Chapter two
Akihiko-sempai and I walked away from the cemetery in silence. Akihiko-sempai held on the boy I mean Minaru-kun's head phones. As we got to iwatodia strip mall we ate at Octopia in silences
"Should we tell the others about Minaru-kun?" I asked Akihiko-sempai
He shook his head and sighed
"For now let's keep this between us. Mitsuru is already at Tokyo U. Ken and koromaru are adjusting to his Uncle's home. And you, Fuuka, Yukari and Junpei has school to worry about."
"But what if he is Minato-san's brother?" I asked him and even the idea worries him.
"For now I'll call and ask the principal of my college that I'll arrive there next week." Akihiko-sempai said then sat straight.
"I'll try to look for him and after the opening ceremony tomorrow. Meet me here and we'll search together. If he is Minato's little brother he has to know what happened to him" Akihiko-sempai said
I can see it in his eyes and I can feel it deep inside me the same guilt that all of us had when Minato-san died and our journey through the abyss of time.
"I think I cannot bring myself to tell him what happened to his brother." I admitted
"Neither could I. He may come to hate us but we have to tell him everything since he lost his brother" Akihiko-sempai added.
Akihiko-sempai walked me back to the dorm me and Yukari-chan are staying. At the door we said farewell. Akihiko-sempai held on to the head phones of Minaru-kun.
"Where have you've been? It's almost curfew and I was getting worried." Yukari-chan said as came in our room
"I am sorry that I worried you. I have just visited Minato-san before I headed back" I said and Yukari-san instantly understood.
"It does seem right to visit him before the semester begins." Yukari-san said as I her smile.
After dinner Yukari talked to me about how excited she was for tomorrow. Then we went to bed afterwards.
"Say um Aigis" Yukari-san said in a low voice as she turned to her to face me.
"Yes Yukari-san" I said in the same low tone.
"This would be our last year in Gekkoukan High" she said.
I turned to face her and smiled at her and we both started to laugh
"Yes, we will get to see Junpei-kun and Fuuka-san again"
"Yeah, let's make it the most amazing year ever" Yukari-san said with a gentle smile on her face before she drifted off to sleep.
That night I couldn't sleep. If I close my eyes I would see the startled face of Minaru-kun when the wind blew his hood off his head. His hair was dark blue that covers his fore head and his eyes are gray. His features are just like Minato-kun only his eyes look so cheerful and warm. I do not know how I would explain to him everything that has happened to his family.
The more I think about it the pain within me sharpens. Akihiko-sempai is right if Yukari-chan and the others finds out about Minaru-kun they might not smile like how Yukari-chan smiles earlier. But I somehow managed to sleep.
"Hey! Yuka-tan! " Junpei-kun shouted as we arrived at the gate of the school.
"Good Morning Junpei" Yukari-chan said in return
"Good Morning Junpei-kun" I said and Junpei gave me a huge smile
"Yo Aigis" He said back. As we walked inside the school, Fuuka-san waved at us when we got near her.
"Hey Fuuka, how are you?" Yukari-chan said after giving Fuuka-san a hug
"Good Morning Yukari-chan, Junpei-kun and Aigis-san it looks like I am in the same class as Yukari-chan." She said
"What that means me and Aigis are in a different classroom" Junpei-kun said and even I was disappointed I wanted that all of us are in the same class but looks like it won't happen.
"Well what's done is done let's just make the best of this year." Yukari-chan said as we walked to the auditorium.
I noticed the freshmen are constantly talking to one another. I happened to catch what there were talking about.
"Hey did you see the transfer student" one girl said
"Yeah he's kinda cute but he looks very familiar to you know who" the other girl said.
"tsk, rumors and it's only the first day" Junpei-kun said as we passed the two girls.
Then I noticed him. He was walking out the faculty room and he saw me too. As soon as he left the room and pulled him outside school as the opening ceremony began. I didn't face him but I felt his eyes bore down my back. I instantly called Akihiko-sempai
"He's there?" Akihiko-sempai asked
"Yes, I may appeared that he has transferred to Gekkoukan High" I told him and I heard him sighed
"Just make sure no one sees him. I'll be right there" Akihiko-sempai said before ending the call.
"Onesan" He said.
I turned around and pain pierced me again. He looks just like Minato-san
"Nice to meet you Minaru-kun"
