heey!! Sorry took me too long to update! anyway! I promise after this chp I'll really focus on Yuuri and Wolfram... hehehe

Chp 10 - Greta

"He knew?!" Murata asked, almost shouting to the whole café. Yuuri shushed him when people started looking at their direction. He turned to the people who were staring at them and nodded a little as he muttered an apology.

"Well, that's not a surprise for me though…"

Yuuri looked at him surprised.

"What? What do you mean by saying that when you're just shouted for the entire café to hear you." he glared at Murata who was sipping his tea, hiding his smile behind the glass he was holding.

"Ahh that… that's just for a drama scene, you know…"

"Drama? What do you think we are huh? A comedian company? Murata! I'm being serious and you are playing around?? Oohh… I don't know how I should face Wolfram after this…" Yuuri said whining. Murata snickered.

"Don't worry, I'm sure that you'll be fine. Really… say, do you really were planning to confess to him?" Murata suddenly asked in interested. Yuuri froze, realizing Murata's question made him remember what he was about to say to the blond. He looked down blushing while his friend grinning at his reaction.

"Well, I don't know… maybe… There is something that I wanted to say to him at that time, but… I don't know if I'm going to confess or not…"

Murata's face turned into a disappointed one.

"Really? That's boring, Shibuya. But I really want to know the ending of you and Wolfram though…" Murata said, grinning. Yuuri took his drink and slurped it loudly.

"So… As I recall… Wolfram was breaking up with Elisabeth, is that right?" Yuuri chocked on his own drink and looked at Murata in surprise.

"What? What's make you think that?" Yuuri asked. Murata blinked.

"What? I thought that's what's happening, since you are going to confess on him… So, something must be going on with him and Elisabeth or some other reason that made the two split. Am I wrong?" Murata grinned at him.

Yuuri frowned at him, sometimes Murata's knowledge amazed him enough to scare him but when he would know the simple reason behind his explanations, he was a bit disappointed. Just like when Holmes giving a full knowledge of someone but when he explained the reasons, its only simple and well, disappointed though it was awesome.

Yuuri gave a small chuckle as he leaned backward on his chair.

"Well that's right. Something like that… but after Wolfram's "There is something that you can't change, even if you want to." speech, somehow it make me lose some confidence within me." Murata eyed him warily.

"Are you going to give up?" he asked straight to the point.

Yuuri looked at him in the eyes; there was something in Murata's look that bothered him so much. He was going to say that he was going to give up on Wolfram, he was sure the blonde's answer was no. But the confidence was starting to die down, he was not sure.

Yuuri sat up straight, closing his eyes in thought. He knew instantly what he was going to do. Whether to kept the feeling inside of him or let it out little by little, he knew he would never stop loving the blond. True, the fact that they were both boys cannot be change. But that doesn't mean that he had to give up just because of that. Yuuri smiled to himself. He opened his eyes to look straight to Murata's eyes.

"No, I will not give up on him just yet…" He could feel his confident slowly risen up, thanks to his best friend. Murata smiled at him as he nodded.

A week had passed since then. Wolfram was starting to act as if nothing had happen. Yuuri knew his behavior in normal ways, even if he tried to hide his feelings by scolding and shouting. What Yuuri gladly do when Wolfram was having his memories flash back to his head was that the blond tried to forget the pain with playing baseball. Of course Yuuri complied and ended up playing baseball with him for almost the whole day, even if it costed him double homework from Gunther or the ache in his arm by throwing fast balls to Wolfram. He was happy when Wolfram starting to turned back on his usual self.

Yuuri grinned as he stared on the clear winter season. Remembering about their practice on the field in the cold weather, but since they were both working hard on the practice they didn't really feel the cold.

He sat on his desk and looked at his unfinished homework, he sighed. It was no use, he couldn't concentrate on it as he was thinking about baseball… and Wolfram. To him, they were both seemed related now and then. Every time he thought about baseball, the other mind appeared that he had used to play with Wolfram. Yuuri closed his exercise book and sighed once again, looking back to the baseball field that looked smaller in a distance. Thinking about playing baseball again, he then remembered that Wolfram hadn't come back from his duty. Which was... Helping Gunter sorting the books in the library since Wolfram was fighting over Yuuri in the classroom this morning over some little thing. As usual.

Staring outside in boredom, he changed his view to his little calendar that was placed on his right. He smiled; they were going to have a holiday soon but that somehow turned his face into a sour one. Yes, holiday means he was going home, he'd promise his family to go home.

