The sound of his ringtone broke the afternoon silence - also his afternoon power nap. Nakajima Yuto slowly opened his eyes, letting the afternoon sunlight bleached his eyesight for a second before returning to normal. He sits up from his sleeping position, just barely noticing that his photo album was still propped on his tummy. He smiles thinking about the fact that he fell asleep while looking at its content.
He shifted his eyes towards his dresser where his phone - which is now vibrating and belting out a Celine Dion tune - lay near a picture frame of him hugging his girlfriend, Ema Sato; looking like they were having the time of their lives. He rubbed his eyes to get rid of the drowsiness of the afternoon and reached for his phone.
"Moshi moshi, Yuto desu."
"Moshi moshi, Nakajima-kun? Hai. Reiko desu." Yuto raised an eyebrow. Reiko was their co-worker, him and Ema I mean. They both work with her at a boutique that sells wedding dresses nearby. She was very fond of both Ema and Yuto and acts like their overprotective big sister even though their age is not really that far apart. Quite the opposite really. She was the youngest of them all. And she was the manager.
Yuto could hear her trying to sort out her words. This made him very uneasy. Very uneasy indeed. "Yuto..." Yuto's breathe hitched a hike. She never called him by his first name unless it's something very serious.
"It's Ema... She was in a car accident... an- and I'm sorry!" Yuto could hear her trying to control her emotions on the other side of the phone. He could feel a slight tremor coming from his own body.
"The doctors really tried as hard as they can... b-but they couldn't save her... Sh-she's gone..." That was the last straw for the both of them. The last thing Yuto heard was listening to Reiko's wet sobs from the other line and the thud of his phone, the result of the impact between it and the floor beside him.
"I-impossible..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's been exactly 2 months since you left, Ema...
Yuto was in his car, stopping at a red stoplight next to a very busy and overcrowded sidewalk. You could even barely walk without bumping with another's elbow or ribs. Yuto let his eyes wander through the crowd for a split second...
But for some reasons..
Yuto saw a flash of a familiar face somewhere in the crowd. The face was smiling at him, flashing a wave at him.. Yuto could feel the shock stopping his heart for half a heartbeat. It couldn't be...
I could still feel your presence...
A loud honking sound made Yuto's head snapped back to the front view. "Hoi! It's the green light! What are you doing?!"
Yuto replied a quick "Sorry." and started to drive again.. His eyes lingering at the empty place where the face was just smiling at him a few seconds ago...
I don't know what has gotten into me...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yuto sat on the sofa of his working place. All his work are scattered on the coffee table. A finished wedding dress stood nearby. It was his creation and it was for her...
The phone rang again and he quickly picked it up. The familiar voice rang in his ears as he answered the phone.
"Yuto..."
Yuto could only manage to stutter "Ema..." as he stood up.
"Are you okay Ema? ..... Okay, I'll be there in a moment!! Wait for me!!"
Finally... I'll be able to see her...Yuto grabbed the finished wedding dress.
Wait for me Ema... Don't leave me again...
He dashed out of his office and almost bumping into Reiko.
"Nakajima-kun? Where are you going? We're having an appointment with a client in a few minutes!"
"Cancel it, move it to another date, I don't care. I have another important business." He simply stated and then dashes out again. His eyes were... empty... like it was not him that was talking to Reiko a few seconds ago.
Reiko thought the incident was really weird... What is going on with him? ...then her head snapped to the noise eminating from the fax printer ( is that it? .____.) Someone had sent in a fax.
Reiko went to it and read it. Somehow her breathe and heart were in her throat at the same time. She was having goosebumps and a chill was running down her spine; spearing her to the core of her bones.
"Yu- YUTO!!!!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yuto was on top of the large building; the roof top. The place where he and Ema usually spent time together to eat lunch and stuff.
He was breathing heavily from running up the stairs.The dress looks heavier than it looks. He turned to his right to see someone sitting on the edge.
"E-Ema? Is that you?"
Yuto felt a sudden happiness burst within him when the person turned to reveal the face he loved so much. He ran to her and hugged her, enveloping her petite figure with his long arms.
"Eh? Yuto? Why are you like this? Of course it's me!"
"Here's the wedding dress that I made for you... If you want to try..."
"Really? I want to!!" She exclaimed happily. Her face radiant. Yuto was lost in her eyes.
"I- I've missed you so much, Ema. Promise me that you won't ever leave me again!" He said, teary eyed as he traces her face with his fingers. Ema giggled.
"What are you talking about? I'm always here for you, Yuto. I will be forever by your side." She said, smiling.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yuto gasped as he looked at Ema in the wedding dress. The dress looked magnificent on her. She even looked like she had this glow around her as she twirl around the roof top, showing Yuto how she looks like in the dress she made.
"How is it? Does it look pretty?"
"You're so beautiful, Ema..."
Ema was standing on the edge of the rooftop. The dress was huge and when she stands there it's as if she was floating.
She touched Yuto's cheek and stare at his eyes. "Yuto..." She whispered. "Come with me... to a beautiful place... We can live there happily forever..." She stood up again, her hand stretched out to him.
"Come and hold my hand.. We'll go there together." She said with a smile. The smile Yuto longed for these last two months...
Yuto, his eyes were as if he was hypnotised stare at her, his hand reaching out for her. "And where is that? I will always go to you wherever you go..." He murmured. Their hands were almost touching...
"YUTO, NO!" Reiko and their other friends, Keito and Ryosuke burst in from the door behind him to see Yuto already on the edge of the rooftop. In his arms lay the wedding dress he made for her..
"I... I want to join Ema.."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm sorry Ema...
The scene was as if in a movie... There was no sound that Yuto could hear except for his mind's thoughts... His face was wet with tears that are now streaming down rapidly.
I really do want be with you...
Keito and Ryosuke was beside him, trying to comfort him, to talk him out of jumping...
Of course, he couldn't hear them...
But I realized that my journey is still long...
But he could feel them, holding him down so he won't fall..
Bringing him to safety...
He didn't fight them.. He just went on crying.
But don't you worry Ema... Wait for me there...
Because someday...
I will be with you...
The wind was blowing a paper away from the scene... A paper that read:
Come with me...
Ema Sato
