Chapter 6 My Cat, My girlfriend!

Tom approached them and asked.

"Bro, you might want to introduce your cat?" said Tom.

Hiro walks to Aya and puts his hand on Aya's shoulder from behind.

"This is Aya... My girlfriend!" said Hiro.

'"You are the first one!" Tom whispered in Aya's ears.

Aya was surprised when Hiro suddenly embraced her and said... "My girlfriend?" She couldn't believe what she was hearing.

"Ha? No!" but she didn't finish her sentence...

Because Hiro immediately kissed her, even in front of Tom. He immediately pushed Hiro. Even Aya did not know what to say. He was embarrassed because Hiro never kissed her in front of other people. All she knew right now was that her face was as red as a tomato.

"Nice one! Good luck! Finally you had a girlfriend too!" Gladly said as Tom stripes on the shoulder of Hiro.

"Yeah!" Smirking, Hiro answers to him.

"Let's go!" Tom invited them.

Next came Hiro who followed his friend and he held the hand of Aya. Aya was surprised at the sudden touch. The first Hiro held her hand and they even walked together.

"What are you doing?" Aya interrupted Hiro trying to stop him from holding her hand.

Simply looked at him with a fierce expression and instead of letting go, further tightened the grip on her hand.

He also noticed that other students were whispering at them. He knew Hiro was famous and called the 'Campus Crush', so she knew many students knew him, especially the girls of the school.

Aya was embarrassed while Hiro was holding her hands, she just slumped over while walking. Looking on the ground trying to avoid the gazes of the students. She was unbearably uncomfortable right now, and thoughts were filling her mind. She noticed yet others there are some students following them.

As they walk, a group of women suddenly stands in their way. They were impatient and asked for it.

"Hi, Hiro! Ah, who is this?" she asked Hiro. Aya looked from head to toe, as if she was measuring how beautiful she is! Looking as if she was worthy of walking next to Hiro, well as if Aya cares. This situation was enough for her to die in embarrassment.

Hiro did not answer immediately and just looked coldly at the girls, before saying.

"Tsk! Get lost!" said Hiro, irritated.

Just looked at the women who asked, definitely annoyed, and also continued walking. That was a Beautiful woman too, but only ignored by Hiro.

They just keep walking and occasionally chatting with Tom, while walking. Aya was silent and downcast only. Everything in their path whispers about them, rumour, others are taking pictures of them while walking and she even noticed some of them were following them.

"Is that hiro? Wait, who is that girl with Hiro?" Most of them asked.

"Who is she?" question of majority that was still unknown.

Aya knew this would be a problem. She feared that they might bully her. She was not popular in their school, a simple student like her. Especially that she was not as beautiful as others. She quickly picked up her notebook and put it on her face. Anyone shouldn't see her.

"Waaa ... what now? Why did this Devil, that I'm his girlfriend! Tsk! Really annoying!" Aya said to herself annoyed at Hiro suddenly introducing her as his girlfriend.

"Okay Bro, let's hang out again tomorrow!" Tom's farewell.

"Okay Bro, take care on your way! See yah!" Hiro said his goodbye to his friend.

"Bye Aya!" farewell, while smiling at her.

"Bye!" She barely responds, like she doesn't want to talk with him.

And Tom walked away, going home.

As soon as Tom was gone. Hiro looked, putting his attention to her and asked.

"Where do you live? I'll accompany you home!" asks Hiro and Aya was shocked.

"What? No Thanks!" Aya refused.

"Where is it?" annoyed Hiro asked again. She won't back out just by that.

"Ah it's far away, you'll have to ride on the train." Aya reasoned, it was true though. Though she just said that to reasoned so that Hiro won't accompany her.

Hiro suddenly grabbed her and dragged her again towards the train station. As soon as they access the train, immediately they ride. Getting inside Aya thought of why Hiro did introduce her as her girlfriend, because of that just thinking of the problem it will bring, her head was already aching.

"Wait, why are you accompanying me home? I can go home alone!" Aya asked, irritated.