Other than that, he had his little niece waiting for him. He smiled as he remember the little girl with curly brown hair and her big eyes that always sparkling with happiness. Sometimes, just seeing her was enough to make him happy. He chuckled as he remember the way she called him, it make her cuter than ever. Wonder what will Wolfram said when he heard her calling him that. Yuuri's face turned into a sad one all of the sudden when he remembered about Wolfram. Again.

Yes, holiday meant no Wolfram. Well, that doesn't mean that they would never be able to meet when they wanted to, but… Who knows if Wolfram decided to go back to his country and spend the whole of his holiday there. He couldn't possibly follow him there could he? Beside he was not sure if he'll fit into the noble family of his. He groaned in disbelieve. He was always forgetting that Wolfram was a prince in his home town.

Just when he was thinking about Wolfram, the door banged opened which made him jump in surprised. He turned around and saw Wolfram's face was all red, probably because of exhausted for helping Gunter sorting all of the books in the library. He walked over Yuuri with a wide step.

Yuuri looked at him questioning, he was now noticed that Wolfram was holding a postcards and envelops. He was from the post box and Yuuri was sure that Wolfram was also taking his letters and postcards. To his surprise, the blond shoved the envelopes and postcards to Yuuri's hand and held one postcard in his hand. Yuuri quickly took the envelopes from his hands and put it on the desk. He noticed that they were all for Wolfram, not him.

"Umm.. Wolfram? Isn't there any for me? Maybe the one fro-?"

Yuuri stop asking when Wolfram glared down at him, the wimp only looked at him confused. Wolfram raised the postcard and held it right in front of his face. Yuuri held his breath and looked at the childish paint of him and a little girl. On the left side of the postcard, written the sender and also the dorm's address under it. His name was written in katakana, with the title she was used to call him on the front of his name, daddy Yuuri. Yuuri grinned, he was about to take the postcard from Wolfram's hand when the blond raised it up from his reach. Yuuri looked at him frowning.

"Wolfram? What are you-"

"YUURI!!" Wolfram suddenly shouted as if he'd lost his patience. Yuuri was sure his heart would stop in a second.

"Who is this child Yuuri?! Why is she calling you daddy? And what's the relation you have with her?! She doesn't even look like you!" Wolfram said, pointing the small picture of her photo box with Yuuri's brother.

Yuuri chuckled. That was actually the reaction that he was hoping from Wolfram. Yuuri snatched the postcard from his hand and looked down on it.

"She's my daughter." Yuuri said, grinning. Wolfram looked at him open mouthed, but then he tried to composed himself.

"Yuuri, you know that I'll not be tricked that easily being. Now, tell me the truth…"

Yuuri pouted.

"I'm telling you the truth…" Yuuri said. Wolfram now glared at him dangerously. Yuuri looked at him sweated dropped.

"She is my adopted daughter…" Yuuri said. Wolfram blinked at him, twice, truce… then a sudden bulb appears on his head.

"What? You were adopting a small child to be a single parent? I don't know that you wanted that very much, Yuuri? Is not having any girlfriend or boyfriend afraid you so much that you adopted a child?! Wimp!! I can't believe you!! Does your family knows about this?!" Wolfram was now shouting at him. Yuuri raised his hands to calm him down.

"Wooaaa… Wolfram… calm down! And you're too quick to jump into conclusions!" he rose from his sit when Wolfram mention 'boyfriend'.

"Then what? Explain to me, wimp!!" he shouted again.

"She is my cousin! Only, I adopted her." Yuuri said explaining. Wolfram expression turned into a question and confuse look.

"What?" Hearing Wolfram's question, Yuuri sighed walked over the kotatsu. He sat down and gesturing Wolfram to follow him. Wolfram sat across him and looked straight at him in the eyes.

