Return

“And what’s that supposed to mean?” Nene asked with a slight frown sent his way.Like most guys she’d meet.. Nene couldn’t help but feel as if there was a second meaning behind those words. Not that he would ever find out, but she had probably been just as ‘lonely’ as he had, or at least initiated to have been, for the past year.

‘Oh great, he’s gonna hold some sort of speech..’ Nene thought as she saw how Kiriha’s hand went up to his chest. She listened to his words, loosing the frown she had from earlier when he finished.  "With the little information you give me I’d say yes,“ she replied and crossed her arms. Still pondering about the first thing he said she noticed how he suddenly lost his smirk. She tried to read his expression, but found it hard as he didn’t show anything.

Nene made a pouty mouth to what he told her, but it was like she got the feeling that not everything had been all that well while he was away. For once Nene respected that, a little faint smile appearing in the corner of her mouth as a response.

"I’m guessing you feel that way about the other things you didn’t want to share with me earlier too then?” She looked at him questioning, the little smile already gone and replaced with nothing else than closed lips.

“You heard it right,” Kiriha lifted an eyebrow at her, slightly amused at her reaction though it didn’t quite show on his expression. He could take a wild guess as to what Nene was thinking as she heard it, but perhaps he’d simply humor her with his own definition in mind. “It means that I’m the faithful type. Does that surprise you?”

Although he still pondered over why Nene would ask him about his professedly dubious romantic affairs, he decided to let it slide for the moment. But somehow, his mind began to wander; it got him thinking as well. Had she…? …He quickly stopped his train of thought there. He shouldn’t be surprised about it either; she was a rising idol, after all, with a pretty face, a sweet voice and a charismatic on-stage personality that her fans all over Hong Kong love. It wouldn’t be surprising at all if she had a few relationships along the way.

For some reason an unexplainable nagging feeling tugged at the back of his mind just thinking about it.

He had remained quiet as Nene spoke, up until she concluded her words with a rhetorical inquiry. A fleeting moment of silence, and Kiriha finally glanced back at her; only to see that blank, yet pensive expression on her face. And his frown couldn’t get any deeper. “You’ve got that right.”

Offhanded gaze still fixed upon her, his thoughts trailed back to those earlier. And it started to nag at him even more. Well, she had her turn of asking him these questions, now it was his.

“You seem pretty interested about my ‘love life’,” he scoffed at that wording sarcastically, but his tone while addressing the girl remained calm. “But what about things on your end, then?” He then gave a half-smirk, but somehow the hinted mirth just didn’t reach his eyes. “I wouldn’t doubt the charms of lady like you for a second, nonetheless.”
