64 CHAPTER 64: You Don'st Like It?

As he entered the cabin, the beautiful black uniform lady greeted him and brought him to the seat. It has been a week since he gave her the note, but he heard nothing from her until today. No yellow box anymore and no more beautiful smiles greeted him at five in the evening. Touma let out a heavy sigh tried to ease the heaviness piling up in his heart. He didn't know when he started to long for her to fill his life with a roller coaster ride of emotions and he was hoping for Kahina to figure the hidden message behind the note. He knew he is playing with fire but if the fire the only way to clear his path then be it.

'Arghhhh! It is just temporarily. It will be over soon. You need to be strong! Strong Touma!' for him to convince others never been difficult but to do the same to himself, that took a different level of difficulties. Who he tried to fool here? Kahina never was his, to begin with, and now to hope for Kahina to return his feeling while he was doing everything out of the norm, he wasn't sure if Kahina had the patience to all of this. He let out another sigh.

Touma shoved everything behind his head and took out the tablet and screen on the emails. The first file he opened was from Madam Ara. It is the list of candidates for him, but nobody interests him at all. He needs to find a special woman. A woman who is special enough to not hope for his attention or love yet willing to sacrifice everything she had for him. The woman he can toss away as he pleases. A woman he can sacrifice as long as Kahina is safe. A woman is stupid enough to become his tool.

"Wow! That woman is beautiful. Are cheating behind my back, sweetheart?" a whispered came to his ears. He shook his head nonchalantly without turning to the source of the voice.

"I don't cheat but I..... Kahina!!!!!! What are you doing here?" He almost jumped out from the seat as he realised Kahina was sitting beside him with a smirk. His heart almost stopped just now.

Kahina snatched the tablet from him and scrolled down the file.

"If you want to cheat on me, choose these three. Natsuko Akiara, Misa Kaiba and Emiko Mate. I acknowledge these three as my rival."

Touma did nothing to respond her except staring to her face with shock still froze his body. He can't believe his eyes and afraid once he blinked, she will disappear. Without he realised he reached out his hand to touch Kahina's face and caressed it gently like it was the most precious thing he ever had. As he touched her soft face, he felt his frozen cold heart turned spring all of a sudden. He missed this feeling.

Kahina halted her words to tease him when she felt a touch of his palm gently caressed her with his puppy eyes. Her brain went shut down left her hanging not knowing what to do. This is the first time Touma initiated the skinship and she wasn't ready for it.From his eyes, she can feel his heartbreak and loneliness.

"Touma..." she called his name but she doesn't know what to say to him. Her mind refused to work at the moment. Now, his thumb exploring her lips making her face felt hot. 'Is he seducing me right now?'

With the naughty thought in her mind as she saw plump red lips of his, she instantly panicked and pushed him but to her surprise, her movement cause Touma to pulled her to his embrace. He holds her tight like a boy with his precious toy. Kahina can feel the pain from his tight embrace but she didn't retort. She returns his embrace and she heard his heart beating rapidly.

"Please... Please... Don't leave me..." when she heard him beg her, she wanted to beat him to the pulp.

'Who is leaving who right now? Wasn't he in the plane first? Wasn't he the one looking for a bride?' but all the complaint she had she swallowed it all. This man is hurting himself for her sake. At least she understands that even though she found it was a bit childish and stupid.

She patted his back, "Yes.. yes... I'll never leave you... I'm here now..."

"I miss you..."

"I miss you too, sweetheart."

They let themselves immersed in their feeling and ignored the surrounding but they were disturbed by the woman with a black uniform.

"Excuse me, I'm sorry to disturb but I need to ask both of you to buckle up your seatbelt. The flight will take off any moment now. Thank you."

She received a glare from Touma and a smile from Kahina. A smile from Kahina failed to make the stewardess's shivered heart calmed down from the glare. She doesn't know both of them but in her opinion, the lady is beautiful while the bearded man attractive jawline emphasizes his charisma but didn't subside his tyrant demeanour. She immediately rushed her pace vanished from the couple sight with her tail between the leg as she wanted to make sure her soul still remains in the body.

"You scared her. Look how pale she was. She just doing her job." she chuckled while buckled Touma's seatbelt and hers. Touma let her treat him like a little boy with no intention to refute at all. He enjoyed the feeling of being loved by someone even though sometimes he felt like he should be the one to do all the stuff she did.

"How did you know I'm here?" Kahina ignored his question and replied to him with another question.

"What is with this beard stuff? You much more handsome without it," he unconsciously touched the beard when she pointed it out.

"You don't like it?"

"Who said it? I love you in any style you choose. Even if you choose to be bald, I'll still love you."

a\n: a bald Touma? Please no!

Touma rolled his eyes cringed to her replies. Kahina is back. He smiled with the blooming flowers in his heart.
