Yamapi's birthday!

“Linda, where are you going?” Yuki asked when she saw Linda dressed up nicely.

Linda tilted her head and grinned. “Hitmitsu,” she answered.

Yuki rolled her eyes. “Himitsu, your head! It’s Yamapi’s birthday, isn’t it?” she replied.

Linda laughed. “You knew yet you ask. That pesky guy not meeting you today? The two of two are so sweet that I could get diabetes!” Linda teased them.

Yuki blushed. “Yeah, yeah. Just wait till you and Yamapi are together. Then we’ll see which couple is the most sweetest.” Yuki retorted.

Linda leaned nearer to Yuki, placing her head on Yuki’s shoulder. “You will win hands down,” Linda replied, giving a wet kiss on Yuki’s cheek.

“Eww…Linda Tegoshi!” Yuki exclaimed and threw a pillow at her but missed as Linda had run out of the door.

“I’ll get her next time. Fancy kissing me!” Yuki grumbled, wiping the kiss off her cheek.

Linda waited downstairs for Yamapi. She was excited to see his reaction when he saw the cake. “Honk!” Yamapi waved from his car.

Linda went in. “Konnichiwa!” she chirped.

Yamapi greeted her and put the car in gear and drove off without further ado. “So, where are we going?” Linda asked.

Yamapi smiled. “Hmm… To my special place,” he answered mysteriously.

An hour drive later, Linda found herself by the seaside in Chiba. “Wow! This is so beautiful!” she exclaimed when she saw the waves crashing onto the sea and the seagulls flying and chirping overhead.

Yamapi smiled. He took her hand and led her to a private place. She was surprised to see a table for two, complete with candles on the beach. It was pretty secluded place so Yamapi need not worry about paparazzi taking photos of them. “Have a seat, my lady,” Yamapi replied, pulling a chair out for her.

“Arigato,” she smiled and looked around in amazement.

“Sa, do you like it?” he asked.

“Yes! But today is your birthday, not mine. You did all this, yourself?” she asked.

“Yup! I did this all for you. I want to celebrate my birthday with someone special to me. Dakara, I want this to be memorable for you and me,” Yamapi replied.

Yamapi had ordered a few dishes and they started eating. At the end of the meal, Yamapi asked her where does she want to go after this. Linda fidgeted in her seat nervously. She wanted to bring out the cake but she was shy. “Linda-chan? Doshitan no?” he asked.

“Anou, umm…I’ve made you something,” she mumbled.

“Nani? I can’t hear you,” Yamapi said.

Linda took a box that she had been holding onto and put it on the table. Yamapi watched quietly. As soon as she opened the box, Yamapi’s eyes widened. “A cake! You made it?” he asked.

Linda nodded shyly. “Arigato! I love it!” Yamapi grinned excitedly.

“Chotto matte! Make a wish before you cut it,” Linda stopped him from cutting it immediately.

“Oh ok,” he replied and closed his eyes.

A few moments later, he opened his eyes and cut the cake. “What id you wish for?” Linda asked curiously.

“You will know it soon,” Yamapi answered mysteriously.

Linda looked at him, questioningly. “Come on, let’s eat the cake you bake for me,” he suggested.

It was almost reaching eight pm when they finished the cake and talk. Unknown to them, someone was watching quietly a few meters away. “Kuso! These mosquitoes really bite!” he replied angrily, swatting the mosquitoes who bit him.

“Let’s go,” Yamapi replied.

“Where?” Linda asked.

“Just to take a walk down the beach,” he suggested.

“Ok!” Linda nodded.

While they were enjoying the walk, Yamapi held her hand. Linda looked at him surprised that she stopped and looked at him. Yamapi smiled at her. He slowly bent down to her and kissed her passionately on the lips, taking her by surprise.

Linda did not push or refuse the kiss. Instead, she felt warm and secure .in his embrace. When they pulled away, Yamapi smiled at her. “This is what I wished for,” he whispered.

Linda did not reply. Deep in her heart, she felt unsure. Her heart was in confusion. Yamapi had done something in her heart, which she did not know. She looked at him and just smiled, unsure of what to reply.

A few meters away, someone’s heart broke. “This cannot be happening,” he muttered to himself, shocked to see the couple kissed.
