Summary: A story between a mute and a blind.
Warning: My English is bad. Girl Inoo.
A/N: Thank you for my friend Fa who wrote this storyline based on my idea. :3
Yabu jolts from his sleep and he immediately sits down on the bed. He breathes heavily and unsteady for all reasons. His cold sweat just dripping down to whole his body, wetting the shirt he currently wears right now. His chest just thumps madly, still with his uncontrollable breath.
For a while, he sits and tries to handle his breath in this so silent room which he stayed for five days. Yes, five days after that incident happened, and incident which always runs inside his mind and even chases him becomes his nightmare.
He takes a look to clock on the wall. It’s 1 AM. He starts to breathe through his mouth and his hands currently wipe for his sweat which is covered the face of him. Now, he could breathe properly. Slowly, he moves his hands lower and groping for his own neck. A sign of that surgery still craved there. It means that his nightmare about five days ago incident really is happened.
By all his strength, he stands and preceded his steps to go to bathroom. He turns on the sink and splashes water to his face, tries to makes himself fresh even just for a little. He reaches for a towel and wipes it on the wet spot, slowly. His mind still can’t let go from that nightmare which made him wake up from his not-too-peaceful sleep.
It scares him, especially when that guy’s shadow just passed on his mind. That guy is not a stranger, but his own best friend. Yabu Kota will never forget the day when his own best friend suddenly screamed loudly like a crazy person, along with a sparkling knife to stab his neck.
He starts to tremble again, closes his eyes for a while to forget about that accident even though he knows it just made him remember it even more. But, he shouldn’t think about it anymore. His friend should have his own reason why he suddenly did that irrational thingy and ended up by…stabbing him.
Yabu’s lips start moving slowly.
Arioka Daiki…it’s impossible if you tried to kill me right?
***
“Ohayo gozaimasu, Yabu-kun.” A young doctor approaches him, along with his famous humbly smile and he starts to sit in front of Yabu’s bed. He looks like around twenty years, and his face is handsome, even though his hair is brown and people would be misunderstood him as a yankee, but sure, he has a pure heart which made him success to be a doctor.
Yabu nods slowly and gives him a light smile. He sits properly and faces his private doctor. Takaki Yuuya stands on the edge of Yabu’s bed and he holds for a medical stuff, prepares himself to count his patient’s blood pressure.
“How are you today? Is it good?”, ask Takaki.
Yabu only smiles, again.
“Are you still feeling unwell? Your blood pressure just kinda higher. But compare to yesterday, your blood pressure just getting normal already”
The latter just silent still and without he could handle it, Daiki’s shadow when he stabbed Yabu five days ago starts to running on his mind, like a movie which always got rewind for numerous times.
Takaki pats his shoulder. “You already passed the second step of your surgery. The third step will be hold two days later. Prepare yourself and don’t get stress. If you stress your blood pressure will turn higher and it will disturb the surgery process.”, he continued then smiles.
Yabu nods once, shows to Takaki that he will do his best to obey his demand.
Takaki pats Yabu’s shoulder again for some times. “Refresh yourself and get fresh air outside, but you shouldn’t speak even just once. Wound on your neck will be unhealed if you speak, you understand?”
The boy just could let out his no-eye smile as his respond for nth time, but yeah…it doesn’t matter for Takaki since he is the one who ordered Yabu not to speak. Looking at nod of Yabu, he smiles back. “Good boy. Okay, I will check for another patient”, and by that, Takaki leaves Yabu alone in his room.
Now, the atmosphere just turns silent like when Takaki hasn’t come in. Yabu lets out a long sigh and he looks to the wall clock. It’s 8 AM. A good time to find for fresh air like Takaki suggested.
Set! Clap!
That shadow chased him again.
Clap!
A shadow when Arioka stands in not-too-bright apartment of them two appears once again. He could never forget that, never. He still remember it clearly where Arioka stands near a small window and his silhouette just curved perfectly under moonlight which is dripping down for the window.
Clap!
Arioka’s eyes which look at him coldly just made him shivered hardly. His breath starts to bring unsteady.
Clap!
“Yabu Kotaaa!”
This time, he remembers about Arioka who has his scared face just stare at him continuously.
Clap!
A loud scream just fulfilled their apartment that night. Yabu could only glare at him, full of confused feeling and could do nothing to calm down Arioka.
Clap!
Arioka holds a knife.
Clap!
Dark.
