Ever since then, he lived his life in shadows and distance his self from people. Until an unexpected encounter made him take a step out of his shell once again, but what if stepping out of his shell means facing those people who made him feel worthless? What if stepping out of his shell means acceptance of the things that he already closes his eyes for? and what if stepping out of his shell means falling inlove to a person he didn't expect was once became a part of his past life?
Same thing keep on happening. They never stop. They never listen no matter how many times i beg. The more that i keep myself shut the more that they want to play with me. The problem is not with me i knew within myself that i didn't do anything to deserve this... Hmmm...
...that's it...
...
"I - did not do anything."
At the end of that dream i found myself in the school ground picking up my stinky dirty shoes. They always try to play with my things especially that i hardly give responses to their dirty treatment. I always believed that when i keep myself shut everything will end up peacefully. But they never stopped... The bully never stop knowing that i became a subject of a foul play.
~**~
Yuri woke up from that bad dream for the nth time. It was a scenario during his University days which keeps on hunting him even in his dream. He can barely forget the bad things and seems like nothing good happened since he can't remember any. He went to the comfort room and quickly wash his face, while looking at his reflection in the mirror he can feel his knees shaking and his hands trembling. The trauma that was sealed are starting to show some symptoms which Yuri feared the most. He tried curdling his fist...slow enough but with so much force...until his ringtone distracted him directly from his thought. He grab his phone and answer the call.
"Yuri... Ore ore!" Takaki was very hyped.
"Takaki-niisan? Did you arrived at Barcelona already?" Yuri asked.
"Just now. It's a very long trip my butt feels like it's burning and now i feel numb. Anyway, are you sure you won't need me there? I can go home as early as Tomorrow." Takaki said jokingly but he meant half of it since his parents just force him to go back. He loves Japan even more and he love his work there most especially.
"Don't worry Takaki-niisan, I'm super fine. Nothing to worry. Just enjoy your stay there. Ok it's a long distance call you have to end this call or else you'll pay double of your credit. Take care and please say hello to mom and dad for me. Jya ne~" and he hung up the phone.
And then all of a sudden he saw a box of milk on his study table. He pick it up and saw a post it note stick to it.
"What do you want to eat? Text me asap."
That was what is written on the note, Yuri for no particular reason smile after reading that. He look for Ryosuke's phone number and texted him.
From: Yuri
Subject: Free Breakfast
To: Ryosuke
"Omorice...^_^"
...
From: Ryosuke
Subject: Free Breakfast
To: Yuri
"Hai! Delivering it has an extra charge though. "
...
From: Yuri
Subject: Free Breakfast
To: Ryosuke
"W-what? A-are you serious?"
...
From: Ryosuke
Subject: Free Breakfast
To: Yuri
"Yes, but you can replace that extra charge by..."
Suddenly the door bell ring, Yuri didn't open the door yet he waited for another ring and checked who it was. He feel hesitant in opening the door because the person outside was the reckless and crazy guy named, Ryosuke Yamada. He's wearing clothes that is nearly resemble to those who delivered pizza. The air headed guy keep on peaking on the tiny glass attached to the door he didn't know that Yuri is actually trying to control his laugh while seeing every child like actions this guy does.
"Omorice delivery for Yuri Chinen." and he started playing it out.
"Shame on you" Yuri whispered with embarrassment as he poked his head lightly. He slowly open the door and pretend that he didn't saw anything, good thing he's good at concealing his laughter.
"Ohayoo guzaimasu!" Ryosuke greeted and about to enter Yuri''s apartment but he was cornered.
"Oops.. Off limit." Yuri grab the plate from Ryosuke's hand, "Thank you and Goodbye." he said.
"Chotto matte yo. Let me in!"
"Yadaa! Stay there."
"No!"
"Behave!" Yuri said as if Ryosuke was kind of a pet and he shut the door. The little one pin his back at the back door and a sudden curve was drawn on his face. He felt a lot better, now that he saw Ryosuke being the cranky guy as before but deep down he knew that he's still in deep pain he's just trying to conceal everything with a smile.
" Yuri why are you doing this? What do you want from me? Oh come on... I know what you like... This fashion magazine with a solo cover of yours truly." Ryosuke has sparks on his eyes while doing all that crazy stuff. "Or you want this books i personally edited? They're limited so i'll give you one of each..." he nailed it. The door open and with some high expectation of being able to enter inside, Ryosuke smile widely, "I knew it, you can't resist me and because of that I'll give you this magazine and this book for your kindness and hospital-"
BANG!
Yuri slammed the door for the second or maybe it's also the last time. He was left with just an empty plate. Ryosuke sat at the corner and act as if he's trying to grow some mushrooms.
