"Oki...ro..." someone whispered to her ear. She focused on that voice. It's weird. Everything is weird. She murmurs.
" Okiro? " she closed her eyes and let her body lying on the grass again.
Everything here maybe look normal, but actually nothing's normal here.

MOON 2 : SECRET ADMIRE?
Normal day at Kurosaki Resident
BANG! BANG! BANG!
"OKIRO YO, Rukia!" Ichigo knocked his closet door several times to wake his petite shinigami. Meanwhile, on the left hand, he carries a plate of onigiri, breakfast for Rukia.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
"Rukia..You should get up now. It's really late, you know?" again he pounded the closet door.
"Heh..Or I will finish all of your..?UGH!" Unexpectedly, the closet door opened with harsh and almost making him outbalance. Fortunately, the plate that he held on his left hand not falling as well, promptly he catches his feet to gain the balance back.
"What the hell that's for? At least, you should warn me before opened it! Damnit!" he scolds her and eyes winking twice before heading just before his table to put the plate.
"Urusei na...It's you who trying to kill me, Ichigo." after sending him a dead muse, Rukia sat facing him with half-sleepy yawning. Ichigo now straighten opposite his table and quickly his long hand whipping one of four Rukia's onigiri without her observe. Shortly, after rubbing her eyes, the petite raven-haired notice that Ichigo just bring the breakfast upstairs. Jumping out from the closet, she get to her feet confronted his back. Her chappy plushie also falls to the floor.
"Uh...? Ichigo, why are you brings the breakfast here? I'm not sick or...? Wait?" Ichigo cuts her.
"Umh? Mu nyast nyinyais nyit, nyow? (You just realize it now.)...gulp" with full mouth he respond her. "It's almost 8.30, you overslept, Rukia..." when he wants to take another bite, abruptly, the onigiri disappear from his hand.
"HEI! GIVE THAT BACK! It's already mine!" he jumped towards her and attempts to confiscate the onigiri in her hand's back. Her back away make him almost fell to the floor.
"You stole my breakfast." her eyebrow quirked and smirk lit up her face. Every morning, they're certainly strident such as weekday. Bickering, chatting and teasing will be greeting for every new day for them.
Ichigo give up then sat cross-legged at the edge of his bed and scratching his back head then let a big sigh out from his delicate lips. Rukia's ignored his sulking behaviour and walking close to the desk.
Without become aware of, his amber eyes caught her step. He observed her yellow chappy pyjama slightly wrinkled as well as her messy hair. Even though they live in the same room, he never tried to study her. For the first time, he let his amber eyes monitoring her in every single aspect. She's petite and almost skinny. She also has a dark raven-haired colour with ebony landing softly on her small shoulder. Her hair is so shining. Beside, maybe she is not really having a woman called shape, especially "the asset" is flat, but, he couldn't argue how beautiful she is as an Asian woman. Indefinite, slowly he praises her beauty even just looking on her back merely. Unexpected, his sense of manhood revolting stir his sanity. Realized his perverted thought, he's shaking hard his head several times. There's no way I thought something dirt!
She glanced to ichigo and mentally cringed. What's wrong with him suddenly? Shaking head like that? She chewed the half of Ichigo's onigiri while her violet-blue eyes eyeing him weirdly. After a few second, he stops shaking.
"Hoe! Back to the earth, Ichigo?" Ichigo turn facing her and you could found the pink mark on his cheeks, blushing. Her voice immediately snapped him from his own thought.
"Thanks for your kindness, Ichigo!" she licks her lips and smiled innocent.
"You should not do that! That's mine already! Give it back! Rukia!" forgot the last incident, Ichigo got up and tried to dash towards her but, Rukia already full her mouth with his onigiri and smirking.
"You're late...it's already safe in my stomach~" puking her stomach, she's grab another one. Ichigo grunted.
"URGH! STINGY!"
Downstair
Ding-dong! Ding-dong! The Kurosaki's house bell rang.
"Coming!" Yuzu scream from the kitchen. "Karin-chan! Could you please see who's coming?" she's resume washing the dishes.
"Hait..Hait...I'm coming..." Karin gets the door lazily as scratching her black head. "Who's really kind visiting us in this early morning?" She reaches the doorknob and opening to welcome her guest, but unfortunately found no one out there. Her brows knitted together and frown glided across her face. Before her closing back the door, the caught sight of the thing that landing under her feet and almost trampled on it. Three buds of red lilies and a blue antic card.
