"It's been a long time?"
Tomoya invites Yuko to stop by for a while at a restaurant. Yuko refused when offered lunch, drinking a glass of warm tea is enough to make Yuko full. Yuko's appetite is lost when she comes face to face with the man she once refused to marry.
"Right, you've changed a lot. Especially in terms of appearance, you fit perfectly with a haircut like that Tomoya" Praised Yuko.
Early on meeting him, Tomoya is just a simple, kind-hearted man. He's handsome without the need to preen. Now Tomoya is a handsome, well-established adult man. Yuko can judge from the clothes and accessories that are being worn. Yuko is unaware, Tomoya is the head of the company founded by Takahiro.
"Oh yeah? You're overreacting, Yuko" Tomoya flattered. Yuko is always good at making people soar.
Tomoya was a fan of Yuko's work while still actively writing. He went to the publisher's office only to ask for his signature and to meet the author face to face. The seed of love begins to grow. Yuko is just a playgirl who is easily impressed with a playboy like Tomoya.
Tomoya used to work as an IT manager at a retail company, a broken home boy who lived apart by his family after his father remarried. The story of his life is similar to the story of Yuko, so there is a match between them even though Yuko does not feel that way.
"What are you doing in Tokyo? Are you going to write again?" tomoya sipped black coffee in front of him. "Your warm tea has been turned into cold tea, Yuko" he added. Yuko hasn't even drank that tea in a single drop.
"No, I'm just visiting relatives." Yuko lies because she is still too awkward, after all, she is embarrassed if she has to tell the true circumstances to the person whose incident is a stranger. If Eriko doesn't make an appointment with the hostess. It would be better if Eriko alone served this slengean man.
"How are you?" Tomoya forgot to ask about this at the beginning. Tomoya always pulls a smile from his lips so that Yuko does not need to feel clumsy like that. "Hoaah, I'm glad to see you again, ex!" teasing Tomoya joking.
"I'm good, how about you?" Yuko grinned stiffly.
Tomoya is the man who spoils Yuko the most in everything, he does not hesitate to give everything he has if Yuko becomes his wife. That is why, Tomoya is very disappointed when his proposal is rejected just because Yuko still wants to focus on pursuing a career. The reason for breaking up is the most popular among women.
Yuko was actually made to be careless about Tomoya's behavior that was too aggressive and protective. It was almost the same as Takeshi. Connecting with Tomoya makes Yuko not free to do as she wants. Wherever Tomoya always tailed, had invited Yuko to live together but Yuko did not want to. In any case, Yuko still needs privacy in running her life as a writer.
"Since you left me, my condition has not been all right." he sighed. "We may already have grandchildren if we were married" his grunts exaggerated.
"That was almost nine years ago." Yuko. " I don't want to look back anymore."
"Oh.okay, then look at the one in front of you right now." Tomoya. " I am your future !" Tomoya managed to reverse Yuko's words.
Five months after the break up, Yuko meets Takahiro at a seminar. Yuko does not know, Tomoya is actually also present at the event, watching Yuko arguing fiercely with Takahiro. Thanks to Ruri's help, Tomoya intends to meet Yuko after the seminar. The goal is to get Yuko back in touch, however, the action is hindered by Takahiro who has intercepted Yuko first at the auditorium exit.
Tomoya feels lied to, the reason for his career is just a booze. She is heartbroken to know Yuko is close to Takahiro even plans to marry a man who is none other than her own half sister's fiancee. Nanami Natsuki.
"You haven't changed at all?" Yuko Gumam. Tomoya's signature combalan is no longer working.
"Yes, my feelings for you haven't changed either." Tomoya is getting frontal to Yuko's heart. There was no other purpose, other than wanting to grab her attention again.
"Enough Tomoya, I'm joking." Yuko started to fret over nausea. Yuko avoids her ex this one the most. Damn, now he's stuck here and forced to drink a glass of warm tea with the concerned. Outside the sky turns cloudy, Yuko must hurry before the rain holds her back from here.
" Thank you for the warm tea"
Yuko leaves in a hurry to ignore Tomoya's call to ban him from leaving.
Yuko continued to race with the rain that began to fall. Rain in the middle of summer is common in Japan. As strong as running, heavy rain has managed to climb the earth. Yuko is trapped in the rain, alone standing on the edge of a closed shop.
Yuko dislikes dealing with the past, including her love story. During her own life, it was not once or twice that Yuko was contacted by her ex. Most of them ask Yuko to re-establish a relationship, some even insult her prostitute for being rejected.
Yuko was really careless to live alone without the assistance of the man by her side. Eriko makes Yuko's eyes open that all this time she still loves the man very much.
Tomoya felt that way. Tomoya does not want to get married even though many women come close.
Since his proposal was rejected, Tomoya has not done the same deed again to other women. Only Yuko, the woman he wants Tomoya to be.
Tomoya apparently did not stay silent, he left shortly after leaving a pile of cash on the table. Tomoya searches for Yuko until she is drenched. Once met, Tomoya just grabbed Yuko and landed her lips on the opposite sex in front of her.
Yuko is not happy to be kissed arriving, especially to people she does not love. A hard slap on the cheek received Tomoya as his lips slipped off.
"Stay away from me! " snapping Yuko annoyed. The smell of coffee from Tomoya's lips was still felt when Yuko was about to wipe her lips with her palm.
"Yuko, I can't forget you !" Panting Tomoya painstakingly said what Yuko had not yet heard. "I still love you."
Yuko reacted strongly to Tomoya's confession. In the slightest he did not want to give Tomoya any hope. Tomoya grabs Yuko's hand, clasping with confidence.
"Please, come back to me! "
Yuko admitted, she used to be cruel to Tomoya. With care, Yuko restricts the association of Tomoya, especially with women. He willingly decides on his girlfriend's boyfriend before Yuko accepts his love. Tomoya is obedient, as he already has the intention to have a serious relationship with Yuko. When hope is already at the top, Yuko can destroy it to the surface.
"Whatever the pain, I'm ready to bear. I can be with you."
Yuko weakens, begins to admit what she has done in the past is wrong, Tomoya does not hate her in the slightest. Tomoya just hates Takahiro. Not only business but also matters of the heart. Takahiro is the only man who managed to beat Yuko up to be willing to conceive the son of the man. Things Tomoya can't get from Yuko. Tomoya does not accept Yuko giving birth to a child of a person he hates.
"I'm not a good woman either, Tomoya. You can get more from me." Reject the delicate Yuko.
"Nobody's better than Yuko. I've prepared everything so that you'll be happy to live with me." Both of his hands were still tied to Yuko's shoulder. Talk while holding back emotions.
"No, I can't" Yuko sternly denied Tomoya's touch. With a heavy heart he must be honest with his own feelings, even though he cannot convey it directly to the person in question.
"I still love Takahiro to this day."
