" Moon" a familiar voice echoed in her ears.
She looked behind the bench where Hiro was standing with his hands tucked in his pant pockets.
" Here you are, I was searching for you everywhere"
She stopped chewing and looked ahead nervously. He snatched her burger, sat beside her and started eating while his arm was spreaded behind her back on the bench. She felt suffocation and bent to stand up but Hiro spreaded his hand in front of her in which he held burger " Don't even dream of escaping from me" he warned as he leaned to her.
She looked up at his face which gave an expression of a cat having fun with mouse.
He leaned back to bench " So you are Asahi cousin and you were offended by what I did to him?" He got off from bench and sat in front of her legs " But who gave you the right?" he took a bite stood up and started laughing. She engulfed everything without chewing.
Then he sat down in front of her again and stared at her for a while chewing. Her hairs were fluttering in the air that made her white little forehead more charming.
" Are you pretty?" he asked looking into her eyes.
Her pupils trembled " what is he trying to pull up"
" You are not supposed to stay silent. You should reply me whenever I ask" He clicked his tongue " okay let me change the question. Go out with me"
" Why?" she clenched her hands nervously " why do you want to go out with me suddenly"
" Because I want to play with the moon but I don't want to break the moon"
At this exact moment Hana thought Hiro looked so handsome. His brown eyes felt so attractive. He looked like a Prince to her. She shook her head in disbelief on her own thoughts that this boy almost killed her a day ago and she was thinking he was cool?
" I have really high standards. I want to meet good people"
He stood up " I will try to become a good person" He brought his face closer to her's " For now you have to greet me whenever you see me. You are not allowed to ignore me "
He putted his finger on her head " If you don't, I will harass your cousin again " He turned around and walked away eating her burger.
In the he evening when she was headed home " how could I think he looked handsome? He is such a disgusting person" She shook her head in denial. Her phone started ringing. She brought out a pink covered phone and a white little dragon locket was attached to it out of her bag.
The call was from unknown number . She picked up " Hello, who is this?"
" Hello I'm an inspector from Police station. We have called you because we have received a report. Could you please head to police station?"
Although she couldn't grasp the situation, station was nearby and she walked to the station as they asked.
She pulled the mirrored door and saw two high school boys standing in front of an inspector wearing same uniform as her school. She nervously walked to them. The boys made way upon seeing her coming. A boy was sitting on the chair in front of them. He turned around, it was Hiro .
" What's going on?" she thought as she walked to inspector and sat down on a chair next to him on police officer's instruction.
" We have received a report that you have been physically and sexually harassed by Hiroko Nishimaru . Is that true?"
"Yes" she replied puzzled.
" Would you like to sue him or settle down the matter "
She looked at Hiro for a while with a suspicious questioning gaze " It's better to end it here" she thought .
" I would like to settle it"
The officer gave her some papers " Then you can stamp your thumb here and you will be receiving settlement money and the offender Hiroko Nishimaru will receive a warning"
" Yes" she stamped the paper innocently without even looking through it. The police officer placed a packet on which " Settlement money" was written.
She was about to pick it up, two hands grabbed the collar of Hiro who was sitting beside her and punched him hard in the face. It was her dad who came running after receiving call as her guardian.
The police officers tried their best to stop him but he just couldn't control his anger. Finally they tore him apart from Hiro who kept saying " Sorry" all the time.
Her dad looked at settlement money and said " who said we are going to settle this case?"
" Your daughter have already signed the settlement papers" an officer explained.
He held his daughter hand , glared at Hiro who was looking down and walked out leaving the money. On their way to home both stayed silent. It was a matter Hana never wanted her father to know. As for her father although he wasn't aware of details but it was still a huge shock and painful.
He stopped the car in front of Door steps.
" Do you want to transfer school?"
She looked at her father's worried expressions and said " It's not that serious dad. He just hit me in the head, I wasn't exactly sexually assaulted in any other ways. Don't worry"
" How it's not serious? I saw your head wrapped yesterday. It was fatal" he took a deep breath " How about staying at big Uncle's house. You can go to school there "
A charming smile of Haruma ran through her head . It was a chance to meet her crush, but she was still worried about Asahi .
" I will transfer if I find things too hard. For now I want to stay here" she opened the car door and came out.
Her dad let a sigh out and started parking car.
She came to her room and lay onto the bed face down. Her bag was still on her back. She removed the bag and threw it on one side " It was a good chance to see Haruma" she buried her face into the bed.