"Uh? What's this?" she blinked twice. Red lilies with white colour leaves along with small card stuck between the leaves slit. She picked up and observe closely to whom the flower for.
"ICHI-NII! YOU SHOULD STOP STEALING RUKIA-CHAN'S FOOD, OR YOU GET FAT! Don't you dare to say that you still hungry!" Yuzu yelled from downstairs.
"How could she know that! " he mumbled. Rukia tried to close her mouth from laughing but it's already enough to annoy him. She knew that Ichigo's manner uncomplicated to read.
"Ichi-nii really annoying…ugh...Those lovebird…when will they act like an adult?" Karin's grumbling and tread lazily towards restroom whilst observing the things she was received. Yuzu, who practically finished washing saw the thing on her twins hand and jumped toward her.
"Uh! Yuzu!" Karin bolted. She almost breaks the three buds of flower in her hand.
" Karin-chan! You got a letter? Love letter? Lily flowers too? So romantic!" the girl eyes seemed glow like when a small kid got a candy. She clapped Karin's hand and without aware, the blue card slipped fell.
"Nah…it's not mine, It's for Rukia-chan…" she's ogle her brown-haired twin.
"Eh? Rukia-chan? Who is it? Who is it?" Yuzu seems cannot wait to find out.
"Why should I tell you? It's Rukia-chan secret, Yuzu...we should pass it to her, and then, maybe you can ask her about it...ok?" Karin keeps the flowers away from her and little disclosure by her reaction.
"hum.." Yuzu put her finger under her chin and muttered.
"What?" she's knitted her eyebrows.
"Poor Ichi-nii..." Yuzu sighed.
"Why?"
" Dont you think that Ichi-nii will..." Karin cuts her.
"Nah..They will never realize it, because, Ichi nii is stupid, meanwhile, Rukia-chan is clueless… stupid mixed clueless, you know the answer, Yuzu." rolling her eyes and sigh.
" Karin-chan! We should support them!" she balls her finger excitedly.
"Whatever..." Karin heading the upstairs walked towards her brother's room to lend Rukia's stuff and leaving Yuzu with her own thought. Nevertheless, the brown-haired girl's following her.
"Wait for me, Karin-chan! Let's pass it together!" Yuzu run trailing after her.
"What special about having a boyfriend?" Karin thought.
"Reward? You don't require it, Ichigo~ I never asking you to bring it here~" leaning against the closet, she chewed another onigiri and start heading to the door.
"Hey! At least it telling you that I'm not really heartless!" he grunted.
"Uh? Ichigo..." ichigo cuts her.
"Oh..Shut up! Stingy and stink! You should not eat before brushing your teeth!" Ichigo snapped then rolling his eyes before threw his body on the bed. I shouldn't be so kind to bring it! UGH!. Why is so hard to win her? He muttered and before could bend his body, all of sudden, the door was open harsh from outside, Ichigo bolted then rise up, at the same time, Rukia, who standing almost near before the door automatically stepping backward. Their eyes widened.
"Karin? Yuzu?" before he could finish his sentence, Yuzu peep out behind Karin's back and jumped towards Rukia. She lost her stability and almost fell on Ichigo. However, the amber eyes caught her immediately.
"RUKIA-CHAN!" the girl screaming and her eyes gleaming (you can see the hearts in her eyes)
"Yu..zu..? What happen? Ugh?..I can't bre..ath..Yuz..u-ch,,an" Rukia chuckled nervously, trying her best to pry away Ichigo sister's death gripping arms. Ichigo also seized up by Yuzu's sudden reaction.
"Yuzu...You may kill Rukia-chan.." Karin grabbing her wrist trying to alienated them.
"Ops! Sorry, Rukia-chan! I'm just excited…" she stared her feet and apologizing.
"No..It's ok, Yuzu" she rubbed her neck relax. Suddenly, the excited Yuzu's back. She approaching her and clutch tightly her hands. Rukia mixed up, her acting as if she just clinched the popular actress golden award. Sweat drop.
"Tell me! Who's this guy!" Yuzu blared to her face. Rukia knitted her eyebrows and puzzling appear over her face. "Who's the "guy" she's talking about? Renji?
"What..?" Karin cuts her with passing the "Secret Admire stuff" to her.
"For me? Who's..?" That is adding more probing to her but motionless accepting it. She stared her akin to seek out for answer, but before she could voice out, Karin already solve it.
