"We're here again..Why?" Kame's impatient voice broke the silence in Johnny's room.
"I see you're not up to a little chit chat time Kamenashi-kun. I called you here to inform you about the first show's ratings. You both sold well as I predicted." Johnny answered calmly despite the displeasing tone of the young man.
"We were already informed. No need to call us here from time to time." Kame said not amused to Johnny's facade. The older man knew they've been already informed but still insist on calling them in his office
"I see no problem with informing you again Kamenashi-kun and if I'm not mistaken you have no scheduled interview for today." Johnny countered.
"I have other appointments." Kame lied.
"I see. How about you Akanishi-kun? You don't seem bothered by our occasional meetings" Johnny looked at the man sitting right next to Kame.
"I've been called so here I am. I happened to have a lot of free time." Jin answered with equal coolness.
Jin had been observing Johnny since they entered the office, he can't seem to figure out what it is that made him aware of his every action whenever he enter Johnny's office with Kame. What are you plotting J-san? Are you planning to ruin us this time again?
"You already said what you want to say, I see no point in being here. Excuse me" Kame excused himself.
"Ahhh~ Why is that Kamenashi-kun is always in hurry?" Johnny directed the question to Jin.
"Stop this" Jin blurted.
"Stop what Akanishi-kun?" the old man asked innocently.
"Whatever it is that you're planning. Stop it" Jin stated firmly
"I have no idea of what you're talking about Akanishi-kun" if he tell him that he's trying to get them back together his plan would be ruined
In a matter of seconds Johnny felt himself being lifted to the ground. Jin came to him around the desk and grab his collar...tight.
"If Kazuya got hurt by this scheme of yours.. I'll do what I didn't have the chance to do two years ago. I'm going to kill you. Consider yourself warned J-san." Jin let go of the older man's collar and walked his way to the door.
He stopped can't help adding..
"You mentioned you've been to hell.. Well tell your devil friend you'll be seeing each other soon." and he was gone.
"I'll be saving you a sit just in case" Johnny manage to said after the man went out.
Damn. Akanishi sure has a temper. How can I manage to get them back together without getting myself killed? Johnny laugh despite the unpleasant encounter with Jin.

~A with K~ Radio Show!
Kame and Jin: Good Evening everyone! Welcome to A with K radio show!
Jin: Our last week's show had been a success. We received a lot of response from the fans and a very pleasing rating for the 1st night.
Kame and Jin: Thank you to all the listeners.
Kame: As for tonight's show let see... Our topic is "Regretting something in your past"
*studio staffs groans "Why the hell J-san is giving these kind of topic?"
"I don't really know how his mind works so let's just see what will happen"
"I feel sorry for them though"*
Jin: Regret. What a sad word ne~
Kame: Yes I agree. Whenever I heard the word "regret" I can only think of every bad things that happened in the past that I would like to forget.
Jin: Why? Because you regret all those things that happened?
Kame: Yes. I feel the sense of regret but in the same time I know regretting them is too late now.. so the least thing that I could do is to forget them.
Jin: But forgetting them would not mean that it didn't happen.
Kame: That way it's less painful Akanishi-kun. When a person forget... as time goes by it will feel like nothing happened in the past.
Jin: That's like escaping the truth eh? I think regretting your past is okay and accepting that it all happened.. that nothing could ever take away those painful memories in the past... You could only move forward when you accept your past.
Kame: Isn't regretting same as telling yourself how stupid you are for ever letting it happened? It's like you did something then you regret it afterwards.
Jin: I would like to stick to the old cliche 'Everything happens for a reason'
*studio staffs held their breathe in the whole exchange of opinions about their topic. They offered a silent thank you to all the fans/listeners calling in the studio now.*
Kame: Seems like our little debate would end there ne Akanishi-kun. The calls are double of the last time.
Jin: I assume many listeners are willing to share their own story of regret.
Kame: You get to choose now Akanishi-kun
*Jin picks one call*
Caller: Moshi moshi? Manami Keiko desu!
Jin and Kame: Good evening Keiko-chan! Welcome to ~ A with K~ Radio Show!
Caller: I'm glad you picked me Akanishi-kun! Like the other caller last week I'm a Akame fan too! I love you two together!
Jin: Pure luck Keiko-chan. You're welcome and Thank you for supporting us.
Kame: Thank you.
Caller: I listen to Kase by Kase too Kamenashi-kun!
Kame: Oh you can tell which one of us is talking ne
Caller: Of course! I could tell even you if you change your voices!
*studio staffs laughs*
Kame: I'm afraid that would be impossible Keiko-chan but thank you.
Jin: Despite the meaning of your name Keiko-chan "happy child" right? You have something in your past that you think is regrettable?
Caller: Yes. Listening to you a while ago Akanishi-kun... 'Everything happens for a reason' I believe that's true but what reason could possibly explain why my fiance left me? I've been asking this question to myself for the past two years now. We were so perfect.. everything's going smoothly and then that day came. He left me. I never understand why he did that.
*one of the hardcore Akame fan staff swear "Oh boy. This is going to be messy."
Kame: He just left you...without explaining himself?
Caller: Would a simple note count for explaining himself?
Kame: What's written on the note?
Caller: "I know you'd understand. I love you" that's exactly what the note says. I never understood what it meant.
Kame: Are you sure both of you love each other? or is it one sided only?
Caller: I'm sure. We've been together for five years..I never know what gone wrong.
Kame: Sometimes... time if not enough to prove one's love. Time is never enough.