~**~
On the other hand, Yuto was inside his car and being drove to the venue of his next drama. He's actually exploring his fan sites using his iphone and suddenly directed to a link where he saw that he's being bash by some haters and most of them are Ryosuke's avid fan. There are also some photos that we're edited and made him look awful. The articles are about Yuto's greediness, self-prioritization and hypocrisy. All the bad things suddenly filled up the whole site which made Yuto feel sad.
"Yuto-sama are you alright?" his driver asked.
"H-huh? Yes, i'm ok. Don't worry." Yuto denied but deep down he's hurt by the fact that this things aren't suppose to be happening. If only...
It's gonna be a busy day for Yuto so as with Ryosuke and Yuri who's now starting to contact some publishing companies that would help our little one publish his works. Ryosuke has lots of contact person which amused Yuri. He didn't thought that this cranky guy has the power of congenial. He know how to hold a smooth conversation, he's very sociable and very professional when handling some serious works. Little Yuri couldn't help but to feel outcast and helpless.
Ryosuke end the 5th conversation smoothly and crossed out the finish publishing company that they contacted. He feel quite confident that one of this companies will call back and accept the offer. While searching for another publishing company he felt that Yuri was filled with vague feelings which the older one read for some sort of reasons.
" What's wrong Yuri? " Ryosuke look at Yuri who's sitting on his working table.
"Hmmm... It's just that this thing... i mean everything...is new to me." Yuri couldn't contain the feeling that is overwhelming him. Eversince that unexpected encounter this unusual feelings didn't leave him anymore. Having someone whom he could feel at ease aside from his brother, he didn't thought this day will come.
"You don't need to worry. Leave it to me." the ichigo lover give a confident thumbs up. And that assurance to his face strucked Yuri and he can't deny that he feel secured with those words. Time feels like it suddenly slowed down, the more that Yuri try to look at Ryosuke's face the more that he's getting nervous for no reason. After that he sniffed and dry the tears that is actually filling up his eyes.
"Uwah! Baa-chan's crying! Maji?" Ryosuke jump off from his sit and started teasing the younger one.
"N-no...i-im not. It's just that... A dirt entered my eyes. I'm trying to rub it off." Yuri lied while acting as if his rubbing it but the thing is he's crying because he can't keep his feeling bottled up anymore.
"Liar." and all of a sudden Ryosuke place his hand at Yuri's head and patted him gently.
...
...
"You know, you don't have to force yourself like that. If it feels heavy, it's okay to cry."
~**~
That night Ryosuke bid goodnight to Yuri and went home to his apartment. There he saw Arioka sitting on the sofa while reading some written article from a certain website. He noticed that his best friend is engrave with his deep thoughts.
"I don't know if you're aware but different articles about you and Yuto were scattered around the social networks. They're pretty distracting, seriously." Arioka grab his cup of tea and take a sip from it. While Ryosuke grab a can of fruit juice in the refrigerator and sit beside his bestfriend.
"Just ignore those articles. Sooner or later they'll be pulled out in the sites due to our unproductive response to the issue. Just write whatever they want i don't give a damn." Ryosuke said.
"Well, yeah you're right. It won't harm you as long as you keep you're mouth shut. Anyway, seems like you're spacing out a while back? What's new?" Arioka asked who seems very interested.
"Have you ever met someone in your life who is living in a world where people escape reality - "
"Isn't that normal? Each of us have our own place to escape reality right?" Arioka affirmed.
"...i mean it's been like his home for quite long. Not just an ordinary escape."
"Huh?"
" I-i know it but this one is like a shut in to the world outside. He never socialized to other people, he's stubborn too and he's just an introvert. Being too honest would just tear him down. Since he's a very innocent and reserved person you can't help but to take things as slow as you can. You need to prove to that person that you're not just playing everything out because once you betrayed his trust or exceed to the barrier that he has set for his self, you will make a big impact either it's for good or for something worst?"
"I haven't meet one yet. But i think those kind of people are those who experienced trauma in their life or they've been into a state in their life where they felt great physical pain or mental anguish. And the possible results may count as, they keep their self shut more likely they stay away from things or people that would remind them of that experienced or would rather be in silent to keep distance." Arioka explained. "Why are you asking? Did you met someone who's like that?" he asked.
"H-huh? Hmmm...n-no... It's actually just in the book that i read a while back." Ryosuke lied but deep down he's thinking about Yuri.
"Oh i see. Interesting book. Ok then goodnight. I still have work tomorrow, sleep early Ryosuke!"
"Hai Ari-chan. Good night."
Ryosuke get off from the sofa and slide the curtain of his window on the side. He pinned his sight to Yuri's window and started reminiscing the past.
