Autumn Leaves (2/2)
I walked to Chinen’s house excitedly. I felt that today was a different day from before. Maybe it was because yesterday’s kiss. Although there was no official statement that we were couple now, but I felt that Chinen loved me back. He replied my kiss, and let his hand stack on my hand on our way home. And today, I decided to go to school together with him, showed to everyone that he was mine.
I really wanted to hold his hand again. I admitted, I was addicted to a boy named Chinen Yuri.
But as I reached his house, I saw many people gathered there. Maybe it was his neighbors. But why did all of them have a serious look on their faces? I had a bad feeling about it. Was there something bad happen to my Chinen?
“Uhm. Excuse me. What happened here?”
I tried to ask to a woman in front of me. She gave me sad look.
And her answer was strong enough to make my world stopped spinning.
“Are you a friend of the boy here? He was killed by his father this early morning.”
Yeah, my world had gone, blew away by the autumn wind.

This beautiful person on the coffin was my Chinen Yuri. He wore a white suit that he would wear forever. There was nothing different with him. Just I couldn’t feel his warmth again as I touched him. His face was still showed his angelic side. A slight smile still curved on his lips. If it was a bed, maybe I’d thought that he was sleeping peacefully.
His father drank again last night, and went home early in the morning. His mom suddenly went away again from home because of a sudden job in the neighborhood. She left from the house in yesterday’s afternoon. There was nothing wrong on the house until this early morning, when his stepfather reached the house again. He abruptly opened Chinen’s room, and found the sleeping Chinen there. He tried to rape Chinen again, and Chinen had no other choice but woke up and screamed. It made the servants woke up too and immediately went to Chinen’s room. Meanwhile, Chinen was struggling hard and tried his best to shoo him away, or ran away. His stepfather felt angry because he felt rejected, and he choked Chinen until his last breath. As the servants reached his room, Chinen had lied lifeless on the floor, still with his stepfather’s hands on his neck. Some servants called the police, some tied the stepfather on the chair, and some tried to save Chinen. But it was too late.
His mom immediately went home after heard that bad news, and she hadn’t stopped crying since this morning. She blamed herself, for couldn’t be at home and protected Chinen from the man. The stepfather himself had been caught by the police, and waited for the punishment.
But no matter how big his punishment, it couldn’t bring Chinen back again to my side. As I held his hand and kissed his cold lips for the last time, tears rolled down to my cheeks.
“Sleep tight, my Chinen Yuri.”

He went when he had had the courage to change himself. Although he had made many friends, until the time he went away, he had never showed arrogance to us. He came from a rich family, but never showed it to us. He never blamed other people or other students for believing and adding the fake rumors about him. Everytime there was someone who asked for his help, he’d smiled and tried his best. He showed modesty everytime and everywhere he was. Same with the momiji he loved so much.
I caressed the grave again. I repeated the name that craved there over and over again on my heart. But I knew, how many times I called him, he wouldn’t come to me again. The one that made me fell in love with him for many times, now had disappeared.
A year had passed, and this park was still the same as the first time we went here together. Chinen was buried in a spot in the park, where we shared our first kiss. I’ve told his mom about his favorite place, and she asked for the permission to bury Chinen there.
The momiji still scattered everywhere, even on his grave.
I took a momiji, then searched for something on my pocket. I took out my pen, and wrote something on the momiji. I looked at it for the last time before put it on Chinen’s grave. I hadn’t said this to him before. So I just hoped he could read it from up there.
The autumn wind blew up some momiji from Chinen’s grave. I stood up and looked at the momiji I put on Chinen’s grave once again. It still stuck there. Then I smiled before then walked away from there, leaving the momiji with my feeling written on it.
I LOVE YOU
