"Why are we here again?" Takes.h.i.+ stares at the drink in Iori's hand . It's afternoon and she's already drinking . Is this the day 1 toward her turning into an alcoholic woman? 

Haru shakes his head and tells him, "Iori has gone insane . " Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .

"I am not insane . " Iori gulps down the drink . "I am mourning the death of my first love . "

"Isn't your mourning a little late?" Haru questions her with a laugh . "You were fine last night . At the wedding reception without the groom and the bride, you ate to your heart content shamelessly . You went home and slept peacefully . "

"How do you know that I slept peacefully?" Iori grimaces at him . "I had a nightmare that I turned into an old woman with white hair and I was still single . "

"That dream is likely to come true . " Takes.h.i.+ scowls at her . "A woman with unreal expectations of love will end up alone like that . "

"Takes.h.i.+, how many times have I told you?" Iori pours another drink in the gla.s.s . "I liked your brother, but I couldn't even find the courage to confess to him . "

Haru clicks his tongue, annoyed . "Iori, you always knew that his brother would never see you like that . " 

"I know, but I am still unhappy that my crush got married . " Iori pouts at him . "You bawled for 3 days when your favorite teacher got married during high school . "

Haru's expression turns heartbroken . "My first love . . . Why did you remind me of her? It was so hard to forget her . "

"Now, you understand . " Iori pushes her full gla.s.s toward him . "Takes.h.i.+ is the only one who hasn't fallen for anyone yet . His heart is made of stone . I am sure that he is incapable of falling in love . "

But, Haru isn't listening . He's punching the table and crying for his first love who got married two years ago . Takes.h.i.+ gazes at Iori, fl.u.s.tered .  

After an hour, Haru and Iori are singing a sad love song melodramatically .  "You went away . . . leaving only sweet memories of our time together . . . I live with only these memories . . . wanting to hold you again . . . I crave . . . "

Takes.h.i.+ takes a drink in frustration .

"I need to pee . " Haru raises his pinkie finger . He unsteadily runs toward the bathroom . Iori's face is pressing against the table to cool off . Her brain is fuzzy .

She suddenly leans on Takes.h.i.+ and asks him, "Takes.h.i.+, is your brother really married?"

"Yes . " He doesn't look at her and drinks . "You were there at his wedding . "

Slightly tipsy, she yells at the people in the pub, "My first love got married . Everyone, my first love got married . Does anyone want to date me? I will date anyone who can take my breath away . "

Takes.h.i.+ grabs her mouth and kisses her, tasting the alcohol inside her mouth with his tongue . When she tries to push him away, he grabs the back of her head and kisses her deeper . The intense kiss is wet and furious, containing years of frustration and resentment, burns away her drunkenness and drowns her with his flames of love . When he lets her go, her lips are red and swollen . She pants for air for a good minute before turning to face him . She only gets the glimpse of his back before he leaves .
