The rain hasn’t stopped yet. It turned into cat dog rain which made Fukka a little sleepy. He waited for Hikaru in the car. The other man got into the convenience store instead and didn’t tell him for what. Fukka’s thought went to a small talk he had with Tackey. It was about Hikaru.
“Please be there for him,” Tackey asked Fukka. It was something rare because it seemed personal.
“How come? I don’t know him,” Fukka assumed he wasn’t ready to be asked such a favor if he didn’t know who the man that Tackey talked about.
“It’s Snow Man’s choreographer,” Tackey tried to remind Fukka.
“He told me his name. That’s all.” Fukka shrugged his shoulders. “He is kinda… well… scary.”
“I know, but even if his demeanor like that, actually he has soft side.”
“Soft side?” Fukka felt a little wonder of what that was.
“He likes sweet and he feels lonely easily.”
Fukka was taken a back. Those were something he didn’t expect to hear. Even he was confused maybe Tackey didn’t talk about Hikaru at all, but about someone else.
“Sure, doubt me now, but when you spend more time with him, you will understand and have different way to see him.”
“I see that he is okay by himself. He is always…” Fukka didn’t continue. Yeah, Hikaru was seen as someone who looked okay just by himself. He gave out the vibe of not easy to be approached. Like Hikaru will glare at everyone who intruded his privacy.
“Just say hello to him first, and let yourself be close to him when you can.”
“Is he that important to you?” Fukka asked, no jealousy, he knew Tackey treat all equally, just a bit fond of him, and now he found out of Hikaru too.
“It’s more like you are important to each other,” Tackey said and smiled. “When I am not there anymore for you, he will.”
And with that Fukka wasn’t sure what the future would be for him and Hikaru. He tried to make the first approach to Hikaru. He greeted him, tried to talk, and even gave something that would make him happy, like tapioca drink. He bought and gave it to him after he asked the members what he liked. What Tackey said was true, Hikaru liked sweet.
Fukka wondered if Hikaru would thank him with a smile, but no, Hikaru never smiled at him. The other man had more interest in his face more than anything. He caught Hikaru staring at him many times. It made him uneasy, thinking there was always something wrong with his face. Was he too ugly?
He grimaced. He admitted that he didn’t pay attention to his look ever since he became a manager, and maybe it was the time to take a better care for himself. After all he would be with Snow Man and meet a lot of people. He didn’t want them to look down on the group because their manager wasn’t good in the eyes. He looked at his face from the rear mirror of the car. His bangs were so long, he had hard time to touch it away from his eyes. He needed a haircut soon.