His body is just trembling more on top of this bed. He clutches for his head, tries to vanish that shadow once again. He can’t stop it, his body keeps shaking and he hates it a lot.
Clap!
“Do you want to kill me, Yabu?”
The trembling voice of his short feature best friend just keeps echoing inside his mind.
“Before you kill me…I will kill you first…”
Clap!
And now Yabu’s memories just remember about incident where Arioka attacks him and stabs his neck. It such a nightmare, he knows his best friend would never do that. So, what happen to Arioka that time exactly? Yabu just shook his head and his whole body just lets out its cold sweat again.
Arioka Daiki.... Doushite?
That question just filled his mind, it makes him trembling, and it didn’t give him any chance even to breathe properly.
***
Yabu walks on hospital’s garden, slowly, looking at the view around him. The west side of this hospital just feels so damn quiet, even though many people just spent their time here. He keeps walking and sniffs this fresh air so it could calmer his lung, and without he realizes it, his steps already lead him into the south side of this hospital. But, suddenly he hears someone’s voice, or to be exact someone is currently singing and it could make him feel distracted for a while. He heard it vaguely, but as long as his steps just keep moving forward, that voice just turns into clearly one. But, this voice is just simply so damn bad and horrible for Yabu.
He frowned a bit after saw a woman sits on a bench under a big tree, along with some children who keep surrounding around her. They wear these hospital clothes, and they sing in a very horrible voice ever, without knowing what they did is a sin. Yeah, at least Yabu thought so.
Yabu looks at that girl from a far. Seconds later, he smiles and holds his laugh. Well, maybe that girl is beautiful with her long black hair and slim feature, but her voice is just so-so. “Horrible, her voice is just too high-pitched”, Yabu mumbles to himself, of course it’s only a thought inside his mind.
Suddenly, wind just blows softly around him, and some leaves just fall down near that girl’s spot. For a while, despite he already insulted her while ago, now he just stunned on his position and looking at that smiling girl. Somehow, his heart just feels so awkward by this beat. He barely knows why, but he couldn’t take his eyes off from that girl. Especially when she should fixes her own hair which just slowly played by this wind.
“Neechan, please sing a song once again…”, said a chubby boy spiritedly.
“Ryochan, how if we sing together?”, that girl grins widely.
“I want to sing alone with neechan!”, a who-look-like eight years boy raise his hand highly and spiritedly, don’t want to lose to the chubby boy before.
“Oh Yuto wants to sing along with me too? How about Chinen, Ryuu, and Keito? Don’t you want to sing along with us?”
“Uhn!”, all of them just nods in unison. And then, once again Yabu should hear their voices which he claimed as horrible ones before.
Tsurai bakkari de
Ashita ga mienai to nageku senaka ni
Wakai kuse ni sa
Aishuu tappuri de yarusenai yo ne
Otona ni naru dake wasurete yuku kedo
Taiyou wa itsu demo hohoemi kaeshite kureru
Bokura wa ai no hana sakasou yo
Kurushii koto bakkari ja nai kara
Konna ni ganbatteru kimi ga iru
Kanawanai yume wa nain da*
*KinKi Kids - Flower.
His feet are just going frozen. He can't do anything except to just keeps staring at that girl and five boys around her. They are singing cheerfully, and they look like normal persons. But, since they wear this hospital clothes, it means that they are patients and currently…sick right?
But, Yabu suddenly find for another sweet thing. Yeah, he should admit that it really is good. The boys just smiles and has their sparkling faces when the girl sang for them. Even though that girl’s voice just feels like want to rip people’s ears soon, but that voice could made a smile curved on those lips of the boys. Slowly, Yabu follows those boys act, smiling.
“Neechan?”, asked the chubby boy before.
“Yes, Ryochan? Doushite?”
“Neechan could play piano right? I want to hear neechan plays piano in front of us…”
“Ore mo!”
“Ore mo!”
“Ore mo!”, all of them now shout slowly to her and raised their hands highly.
That girl lets his sigh and smiles. “But we don’t have any piano here”
“Sou desu ne....” those five boys now just let their disappointed tone.
“Hey, don’t be sad. We could still be happy without piano right?”, ask her again, tries to soothe those five boys uneasy feeling and gives them an explanation so they could understand.
“Haiii…”
Still, Yabu just looks at her amusingly, before a voice now just absorbed by his ears and he turns his face less than a second.
“Yabu-kun.”
