heart. He actually did not mean to bring up the incident earlier, but somehow his mouth spontaneously uttered the speech.

"I'm sorry I did that to you." Ran's speech was accompanied by a faint smile.

"Ah, no. No problem." Zara replied nervously.

Shortly after the opening ceremony began. The spectators began to focus their gaze towards the grand and majestic stage before them. One by one the cosplayers came out using various anime character costumes. Seeing this made Zara's heart a little comforted. A few minutes passed and the girl was bored. Cosplayer who appeared later was not so interesting, so he began to snort languidly.

"Sister, let's just get out. I'm starting to dislike cosplayers ." Reveal the girl, making Ran a little stunned.

"Begukah? What's showing up now looks less attractive?" Ran asked to be sure.

"This time I say, yes. Suddenly I felt like I wasn't enjoying it. Let's go to the sales place of the action figure alone." he replied while making a suggestion to the man.

"Eem, good." Ran finally broke up.

They moved from the chair to the exit. When the two were about to reach the exit suddenly a woman walked in a hurry without noticing around. The woman directly hit Ran's body until their eyes accidentally stared at each other.

"Gomennassai!" Say the woman in Japanese while bowing to Ran.

"It's okay." Reply Ran with Japanese anyway.

Zara stared with a look of astonishment and noiselessness. While Ran watched the woman who hit him earlier. The woman looked very familiar in her eyes. Well, it's not wrong anymore, he's Akiyoshi Kanako. Park in high school while in Tokyo.

They throw each other a faint smile. Akiyoshi shook Ran's hand without hesitation. Of course the woman also still remembers Ran well.

"Amakusa-kun, ogenki desu?(Amakusa-kun how are you?)" He said with a happy expression.

"Genki desu (healthy). How's yours?" Ran pulled his hand.

"Well, as you can see." replied Akiyoshi who still looks faithful looking at Ran's face.

"What are you doing here?" Ask Ran.

"I'm checking a few things. Ohya, I'm the one who's having this show, did you come to watch it?" sahut Akiyoshi fast. The woman seemed to be very active in interaction.

"Well, but I've moved on." replied Ran casually without showing the slightest admiration.

"He didn't want to watch anymore, so I decided to take him out." Ran averted his glance at Zara. The girl just gawked, she had no idea what Ran and the woman were saying.

"Who is a girl, who is she?" Akiyoshi looked at Zara with a sumringah while holding onto the girl's shoulder.

"He.." the man paused while smiling at a glance. "My sister." he continued.

"Since when have you had a sister, I knew you were an only child." Akiyoshi scrunched his forehead.

Ran shook his head, "No.. No. gabe.. He's my cousin's sister."

"Oh, thank goodness. I thought he was your lover." said Akiyoshi quickly.

"Hmm?" Now it was Ran's turn to frown.

"Ah, no.. No.." Akiyoshi quickly brushed off his words. "Did he understand what we said?" Akiyoshi asked as soon as he saw Zara's expression that seemed to not understand.

Ran looked at the girl who had been silent for quite a long time. "Do you understand what we're saying?" Zara shook her head quickly.

"Iiee (no).." An Ran replied briefly to Akiyoshi.

"Alright Amakusa-kun, it seems like I don't have much time. I have to go." Akiyoshi.

"Alright, Sayonara." replied Ran then back in Zara's hand.

Akiyoshi seemed to watch the two pass from before him. "Why do I feel jealous?" Akiyoshi asked himself then decided to move on.

...

"Who is he?" Zara's question was still in a confused fashion.

"He's Akiyoshi Kanako, my classroom garden when High School." replied Ran flatly.

"What's he doing here?" ask Zara curiously.

"He's the one who's doing the cosplay show" replied Ran.

"What else did he say when he saw me?" ask Zara again. Ran looked at the girl, his race doubted so much as to give an answer.

"You better learn to speak Japanese." said Ran.

"What?"

"It has. Forget it!"

"Hey, explain it to me! What do you mean?" zara was impatient.

"What's less clear? YOU BETTER LEARN JAPANESE!" Speak Ran with emphasis.

"Why should I study?" the girl seemed to raise her next to her eyebrows.

"To understand." replied Ran casually. Zara pouted hearing the man's answer. Then an idea came to his head.

"Then you teach me!" tusky.

An Ran stared at the girl again, but now with a dumbfounded expression. "Why me?"

"Who else? If you don't want to, I'll find my own course." Zara's pulling shoulders.

Ran weighed in, 'Well, golden opportunity.' Say it in the heart. "Alright Miss Zara who likes to rule. I'll teach you good and true Japanese."

"really? Ahh, thank you." Jawan Zara. Ran nodded while smiling thinly.
