I remain standing there, stuck at the place in where I had finished reading the note on the piece of paper. Something is really wrong. If ever I was the one who had written this, perhaps, I should have at least laid out a few reasons on why I would make myself forget my memories. The note just made me curious on what it was about my past that I had wanted to forget. Is it about something, some event or about someone just a clue would have been enough. At this rate I would be curious enough to regain all my forgotten memories.

A small vibration at the pack of my pocket got me back at the reality. As if it was another habit of mine, I answered the call right away without even bothering to see on who was the person behind the call.

"Hello?"

"Tetsu! Where the heck are you?!" A deep baritone voice asked loudly. The growl in his voice was enough for me to know that the man was at the brink of his patience and that one wrong answer would be the end of it however there was a little softness to it as if hearing my voice was a good news.

"Tetsu!" The man shouted again bringing my attention back. "Where are you?" This time he had emphasized on every words as if demanding an answer to his questions.

I looked at screen of my phone wondering if the owner of the voice have his caller ID on it.

AOMINE DAIKI

Thinking that the caller must be a friend of mine and someone I had trusted, I looked around searching for some kind of a landmark. My walk earlier did not brought me much farther from the place I was in a moment ago.

"I was at the cherry blossoms earlier and now I'm at the front of a convenience store."

"Wait for me. I'll give you a ride back to your apartment."

Then without any goodbye the connection was lost.

I sat down at the nearest bench not wanting to make the man who called earlier miss me. There are many questions in my mind right now but for now I would settle with this. The serenity and piece of having no memories just like that of a newborn baby.

(=)

Okay, things might be a bit blurry right now. However, I'm contented on the way things are going.

Since the day that I had woke up- pertaining to my mysterious amnesia- no one had been in doubt that I had forgotten my memories. However, Aomine is a different case. Panicking that I could not go on and live peacefully, I right away told him about my condition. He calmly accepted my condition, told some information about me (like I was a painter and a part time writer and something else) and had always been asking about my state every time he got a chance.

So far, the people I had encountered treated me as normal at anyone could be aside from a selected few.

Everyone treated me as normal as I could be aside from Aomine who fuss over every little thing I do as if I would break a bone or two at every task I do no matter how easy it is. Though I think his motherly care for me had rooted from a deeper root.

Everyone treated me as normal as I could be aside from aside from Kise and Momoi who jump with joy every time I see them as if seeing me could complete their day.

Everyone treated me as normal as I could be aside from Midorima handing or telling me my supposed to be lucky item for the day almost every day.

Everyone treated me as normal as I could be aside from Murasakibara who gives me a portion of his snack every now and then.

All in all, most people is treating me normally so I wonder what it was about my past that I had wanted to forget so bad.

Everyday could be as a normal as any normal person could have aside from the day where all of us hang out at Maji's. Every now and then a food crew of the restaurant would warn as whenever our voices and actions are bothering any customers. However, it was as if the customers and service crew there had already known as for a long time that they could tolerate our noise for a longer period of time.

Every day, I was contented though in the deepest part of me, I feel that something is missing and I knew that my close friends knew whatever it is that was unsaid. Though I think that I am very good on disposing things that I should forget I might say. Even though there was still vague clues that I had specifically removed certain pictures in different photo albums. It was as if I was saying that 'I was forgetting someone, don't try to remember it'. I want you to know that everything was on purpose.

It had been two weeks since I forgot my memories. Aomine had allowed me to go out by myself by the first week though I had to promise every time I go out that I won't stray away and to always contact him every thirty minutes or else he would search for me right away even though he is in the middle of work.

I had made it a habit to buy an extra-large vanilla milkshake before I start a painting or type a new chapter in a book I am writing. Aomine said that it had always been a habit of mine. I was about to enter Maji's to buy a vanilla milkshake and also buy Aomine a mountain of teriyaki burger (since the man did not had enough time to eat his breakfast and make his lunch) when an arm had stopped me on my track.

"Tetsuya."

The man who grabbed my hand said in a commanding tone even though there was no order given to me I could still feel that something was said under my name, something that I was supposed to do. I could describe his voice as if it was made from pure gold. I know that the voice should scare me but it was as if some enchantment had been done that it made care and crave for more.

I let go of the door handle and looked at the man who called me. Striking red hair, a height that was slightly taller than me and heterochromatic red and golden eye, the sight that welcomed me made my heart beat in a manner as if saying that this person is someone important in my life, maybe just like Aomine, Kise, Momoi, Midorima, and Murasakibara he was someone that was supposed to be not forgotten, maybe.

"Where have you been this whole time?"
