Characters: Shouta Mikoshiba /thinking about Tamao Hasui/
Genre: vignette; missing scene
Rating: G
Words: 157
Summary: "Call all you want, but there's no one home, and you're not gonna reach my telephone." (c) GaGa
Warnings: Is spoiler alert a spoiler per se?.. The middle of Chapter 53, if you know what I mean.
Notes: That strange feeling when the heading is almost as long as the actual fanfic... But in this particular case, I deliberately struggled to keep the ficcy terse. I wonder if it worked out. Written for 12_stories, Dark table, prompt #5 "leaving".
Disclaimer: DOLLS and its characters belong to naked ape.
I NEED TO TALK TO YOU
PLEASE CALL ME BACK ASAP
WHERE HAVE YOU GONE?!
STOP IGNORING ME!
WHERE ARE YOU???
YOU CAN'T JUST RUN AWAY LIKE THIS!
Shouta has received none of such texts. But he is sure they are there, hung in the limbo of undeliverable messages, waiting for him to turn on his phone... He doesn't think he will do it.
At some point, a faint qualm touches his mind; it occurs to him that avoiding a man-to-man talk must be chicken-hearted and not quite fair... but he dismisses this momentary invasion of doubt with solid, rational arguments.
"It's not like we can't meet again at all", he recalls his own words. He didn't tell a lie. But considering all the circumstances, he earnestly hopes that it will never happen.
Parting has always been difficult for Shouta, but he'll manage to cope with one more. He had undergone incomparably worse experience in bidding farewell.
