Chapter5

#Chapter5

Vivian slowly opened her eyes and looked at the wall before her, reflecting the light of the sun from the window. At first, she was confused, but then she realised she wasn't home anymore. She remembered what had happened the previous.

So, she spent half of her life loving someone who hated her?

'Had I known about this before then I'd never fall for you. Because I'd rather be heartless than heartbroken. But look what you did.'

She didn't want to move from the sofa but she realised that just laying around won't solve any problem. Maybe if she acts nice, Kirito would eventually fall for her like in those romantic movies. She got up and rubbed her eyes. She stretched her arms and yawned.

Kirito had left for office already. The entire room was of the size of her house! At least she got money if not a good man! She decided to explore the house and walked out of the room in her pyjamas. So, it wasn't a hotel but actually the Hiomi family's accommodation? But it resembled a five—star—hotel. She felt rich just by breathing the air around her.

As she walked, the halls began to widen until they formed a huge cubicle with a swimming pool in between. It reminded her of her home. The lake where she and Betty used to bath looked just like this!

Believing that she was the only one there, she removed her pyjamas and jumped into the pool. She thought how nice it would be if Betty was there. She was just floating on the water when suddenly something huge fell inside the swimming pool from a height; splashing all the water aside.

/"Tsunami!/" She shouted as she splashed water towards the person.

/"Aughh!/" It was a young man who too, wasn't expecting to find someone at the pool. When she stopped splashing the water, they looked at each other.

The guy had brown hair and black eyes and he did a double—take as he looked at Vivian.

/"What? Never looked at a girl in an expensive swimming pool? I know I'm rich~/" Vivian flaunted in German and did a fake laugh to emphasise her sophistication while floating half naked inside a pool that didn't even belong to her—— Well, not completely.

/"What?/" The guy said in Japanese. You see, naturally he was confused since he wasn't used to greeting guests in the pool. /"Who are you and how did you get in here?/"

Vivian realised that he didn't know German and decided to play along.

/"What?/" She said in German /"If you don't want me to call the police, get out of here./"

/"Excuse me,/" He said in English /"You are at the wrong place./"

/"Huh?/"

/"Excuse me but get out!/" He shouted in Japanese.

/"How dare you order me around in my own house, you peasant!/" She slapped him on his head.

She had triggered him but attacked his pride as a man. She was so unlikeable! Freak! He pulled her hair /"Who do you think you are?!/"

She looked fiercely into his eyes and splashed water into them. He left her hair immediately and rubbed his eyes. She ran into the water out of panic.

/"He is a rapist!/" She shouted. He held her feet and pulled her towards him /"Come here, you little shit!/" He shouted. She turned towards him. His eyes were red with anger.

/"Aughh! Ugly!/" She shouted as she kicked his face with her other leg but he held her ankle and she fell into water with him still holding her legs. She shrieked as she frantically lashed her hands on the surface of water.

/"What a moron./"

/"What's going on here?/" Mrs Hiomi asked as she stood in front of them.

/"Mom, how the hell did this woman got inside the pool/"

/"Mother—in—law!/" Vivian shouted.

/"Eh?/" He was shocked and left her feet immediately. She fell and got up again.

/"Oh my! Vivian, what happened!/" Mrs Hiomi asked as Vivian walked out of the pool in her lingerie.

/"Wait—— She's brother's wife?/"

/"He harassed me!/" Vivian shouted.

/"What the fuck!/"

/"Aoi, we should talk——/"

/"Fuck no!/"

Mrs Hiomi decided to take both of them to Mr Hiomi and tell him about the incident. He laughed his guts out

/"What is this, dad! She looks nothing like when I saw her on the wedding day! Plus, she's a flasher!/" The guy shouted.

/"I'm not! I didn't think anyone would be there!/"

/"If you know Japanese, can't you just speak that?!/" He shouted.

/"You're fun to irritate./"

/"Go die!/"

/"Maybe, it was makeup? So, why don't you say hi to each other?/"

/"I'm Aoi Hiomi, your brother—in—law,/"

/"Hello, I'm Vivian./"

/"Yeah whatever,/"

'He is short—tempered but cute!' Vivian smiled.

/"How old are you?/" Vivian asked

/"Twenty./"

/"I got a cute little brother!/" Vivian petted his head but he moved away.

/"Don't touch me!/"

Aoi helped her unpack and adjust her stuff. In the evening, Vivian decided to cook something for Kirito. She had a plan to test something out.

Around 8 in the evening, Kirito returned back home. Vivian had learned that it was called an apartment and not a /"room/". And it was their new home. A king—size bed occupied the centre of the room with a television in front of the bed and a sofa on its right corner.

/"I'm back,/" Kirito removed his tie.

/"Kirito—chan! See, I made something for you!/" Vivian shouted as she brought a black mass in front of Kirito.

/"What is this? Coal?/"

/"Crepes!/"

/"This doesn't look like crepes at all/"

/"But it tastes like them!/"

/"You don't have to tell me if it's edible—— I can see very well how edible it is. Either ways I'm not hungry./"

/"You are saying no to food?/"

/"Dog food./"

/"But dogs are cute,/" Vivian looked at the burnt, black mass.

/"Why am I even having a conversation with you/" Kirito lay on the bed.

/"No dinner?/"

/"We are supposed to go to a party tonight,/" Kirito looked at the ceiling above him.
