You may never know how important and special you are in my life, and this is my chance to say it. I'm sure we'll meet again, so I won't say goodbye, I'll say see you later."
Those were the last words Kento heard from him, then he was gone. Gone like the wind.
He felt tears stinging his eyes and threatened to fall, but he wouldn't let it. Not with Fuma clinging to him like a lost child. Fuma was depending on him, so he shouldn't let him down by letting simple tears fall from his mastered blank face.
"Why did he leave us, Kento? Does he hate us? Are we not his friends anymore?" The younger boy sobbed and buried his face on Kento's chest. Kento opened his mouth, But no words came out. He perfectly knew what to say, so why he couldn't say it? ..Because he didn't want the the younger boy to feel even more sad.
"We'll meet again." Kento reassured, "Japan isn't that big to not find Takahata-kun, when we find him, we'll go eat your favorite food together. All three of us. We can even invite Matsumura-kun." That was all he can do right now. Reassure Fuma.
Fuma looked at Kento innocently and a small smile plastered itself on his lips, "ok.."
"Then we'll say to him that we'll be friends no matter what." Fuma beamed. He wiped his tear-stained face and waved at Takahata's direction, "We'll meet again, Misaki! Don't forget us!" He hollered.
Kento smiled and looked at the cloudless sky,
'We'll meet again, we may never know when, where, or how, When we atleast expect it, Where we may never think of meeting, and How will we meet, But I'll perfectly know why..'
Fuma hugged Kento and murmured,
"He won't forget us, right?"
"Right,"
'Because I have to tell you, you're special and important to me too..and..'
"Because this isn't time to say goodbye."
I have to call you by your name... Misaki..
Kento smiled. He ushered Fuma to go inside and together, they walk towards their dressing room with a space fitted for one person to fit between them..
