A few seconds ago there was a mother clutching her son’s hand and almost dragging the poor child on his butt was about to scrape the floor, a stewardess walked casually trying to hide the fact that her uniform was blood stained from behind and finally a couple stood right in front of me kissing shamelessly. I had this weird feeling inside of me as I continued to watch the couple.
Crap… I wish I was kissing Mao here the same way.
I looked closely at the pair noticing that a lot of people have been eyeing them and there was already a crowd of people gathering around them and taking their picture. A small guy with an SLD camera who has been flicking his camera from afar just a few minutes ago was now an arm’s length away from the couple. There were a bunch of Taiwanese adolescent girls that looked like high schoolers giggling near the couple and taking pictures from their cell phones.
What was wrong with this scenario? Is public display of affection that a big deal in this country?
I was wondering to myself not taking my eyes off from the couple as they broke apart. The guy who was good looking than the average Taiwanese guy I have seen so far was grinning in front of the girl, my eyes wandered towards the girl’s small frame. When my eyes finally got a good look at the girl, I almost fell off my chair.
RAINIE YANG?!
My head was swimming from the confusion and shock that is behold in front of me. A few days ago she was kissing me, now she goes kissing someone else after being turned down? What just happened?
Then I noticed that Rainee looked as bewildered as me. The guy who was kissing her awhile ago leaned forward a little and she seemed to relax a bit, then the guy took her arm and guided her towards the exit that was behind me, that’s when Rainie noticed me sitting on one of the chairs.
“Wha-what are you doing here?” She stammered in Chinese completely baffled to find me there of all the places I could be.
“I should be asking you the same thing.” I answered her in the same language then cocked my head towards the guy beside her.
“Hmmmm… boyfriend you left home and followed you here?” The guy asked loudly enough only for me to hear.
“I wish.” Rainie answered.
“Lucky me then, shall we get going?” The guy continued grinning at her.
“You. Come with us.” Rainee said with authority as she pointed at me.
Huh? Who does she think she is? The prime minister?
“What do I have to do with the two of you? That’s your business.” I shrugged my shoulders and tried to ignore her as I slouched back down in my chair to sit comfortably, but she walked over to me and grabbed my arm relentlessly.
I sighed loudly; exasperated that she was doing this to me when I have more important business to do. Sadly, this would keep up until I actually go with her. Better cut this short, whatever she wants from me. I took my arm away from her grudgingly and stood up from my sit then took my black duffle bag with me. Wherever my escort is, he could wait since that’s what I have been doing for the past hour or so.
Rainie stormed out of the building walking as far away from the guy whom she just kissed, as I followed suit behind her. The guy walked beside me and smiled cockily it was getting too annoying.
“Mike He. You are?” He reached out his hand for me to shake.
“Ikuta Toma.” I answered shortly then shook his hand firmly then quickly let go.
“Oh, so you’re Japanese then. That figures that’s why you don’t know me… my ego almost deflated.” He said looking relieved.
“What’s her name?” He asked pointing at Rainie who was waiting at the side of the road, like this was something he should be asking me after she just kissed her. I stared at him bemused by his question.
“Excuse me? You just kissed her didn’t you?”
“Ummm… yeah. But I still don’t know her name. She looked pretty and I needed that kiss.” He looked suddenly amused at himself.
I felt the urge to punch him instead.
“Her name’s Rainie. Rainie Yang.”
“Ah… she’s even got a pretty name. I like her. We’ll probably get along pretty well.”
This guy was really full of himself, what the hell is wrong with him? Erika would have swooned over the guy’s look but Mao would have punched him with this kind of attitude.
I stood rigidly at his side as I looked around at the cars and taxis pass us by, then one tour bus stopped in front of me and a blown up picture of the guy beside me was plastered on the whole bus. A caption was on the side, “Mike He the hottest Bachelor in town. See a glimpse of him in the theaters.”
My head turned to look at him and he was about to enter a limousine, Rainie wasn’t around, probably already inside the vehicle, he motioned for me to get in.
“This is my ride, we’ll talk things over with the food.”
