• A Little Less Sixteen Candles

    Chapter One

    - - - - -
    I’ve been driving about seven hundred miles with my car the newest environment friendly Aero X vehicle can be used with biogas fuel. Enough with the talking, I forgot, I’m Natsume Hyuuga; I came from Ottawa, Japan. My Dad......um.......I could say he’s handsome, a multi-billionaire. He owns the famous MacroTech Industries. My mom, ugh!! She’s to musical; of course if you play in a famous orchestra formed in Julliard, you would play fluently. I’m going to New York today because I was pushed by my mother to study at School of Music in Japan. Shucks!!

    “I should’ve taken the BMW.” I murmured to myself.

    I hit my palm to my forehead. I really urban places, I feel like I’m lost when I’m on rural places. Like, is there someone in there? I’ve been playing the electric guitar since I was 8. Yeah, yeah, they say I’m a prodigy but I’m really not. They also say I have a great voice. I’m flattered.

    RRRRIIING

    Ahh!!! My Blackberry! I love my phone, hahaha!! I’m addicted to it. Yeah, lots of features. I’ve been-

    “Master Natsume, I just received a call from your dad in Phoenix, you’re going to stay at the mansion.” Benjamin said in fluent British accent.

    “But I already-” I said cutting the sentence.

    “Your father let you stay here, and it’s an order and I can’t fail he’s command because,” He said.

    “Yeah, yeah you’ll lose your job.” I answered rolling my eyes.

    I finished the talking then, hurray urban! Lots of cars screaming in the streets but their place are too polluted with gangsters, I got it from facts. I smiled watching around the place. Then someone tapped the window hard. I raised my eyebrow. I turned my eyes to the right. I saw a girl hastingly tapping the window. I opened the window. I got shocked when she suddenly popped in the car lowering down her head. I was thinking like what the hell is this girl up to. I watched the streets and saw a girl holding a violin. She watched from her back to the left then to the right then continued walking. I noticed an ID hanging in her neck, I picked it up. She was Mikan Sakura. I stared at her and grinned.

    “What you looking at pretty boy, bring me home.” She said demandingly sitting luxuriously on the front seat of the car.

    “Who said so?” I said confidently.

    I smirked. I opened the door and left her outside the streets. I then stepped on the gas. Inside the car I smirked.

    - - - - -

    I already reached the mansion; it has a good environment around it. Yeah, it was near a cliff. I parked the car in the garage. The house has its exquisite style, dipterocarp wood is used as beams, and it’s composed of three floors. My father used to go here when he wants to get rid of the problems. He says when your lonely just watch the sunset and you’ll remember the happy memories of life.

    “Sire, what do you want for dinner?” A girl’s voiced echoed in my ear.


    I turned at my back and saw my best friend from, Sichiyo Yazaki.

    “Hi, it’s been a year, right Sichiyo?” I said.

    “Yeah, and I’m serving you for dinner today.” Sichiyo said delightfully.

    I smiled and then sat at the soft sofa luxuriously.

    “So you’re also going to go to school here too,” I asked. “I guess School Of Music, right?” I told her.

    “Nope,” Sichiyo said with a matching smile. “I got to a cooking school in New York.” She smiled happily.

    I was puzzled.

    “I’m going to a cooking school.” She giggled

    I felt a happy feeling for her. She has a school where she likes the most. While me, ha! I didn’t even like music, mostly 80’s love songs. I’m going to puke. I glanced at her and possessed a smile.

    “Great! So you got it.” I said.

    “Yeah, I got excited a lot and oh I forgot, your dad told me we are going to stay at the same house.” She said happily.

    “Yeah, a great way!” I said unsurely.

    I turned my head. Then I cursed at my dad in my mind. I wanted to tackle him in real life but sorry he’s in Arizona.

    - - -
    Meanwhile, my dad picks the phone.

    “WHAT ARE YOU DOING DAD!!!?” I started scream loudly on the phone that my mom heard it.

    “Is Natsume calling you honey?” My mom said.

    “Yeah!” He said.

    My mom then rushed down to the phone where my father is.

    “YOU JUST LET SICHIYO IN WHAT I’M STAYING.” I shouted.

    “She’s your crush right, I want you to have time with her. I’m sure his going to like you” He sad confidently.

    “But not this way!” I reasoned out.

    “I’m sure you two will get fine. I like her for you. Oh, wait your mom wants to talk to you.” He said.

    Then mom got the phone.

    “Sonny, how are you doing?” She said cheerfully.

    “Fine mom, very Fine.” I said rolling my eyes.

    “Oh, and one thing you don’t need to audition for the class, I already sent the video of your performance.” My mom said.

    “Yeah, thanks a lot. Bye, take care.” I said.

    I got downstairs and saw Sichiyo. She smiled and walked towards the table.

    “Bonapetite,” She said.

    I sat on the chair. I tasted it, I was amazed by its spicy feeling. The sauce, it tastes good, the aroma. All were perfect. I can’t stop putting it in my mouth.

    “This thing is very delicious! I never tasted this before!” I said with my mouth mouthful.

    The pasta part fell of to the plate. The she started laughing.

    “What?” I was puzzled.

    “Nothing, its just nothing.” She talked with a little laughing.

    Ok, so I calmed down.

    “Natsume?” She asked.

    “Yep?”

    “Can you go with me at the ball park?” She said.

    Then I thought it was my chance, the chance that could continue our relationship deeper. Then I turned back and than grinned.
