My Man, My Teddybear
Hi all! I’m
Minori Yosuke, a 16-year old girl who studies in Bei-Tao Highschool. My hobby?
Well, my hobby was, of course, hugging teddybears! It must be weird for a girl
like my age to be hugging teddybears the whole time. I started hugging
teddybears when the first time my grandma bought me a teddybear when I’m eight.
I can still remember that it was so soft and warm and fluffy too. That’s how I
started to like to hug teddybears. My dislikes, you say? Well, I hate lessons,
as I wasn’t suppose bring my teddybear to school! The teachers were a big
meanie! How can you let go of the teddybear that gives you a nice cuddly hug
the whole time?
‘Oy,
teddybear-freak! What are you doing?’ a voice was calling from my back. It was
recess and I was sitting on my seat doing nothing while interrupted by him.
It was Yuseka, a very annoying boy in my class. Well, it’s not that he’s really
annoying. He’s just being annoying to me by calling me teddybear-freak. Well, I
guess I can’t help him since I like him.
Let me
introduce him to you. He’s Tahira Yuseka, same class with me, and a boy who
always called me teddybear-freak. You can say that he was also my
childhood friend since we were always in the same class every year.
‘Oy,
teddybear-freak. Stop dreaming. I got something to ask you,’ he asked.
‘Huh? You want
me to teach you maths again?’ I said it, because his maths were poor and always
asked me how to solve the problems.
‘No no no no
no! I want to ask you is…are you free tomorrow (Sunday)?’ Yuseka asked. His
face showed no expressions at all.
‘Okay,’ I
replied, still being dreamy.
‘Then ja, we
meet at 3p.m. at the Cholate café!’ he just rushed off with his friends, as
usual, to play football.
….
….
!!!!
Did I just accept his
invitation? Oh my god! A date? With Yuseka? It’s the first time in history that
I was asked to go out with him! He never asked me before, except the girls in
my class and the other class. This is going to be a date? Woohoo! I’m feeling
excited but also felt kinda worried too.
~♥~
Oh my. Oh my. I’m late!!!
I was quickly running, rushing to get to Yuseka because I took too much time to
dress myself. When I arrived there, Yuseka looked a bit annoyed.
‘What took you so long,
teddybear-freak!’ he shouted at me.
‘Uh… well…’
‘And why are
you also bringing your teddybear along, teddybear-freak! Ah never mind. We
gotta hurry or we’ll miss the movie!’ without letting me to speak even one
word, he quickly pulled my hand and run towards the cinema while I was hugging
my teddybear. I was blushing when he pulled my hand. His hand was so big and
warm.
~♥~
We just came out from the
cinema after watching the horror movie. I was scared by the horrible stuffs in
the movie but then as Yuseka wanted to hug me to give me support but
unfortunately I hugged my teddybear, which made him think ‘ah…forget it’. Right
now, we were dining in the café. We chitchat joking around like what lovers
would usually do and sometimes he joked around too. My heart was like a deer
crashing here and there just to talk to him alone. As I tried to drink coffee,
suddenly I clumsily spill it into my clothes, for that I was holding my
teddybear against my chest.
‘Are you al…’ Yuseka was
trying to ask me if I’m okay or not but I was sitting there worrying about my
soaked coffee-smell teddybear.
‘It was my favorite
teddybear! Be right back, Yuseka!’ I held the teddybear and rushed to the
girl’s room, trying to wash the coffee from my teddybear. Yuseka’s active mood
changed into a no-expression face and he looked kinda sad too.
~♥~
Finally at the end of our
date, we were standing of the fence, looking at the sunset. Next to the sunset
is the ocean, which makes the scenery very romantic. When Yuseka tried to say
something to me, I accidentally dropped my teddybear into the sea. Again I
start worrying and plead Yuseka to help me get back my teddybear from the
ocean. Instead of his gloomy face, he finally took some actions on me.
‘I had enough of you,
Minori!’ he shouted at me. ‘I’m so pissed off hanging out with you,
teddybear-freak! Do you always care about your teddybear instead of my feelings?
If you only cared about your teddybear, then go date your teddybear!’ After
saying these words, he left me alone, in the darkness. I just stood there,
staring at him for a while, and then I finally let out a cry. I know I
shouldn’t have worry about my teddybear too much. This could be my worst day of
my life. I knew Yuseka was not going to talk to me anymore.
~♥~
It was already late night
and I’m still lying there, crying. Just as I was about to give up my teddybear
go home, suddenly I can see a man approaching me. He walked and walked and
walked and oh! It was Yuseka.
‘Nah! (He threw the same
teddybear that fell to the ocean at me.) It took me hours to find the same one
for you. Man, it almost cost all of my allowance, you know?’
I stood there, felt
touched and ran to him and thank him.
‘It’s nothing, really.
The things I do for my love one…’ he said.
‘Huh?’
‘Hey Minori, do you know
there’s even a better stuff to hug other than teddybear?’
‘What is it?’ I asked
back. He walked towards me, held his arm around me and started hugging me
tightly.
‘Me,’ he said, while
kissing my face. His body was so nice and warm, and even comfortable too. I too
put my arms around him, hugging him, while dropping my teddybear. Then I looked
into his eyes while his at me then we start kissing each other. Lastly he said
to me, ‘I love you.’ He was the one that I would really care for in my life
instead of teddybears. He was my one and only teddybear!♥