"No, I just want to know where you live. Is there a problem with that?" Hiro's response.

"Yes, my parents might scold me when they see me with a man. Besides, I was not allowed to have a boyfriend yet." Aya said.

Hiro looked at her before sighing deeply.

"Besides, why did you even say I'm your girlfriend? Didn't you know how troublesome that is." Aya asked.

"Why don't you like it?" Hiro asked, while emphatically staring at Aya. Aya immediately was shocked.

"Ah ah, because ..." Aya was nervous looking at Hiro, who seemed to be planning something , when he didn't like what she answered.

"Not like that ...It's because I can't have a boyfriend yet." Aya thought of a reason.

"Ah then, let's just keep a secret for now." Hiro replied.

"What?" Aya was surprised at the response of Hiro. She thought that Hiro would recover what he said that she was his girlfriend.

Aya looked down, it will certainly be a problem. A large problem.

They arrived at their destination. They started walking towards Aya's house. Again Hiro held her hand, but she immediately let go of it. Hiro Was surprised at that, and stared at her.

"Why did you let go?" Hiro asked.

"Well, they might see us." Aya replied.

"So what?" Hiro replied while looking at Aya's face and her reaction. That look again, it was overwhelming for Aya.

"Uhhm, you say it right? We'll hide it for now?" Aya reasoned again. He doesn't want Hiro to get mad.

"We aren't still in your home though." Hiro reasoned to Aya and Then suddenly held her hand again. Hiro was persistent and most of the time, Aya can't do anything against him.

"Ah, wait, let go of me for now." Aya said while trying to let go of Hiro's hand.

But still Hiro continued walking holding Aya's hand. Dragging her on the way. Aya just looked at their hand and sigh.

"We're already here, let go of me now..." Aya reason and surprisingly...

Hiro did let go of her hand as she asked.

"Where is your house here?" Hiro asked when they were already at the front of compacted houses.

"In that Incoming courtyard. Then, that red door. That's our house." Aya replied.

"Ahh..."Aya thought of walking together, but instead Hiro pulled her. She immediately gets cautious, Hiro can't go in.

"UHm, wait! You cannot go in, My mom will get mad!" Aya said.

"Is that so? Then just tell them I am your classmate." Hiro blinked his left eye. Teasing her.

"No! You're not allowed inside! Go home! Go home!" And Aya pushed Hiro away.

"Wait, how about my goodnight kiss?" Hiro asked sarcastically.

"Huh! What a goodnight Kiss?! Go home! Goodbye!" Then Aya ran into the courtyard.

Hiro just smiled looking at Aya running towards her house. He observed the place. The place was far from the luxurious mansion he lived in.

Hiro only sighed, before letting a last glance on Aya's place. Then continue to walk and go home.

Aya got home. Her mother noticed the wound on her arm with a handkerchief.

"Hi Mom, Good evening." Aya greeted her mother.

"Oh, what happened?" She pointed to Aya's arm that has a wound with white handkerchief around it. It was very noticeable, Aya held it.

"Ah, I tripped on the stairs. Hehe." Aya said.

"Hey, next time you take care! Go ahead, let's get dressed and we'll have our dinner!" She nagged.

"Yes." Aya's response and obeyed her mother.

Aya immediately dressed. She held her elbow with Hiro's handkerchief. She suddenly felt his concern for her. Hiro did really care about her.

"Does Hiro really like me? Or maybe he was just messing with me?" Aya asked herself, doubting what just happened.

"It can't be," She talked to herself thinking about it.

She then realizes how often Hiro just held her hand that day. Looking at it, it was weird. It was the first time someone held her hand and even in front of the public!

Instead becoming one of the most memorable, it was one of the most embarrassing things that ever happened to her. It was definitely troublesome!

Now that Hiro said that, what will happen next she will get bullied?

She shakes her head and tells herself to stop overthinking.

She sighed at the thought of it and after getting dressed. Immediately went out of her room to eat dinner with her mom.
