The Story Telling Takahina

Takahina today... have a story to tell. At the same time, would like readers to actually ponder about it.

..........................................................................

*All names are anonymous and have no link to whoever whatsoever*



Taka is a very average youngster. He spends average and most of the time, fully spends up his whole pay which comes monthly. He doesn't earn much, just enough to support himself and his girlfriend, Saeko who loves him very much.

However, Taka wants more. Taka has a secret. Taka doesn't really love Saeko as much, he does like Seako, but probably not as much as what Saeko thinks. The problem about Saeko is that she resides in a lower caste, CASTE 1. Meaning she has much lower education level, many family problems, many financial problems while Taka is in CASTE 2. A very naive girl one could say. She trust Taka very much but at the same time, she knows that Taka could leave anytime. But still, she tries her very best in the relationship. She knows due to the caste level, the society could never accept their relationship, and maybe even Taka himself will eventually be unable to accept it.

But anyways, it doesn't matter that much to Taka. Cause Taka is feeling alright with her now. Taka's focus isn't on Saeko, but more on how to advance to the higher level caste, like CASTE 3 and CASTE 4. Taka knows that to be able to enter the realm of the higher caste, he needs money. He needs power. Also, the girl of Taka's dreams, Ayako resides in probably CASTE 3 or CASTE 4 cause he seldoms get to see anyone of such stature. Intelligent, highly educated, gorgeous and definitely high in maintenance.

Now enter Takasuke, another person who is somewhat related to Taka. He frequently meets Taka and have discussions about the future.

Takasuke is one on the higher caste, CASTE 3. Naturally he wishes to go up to CASTE 4 and is willing to bring Taka along with him. He also has problems.

Takasuke is a little on the opposite side of Taka. Takasuke doesn't really want girls like Ayako, of course he doesn't mind, but he just wants a relationship similiar to that of Saeko and Taka. A girl's full attention and love. He has got too many relationships but it all just ended with the girl liking him for his caste level.

On this faithful day, Taka and Takasuke discussed on Ayako.

Is it that girls on a higher caste like Ayako somehow put lesser emphasis on the relationship itself and prefer to go for caste level?

Is it that girls on a lower caste like Saeko are able to devote fully on the thought of romance rather than caste level?

Is it that guys who are on the lower caste like Taka goes for girls of higher caste?

Is it that guys like Takasuke who resides in higher caste, goes for the purity of relationship? Rather than higher caste girls like Ayako?

Taka and Takasuke got depressed.

Somehow it seems that no matter what, the way through everything is still obtaining a higher caste.

"Best is getting a CASTE 4" Taka says. "A CASTE 4 means not needing to worry about anything financially. All you crave for is just looking for love, and intelligent presentable girls like Ayako."

"Wrong!" Takasuke says. "So what if you're at CASTE 4? The girls whom flocks to you are those without real love. They love you for your money. There is no true relationship. Girls like Saeko are like super big diamond gems in the higher caste."

"But if you don't like the girl? Then how? What if you only like girls in the higher caste?" Taka rebutts.

However, Takasuke attacks back rather irritatingly, "Many is just a false front, Ayako will eventually flock to another guy who is like in CASTE 5 or even CASTE 6. They can't be satisfied and have no love whatsoever."

Taka by this time, is rather disappointed to hear such stuff. He thought, is it true that Ayako is such a person? Is money really that important?

Takasuke, noticing that change of expression in Taka, tries to comfort him, "Taka you see, this world is messy, what the lower caste craves for is in the higher caste, but what the higher caste craves for is in the lower caste."

Taka however, still finds it unreasonable.

At this junction however, Saeko suddenly called Taka. Taka, instead of picking up the call, just shuts it off.

"What's that for?" Takasuke asked.

"I don't know... my mind is in a state of mess now. Should I continue to strive for Ayako, or stick onto Saeko... someone whom I won't like for long?"

Takasuke then replied, "Continue to go for CASTE 3, I believe you can do it. But ignore Ayako."

"But I can't! I love her so much!" Taka snaps back.

"You have Saeko! What the hell are you thinking about?!" Takasuke shouts back.

"ARGH I DON'T KNOW!!"

What should Taka do? At the same time what should Takasuke do? Saeko and Ayako, exactly what is so different about them that makes Taka feels so frustrated?

i find the "high in maintenance" rather funny though.. haha..
BUT..
i hope the analysis I HAVE of the characters in this story is not wrong, if not u can ignore whatever u read... here goes:
though its sounds quite common, somehow i think taka has a decision, just that he is not prepared yet.. taka has to regard Ayako as a FRIEND now, bcoz Ayako has already taken the first step. As for Saeko, it's up to Taka to make his decision.
