Love By A Shove - Irene

Once upon a time in Spira, Yazoo, a handsome but somehow geeky but kind-of-tough guy, was on his way to a supermarket called Geostigma (G-O). He had long and white silky hair, black cloak and wavy pants for his body ornaments.
As he reached G-O, he went through his shopping list…
“Right, what I need are some carrots and cabbages from the veggies area, some fresh salmon and squids for my sushi dinner and also soft drinks and green tea leaves for guests…”
BANG!
“OUCH! Hey four eyes, don’t you have eyes?” A girl that had a *HOT* body was knocked down by the push of Yazoo’s strong shoulders.
“I’m sorry, you alright?”
“Yeah, help me up right now!”
Coincidentally, a handsome guy with spiky silver hair popped out of nowhere and asked whether the girl that was knocked down by Yazoo was alright or not.
“Jenova! Are you alright… Hey you, what’re you freakin’ doing here?”
“Sorry, I knock- YOU! You were the one who broke my arm 2 years ago! You’re Loz aren’t ya?!”
“What if I am? This is my girl; you knocked her down did ya, specs?”
“It wasn’t on purpose, though it’ll be better if it was you…”
With a furious face, Loz grabbed Yazoo’s collar, “If you ever, ever, dare to show your face in front of me and my girl again, you will hope to never experience a day in this world again!”
“Whatever, freak…”

A few days later, Jenova, the beautiful young lady with dark brown hair with blonde highlights, was waiting for Loz to pop up in the spot where they were supposed to meet for a date. Out of nowhere…
“Hey, what’re you doing?!”
     “… Follow me…”
Jenova followed the guy, expecting that it will be a surprise from Loz. But it turned out to be…
“LET GO OF ME!”
…a rapist.


In another area but close to the where Jenova was, Yazoo was whistling his way to a bookstore. Then he heard someone screaming in the nearby park. It was at night, so it was kind of hard to see anything, because there were no lampposts in an isolated park like that. He looked and looked, until he found a shadow moving so frantically and he ran over with the thought of helping.
“Don’t just stand there! I need hel-UMPH!”
…
*SILENCE*
Yazoo squinted and looked for any signs of gesture, as he was checking the area with his hands forward…
“Oh, skin!” Yazoo exclaimed as he touch a very soft and smooth material.
“Umhh… Hurp mmem…”
“Help me?”
He took out his cell phone and shone it towards the mumbling.
“Who are you?”
“Kadaj… (Hey, why am I introducing myself?) Why would you ask that?”
“Get your hands of her!”
“Make me…”
“You’re raping her, right?”
“Get away!” He kicked Yazoo out of the way and ran off carrying Jenova.
“GET BACK HERE YOU COWARD! IF YOU WANT HER, STEP OVER MY DEAD BODY FIRST!!!”
Yazoo ran and ran after Kadaj. He caught up with them because Kadaj can’t stand carrying Jenova anymore.
DUAK!
“Hosh… Hosh…”
A punch from Kadaj’s hand went flying onto Yazoo’s cheek.
“Argh… You wanna fight?”
DUAK!
Yazoo avenged himself.
“GUARGH!...” Kadaj wiped his lips from the blood he coughed out. From Kadaj’s pocket, a knife suddenly appeared in his hand.
“Ehahahaha… You won’t get away from me…” Kadaj hissed with an evil laugh…
“HE’S A FREAK!” Jenova screamed.
“Stay back, Jenova, I’ll protect you till the end of my life…” Yazoo said as he was backing away from Kadaj.
“HEEAH!!!” exclaimed Kadaj as he was pointing his blade and running towards Yazoo.
HIIAAT! Yazoo stopped Kadaj’s hand with his palm by hitting onto Kadaj’s hand before Kadaj’s blade reached him.
“What… are you…” Kadaj was so furious because he missed his attack.
“There’s no going back now, slowpoke!” Yazoo raised his clenched fist and knocked Kadaj on his cheek and sent him away for about 3 metres.
“Cih…” Kadaj ran away with his hands on his face, wishing that Yazoo didn’t spoil his beautiful face (his self-proclaimed opinion).
*     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     
“Jenova, are you alright?” Yazoo asked her cautiously, avoiding an emotional breakout from being frightened of a tragedy by being nearly raped.
“Y-yeah… I’m fine… Thanks for saving me…”
“Really? Do you want some covering a bit?” (Her clothes were ripped of some parts.)
“That’d be great, but I can’t really get some now…”
“You can have my skirt…”
“O-okay, thanks…” (Skirt? Isn’t it supposed to be shirt?)
Just as Yazoo was taking off his shirt, a man suddenly shouted out:
“JENOVA, where are you?”
“Here, Loz! HERE!!!!!!”
Loz came running and spotted that Jenova’s clothes were ripped off some parts and was likely to be raped by Yazoo, who was beside her.
“Yazoo…CURSE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Wha- wait!!!”
BAK!!!
DUASH!!!
BANG!!!
JEDUAK!!!
“Lozzy, stop!!! Don’t you hit that man!!!”
“Oh, now you’re defending him, witch?!”
“GET AWAY FROM HIM!” Jenova was screaming so loudly that it kind of shocked Loz up.
“Urgh… What the hell were you doing?” Yazoo was so fed up that he kicked right on Loz’s stomach until he coughed blood. The stains dripped to his shirt like a blood thirsty man who had his job done.
“Urgh… Dang…”
“It was your fault that you acted without thinking,” Jenova said to Loz.
“What did I do?”
“You thought you were saving me from a rapist, but Yazoo was the one scaring the guts of the rapist before you came!”
“Rea-really?”
“Yes”
“I’m…sorry…”
“You should be. Plus, you were late for our date… I cannot stand you anymore… You’re too rough and always acted without thinking. You always think of fighting and never want to forgive anyone. You even nearly killed my saver if it wasn’t for me who stopped you! You should learn self – control!”
“I’m sorry…”
“I want to break up…” *sobs* Jenova ran to Yazoo and slumped herself onto him crying.
“GET OFF-, I… okay, fine… I’ll let you go… but don’t you ever try to defend him again in front of me, because I can’t stand the burning fire inside me that hurts when you do so,” Loz said as his face reddening.
“It means you’re still in love with her…” Yazoo suddenly said that to make a joke…
“Cuih… Whatever…”

“Yazoo, I’m sorry for what my boyfriend did to you…”
“Ex – boyfriend…”
“Yes…erhm, I, uh, um…”
“WO-WOULD YOU BE MY GIRLFRIEND?” Yazoo shouted out the words that made Jenova jumped.
“That’s-, oh, I, I’d love to…”
“Let’s go then…”
“O-okay…”
They kissed…
And they lived happily ever after, because that’s probably what (a girl) everybody wants…