"Don't ask me, I don't know whose the person that giving this to you..."
"What do you mean, Karin?" now, its Ichigo's turn to asking her. He suddenly feels like a blade just stabbed his heart. "She's got a secret admire?"
"Nah…how could I'm be supposed to know when the guy's already gone before I opened the door?" She rubbing her back head and turn left. Both gawk each other blankly. However, Ichigo turned back eyeing his sister.
"What do you mean by that? So, that's mean, you cannot ensure whether it's a boy or girl, right?" Ichigo stared her eyes deeply.
Become conscious with her brother's question, her mind rapidly catches an idea to harassing her brother.
"hehe~ Why, Ichi-nii? Are you jealous?" Karin smirked and crossing her hand.
"Jealous? HELL NO!" he jerked then rose up. Before he could fight back, Karin cuts him.
"Come on, Yuzu! We're needed to buy something for lunch, before the goat beard coming home." Karin pulled her wrist and making her way towards the opened door.
"But, Karin-chan! You said I can…?"
"Nah~ just give them some space~ especially, the "Stupid Carrot Top." she glanced to his brother and grinning evilly. For dense Rukia, she just laughed like an idiot behind.
"Stupid…carrot top?" Yuzu followed behind Karin with clueless expression.
"Don't calling me that!" he yells back and found Rukia laughing.
"HAHAHA! I never thought Karin will use "that" to teasing you! Ichigo!
" I said, SHUT UP!" he shouting at her.
After a few minutes, Rukia stop laughing and back to her sense. She studies the things in her hand several times.
"Secret admires, huh?" Ichigo landing his back near her.
"Huh? What's a big deal about having secret admire?" Ichigo is dense by her question.
"Are you..? "He paused, ascertain her little knowledge, he refused to explain. "Don't mind it.. I thought, only Keigo's crazy, but, to think twice, this man really needs a doctor." Narrowed his eyes then throwing his back on the bed.
"Hei! I'm not that bad..." she pause for a few second before continued.
"Maybe I'm not really gather about this secret or..Whatsoever, but, one thing that really catches my interesting is..." she's bringing closer the lilies imminent to Ichigo face and cause prevented his view.
"This…" she look piercing through his ambers eyes. He gulped. What exactly she wanted to explain?
"What? Why the hell about this ridiculous blooming dead flower..UFPT?" Rukia's fist glued to his left cheek before he could finish the sentence.
"I mean, look at this flower. I never saw white leaves before. Beside, in my book of knowledge, all lilies have a green leaves. You see what I mean, Ichigo?" she gazing back to the flowers.
"Ah…yeah… maybe the leaves had painted?" he rubbing his soared cheek.
"Stop acting stupid, Ichigo…beside" she's pause.
Both hear the sounds of footstep rushing towards the door. Out of sudden, the door has opened again with harsh. Yuzu again?
" Yuzu? What do you want now?" Ichigo scratching his back head after recognize that his little sister again and not his dad.
" Rukia-chan! I forgot the card! Here!" Yuzu extended the blue card to her.
"What's this?" she's accepted it. Yuzu smile building more confusion.
" Gomenasai..The card just slipped away~ actually, it comes along with the flowers too, Karin-chan said." Yuzu smiles innocently.
"Ah...thanks a lot Yuzu-chan."
"Ne..Rukia..chan..." Yuzu stared her feet.
"Yes?" asked Rukia.
"Can I read it too?" her eyes suddenly blinking like a shining star.
From downstairs, Karin already prepared covering her feet with shoes. They promise to buy something for lunch before their father comes home.
"Yuzu! Hurry up! We need to go to market now or you'll be late for making lunch!" she's screaming from down stair.
" Hait! Wait, Karin-chan!" dishearten, she stepped out to door before turn back to Rukia.
"After that, ok?" Rukia lighten her and smile.
"Hait!" closing the door, they heard her footstep blurry and gone.
"What did she give to you?" turn back to Rukia.
"It's a blue card. Um...it's beautiful card…" she walking near him.
"Just read it. I'm sure there will be the most unromantic words he wrote to you. Wonder if you'll understand too."
"Again, what's wrong with you, Moron?" she asked him again. This time, she clearly notices something you called jealous in his gentle-annoying voice. Even though, she honestly oblivious for what the jealous feelings headed.
Ichigo suddenly realize the way his talking to her obviously weird. OMG…I did it again! What's wrong with me today?
