The Queen VS Princess

Sacrifice

“kak Sojirooooo.......!!!” Shouted Mia while waving her hand.

Sojiro immediately ran towards Mia who waved at him.

“where's Hana? Are you with him? Did you see it?” asked Sojiro who looked panicked. Breath gasping.

“kak Sojiro has no idea?” tanya Mia who even asked Sojiro. “today she did not enter. Even Hana did not give any information to the school. Just calling me no. Does your sister know something?”

Sojiro was silent. He remembered the fatal incident yesterday. Could it be that Hana was sick from being too heavy thinking about yesterday's problems? What could he do? Even he was afraid to go to Hana's house again after yesterday hitting Leo.

“Mia, may I ask you something?”

“please, sis.” Mia felt like it would be a long conversation. He immediately looked for a comfortable seat to chat with Sojiro.

“did you know that Leo likes Hana?” ask Sojiro who is directly at the core of the question.

It would seem that Mia was really surprised to hear that question. He moved his head left and right, making sure what he heard was not wrong.

“where does Brother Sojiro know about that? What's Hana telling you?”

“what from the beginning they've been close to each other?” Sojiro started to worry. His tone began to vibrate. “night, Leo told her his feelings for Hana. It happened in front of my eyes. Out of anger, I hit Leo. It caused a commotion to the Hana.” family

“gak possible.” Mia said while closing her mouth. His eyes glazed over at Sojiro's statement.

“what do you know about them? What exactly do I not know?”

Inevitably it seems that Mia has to explain everything to Sojiro. If it is true that the story is like that, there is nothing more to hide.

“actually Leo's sister was Hana's private tutor during her Junior High School exam. Slowly they are close and often even come out together even if not for tutoring. Though at that time it was very clear if they both had the same feeling.”

Sojiro was silent listening to Mia's story.

“however, the happiness between them was instantly shattered when they found out that Hana's father was going to marry Leo's mother. There may be a child who selfishly opposes the happiness of his parents for choosing his own happiness. Hana was completely destroyed. He had to forget Leo for whatever reason. But, those who live one roof make Hana increasingly unable to forget Leo. Hana's downfall only becomes more when Leo introduces Kak Kumika as his girlfriend.”

Sojiro lowered his head to listen to every word from Mia.

“at such a time, Brother Sojiro was present to pay attention and warmth to Hana. Honestly, I hope you guys stay together forever. I hope Hana's wounded heart can be healed by Sojiro.”

Mia turned to Sojiro. He is sure if this is not a good thing that Sojiro wants to hear. “if Kak Sojiro really loves Hana, I am sure at this time you know what is best for you.”

Sojiro started to get up and smile. A smile that looks pushy. However, there is a hint of hope light appearing on his face. “I will do my best. Thanks Mia.”

Mia looked at Sojiro who ran away leaving her. “Hana, the decision is yours. Hope it's the best.”

*************

“you're okay? Today I heard from Mia you're not in.” Sojiro finally broke the silence between them.

Hana sits sweetly next to Sojiro. Without looking at Sojiro's face, he answered his question. “sorry, I didn't tell you. I'm doing fine. I was just a little dizzy this morning.”

“Hana, there's something I want to talk about.”

“i also have something to say.”

Sojiro looked straight ahead. His eyes began to glare. His face turned into a sissy. He was silent for a few seconds until he finally started to say it.

“i've heard all from Mia. Everything was. About you and Leo.”

Hana looked at Sojiro's face. Guilt arose in his heart. He could feel that this was the end of everything. Hana looked back. Letting Sojiro finish everything he wanted to talk about.

“Hana, be honest with me. How you feel about me and how you feel about Leo. I want you to honestly say it. I want to hear it directly from you.”

Hana speechless. Hands clenched. Strengthened his own heart to tell the truth.

“forgive me, Brother Sojiro. At first I accepted your feelings because I wanted to forget Leo's brother. I was heartbroken when I found out she had a boyfriend. That's why I accepted you for my escape.”

Sojiro looked at Hana sharply. His eyes look sad.

“I wish I could repay your love like you love me. You're very kind and considerate of me. Your family is warm and mature too. There's a part of me that's proud to be your girlfriend. But I know that I will only hurt you.”

Sojiro clenched his hand. Trying to strengthen his own heart.

“I think I've forgotten Leo's brother since you were. But it turns out I was wrong. The taste is still there and remains the same not diminished in the least. It just keeps getting more and more every day. Until I finally couldn't hold it in my heart anymore. When I heard he was pouring all his feelings on my parents, I cried. It's as if Leo's brother said all the burdens in my heart all this time.”

Sojiro clasped Hana's hand. Strengthen each other's hearts.

“forgive me brother Sojiro. Until you're this good to me, but I still can't love you. I feel unworthy to be the one you love.”

Sojiro grabs Hana's face and wipes away her tears.

“you don't have to apologize. I was the one who should have realized it from the beginning. You've been through a lot of sad things. You should be happy with the person you love. If this is what makes you happy, I'd be willing to let you go.”

Hana looked at Sojiro with a surprised look. Sojiro grabbed Hana's face and then kissed her forehead slowly.

“thank you for filling my days so far. May you be happy.”

Hana's tears are dripping. Sojiro immediately left Hana without looking back again. His shoulders were shaking withstanding the crying. Even a man would shed his tears if it concerned someone meaningful. A forced love will not work. However, if it makes a person feel happy, anything will be done.
