It had been a while since Masaomi had left, and Mikado had tried to convince himself that he was ok with that. But he knew he was lonely, he wasn't acting like himself. Anri notices first, but Mikado never told her why he was like that, he just said he knew.
"I can't wait! We finally get to see Massimo!" Erika cheered. Anri and Walker agreed.
What?
Mikado was never told about this. When had they found out where Masaomi was? Why hadn't he been told? It seemed that Kyohei nor Saburo knew about Thai either. They were all sitting at Russia Sushi when the three started talking about it.
"Make sure you get lots of sleep. The train leaves at three am." Walker said. Mikado looked to Kyohei for answers. He shook his head.
"Oh! We never told you guys that we are you g to see Masaomi!" Erika exclaimed.
"I'm sorry I never mentioned it. I'll call you when we get in the train." Anri said.
"Yeah, thanks." Mikado replied, sarcasm laced his voice. Anri looked down at the table. Everyone was silent, they could feel the tension between everyone.
"I should get home." Mikado said and stood up, Saburo followed.
"Hey," Saburo called, "I know Masaomi was a close friend of yours. Just don't think about them. They're obviously not worth your time."
"Yeah, I know." Mikado sighed softly, "I just wish I would've known." Saburo nodded. When the two of them made it to Mikado's, they said their goodbyes and went separate ways. Mikado huffed and flopped onto his bed. Now he definitely didn't feel like himself. It wasn't normal for him to be this irritable. He rolled onto his side and tried to forget about tomorrow. It didn't work.
Mikado awoke to a knock on the door. He glanced at the clock to find it was only three thirty in the morning. Saburo was outside his door.
"They're gone. They didn't say anything to me either." he said. Mikado just stared. So he was alone?
So be it.
