"A hot night"

Reina had her talk with me and I gotta say it was quite....uninteresting and unbeneficial.

Her mother, Sakura asked for my phone number for a very particular reason.

But I just shrugged it off and gave my number to Reina immediately to call the night off since I don't usually use my phone. Even if I use it, it'll only be strictly for useful informations.

After talking with me, Reina greeted me her genuine and friendly goodbye while Arashi, well, just gave me another gloomy and devilish look.

My father volunteered for the cleaning of the table and to do the necessary chores for tonight. I couldn't help but to shed an ounce of sympathy towards him since he had this utter defeat written on all of his face.

Since my arrival, I could sense Sakura doesn't love my father the way he feels with all his mind and all heart for her.

What's worse is, I couldn't cheer my dad up and couldn't do anything about it since I have no way or an ounce of knowing about this particular emotion called "love."

I don't know how to love, I don't know how to reciprocate it. The last time I ever felt a love in my heart was when my mother was still with me, by my side.

But the love I had was immensely shattered by my own mother.

Anyway, it's getting late and I need to have some peace with my bed.

"....."

"....."

"....."

"....."

Couldn't sleep

The night is filled with breeze and chills, yet the coldness I cannot feel on my skin

It's so goddamn warm up in here..

Suddenly, my phone on my nightstand chimes.

I check my phone.

Sakura messaged me near midnight.

When I opened her message, I stumbled upon a picture of her.

A picture of her naked in a bathtub, bathing while holding a glass wine, full of liquor content.

"Ray-kun, my love, do you remember me? <3."

Deeply staggered, my mind went blank. I couldn't help but to stare at her picture like a soulless machine.

Coming back to my senses, I quickly turned off my phone and returned it to where it was placed before

"Just what the fuck was that?" I muttered with my eyebrows furrowed

"Remember her? What does she mean by that?" I added

I kept asking the same question in my mind.

"Do I know her from somewhere else?"

Minutes of deep contemplation and trying to process her words, I didn't realize my brain has had enough for the day and soon would lay off to slumber.

My eyes were getting heavier every seconds pass

"Just what the hell does Sak-"

"..."

Meanwhile, in the house of Himura, located in Shirokane.

Shirokane is a district of Minato, Tokyo. One of the most prestigious addresses in Tokyo. It is known for it's picturesque tree-lined streets and luxurious streets. Shirokane is home to many of Japan's wealthiest families.

Inside the house of Himura, in a lavish and large bathroom where it is brightly lit by the moonlight, there's a gorgeous, alluring and desirable woman, naked in a bathtub and happily humming a love song.

"Ray-kun, oh Ray-kun." Sakura sang with a seductive voice

"I knew you would come back to me." She added.

"It's just that I'm married to your brainless, spineless and unintelligent of a father."

Then she playfully chuckled.

"But don't you worry, Ray-kun, I promise he will be dealt with soon and I'll be yours forever."

Then she made an expression of a melancholic woman.

"I just hope you'd forgive me for the things I will do to your weak and brainless father."

But her melancholic expression changed into exhilaration in an instant like a switch.

"But you don't have to know about it, Ray-kun."

"You already lost someone you loved before and you manage to move on quickly." Sakura confidently said

She then gracefully took a sip from her wine glass

"Taste like blood."

She childishly giggled again
