Summary: Yuri lost his reasons to open new doors after an incident during his last year in the University. After that incident he changed. 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?
Two weeks after that incident Ryosuke's schedule became quite hectic. He have new biographies to edit and new projects for a fashion show that is scheduled 2 weeks from now. He go to work early and sleep late at night. He was too pre-occupied by work that's why he's not getting enough rest. Finally, his most awaited day off arrived. Arioka went home late that's why he's still sleeping in his room while Ryosuke woke up fresh and energize after a long and peaceful sleep. He slide the curtain on the side and pinned his gaze at that certain window located at the neighbourhood apartment building.
"Yosha! Let's do this!" while pointing at that window. Ryosuke put on his shoes and went out of the apartment without any second thought. There's only one person that is occupying his mind that time and that's Yuri. After few minutes he's already infront of his door. He is about to press the door bell button when the door suddenly open accompanied by the person he's exactly looking for. Their eyes were wide open as they meet, both of them were in a big surprised for that unexpected moment.
"H-huh?"
"Yuri-"
Then after a few seconds both of them snapped and realized what's happening. "Yuri can we talk?" Yuri immediately close the door while Ryosuke was left there outside. Since the ichigo lover doesn't want to surrender he thought of an idea that will definitely annoy the little one. He started pressing the door bell button continuously just to annoy the hell out of Yuri.
"Yuri please let's talk even just an hour or 30 minutes or even just..."
The door slightly open, "5 minutes." Yuri said while having that unpleasant look at Ryosuke. "Your time starts now." he said
"Anou..hmm..." - " Well, did you get some weird text message few weeks ago? I was attacked by an anti-fan and snatched my phone. He invaded my private life and uploaded photos and they're all over the internet now. I was injured for running after that snatcher-" Ryosuke pout while looking at Yuri like a cute little puppy. Then suddenly Yuri look at him with a worrisome expression, the moment Ryosuke saw the change in his eyes he immediately snapped from it and laugh, "A-ahaha...but I'm perfectly fine now. Those scratches already healed...look-" and he raise his right hand and show him that it's nothing to get worried of about.
Yuri reminded of that day where they bumped to each other and he saw that injury but doesn't mind it at all due to the confrontation they had. "W-why did they do that?" he asked. He feel sorry about it but still remained reserve to his words and actions. The elder one move few steps closer and tug a carefree smile on his face, "Because they hate me." he answered confidently. Yuri doesn't understand why is it so easy for him to say such, as if being hated is something he's use to. Something he have built immunity to.
"I heard from Ari-chan that you were confined in the hospital. How are you now? Are you sure you're okay? I heard that you were there for two days. What happened? Are you sure you're eating enough? You should not forget to drink milk and eat fruits. I was so worried when i heard it from Ari-chan-"
Yuri didn't answer any of Ryosuke's question. He remained silent and show that uninterested expression again. "I don't think i need to answer any of your questions. Your 5 minutes lapsed. This conversation is over." Yuri said. "Goodbye." the little one is about to close the door when suddenly a hand hold the side of the door. "Always saying goodbye." Ryosuke nagged which put Yuri into an awkward situation, " Can you just stop running away!" his voice is quite in rage yet trying to hold back still. "I'm asking you these questions because-
"... I care for you."
Yuri look at Ryosuke in the eyes with stormy feelings inside. Deep down he doesn't want to talk to him but Ryosuke is pushing him to his limit. The little one wanted things to stay as is, even how much it's troubling him, even how much pain it inflict him, he decided to leave it that way and stop making things more complicated. That's why he's putting up his walls again.
"What's wrong with you? Why it has to be me?" - " I tried to open my door and go outside like you said, but, I just showed you this kind of me."
"I hate it."
Ryosuke wasn't blinking while hearing those words from Yuri. He doesn't seem to understand why he's doing this to his self. "From now on, you don't have to worry about me." the little one bluntly said.
"So you will live, hiding deep inside again?"
"I don't think I'm living deep inside." Yuri said showing that phlegmatically unaffected expression all over again. He held on the knob and pull it but Ryosuke didn't let him just close the door and shut him again hanging.
