"I didn't do anything wrong!" I shouted slamming his bedroom door shut behind the both of us.
"You took my sister to the green house," he said, somehow managing to stay composed.
"And what!? You aren't the only one who isn't allowed to play! Haruka told me she needed somewhere to play away from your father. So I took her there. I don't understand why you're so angry," I said, my voice softening slightly at the end.
He turned to face me.
"I'm not angry, I'm upset. That was my special place and I shared it with you. I wanted you to see some other part of me than what I'm forced to act like."
He was shaking as he said that and turned back to looking out his window. I hugged him from behind, kissing his shoulder gently.
"Don't do that when I know it's Haruka you want to be with," he whispered.
"Masato," I mumbled letting go of him.
"You can leave. It hurts more the fact that you're still here even though you don't want to be."
I turned and left him there staring out of his window.
I ran down the stair desperately wanting to get out of that house; I'd hurt the most important person to me but I hadn't realised. I bumped into something as I came to the bottom of the stairs and stumbled backwards.
"Ren! What's wrong?!" Haruka cried rather alarmed.
"Sorry Haruka," I muttered trying to pass to her left but she blocked my way. "Please! I need to leave!"
"Something happened with Masato-kun didn't it?!" she sighed.
She instructed me to sit down as she began mulling around the kitchen.
"Speak," she instructed turning her back to me.
So I told her everything.
"You have to apologise," she said as she scooted the plate over to my side of the table. "I will as well."
"Do you think I was wrong to take you there?!" I asked taking a bite out of the sandwich she'd made me.
"Yes," she answered taking a seat next to me. "That was the only place he was able to be himself. He obviously cared enough about you to show you. So you should have let it remain his instead of showing it to me. That's something you'll never be able to give back to him."
"You're right. But what am I meant to say?!"
"You'll know," she said smiling at me.
