“Thank you.”
She smiled back.
“Well, let’s eat dinner!”
“Tonight’s menu, it’s yakiniku!!!”
Hitoshi and Reio cheered.
While the teen stare blankly at Reio.
Fist clenching underneath the table.
“Ah, Reio…”
Hitoshi turned to his youngest son.
“How come I haven’t seen Kazuha lately?”
“Hm?”
Reio smiled.
“She did drop by last night, but you weren’t home yet, tou-san.”
Kazuya… Kazuha…
Hayato twirled his food with his chopsticks.
KAZUha… KAZUya…
“Hayato?”
Hitoshi frowned.
“Sweety, your meat is burnt.”
Rena chuckled.
“Pick it up, Ha-“
“Kazuya and Kazuha, huh…”
The teen scoffed.
“You’re slick, uncle Reio.”
“Eh?”
Reio frowned.
“So you’re with her because they share the same name…”
He shook his head.
“What kind of man are you, uncle Reio?”
“Well, whatever.”
The teen looked Reio straight in the eyes.
“Just stay off from K-“
“Hayato, what are you talking about?”
Rena cut him off.
The teen took a deep breath to calm himself.
“Uncle Reio…”
He trailed.
“You and my tou-chan…”
The Akanishis’ eyes widened, and they waited for the words to come out of their grandson/nephew’s mouth.
The teen found out this fast…
Well, sooner or later he would.
This is the house where his father grew up in after all.
Maybe he saw a picture of Jin?
Did Rena forget to lock the Tatami room?
“Hayato…”
Reio put his plates back on the table.
“I can explain.”
“Explain…”
He scoffed.
“Hayato.”
Reio tried again.
“My tou-san and you were once lover, right??!”
“Eh…?”
Reio blinked.
“You guys were lovers, right?”
He said softly.
“It all made sense…”
“That’s why…”
“That’s why you rarely visit me in New York.”
“To avoid unnecessary feelings, or-“
“Lovers???!”
Reio exclaimed.
“Hayato, they were not lovers.”
Rena stated.
“Eh…?”
The teen blinked.
“HAH!”
Reio laughed.
“You suspected me being his lover???!”
“It would’ve make sense if you said this to Koki nii-san!”
“No, say it Ryo nii or Tomo nii.”
“They’re the ones that were chasing Kazu nii-chan along with ani-“
“Reio!”
Hitoshi glared at his son.
The teen’s ears perked up upon hearing his uncles names.
Because Reio was mumbling too fast, he didn’t catch everything the man said.
“Sumimasen deshta…”
The teen bowed.
“I’m sorry for my stupid outburst, uncle Reio.”
Reio sighed, and pouted.
“Ano ne!”
He pointed to the teen.
“Your tou-…”
“Kazuya nii-chan is like my own brother.”
His voice softened.
“He could’ve been an Akanishi after all any-“
“Let’s continue dinner, boys.”
Rena sent her son an icy look.
“Okay?”
“It won’t be good if they’re all over cook… ne?”
The three men chuckled, and continue their dinner.
When the teen was busy talking to Rena, Hitoshi glared at his son.
Reio looked down sadly.
“Oyasumi, Hayato-kun.”
Hitoshi smiled at his grandson and went off to his room.
“Oyasumi, uncle Hitoshi…”
The teen smiled.
“Haya, you should sleep too.”
Rena yawned.
“I will.”
The teen nodded.
“Not soon, it’s noon in New York, auntie.”
“But, maybe in few hours, I’ll force myself to sleep.”
“Okay, sweety.”
She pats his head lovingly.
“If you need anything, just come to our room, okay?”
“I have all your favorite snacks in the fridge and pantry.”
“Okay.”
The teen got up, and gave his grandma a kiss.”
“Oyasumi, auntie.”
Rena smiled sadly.
“It’s grandma, Hayato…”
She mumbled.
The teen sighed and took out the two cds in his pocket.
“If they weren’t lovers then…”
He twirled the items in his hand, contemplating if he should watch it again or not.
“And if that wasn’t uncle Reio…”
“Who is he?”
“Why would this be in uncle Reio’s room?”
“Why would those albums be in uncle Reio’s room?”
Turning off the tv, he got up and walked towards the room again.
Careful not to make any noises, he took down all the albums and pictures he and Nick saw the day before.
The teen cringed when he knocked down some the cds again.
“What… the hell…?”
He squinted his eyes, trying to read what it says on the cover of the cd.
“Bokura… no… machi de?”
He mumbled out.
“Our town?”
He tilted his head to the side.
“KAT-TUN… our town…”
“What is KAT-TUN…”
“Why are the five of you here?”
He placed the cd away, and look for other things.
“Tch…”
The teen ruffled his hair.
“I shouldn’t be snooping around…”
Sighing, he placed all the things back to their original place.
“Still…”
He held the cd on his hand.
“What’s with Kazuya and my uncles with KAT-TUN anyway?”
“Well…”
He placed it back on top of Gokusen.
“Maybe it was another one of their things they did back then when they were young.”
“So who are you really…”
He looked at the framed picture of the 6 of them covered in bubbles.
“If you’re not uncle Reio…”
“Who are you, mysterious guy?”
Placing back the frame on its place, the teen leaned on the wall.
“This room’s comfortable.”
He sighed.
“Well, I don’t think uncle Reio would mind if I sleep here.”
He took out the futon, and immediately laid down, and tucked himself in.
“Tou-san loves you, Haya…”
He whispered.
“I love you so much, son…”
“… I am not worried about you one bit, baby…”
The man smiled down at him.
The baby, not understanding anything, just move his arms and legs around.
“… for I know you will be greater than me…”
“In so many ways…”
“I hope that you don’t follow my footsteps, son.”
“…grow up, live with the person you love…”
“… cherish him, sweet heart…”
“…don’t be the cause of those tears that will fall out of your love’s eyes.”
“… tou-san, is not an example to follow…”
“Nor one to look up to...”
“Don’t follow tou-chan, ne, Hayato?”
“Grow up soon, baby…”
“I can’t wait for you to talk and call me dad.”
The man chuckled.
“Or daddy…”
“Tou-chan… tou-san…”
“Whatever you prefer, Hayato.”
“…I hope you grow up like that Hayato.”
He smiled and dropped a kiss on the baby’s forehead.
“But of course… don’t be a delinquent, okay?”
“Forgive tou-chan, okay, son?”
“Tou-chan is not an example to follow.”
“Forgive me, Hayato…”
“Forgive tou-san, ne?”
His tears fell on the baby’s cheek.
“Forgive him too.”
The man wiped it away gently.
“I caused him pain and sufferings.”
“I’m sorry tou-chan brought you to this world in this condition.”
“I don’t know what the future holds, baby, but…”
“I know you’ll grow into a fine man.”
“You will be the better man than me.”
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself.
“Hayato…”
The man called him lovingly.
“Gomen ne…”
“Forgive tou-chan, okay, son?”
“I don’t know what later holds, but always know that, sweet heart…”
“That no matter what happens…”
“I will always love you.”
“I love you, Hayato…”
Hayato got up, and threw the blanket off his body.
The teen panted as he looked his surroundings.
He touched his face, and wiped the tears that couldn’t stop falling from his eyes.
“Otou-san…”
He mumbled out.
“Why am I crying…?”
He chuckled, and wiped his face with his sleeve.
The tears wouldn’t stop falling.
And eventually, he covered them with his hands, and sobbed.
“Otou-san…”
“Otou-san…”