He found Takaki-sensei just walks to his direction, along with his white coat as a doctor. Well, he is handsome after all. Yabu bets if he is a girl he will fall for him because it’s not just his face which is adorable enough, but his heart so.
“Someone looking for you, could you follow me?”
Yabu nods, and in a matter of seconds, he followed Takaki behind. But, sometimes, he takes a chance to look a view behind him, to the girl who sits still with five boys around her and smiling happily. It leads him to smile so, simply, sincerely.
***
“Yaotome-san”, Takaki greeted that guy who called as Yaotome. Yabu takes a look to him. He wears a black coat and his face is a goofy one. He guesses who this guy is, but before he found any answer, that guy just walks to him and offers his hand.
“Yabu Kota-kun?”, ask Yaotome and Yabu nods slowly as he gives a right answer. “Hajimemashite.” and this time Yabu reached out his hand, shakes it with Yaotome’s one.
“Yaotome-san, like I said yesterday Yabu-kun still couldn’t speak…”, said Takaki.
Yaotome nods and he releases his hands from Yabu’s. “I understand, I just want to have a light conversation with Yabu-kun. Ah Yabu-kun, my name is Yaotome Hikaru. I work as police-detective who takes over about criminals. Don’t worry, I just want to have a small conversation with you”, he smiles a bit, showing Yabu his crooked teeth and Yabu particularly holds his laugh.
After a while, Takaki bids a goodbye and leaves those two at Yabu’s room. Yaotome takes a seat near Yabu’s bed. “Saa Yabu Kota, I will ask you some questions. Since you can’t speak, you should just nod or shook your head. If you want to say something, you could write it here”, Yaotome offers him a note and a pen which is gratefully accepted by Yabu.
“Okay, let we start it. Do you know Arioka Daiki?”, ask him starts to be serious, but still, he smiles so he won’t made Yabu feels scared.
Yabu nods.
“Did you live with him? I mean, share a same room?”
Yabu nods for second time.
“Five days ago…did he stab your neck so you get this wound?”
Yabu nods, again.
“Do you think he wants to kill you?”
Yabu frowns his forehead. Well, maybe that time yes…Arioka seems like he is a beast who is ready to kill someone at anytime. But…Arioka…wants to kill him? It seems like this fact couldn’t be acceptable by his rational mind. Yabu shook his hand quickly and he starts write something on the paper.
Arioka is a very good friend of me. I am sure he has his reason. I believe him.
Yaotome reads that paper carefully, caressing his own chin and shows that he is thinking hardly about any chances which could possibly happen behind this case. Seconds later, he lifts his face up and starts to see at Yabu’s face again.
“This lately, I take a look to your apartment. I found for an opened window near the kitchen. The incident happened at night. Did you think that night the window just opened mysteriously?”
Yabu tries to recall his memories, and as long as he could remember he just writes what inside his mind now.
I am not sure, but we always locked the window every night.
“So you don’t know anything about that window nee? Did you hear something suspicious that night?”
Yabu writes down again, this time he wants to tell Yaotome properly what was happened that night.
I heard some suspicious voices on Arioka’s room that night but it was so unclear. I am not that sure about the sound and since the lamp just turned off, so I don’t know anything. I wake up after I heard Arioka’s screamed loudly. After I step outside my room, I looked at Arioka who currently stood near the window. He screamed for my name and seconds later I saw him holding a knife. I can’t move when he started to stab me and gave this wound to my neck. I don’t know anything.
A minute passed and Yaotome starts to open his mouth again. “Do you have an enemy?”, he asked in serious tone, as expected from a detective.
Yabu shook his head.
“Do you think there is someone whom envied you? Or…do you think Arioka has an enemy?”
Yabu shook his head again. He knows how kind Arioka could be, so it’s impossible he has any enemy. He knows Arioka very well, everyone just got attracted by his kindness. So he is sure, he didn’t answer Yaotome wrongly.
Yaotome smiles and lets out his sigh. “Okay, enough for today. thank you for your cooperation nee Yabu-kun. I will leave you first and get well soon, okay?”
After a nod from Yabu, Yaotome steps out from his room. When he just alone here, he stands right away and walks slowly to the window near his spot, looking at the south side of this hospital. His eyes just set automatically to the huge tree on the garden, but…he couldn’t find for what he is currently looking for.
Doko?
Yabu just stay silent and looking through window, tries to search for her existence around that spot but still…he got nothing as his result. He lets his heavy sigh and feels disappointed for some reasons. A reason which he still doesn’t know what is it.