An actor. That figures… This incident is just getting crazier by the second.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Just because you’re an actor/model/rich bachelor you cannot just get away with everything.” Rainie fumed at Mike as we sat in a restaurant.
“Well there goes my lovely photographer! I would love to take a picture of you getting all worked up at me like that.” He chuckled at her as he shoved some more food into his mouth. I was laughing at myself too after hearing the whole story of that bizarre incident.
“Honestly Rainie, aren’t you glad that a guy like him did get to snag you in the middle of Taipei airport? I mean of all the girls he could have chosen to pretend as his girl friend, why you?”
“Tsk tsk, you know Toma my man… I was thinking of the exact same thing. I could have just grabbed a tall stunning stewardess but instead I ended up with her.” Mike’s hands were outstretched and pointed towards Rainie.
“Tomato-kun! You’re such a baka! STUPID IDIOT! Now you’re giving him ideas and for your information I am pretty in my own way. You Mike He, your ego is too inflated for my taste and try to remember that I AM the one who’s doing you a favor, not the other way around. Put that in your so called brain.”
Both Mike and I chuckled as Rainee started shoving food relentlessly into her mouth.
“So, Toma what brings you here in my beautiful country?” Mike asked.
“Family trouble shooting.”
“I see. Who did you come to see?”
“I came to look for my father Kennishiro Tomoko”
Mike’s hand stopped mid air as he was about to put food into his mouth. He slowly put down his hand back on the table.
“Kennishiro Tomoko is you father? You got to be kidding me.” He looked at me like I was joking.
“Why?” I looked at him questioningly.
Mike suddenly looked at Rainie with asking eyes.
“He doesn’t know?” he asked her bewildered.
“Of course he knows dummy! He just doesn’t care.” Rainie rolled her eyes at her and continued eating.
“You are the son of a multi-billionaire and you don’t care?” Mike asked obviously trying to understand the whole situation.
“You don’t want to know the whole story.” I told him smirking as I continued to eat my food.
“I guess I wouldn’t.” He shrugged it off and continued to eat.
The door of the restaurant opened and two people I was very familiar with came walking through the door. Fujiki Naohito and Harada Natsuki walked towards me in their suit. They bowed courteously before me and handed me a hotel card key and a small LG Prada touch pad phone before speaking.
“That’s for your own convenience Ikuta-san. Your father sent us to apologize that he wouldn’t be able to see you today. He asked if Miss Rainie Yang would be nice enough to show you around Taipei to pass your time. He would see you the day after tomorrow.” Fujiki Naohito said as if the whole thing was rehearsed.
“Sure Fujiki-san, I’ll take him around.” Rainie said nonchalantly.
“Are you fucking kidding me?!?” I asked furious by this information. I went all the way from Japan to Taiwan just to see my father who professed he wanted to see me too, just to be stood up like this. I was fucking mad at the old man for doing this to me.
“Hontouni Gomenasai Ikuta-san. This is beyond our capacity and out of our hands. We are just here to deliver a message. We will call you in that phone if anything changes. We’re really sorry.” Harada Natsuri bowed once more and apologized to me. All of a sudden I felt tired. I just wanted to go to sleep and rest and let this go away.
I quickly stood up, took the phone and hotel keys then stormed out of the restaurant not thinking that people are staring at me or how Mike He the popular actor timidly observed from the sidelines or even how Rainie looked when she heard my father wouldn’t get to see me and how the two cronies of my father bowed behind my back showing their respect like I was a king they have to honor.
I don’t want any of this. My hand shot up to hail a cab which instantly stopped in front of me. I removed my coat as I entered the taxi, showed the hotel keys to the driver and told him to drive as fast as he could. The taxi driver nodded through the rearview mirror, as I let my eyes close. I shifted facing the window and swore loudly in Japanese out of frustration.
How could my old man not even call me personally just for this? That fucking man! He even has the decency to be called my father. Father my ass.
“Long day sir?” The driver asked.
“A very long one.” I answered shortly.
“It would get better.” He said.
I thought for a few minutes, thinking of getting home and seeing the people I care most about in a few days.
“I really do wish it could be sooner.” I finally said before drifting off to sleep.