"I don't know if you still remember but I entered cram school during high school and met this person whom i became attached to because he's smart and approachable. The time I entered college, i met this person again but didn't have the courage to talk to him, since he is my brother's lover. One day i met an accident while trying to save this person. I was confined in the hospital for couple of days and when I came back everything feels different. This person suddenly felt broken and I, suddenly felt lost. My brother was confined in a hospital due to his cancer. Whenever i go to school, I always see this person alone. And in the library he hides. For months, my brother endured his chemo therapy but no kind of therapy could help him. He eventually died and my life has been decided after that."- "He didn't just disappeared on you. He is awfully ill and he doesn't want you to know. Before he die, he's crying for being a big coward. He is sorry for what he did to you and for what he didn't do, for you. Ryutaro, loved you even at the very last second."
Upon hearing the story the little one started to shed tears. But the past made him into this kind of person and it will never change the fact that he was extremely hurt, "Sorry? Do you think such words can console me? I didn't want to hear such words. The mere fact that he lied to me just to hide away his sickness...the fact that he didn't trusted me. The fact that he pushed me away as if i was nothing."
"Yuri listen..." Ryosuke grab his shoulders and look at his face closely. "The past remain constant. Whatever you do now won't make a difference. If you're hurt because of the past...let go. If you want to forget...forgive and move on. Look at the brighter side and forgive yourself. The future have better things for you. Whether it's the truth or not that's how people overcome painful memories."
Yuri smile lightly as he wipe off those tears away, but looking at his eyes it didn't change a thing. He still feel like moving on is the hardest thing to do despite of hearing the most accurate words. "Uhn... I understand." he nodded. "Don't worry i understand it so well. So...you need not to worry about me anymore. Arigatou Ryosuke." Yuri said. "I'll close the door now. " Ryosuke remove his hand and let Yuri close the door infront of him. While seeing the little one closing the door it seems like a slow motion in his eyes, he remembered every movement of his eyes, the fake smile he showed, the fake words he said. Ryosuke couldn't believe how hard Yuri's heart has become.
"Liar."
~**~
Arioka woke up from his peaceful sleep and heading towards the kitchen area when suddenly he heard the door bell ring. He immediately open the door and saw a post man delivering a letter. The letter is named after Ryosuke and the sender was a Publication company in America. Arioka place the letter under the table and texted his bestfriend to notify him about it. Ready for a heartfelt meal Arioka's phone rings and a very familiar name appeared on the screen, it was Takaki.
"Kon-ni-chi-wa" Takaki greeted. "Let me guess, you're having your lunch now am I right?" he asked.
"Ping-pong! You're right. You know what, sometimes I think you're stalking me." Arioka said.
"How did you say so?"
"Well, you're actually quite mysterious. I don't know what you're thinking and i find it hard to understand you at times. You're cool yet acting like kid." Arioka bluntly said.
"Aww~ really? But that's what you like about me right?" Takaki giggled.
"Woah!" Arioka chuckled after hearing those words from Takaki.
"Anyway, let's meet tonight at the Club. You're a special customer of mine, and mine alone." Takaki said leaving Arioka lost with words. His face turned red as the call hang up. "What am I thinking? Ugh...too much reading... Just too much." he muttered.
Takaki and Arioka are exclusively dating for a few months now. They go somewhere during their day off and sometimes they just meet at the club and have a good time. In spite of having a handsome lover, Arioka find it hard to believe that they belong to each other now. There we're times when Arioka felt insecure for being ordinary. A geek in the eyes of other people, and editor of fictional stories. They're different in so many ways but Takaki doesn't mind at all. He fell in love to Arioka not because of it's appearance and status in life but because he found something beautiful in him.
"One of the hardest part of living after a lost is not the lost at all, but the fragments of that person left in you. Which in everyday of your life you're trying to hide at the deepest part of your memory just so you can face a day like a normal individual. It's like shoving your old clothes at the deepest part of your closet where nobody can see how pale the colours have become, how worn out and thorn they have become. You try to straighten your curved and tired back and look straight while pulling that phlegmatic look so that nobody would think that you're going through such phase. Concealing and pretending that you're strong just in case people would ask. Ignoring the world while having thoughts that this day should end soon so that i can go home and remove the thick mask that feels uncomfortable. So that you can just breathe air..." Yuri placed ellipses after encoding his thoughts. He stopped for a moment and stare at his phone. He grab it but hesitated to even look at the screen.
He was reminded of the things Ryosuke told him. And while thinking, it slowly sink in to him that maybe these past years made him hate the world. He shut his self in because he know how cruel and dangerous the outside world is. He was scared to death after being extremely hurt, the feelings he felt that day gave him a big trauma and after that the following days became weeks and turned into months and years without realizing that he have built walls around him. Yuri squeezed his phone while in deep thoughts, then he remember Ryosuke's face and decided to give him a call.
