When Love Hurts 56

***********************

After Maki’s words everybody kept silence. After the verbal confrontation between Rika and Yossi, nobody was expecting that Gocchin could take part in the battle. Everybody there knew that she was a huge part of the problem, but interfere in the fight it was something that not even Miki would dare to do.

“She never betrayed you, Yocchan”

Gocchin then turned to Miyoshi and saw that the girl was looking at her with a death glare more typical from Mikitty than from her. Obviously, the girl had tie up everything and now understood the suddenly interest of the younger.

“It was all schemed by Erika” continued Maki “She did it the way that you hurt each other without even know it…”

“Why?” asked Ishikawa looking at her fellow Biyuuden member and fighting the tears that had began to flow from her eyes.

Erika smiled evilly. Even if Gottsan had tricked her to reveal all her plans, she was enjoying the situation.

“Because it was funny to see how you destroyed each other”

“But…, I trusted you…”

“And that’s why it was so easy. You felt so insecure of yourself that you trust me more than your love. It was so easy to use you…”

“How can you be so cold blooded?”

Miki had kept silence until then but with every single word that Erika said her blood boils more and more. But, someway, she managed to control her rage and made that question instead of using her fists as usually.

“They deserve it” answer Erika coldly “They had to feel the same pain that Goto-san was feeling because of them… But then, you had to appear and make things difficult. It took me off guard. You’d supposed to be busy with Ayaya but it seems that our little princess didn’t know how to keep you at her side”

“That’s none of your business!” shouted Aya.

“Yes, it is! It’s your fault that those two ended together. And you are so stupid that didn’t even know how to take advantage of every opportunity that Rika gave to you. Someone smarter had brought Fujimoto to bed at the first chance…”

This time, Miki made honour to her reputation and let her fist crash against Erika’s jaw. Nobody there was surprised. No one can mess with Ayaya without facing Fujimoto’s rage after. But, even with a tiny thread of blood running from her lower lip, Erika didn’t lose her smile.

“There’s no way you can hurt me” she said looking at Miki with a defiant glare and cleaning the mess with her sleeve “This? This will be just a remain of my victory”

Miki was ready to attack again when a strong hand took her by the wrist and stopped her.

“That’s enough, Miki-chan” said a calm voice behind her. Recognizing the voice, Fujimoto relaxed her arm and let the older woman to lower it “I’ll take charge of her”

Nakazawa’s presence was the only thing that made Miyoshi’s smile drop from her face.

“You” said Yuko firmly “Come with me”

If there was something scarier than an angry Yuko Nakazawa it was a calmly angry Yuko Nakazawa. Nobody knew how she could react and that’s why any of the girls said nothing when Erika and she disappeared.

It wasn’t until after a few minutes of silence that Maki dared to look at her friend. Ishikawa had collapsed in the ground crying, but Yossi was there, standing in the same place where she had been from the start with the look lost in the nothing. Gocchin didn’t need to see tears to know how the truth had devastated Hitomi’s soul at the extreme that she didn’t even have strength to cry.

Then she saw Fujimoto, who had begun to walk towards Yossi, and stopped her.

“Not now, Miki” said Maki leaving a hand on the older’s shoulder “They need to be alone”

Miki looked at Yossi and then turned again to Gocchin and nodded. She understood, as the rest of the girls, that they couldn’t do anything to help, just wait.
