Chapter 23 - The Chubby-Cheeked Boy’s Dilemma and His Story

Lately, Daiki spent his days with staring blankly with unfocused eyes. His head was occupied with something else. Well, only one thing actually.

“Akari, where are you going ?” he asks as his sister walking down the stairs, looked ready to leave.

The girl roll her eyes. “Since when you care about where I am going ?”

“Since somehow you are a part of a dangerous Organization !” he exclaim.

“Like you’re not. And in case you forget, I’m just a Healer nii-chan. No fighting involved like you.” She replies annoyedly.

“Well I’m a boy and I’m older than you !” Daiki burst out.

“Just by a year.” She keep on walking out the house. “And by the way, I’m leaving to the Ward, I have a meeting with the other Healers.”

“What is that for ?” Daiki demand.

“We still have some Rookies in critical conditions. There were another attack last week.” She replies hurriedly. “Look, nii-chan. I have no time to talk about this. You’re just taking this too big. Beside, Ken-chan is waiting.”

“Ken-chan ? Who’s Ken-chan ?” Daiki frown in confusion.

“My partner. Ittekimasu !” then she leaves without waiting her brother to reply.

“Dai-chan, wanna visit Ryo-chan again ?” Chi ask him.

“Gomen Chi, I can’t.” Daiki smile half-heartedly and leave.

---

“Dai-chan, Ryo-chan told me that he will start schooling next week !” Chi tell his partner excitedly.

“Good.” The older commented blankly.

---

“Dai-chan, I think there’s something wrong with Ryo-chan and Ryuu-chan.” The little boy said.

“hmm.” Daiki simply responded.

“They don’t seem they had settled down their problem, but they don’t seem in a bad relationship too !” Chi exclaim.

“hmm.” The same respond came from the older.

“Dai-chan ! Did you even listened to me ?” Chi got pissed.

“hmm.” The answer is still the same.

“Argh ! I’m pissed ! I’ll just find Yuto !” the little boy run in annoyance.

---

Daiki know that because of his mind about his sister, he was always ignored his partner and bestfriend. Maybe Akari was right. Maybe he was just taking too much fuss over this matter. He had no reason to worry at all actually. His sister is only a Healer. No fighting. He never heard any of the Healer ever sent to real assignment consisting any dangerous thing before. The only dangerous thing they ever do is saving people who injured badly or people in critical conditions.

So today, he has decided to make up some things. He know he just need to accept the fact that his sister is member of the same Org he’s in. That’s first. Second, he need to find his cute little fellow to apologize.

“Chi !” he calls as he see the one he’s been looking for in front of the gate after school.

“Dai-chan ? Wow, I haven’t heard you called me like that for like forever !” Chi said unbelievingly.

“I know. That’s why I was looking for you today. To apologize for ignoring you lately.” Daiki bow.

“Hey, it’s okay. I understand. You were worried about Akari-chan.” Chi smile widely toward him.

“So you’re not angry at me ?” Daiki ask nervously.

“I admit that I was pissed at 1st, but then I thought you just need your own time. Beside, Yuto-kun accompanied me well while you made up things.” Chi smile happily.

Daiki is also smiling. But then his smile turned into a grin. “Chi ?”

“Nani ?” the small boy ask.

“Since when you call Yuto as ‘Yuto-kun’ ?” he asks teasingly.

Chi blush a little. “Mou, don’t tease me like that.” He pleads.

“Ahahaha. You’re so cute, ne !” Daiki pinch the younger boy’s nose.

“Don’t pinch me !” Chi remove his partner’s hand away.

“Okay, okay.” Daiki giggle. “Ne, what are you doing here ? Waiting for someone ?” Daiki ask him as he realized that they’re still at the school though the class hours ended 30 min ago.

“Hai. I’m waiting for Yuto-kun. We planned on walking home together today. But he had a clean up duty today. So I’m waiting him here.” He answered.

“Chi-chan ! Gomen for the wait ! Ah, Dai-chan’s here too !” the said boy came right after Chi spoke.

“Yuto-kun ! It’s alright. Ikkou !” Chi tell the 2 boys as he start walking too.

Just after they’re turning to the 1st corner, they can hear familiar voice from there.

“No, it’s not like that ! I was just going to buy something. I…” the boy stopped for a brief sec before continuing. “Well, I’m not !” he stopped again. “Okay, okay ! I’m going now !” he snaps out.

“Yabai.” The boy then hiss.

“Ryo-chan ?” Daiki ask hesitantly.

The boy turn around with a phone in his hand and his face is anxious. “What are you doing here ?” he asks harshly.

“W-we were j-just about to g-go home.” Chi sutter.

Realizing what he was doing, Ryosuke inhale deeply and his face become more relax. “Gomen. I was a little upset.”

“It’s okay.” Daiki reply. He still seemed shocked though.

And there they’re going home together.

“Ne, who was calling ?” Daiki ask.

“My mother. I forgot to tell her that I will come home late today. So she was frantic.” He answered annoyedly.

“Anou, Ryo-chan ?” Chi calls.

“What is it ?” Ryosuke ask.

“You promised us that you will tell us about how you met Ryuu-chan, right ?” he tries not to looked so eager.

Ryosuke think for a while before he snaps out. “Aah, that ! Fine then. Well, she actually came to our house just a few days after I fully recovered. I was walking around, practicing my feet when I found her crying near the pond. So I approached her and consoled her. After that, we became quite close to each other.”

“Why did she cry ?” Yuto ask.

“Well, it seemed that she used to always came to our house when she was facing a problem in her house. She told me that our house made her felt better. Though lately, she wasn’t just coming to cry.” Answered him.

“Anou, why did you meant with ‘after I fully recovered’ ? What’s wrong ?” Daiki ask bluntly.

“I’ll tell you later. So why did she changed Ryo-chan ?” Chi interrupt.

“Well, she smiled more ever since. She always came to played with me. She came to visited me about once in week when I was sick too.” He informs them.

“Eh ? You were sick once in a week ?” Yuto ask in disbelief.

“Well, that accident left my body susceptible. A huge amount of smoke had filled my lungs from it, and it made me had troubles with breathing. Beside that, I was being bedridden for almost a year, so, I was kind of adjusting my body to my surrounding. So yeah, I have to admit that I was sick for almost once in a week back then.” Ryosuke state calmly.

“How long… ?”

“About 2 years.” Ryosuke answered before Daiki finished his question. “And that was the reason of my parents’ disapproval about the idea of me joining the Org.”

“Uwaah. Eh ? Does that mean Ryuu-chan knew about your condition back then ?” Chi ask, and receive a nod from the older boy. “But she told us that she didn’t know why your parents’ forbid you from joining the Org ?”

Ryosuke give them a bitter smile. “She didn’t know about the accident. And sometimes, I just pretended that I wasn’t sick. She need not any concern that wasn’t hers.”

“Yama-chan, I just realized something.” Yuto blurt out.

“What is it ?” ask the Knight.

“Your recent condition, it was similar with your condition, after the accident. Is there, is there any relation between that similarity ?” Yuto point out.

“Aah, you’re right !” Chi agree.

Ryosuke’s face turn stern for a brief sec, but then it changed back into his cold face.

“What’s wrong Ryo-chan ?” Daiki though, realize that brief change.

Ryosuke smirk a little. “Nothing. I guess I’ll save that for other time. I’m arrived. Ja.” Then he enters his house, leaving the boys out again.
