Don't Need You, Leave Me

Chapter 4

Himeko was in bed and thinking about what happened today. The thing with Shai and what Mei told her
I know it's my father's fault. He did this to her...he's the one that should be in prison. Now Shai has gone mad...poor Shai...but...she replaced me for that other bitch. Why though? Was she using me? No...no she wasn't...I could tell by her eyes that she...she really did love me. Her beautiful and cute smile. Oh...everything about her is just so...so...so adorable and sweet
Himeko just sighed and stared at the ceiling. She clenched her fists tightly and sat up
Damnit...I can't sleep...
Himeko just looked down and that's when she heard a soft bark. She looked down and saw Pucchi. She smiled and held Pucchi in her arms
"What do you think Pucchi?" Himeko asked. Pucchi just barked softly and licked her hand
"If only you could talk..." Himeko said and petted Pucchi's head. Pucchi's ears perked up and looked at the door
"Hm? Is there something wrong?" Himeko asked. Pucchi jumped off of her arms and walked to the door. Pucchi jumped up and scratched the door
"Huh? Is there someone out?" Himeko asked and stood up. She walked up to the door and trembled a bit then looked down at Pucchi. Pucchi barked and growled at the door
Is there someone here too? Probably father or mother right? Or maybe the servants?
Himeko opened the door and looked around. She got out and walked downstairs. She shivered a bit feeling slightly cold and looked around
Hmm...there's no one. Everyone is in there room. Why was Pucchi acting like that?
Suddenly Himeko turned around hearing some noise coming from the kitchen. She walked to the kitchen shaking a bit and turned on the lights. She saw no one but her eyes widen seeing a knife on the floor
Wh-what? Why i-is there a knife?
"Why not kill him?"
Himeko walked up to the knife and grabbed it. She looked at it and her eyes widen seeing Shai's reflection. She turned around and saw no one
What's going on? Am I hallucinating? D-did I just saw...Shai? No...Shai is still in prison...right? She wouldn't have escaped. Even if she did...she wouldn't come here. She has her anyways...
Suddenly Himeko gasped as someone wrapped their arm around her then covered her mouth
"Himeko shhhh...it's okay" Shai spoke softly and gently not wanting to scare Himeko. Himeko trembled and looked at Shai. Shai's eyes reminded Himeko the time where she met Shailung. Shai removed her hand from her mouth and released her. Himeko stood there and glared at her
"What the hell are you doing here?" Himeko asked
"I-I only wanted to-"
"Shut up and leave. My father will get pissed if he sees you here" Himeko said
"Y-yeah I know but I just-"
"Leave" Himeko said sternly
"Can't you just let me finish my sentence?" Shai asked
"I know what you're going to say anyways and I don't want to hear it so just fuck off and go with your girlfriend" Himeko said looking away and turned off the lights
"G-girlfriend? Eh? What do you mean?" Shai asked
"Don't play dumb...I know you want her more than me. So just leave me alone and go with her" Himeko said
"H-himeko...please...I-I'm sorry I just...I was cr-crazy back there" Shai said as tears built up in her eyes. Himeko just glared at her and walked away
"Stay safe and try not to get yourself in trouble" Himeko said and went upstairs
"N-no...Himeko...wait please" Shai said and followed her upstairs. Himeko turned around and glared at her
"Hey...I said leave" Himeko said
"S-sorry...please.. " Shai said
"How did you escape?" Himeko asked
"O-oh...Yuzuko helped me out. Sh-she's back" Shai said. Himeko's eyes widen for a moment and sighed
So...the delinquent is back. Hmm...I know I hate her and everything but Mei has been upset ever since she left. As her bestest friend I'll help her get back with her...but how can I talk to the delinquent?
Himeko looked at Shai and sighed
Great...I need her help to be able to talk to the delinquent
"Hey...is it possible for you to help me talk to her?" Himeko asked
"E-eh? Wait...why do you want to talk to her?" Shai asked
"Because...it's for Meimei...she needs my help" Himeko said. Shai's eyes widen and felt her heartache
Meimei? Isn't that...the Aihara person she used to like? Does she still like her? N-no way right? Th-there is no way...right? Hehehehehehehe...
"Sure...I'll help" Shai said
"Thanks..." Himeko said
"If you come back to me..." Shai said
"Huh? Wait...what?" Himeko asked
"If you want my help you have to come back to me" Shai said
"Hmph. I don't need your help..." Himeko said and walked away
"H-himeko..." Shai said
"Stay away from me...please and thanks" Himeko said and headed to her room. Shai stood there and sighed deeply
Great...I really screwed up...didn't I?
