59 Do You Like Me?

In the next morning, Risa wakes up when the sunray beams her face. She groans a bit, turns to the other way and slowly opens her eyes.

"Morning." Shou kisses her cheek when she turns around.

"Mmm.."

"Risa..what is your planning after this?" He retrieves her small portion of her hair and plays with it with his finger

"What do you mean? I will return back this weekend. So if you can send me back today it'd be nice though." She stops him from playing her hair and flip the comforter. Sit up and find her robe.

Shou did not reply instantly to her, he smiles seeing her bare back body. "We'll arrive at our destination in four or five more hours. How about if we having our breakfast first?"

Tie up her satin robe, she nods her head. "Okay." She went to the bathroom and take a shower.

Lucky that all her dress and need is prepared by Shou's servant before they come aboard and at least she had clothes to put on.

Half an hour later, both of them walk to the dining area. They seat at the table beside the glass window where they can see a vast ocean and a nice morning view.

They eat their breakfast and talk about a random topic before a sexy woman approaching them.

"Good Morning Shou-kun." Natalia, his current girlfriend wish him a morning with a bright smile on her face.

"Nat, morning. What are you doing here?" He turns to look at her with a bit smile. Risa in front of him also turns to look at the woman beside their table.

"Well, I heard you were coming here yesterday. I board this cruise to find you, of course. But I couldn't find you yesterday. Not until now. You know I've been missing you. Hm?" She without asking any permission from both of them immediately pull the chair beside Shou and sit there.

"I come quite late yesterday. What's the matter that you want until you find me here? It's not that just you missing me, right? He continues to eat while Risa already put down her cutlery.

Run her finger to his arm, she said with a spoiled voice. "Aww…baby...I want to meet you. It's been quite some time since last I saw you. Besides, I want to go some shopping with you."

"That..can be done after I return, right?"

"Hmm…" She pouted a bit and she diverts her eyes to the woman in front of them.

"Baby, who is she?" She asks.

Risa smiles to her and diverts her eyes to Shou after that. Waiting for his reply to his girlfriend.

"She's my fiance," Shou said without looking at Natalia.

Gasp a bit, she immediately turns to look at Shou again. "You're kidding right?"

"No, I'm not."

"Then..then..what about me?" She looks at both of them. Risa just smirks a bit before she sips her orange juice.

"Well, you know what kind of man I am before we date, right?"

"Shou…what that I'm lack to be your future wife? I am clearly beautiful than her. More mature than her. We are compatible when we're together. After all, you've been with me longer than any of your exes before."

"You're not lack anything. Instead, what you said is true. You're more beautiful than I am, your body..phew..so much fake than your original..yup, you both are compatible but Miss...urm, what was your name again? Natalia? the only thing that you don't have is a brain. You know well what kind of man is he, why'd you think he will be loyal to you? Or do you think that you actually able to change him to be faithful to you? Wow..so amusing." Risa said with a mocking tone.

Gritting her teeth, she grabs Shou's juice and splashes on her.

Splash!

All the eyes in the dining hall turned to look at their table. Shou was a bit shocked by what Natalia doing. He immediately wants to stand up, but Risa calmly said to her to sit back.

All of the gazes also turn back to it before.

"Seems like you can't accept the truth, huh? Well, I don't care anyway. I leave both of you to settle this matter alone." She wipes her wet face using a clean cloth before she put it down on the table.

Standing up, she looks at Shou with a serious face. "Shou, I hope this kind of thing did not happen again in future..or…don't you ever think you can use me as you like again." Once she was done saying that, she leaves the dining hall and return back to the room. To cleaning her body and change her attire.

"Urgh, why do I have to deal with a bitch early in the morning?" She grunting.

...

Once Risa leaves the dining hall, he with a serious, cold tone said to Natalia.

"Natalia, do not appear in front of me again. We are over. If you insist, you'll get your consequence. Don't say I didn't warn you."

Trembling, she lowered her head and leave him after that. She knows if Shou uses that tone, he really meant it. If not, she might end up in a grave or worst, in deep down the sea, right now.

Inside her heart, she couldn't help but think about that girl. How important is she to him that make him use that tone? She knew he was a playboy. Even if he's engaged, he still can replace her like how he replaces his girlfriend. But why is he keeping her? Why with only a word from her can makes him change like that? All of the thought, she could only ask inwardly and no further action she can make.

Shou sighing. He wipes his mouth using a white clean cloth and returns back to his room.

Open the room, he can see Risa just done changing her clothes. Her hair is a bit wet.

"I'm sorry. It was out of control." He apologizes to her.

Risa did not say anything at all nor show any expression to him. She bottles up everything inside her heart.

After she brushes her hair, she took her phone with earphone, sunblock cream, sunglasses, and some money to her pocket before she leaves the room.

Shou follows her from behind. "Hey, are you mad?"

Silent. She continues to the open dock. Where there are a large pool and a lot of people enjoying sunbathing and swimming.

She finds a beach bench and put on sunblock cream to her skin before she put a big rounded sunglasses on her eyes. She lay on the bench and enjoying the sunbathing.

Shou at her side, sighing a bit. "Risa..talk to me."

Risa still ignoring him as she took out her phone and connect it with her earphone before she put her earphone on her ears.

Knowing that she didn't want to talk to him, he bends his body and pulls one of the earphones before he whispers to her.

"Fine if you're not talking to me. But, don't blame me if I'm not sending you back today."

Staring right into his eyes, she pushes him a bit. "Whatever."

"That's my girl." He kisses her on the lips before he left her to have her time alone. He is actually going to change his clothes.

Once he was away, she knocks her head a few time using her hand. "Urgh!! Risa..why did you think he loves you just because he always treats you nicely on the bed?!" She mumbling with a slow voice.

Rest her head a little, she starts remembering the memory of her and him a few years ago.

…

"Risa-sama, this is Akatsuki Shou. He will be your fiance from now on." Mr. Takashi said gently to her.

She looks at the boy in front of her without blinking. That boy seems a bit older than her. That time, she still doesn't understand about 'Fiance'. She thought it just a nickname for a friend.

In that time, both of them are not like they are right now. Both of them play together like a real friend. He always treats her nicely. Every time she returns to Tokyo, she would go and stay the night at Akatsuki's resident.

Shou always gifts her with toys and bears. It is still like that until she turns 16. Shou already 22 years old that time.

Like always, she went to Akatsuki's mansion. But that time, Shou's parent is not at home. They had some matter in overseas.

Nothing happens at first as he treats her like usual. Talking and listening to her story and life at Calestical City.

While she was talking, suddenly Shou touches her cheek and make her turn to him.

"Risa..do you like me?" He asks out of blue.

Blushed, she nods her head. Yes, she was in love with him for long ago.

Quite happy with her confession, he pulls her closer and tilts his head a little.

He kisses her lips for the first time and savors the sweet plump lips of hers.

It is the night where she willingly gives her 'first time' to him, and so is he.
