The flashlight shone straight at Ang's face and while the motor boat pushed her boat aside to the edge. She spoke out, "Hey, are you looking for trouble or what?" .. At the same time, the big shiny light shone straight at her again (is this his way of flirting? kidding lol)
He asked, "Hideko, where are you going?"
Happy that it's Kobori, she slightly smiled.
Kobori ordered HACHI to bring the motor boat around to be next to Ang. He noticed that her boat was filled with water .. so he ordered HACHI take the boat back to the dock after hearing Ang said, "Wait, the boat might disappear."
Hachi listened to his order and jumped into death (kidding - he's a good soldier - taking order from his bossy boss KOBORI.)
Kobori turned his attention to Ang and asked, "Hey, where are you going?"
Unsure of what to say, Ang quietly mumbled, "Over there (to her dad's place).
Kobori asked with concern, "Why?"
Ang doesn't want to answered him (or dont' know what to answer). Kobori continued with the conversation, "I'm in a hurry. We almost missed each other. That's good that you turned around for me to see you. Why are you going there so late? What's it now?"
Ang went mum with embarrassment (she can't tell him that she want to go ask her dad about him and the German incident/questioning from the high authority).
She looked around to avoid his questions. He looked on and noticed that she's wet .. then he helped shift her to sit down on the boat. He quickly took off his belt and clothes (no, not that -- just his jacket) .. This startled Ang (hahaha - the night before must be rough or something to get her this nervous lmao)
Kobori put the jacket around her and said, "You're all wet. Are you cold? Let's return home first. The soldier will take care of your boat." (Awe, i wish they have another romantic boat scene again in the future or something -- this is too abrupt.)
He handed her the big light, leaving her confused.
*Romantic music -- i really love this song (actually, all the songs) .. i swear each time this song came on .. i'm remind of Bie in WHITE wifebeater by the Lumpu tree.
They arrived at the dock area.
Ang got off and turned around to say, "You .. can drop me off here so that you can return to the base right away." (she's horrible with words -- she's like the GUY version in this relationship lmao).
Without looking up, he gently answered, "I told you already .. that I'll return to talk to you. The soldier will bring the boat here and take this boat back to the base."
With no hesitation, Ang continued, "If you have something then we can talk here."
Hurt from her words, he stopped doing what he's doing and looked at her then said, "You probably don't want me to go in then," leaving Ang confused again.
He continued, "Fine." He made his way toward Ang and sat on the bench.
He said, "You haven't told me why you're going there. What's wrong?"
Ang continued to be stubborn and answered, "there's nothing."
With concern and not being able to reach out to her, Kobori sighed and look down toward his feet then looked up and said, "You still don't tell me like always ... even I, myself, have enough matters to worry about too"
Upon seeing how down he look, Ang asked nicely,"What's wrong? The investigation department called you for what?"
He answered her coldly, "Nothing."
As if she know her man by heart, she sat next to him and said, "By saying this, it means there is."
Kobori looked away and sighed deeply.
Ang slowly tried to converse, "I ... did I bother you again (trouble him)? "
He answered, "No."
With frustration, she added,"Well then .. tell me why they called you?" (I swear these two need to have some anger management classes together as a couple just like how they have them baby classes lol)
To ease her concern, he answered, "the usual meeting. There's nothing much."
Unable to get anything out of him, out of frustration, she got up and was about to take off. Kobori turned around and grabbed her by the arm and said, "Hideko, please ... i only want to know that .. you've forgave me. As for other things, I don't care. I can bear anything that will fall upon me .. except the part where you will not forgive me."
Ang tried to break away .. but he held on. He continued, "If you love someone you should know that love makes us loose our senses in about any time (conscience)"
Ang pushed him away .. and turned her head away. Without looking up, Kobori added, "You go ahead and go in. I'll wait for the soldier here so that I can take the boat back to the base. "
With frustration -- the two stood apart in madness lol Kobori tried to break the silence and walked back to sit on the same spot he sat before. He sighed deeply as he tried to massage his forehead. (He's calling for her attention lol -- do this often, please)
She took off his jacket and sat it next to him. Then slowly, she asked,"Aren't you going to go in?"
He answered, "No, you already hate me enough being like this .."
She gulped and got upset then said, "If you tell me why you're called upon ... maybe I would .. "
He sighed deeply and asked her in frustration, "Why do you want to know it? It's useless to your party (he indirectly accused her of spying)" -- bad move.
Upset for being misunderstood, Ang angrily said, "I don't want any benefits from you ... other than seeing the fact that you helped me(us) before (rao is referring to you and I as a married couple). i'm worry that you're in trouble b/c of what happened yesterday. That's all!"
Kobori's taken back upon hearing Ang say this. Ang continued, "But if you think I'm going to get something out of you then .. let's not talk at all."
With happiness, he got up and stopped her, "You use the term 'us (rao)'. Meaning you too (as in you and I), right?"
Speechless, Ang looked on. Kobori continued, "You came to look for me .. b/c you're worry about me, right?"
Out of embarrassment, she tried to break free .. but Kobori step forward and tighten his grip on her. He added, "Hideko, this is all I want. Even though I don't have all of your heart .. it is enough with just a part of you worrying about me," as he continued to smile at her. He finally told her the truth, "What you said is correct too. I was called to investigate about what had happened. The party suspects the two elders who once stole the oil from the base ... that they're related to the Thai-Free (or was it FREE THAI? not sure) party. I then told them the truth. Just that now .. you shouldn't let those two come around here otherwise the local will be in trouble. Right now, the investigators are keeping an eye on us. You must be very careful. I know what they think of you."
Ang added, "This means that you're also being monitor too, right?"
With a smile, he said, "Forget about that ..."
With concern, Ang asked, "I dragged you in trouble w/me too, right?"
He continued to smile and said, "It's alright. I told you everything already. Now you'll forgive me, right?"
Taken back, she doesn't know what to say. Kobori added,"You promise me that you'll forgive me if I tell you this."
She broke free and walked away only to get stop by his grip again (he always grab onto her like this lol)
She turned around to look at the smiling Kobori. The two lovebirds are interrupted by the soldier and his boat lmao
As an excuse to get away, Ang told him, "Your soldier is here. I'm leaving to the house."
Unable to let go of Ang's, Kobori cheerfully told her, "Didn't you invite me to go in earlier?"
Taken back upon this suggestion, Ang retorted, "You have to return to the base, isn't it? Didn't you say you have a lot of urgent works?"
He continued, "I always have urgent works. How can I tell other that I get kick out by you." lol
Teasingly frustrated, Ang lifted her hand up with the light and about to hit him .. but she couldn't do it with that smiling face in front of her lol
Kobori added, "If you still don't want me to go in, it's alright."
Unable to do anything .. while kobori teased on .. "I'm leaving then."
Kobori gave her his goodnight bow and walked toward the boat .. only to be stop by his lovely wifey's call, "Kobori."
He turned to look at her charmingly .. she grabbed his jacket and handed it to her .. "you forgot your shirt"
the two exchange a minute of skinship here lmao
He thanks her as she tried to pull her hand away from him ..
He left the dock that night happy after feeling so gloomy in the morning .. she let him go with a smile - a sign of forgiveness ..
