When We’re No Longer Here - Chapter 18 - Rebuilding Our Broken Bonds
“Where’re the others ?” Ryosuke ask the only person sitting on the couch as he seated himself next to him.
“Hmm. Let’s see… Ryutaro is going home since his mother is scolding him through the phone for 2 hours nonstop. Yabu-kun had asked Takaki-kun to babysit him though. Chii is going out to shop around and decided to drag Dai-chan with him. Inoo-chan went to the library to get some materials because he still has to do his tests through the internet and still lacking of sources, Keito decided to tag along. And both Hikaru-kun and Yabu-kun went to Jimusho to talk with Johnny-san.” Explained Yuto.
“Eh ? Why did they- ?” Ryosuke widen his eyes in disbelief.
“Apparently, Johnny-san had decided that he’ll put us in a hiatus if none of us showed up within this week. So the 2 of them decided to go and tell Johnny-san the truth and to negotiate with him about JUMP’s status.” Yuto sigh deeply.
“I don’t understand. Who told you about that ? And isn’t that too risky to tell Johnny-san about our whereabouts ?” Ryosuke’s frown deepen.
“Some of the Juniors are still in contact with us. Like Shintaro, people from Kis-My-Ft2 and others. None of us told them anything though. They told us that Johnny-san said that, so they tried to warned us.” Yuto said seriously. “And yes, it is indeed risky. But the risks will become bigger if we keep silent about this. Admit it Ryo-chan, we indeed need help.”
Ryosuke was taken aback at the younger boy’s words. Not about how serious he was when he uttered it. And not about the talks itself. It’s more about how he called him. Yuto never called him like that since they started to grew apart. Ryosuke realized it, that he somehow missed the taller boy’s presence. Though their separation was unstoppable, but he still regretted that he had to put a rift between them. He still regretted that day he put an end in their so-called friendship.
*FLASHBACK*
Ryosuke bowed his head low as he felt the other boy staring at him. His heart was thumping hard and loud, he was sure that if they pierced their ears, they could hear his heartbeats.
“Ryo-chan ! Doushitano ?”
Ryosuke could practically hear the younger boy’s smile. It was so hard to do, but he had to do it. He had decided and he’d went this far. There was no turning back.
“Y-Yuto-kun, how are you feeling ?”
“I’m feeling much better right now. Don’t worry !” Yuto smiled ever so brightly.
“It’s good.” Ryosuke smiled back.
“Un !” Yuto nodded his head in excitement. “I’ll be able to return to work soon.”
Ryosuke said nothing at that. His mind was racing about the words he should say to the other boy. He heaved a deep breath as he uttered what had been bothering him lately. “Yuto-kun, gomen. You had a lot of works yourself, but you still had to accompanying me around. Teaching me the dances, consoling me when I was upset, walking with me home, and such. Because of that, you overworked yourself like this.”
Yuto chuckled at this. “It wasn’t your fault at all Ryo-chan. You don’t have to blame yourself. I was more than willing to accompany you, so no one was at lost.”
“But…” He trailed off. “I don’t think this will work anymore Yuto-kun.”
“What do you mean ?” Yuto frown in confusion.
“You shouldn’t hang around with me anymore. I’ll only slowed you down, Yuto-kun.” Ryosuke finally said it. And before Yuto could make any words, he quickly added, “Get well soon, Yuto-kun. Bye.”
And with that, Ryosuke left without turning back.
*END OF FLASHBACK*
“I was a fool.” Ryosuke suddenly said.
“Ha ?” Yuto just look at him with a frown.
Ryosuke look at him smiling. “I was a fool, Yuto-kun. For ever letting you go. For ever following my selfishness. For ever ending our friendship.”
Yuto can only stare at the older boy dumbfounded.
“I thought that by cutting our bond, it will make you spread your wings even wider, so you can fly without having me as a burden. I thought that I was making the right decision for making a rift between us. I guess I was just a child back then.” Ryosuke stare at the ceiling with a contended smile. “I am still a child after all.”
“Ryo-chan…” Yuto whisper softly.
“Do you know how much I missed that call from you ? How I missed your company with me ? It was excruciating, but I thought that it was for the best.” Ryosuke close his eyes as he leans his back to the soft couch. “How I was so wrong. How I did my biggest mistake…”
Yuto sigh as he too leans back to the couch. “But it was too late now to undid it all, don’t you think so ?”
Ryosuke flinch at the cold tone the younger boy used. He knew it was all too late. But still, hearing those words being spoken like that, had hurt so much.
“So there’s no need to regret things at the past now.” Yuto speak softer now. “Let’s just start a new one.”
Ryosuke shoot his eyes open as he straighten himself and looking at the boy beside him in disbelief. “W-what did you just said ?”
Yuto also straighten himself at this. “I said, let’s just start a new one. There’s no use in repairing the unrepairable bond. So let’s just start from the beginning.”
Ryosuke was still left speechless before he broke into a shy smile. “I think it’s fine.”
“Sou. Let’s get along well from now on then. Yoroshiku.” Yuto smile gently at him.
“Un. Yoroshiku.” Ryosuke smile back at him. Finally feeling content as one piece of his lost puzzles have been found.
Later that day, when the rest of JUMP finally got home, they were all smiling at the sight in front of them where Yuto and Ryosuke are both sleeping side by side at the couch so peacefully, with a warm thick blanket wrapped around their bodies neatly, the smiles never left their peaceful faces. And they understand, that the long broken friendship had been rebuilt with a stronger thread this time.