"Jealous…" the hollow disturb. Ichigo not aware the hollow is interrupting.
"Jealous…hum..Wait? No way, I'm not, you idiot!" he respond back and forgot that he just make a contact with his inner dark-pale "ichigo" known as hollow.
"See! That's called Jealous, King. Huh! I never thought that you were really this stupid in this case, King!" a hollow voice clearly sounds frustrated with his other self-called King.
Its consent with the Kurosaki Ichigo, in fact, this man is really awesome and strong when it came to fighting or protect. However, in this case, everyone knows how dense he can be. The reason is easy, for God knows, remember the auburn haired girl named Inoue Orihime who has a big crush on him and always shows the sign of love every time they spent or working together, but this orange delinquent boy, just as dumb as he is to notice it. Poor little girl.
"Wait! Who the hell you think you are! You supposed to be no heart or emotions! Argh! Did I just talking to you?" his actions caught her consideration and she able to sense his hollow reiatsu growing rapidly.
" Hollow?" she whisperings.
"Are you forgetting that I'm part of you? That's mean, I also have your heart , idiot. Don't judging me like I'm a normal-fucking-unworthy hollow, idiiiiiot~hah! Hahaha!" the hollow laugh ringing in his head.
"Stop howling in my head!" but the hollow totally ignored.
Outside world,
"Hoe, Ichigo…are you fighting with "him"?" carefully, she lay beside him with concern and worry look surrounding her porcelain face. She close their gap and almost touching each other nose just to make sure his eyes didn't change to yellow iris. Without observe, her actions surprising him to death! He could feel his heart pumping faster than before and may possibly blow in any second soon. DAMN! This is so close!
"Hell! I could feel fire heating up on my face now!" he cannot blink even once and could only stays still like a stone by her action. "Ru..Rukia…?"
"Uh? I thought "he" tried to take control you a minute ago." Sighed and turn back her attentions to the blue card.
" Hei! Don't call "It" "him"! He's not me!" thumped his foot on the floor. "Just read the damn card!"
Scrolling his eyes, he throwing backs his body on the bed and deciding to forget the shameful actraction before.
"Jeez… don't have to yelling, tawake." Her finger runs to the blue card and opening it.
Once she saw the word that written in it, abruptly her brows scowling hard for a second. So many mixed emotions, speechless, amazing, and bewilder. Yeah, the best word to describing it. First thing, that catching her violet-dark iris is the poem. For a few second, she stunned enjoys the amazing and beautiful handwriting poem. Even though, in fact, she is not really comprehend the meaning behind those wonderful poem that the poetry try to imparted.
"It's beautiful… Ichigo!" Rukia tapped his stomach.
"AWW!..Shut up…no need to shared with me.." ignored her.
"Huh? But, I want! This poem..Actually…I couldn't understand..." she focused to the poem back. Ichigo who dispense with her slowly begin to pay attention to her who reading the card. At least, she wishes for to share with him. To the one whom clueless about teenager's life, not surprise him. Even though in reality, girls always hide their secret, especially when it comes about their loves live. Well, that is not Rukia for him. Everything is about her always different, in all aspect.
"Since you love to read the "Pair" old man story, I guess perhaps you able to translate it for me, Kurosaki!" she handed him the card.
" "Pair" old man? Do you mean, Shakespeare? Idiot. Not "pair" but "Peare"." Sighed, he took the card from her hand and started to read it.
"Dearest : to the White Moon pure as a snow,
O Mistress mine, where are you roaming?
O, stay and hear; your true love's coming,
That can sing both high and low:
Trip no further, pretty sweeting;
Journeys end in lovers meeting,
Every wise man's son doth know.
What is love? 'Tis not hereafter;
Present mirth hath present laughter;
What's to come is still unsure:
In delay there lies not plenty;
Then, come kiss me, sweet and twenty,
Youth's a stuff will not endure.
"Desire is death, which physic did except.
Past cure I am, now reason is past care"
From : "Who art as black as hell, as dark as night"
Ichigo has taken surprise by the poem and he exactly knows where the poem came from. He's deepening his scowling and the uneasiness feelings gradually transpire in his heart. Through the poem, he easily figure out the meaning that the Poetry wanted to enlighten. However, the one thing clearly scared him is...
"How…"
Cliffhanger! I know this chapter is a boring chapter, but it's enough for me to let out my breath after holding it a few months. Uh...