~**~
"Ryosuke are you in?" Arioka knocked on the door.
"Come in." Ryosuke said. "What's up Ari-chan?" he asked while proof reading new biographies that he's editing that time. Arioka entered the room and tap him at the back.
"Something arrived at the mail today." Arioka said and hand him over a letter. The moment Ryosuke saw the logo from the letter he instantly understand what this thing mean.
"I have to go to my room now." Arioka said and give Ryosuke another tap at the back.
"Arigatou Ari-chan."
After a few minutes Ryosuke stopped with his pending work and stretch out his arms while holding that letter. "You have arrived." he whispered and smirked at the thought of how this thing arrived in a very crucial time. He heard his phone vibrated and quickly grab it under the table. A tug on his face suddenly shows the moment he saw Yuri's name on the screen.
"Baa-chan~"
"A-anou..."
"WAH!!! This is the first time you're calling me. Ureshii...hounto ni ureshii!" Ryosuke giggled in happiness.
Yuri feel how genuine his feelings at that moment that's why he suddenly turned red. "I-I'm calling you to s-say... I'm s-sorry." The ichigo lover remained in silence after hearing Yuri apologized from the other line. He felt a sudden tug on his chest the moment he heard him said that. Ryosuke chuckled which Yuri heard over the line.
"It doesn't seem like you Baa-chan." he smiled. ""I'm sorry?" i don't really like hearing those words."
Ryosuke didn't heard a thing from Yuri when he said that. There were moments of complete silence but nobody dare to hang up the call because both sides doesn't want to end the call yet. "I h-haven't done anything for you while you have given me so much more... I could only say Thank you." the little one said.
"I don't hear you say Thank you, it's always I'm sorry. Sounds cowardly. Hmpf." Ryosuke mumbled. "I'm telling that your apology haven't accepted yet." he said just to make things clear.
"Thank you... For bringing me to the beach to see the sunset." Yuri said wholeheartedly which Ryosuke felt deeply even they're not in the same place at the moment. The way Yuri said that pinches his heart in a very sentimental way.
"Yuri-"
"H-hai?"
"There's only one way that i can accept your apology. Come to our fashion show and walk with me in the red carpet?" he said but he only received an awkward silence so he just laugh after saying it. "Hahaha... I know you will disagree with that. Silly me." but everything that Ryosuke told him was half meant, he just played it as a joke to prevent discomfort to Yuri. "Uhmm...maybe go there... Just to watch me. I'll take that as a huge thank you from you... if you just come. Okay?" Ryosuke said happily. "I'll take your silence as a Yes. Don't forget okay?"
Yuri bowed down and lightly bit his lower lip. Butterflies were flying inside his stomach and his heart beat intensifies. It's quite strange to feel those feelings at that moment but he didn't object about this favour that was asked to him. "I'll be walking at the cat walk so you better watch me. If i haven't see you there I'll be very sad that's why you should come and enjoy the show. Once I see you there I'll flash a very big smile and wave at you." Ryosuke is very giggly while saying those words to Yuri, he really wanted our little squirrel to attend the said event since it's a big event for Ryosuke and the company.
"He's a really good person." Yuri blurted out of the blue.
"Aww~ you don't need to say that just to flatter me Baa-chan." The ichigo lover quickly responded in embarrassment.
"Ryutaro-"
"Ahhhh..." Ryosuke's expression turned gray when he heard a very unusual name.
"He's gentleman and very kind." Yuri mentioned a name which he doesn't usually talk about since that incident happened. But this time became different. Maybe Ryosuke's words enlighten him even just a little.
"I agree." Ryosuke smile lightly. " Even though we're not blood brothers, he treated me well. We became very close. We play a lot during our childhood. We tend to read as many book as we can when were still young. He's the one who supported me in writing while my parents opposed. He's the one who push me to follow the track that i love. Until now, he is in every words that I write. " Ryosuke shared that story wholeheartedly and whenever he is reminded of how Ryutaro became a very influential person in his life he couldn't help but to miss him.
"I-I need to hang up now." Yuri said.
Ryosuke put his attention to the letter that is placed under the table and suddenly he felt a sudden confusion. He squeezed the phone and took a deep and long sigh.
"Oyasumi-"
"I want to see you." Ryosuke whispered softly as if he's about to cry but the call hang up exactly the moment he spoke those words.
Yuri on the other hand, hold his phone close to his heart and he feel like his heart is about to burst, "Did i hear it right?"
"I want to see you...too"