*Jin can't stand it anymore. Why does every topic connects to us? Dammit.*
Jin: And the thing you regret is?
Caller: I don't regret falling in love. I regret that the one I fell in love with is him.
Jin: So you're saying is you don't regret the feeling of being in love but you regret being in love with your ex fiance? the person itself?
Caller: Yes. I thought I understand... but I don't
Jin: Don't you think that's unfair Keiko-chan?
Caller: Eeh?
Jin: You experienced love with him and yet you regret it? The person itself made you feel what 'love' is...without that person you would never know how it feels. Don't you think you owe him that? The note says '"I know you'd understand." that means he trusted you. That person trusted you to understand his reason yet you didn't.
Caller: I never thought it that way. When he says he knows I understand... isn't that a bit selfish? How would I understand if I don't have a slightest clue what he is talking about!
Jin: I think you do understand Keiko-chan. You're just afraid to admit that it's the reason why he left you.
Caller: How did you know that?
Jin: Pure luck Keiko-chan.
Caller: By any chance... have you ever been in my situation?
Jin: I don't regret anything if that's what you're asking. In my situation it's the other way around. I don't regret falling in love or the person I fell in love with. I love that person so much to regret anything.
Caller: Even if you're hurt?
Jin: Yes. But like I said... it's the other way around in my case. I'm the one who left that person.
Caller: Then I have no sympathize for you Akanishi-kun. Did you left that person a note too?
Jin: I didn't.
Caller: How did it end?
Jin: I just left. I trusted our bond. I knew that person would understand.
Caller: Did that person understand?
*studio akame fan staffs looks at Kame who fell silent*
Jin: I can't really tell. I hope that person did. That person knew more than anyone why I did that. I thought of explaining myself but I knew if I did I would never be able to leave that person and if I did that...that person would get hurt... so I decided to leave without a word.
Caller: That's cold!
Jin: I'm more hurt than the person I love Keiko-chan and I believe so is your ex fiance for leaving you.
*studio staffs got teary*
Kame: How could you say that? The one who left is more than hurt than the one they left without any word?
*studio staffs tensed after hearing Kame's cold voice*
Jin: The one who left knew that the person they love would understand.
Kame: But apparently they didn't. No one could understand. Not without a proper explanation.
Caller: I think I know what you're talking about Akanishi-kun. When my fiance left... I never considered his feelings. We both love each other but I didn't think of his feelings when he left me. Maybe you're right Akanishi-kun...maybe he got hurt too.
Jin: If you both love each other. I'm sure both of you got your share of hurt. I can't assure you that he regret leaving you one thing is for sure.... the only thing he regret is he didn't get to explain himself.
Caller: I guess I could stop regretting that I loved him. I still love him you know, despite of the past.
Jin: If he's listening he'll know that.
Kame: I hope we didn't get you confused by our talk. This radio show sometimes tend to get a bit of sidetrackted.
Caller: No! You guys really helped me! Thank you.
Kame: I hope we really did.
Jin: You get to choose a song Keiko-chan.
Caller: Care by Akanishi-kun onegai~ If he's listening I want him to know that I still care. Thank you again Kamenashi-kun! Akanishi-kun!
Kame and Jin: You're welcome Keiko-chan! It was nice to have you here in A with K radio show!
Are these people kidding me?! Last time it was Kizuna and now Care! Why the hell fans keep wanting to play these songs! same thought flooded Jin and Kame's mind.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After the radio show
Kame immediately went out of the studio. He couldn't take it anymore. Why the hell did Jin talk about 'getting hurt' he didn't know what 'getting hurt' meant! He need air. He need to get out of this damn building.
Someone grabbed his wrist and pulled him around the corner.
Jin.
"What do you want?" Kame didn't trust his voice but he manage to ask
"Is that what you want? A proper explanation of myself why I left you two years ago?" Jin let go of the young man's wrist afraid that he'll do damage.
"We're not discussing this Akanishi" Kame bit his lip...a small cry wanted to escape
"Answer me Kame. Is that what you expected me to do? Explain myself?" Jin pleaded.
"It wouldn't matter" Kame looked directly to Jin's eyes.
"It matters...to me" Jin admitted
"I don't want to talk about it anymore Jin. Please" Kame feeling restless didn't notice himself calling the man by his name.
Jin. He called me Jin again.
"Why? Because you decided you wanted to forget what happened between us because it's less painful?"
Not receiving any response from the younger man he asked again.
"Do you regret our past?" Jin heard his own voice quiver.
Kame looked at the man in front of him ..really looked at him. He looked restless too. He even look vulnerable. Akanishi Jin...looking vulnerable. imagine that....but then he don't find it surprising at all. Jin shows his vulnerable side whenever they're together in the past. 'Is it true? What you said a while ago? that you're more than hurt when you left me? What's true and what's not Jin?'
Jin looked at the man he trapped...pain visible in his eyes. 'Did I hurt you again? I just want answers Kazuya. I want to make it right this time.'' he can't stand the painful look of the man so he decided to let go... this time
"I won't force you Kame. I'm sorry... but I still need answers.... when you're ready" he gestured the man to go not wanting the one to walk out on him. He can't let that happen anymore. He can't walk away from Kame anymore. This time.. he'll face the consequences.. even if it means he'll do exactly what he threatened Johnny.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Looking back at the building in front of him.
"I don't regret our past Jin. How could I? I love you."
(((((END.. but then again... TBC~)))))
