Kimono - Japan

                                    

                                          
You were walking on the streets of Japan. You decided to pay a visit to Kiku's country. You're very interested in his culture , history and tradition. It was night time now. While you were still walking , you spotted a kimono. It's a light blue one with interesting designs. 
                          
Too bad you don't have much money to pay for it.
                          
You sighed and walked away. You thought about the kimono. It's too pretty and beautiful. How you wish you can buy it.
                          
You kept thinking about the kimono until you suddenly bumped into someone. You fell down , your sketch book slipping away from your hands.
                          
"Gomennasai! Are you arr- (name)-san?"
                          
You looked up to see your friend, Kiku looking back at you worriedly. You smiled nervously. Kiku helped you got up , took your sketch book and handed it back to you , mumbling a sorry again.
                          
"Oh , it's okay. I'm alright , Kiku. I was just lost in thought and I suddenly bumped into you , that's all. No biggie. I should be the one to say sorry." you smiled.
                          
"Werr , I wourd not say it is your fault. What are you doing here anyway , (name)-san?" Kiku asked.
                          
" I'm just visiting , that's all! I'm just interested about your country. It's really interesting!" you complimented , making him smiled.
                          
" I am grad you think so , (name)-san. But , it's kinda rate now. Do you have a prace to stay? If you don't , then you can come to my house , if that's what you rike."
                          
"I don't want to , you know , trouble you and all but-"
                          
"You wirr not , (name)-san. In fact , sometimes I arways feer arone. I need a friend anyway. I-I'm not forcing you to stay at my prace! It's according to your decision."
                          
You thought for a moment. "Hm....I dont have any friends coming with me either. And it's just the both of us. Sure , why not. I'll stay at your place for a while."

It was now 11:00p.m. You were in a bedroom just beside Kiku's. You had dinner two hours ago with the Japanese man and now he's sleeping leaving you the only one awake.
                          
You remembered the kimono you saw just now perfectly so you decided to sketch it. You were busy minding your own business until you heard a loud thunder. You jumped and dropped your drawing.
                          
You heard a tapping noise it began to rain heavily. You remembered you heard Arthur saying he once visited his house and he saw a creature. 
                          
"I'm going to piss my pants thinking about that," 
                          
You shuddered thinking about it. How can Kiku live here without feeling scared. You wish you knew. You heard a loud thunder again and you started to take your sketch book and ran towards Kiku's room and opened it.
                          
Kiku rubbed his eyes and looked at you. "Is there something wrong , (name)-san?" he asked , concerned.
                          
"Uh , it's raining and I kinda heard a-" a tapping noise was heard again. "a t-ta-tapping...noise and I can't sleep so , you know....," you looked away.
                          
"Are you scared?" he asked. You nodded your head and he chuckled.
                          
"It's not funny! E-Everybody has a weakness after all." you crossed your arms. He smiled and pat on the bed (that interesting looking thin-sized single bed you see). You lay down beside him , still holding your sketching book.
                          
Kiku noticed it and scooted a little closer to look at it. "What is that , (name)-san?" he asked , curious.
                          
" Oh , this? Just a few sketches I did. Nothing much. Not interesting." you answered.
                          
"I thought you said everything is interesting. May I see your drawing?" he asked. "I wirr not raugh."
                          
You hesitated for a while and gave him your sketching book. He got up and switched on the lights. He sat back down and began to flipped the drawings and observed them. You drew many interesting places and Kiku saw the half kimono you saw just now.
                          
"I haven't finish the kimono. I just started half an hour ago." you stated. Kiku nodded and kept his gaze longer at the kimono.
                          
"It's rearry a beautifur drawing." he complimented. "Every sketches you did rooks rivery. Even though you sketch 1/2 of the kimono , it still rooks wonderfur."
                          
"Th-Thanks , Kiku." you smiled nervously. "I didn't design it though. I just saw it at the town just now. I can't afford it , I don't have much money but that's okay! Oh , you're probably sleepy. Sorry for waking you up , I feel bad right now," you frowned. Kiku laughed a little.
                          
"It's okay , (name)-san. I don't feer that sleepy anyway."
                          
"Really? My eyes feel a little droopy. But I just want to talk to you all night. I've never talk to anyone this long. It feels so fun! And amazing and stuff." you smiled widely, making Kiku smiled at you too.
                          
"That's nice to know," he said. "But you need your sleep. It's probabry armost midnight now."
                          
You nodded your head and closed your eyes , darkness taking over you. Kiku watched as you sleep , giving you a kiss on the forehead , before pulling you to his arms making you feel safe.

A few days passed and today you are at the airport , saying goodbye to Kiku.
                          
"Thanks for everything , Kiku. I'll visit you again soon. And I'll bring presents from my country next time!" you smiled.
                          
"Arright , (name)-san. Wait , I have something to give you," he took the kimono you sketched a few days ago from his bag he was carrying. It was exactly the kimono you saw , but it was nicely wrapped with a ribbon.
                          
"H-How did you-"
                          
"I saw it yesterday when I was out buying groceries and I saw it. I instantry remembered the kimono you sketched so I bought it for you." he stated. You hugged him tightly and you took it. You had tears in your eyes and you said 'thank you' many times.
                          
"Oh , I have a present too!" you said. You leaned in and kissed him on the lips. You pulled away and saw Kiku froze. You just laughed at him.
                          
"W-Was th-that con-considered a-a-a confession?" he stammered. You shrugged in response. "Maybe," you said.
                          
"I-I-I love you t-too....?"
                          
"Awesome!" you laughed again.