"This child is my mother's sister's daughter. She lost her father when she was seven, now she is 10. Greta's mother remarried to another man, but sadly… (Yuuri's face turned into a sour look and clenched his fist on his laps) Her new father disliked her. Greta was being a very nice girl and she did everything she could to make him happy but all he did was violent with her. He was very rude, even her mother couldn't stop him from beating her. Greta's life was ruined by her mother's new marriage. It was very clear that his new father didn't want a child from her wife's previous husband. He wanted to get rid of her. That's when I visited her and saw the violence. In order to protect her, I took her out from her home and brought her to my house. When I was walking out the house while caring her in my arms, her father was shouting at me…

""Bring her out from this house! I don't care if she is being kidnapped or killed! She's not my child, I don't want to have that pathetic man's child in this house. I don't ever want to see her again!" "

"That's very rude of him! How can he do that to a small child like her? Didn't her mother try to stop you from taking her?" Wolfram asked him in concern. Yuuri was glad that he was listening to him. No more accusing him that he was adopting her for some stupid reason. Yuuri nodded.

"I ignored him and walked out from the house, comforting Greta who was crying in my arms. Her mother ignored her being taken by me… When I brought Greta in my house my family was shocked to hear the news. They were then protecting Greta even tough we know that it was not enough… It was not enough to make her completely happy. All I could do was to watch her sadly. Sometimes she came to my room to ask me to sleep with her because she was afraid. I, of course complied anything she wished me to be done for her. I was becoming very attached with her. I was glad that she was day by day returning to be happy but… I couldn't see her eyes sparkling with happiness at all. Seemed like she forced herself to look happy around us. I fully understand that, tough. After all, she was just a child.

"A day when I went to school I saw her mother standing in front of my house with nervousness gestures. I quickly ran to her wondering what she was up to. If she wanted to have Greta back, I would not give her even if I had to go in the court. I would take her in my custody. That was what I was thinking about when I ran to approach her. She noticed me and walked over to talk to me. Do you know what she said?" talking what his last sentences was with half laughing, he didn't expect Wolfram to answer him. Wolfram only looked at him curious.

"She wanted me to take her child…" Wolfram's eyes widen.

"What? How could that possibly…" he was stop when Yuuri shook his head.

"I couldn't believe it myself… but that's the truth. She said that her stepfather might want to get rid of her if she was in her home and she couldn't help when she saw Greta suffering. So she asked me to take care of her. Of course I couldn't do that easily. I had to talk to my family first. She complied and met my parents the next day in the morning. My mother said that she had no problem at all and we would take care of Greta, as long as she didn't forget about her own daughter here. She nodded in a silent respond which make me doubt that, but I didn't say anything. The problem was now on Greta. Was she willing to accept that? I was afraid that she would tear apart. All of us were trying to find a way about how to tell her this. She seemed notice our odd behavior to her and turned sad. Then in order to make everything's go right, she did something that made is all shocked."

Yuuri was watching Wolfram, who started fearing what the girl he was telling did and the brunette chuckled.

"Don't worry, everything turned fine in the end… But first, you must know that the problem about Greta was being thrown to me. You know, since I was the closest to her. So, I was confused about how to tell her that. When the nights came, I came to Greta's room where she was staying in my house and saw that her bed was empty. I began to panic when I thought that she might ran away, I quickly ran down the stair to search for her only to bump into my brother who was walking upstairs. He was complaining about me being shellfish and I talked to him in panic. He raised his hand to calm me down and asked what was wrong.

"Greta… Greta is not in her room! She's no where to be found, not even in my room!" I said with panic. My brother turned pale when he heard and quickly turned downstairs to search for her. Because it was almost midnight, some of the lights were off and we had a bit difficulty to search for her. What I didn't know was that Greta was in the kitchen holding a knife. (Wolfram's eyes widened, his fingers tips were starting to become white as he pressed it firmly on the table in fear, Yuuri ignored him). When I walked passed the kitchen, I saw the knife glistening in the dark. Of course it made me noticed that there was someone inside the kitchen, but I didn't know that that someone was holding a knife. I turn my path to the kitchen and walked inside without having any thoughts and called out Greta's name. My brother followed me behind. The other who had heard the news started to scramble in front of the kitchen and hustling on the other side of the room. My mom was also calling for her. All of us didn't know what happened, so we were just searching for her without having any thought about being attacked. By her. And her target was… me"

"What? Why? How? I mean…" Wolfram couldn't find the right words. He looked at Yuuri terrified.

"She called my name and I of course recognized her voice. All of my family was also noticed her and they all ran to the kitchen after hearing the news from my bother's shout to inform. (Yuuri sighed in relivef), the image of her started to turn clear because my eyes had to adjust in the darkness and to my fear she was holding her knife in both of her hands, looking somewhat sad and terrified. I was about to reach her and I heard my brother shouted "watch out!" to someone whom I don't if it was for me or Greta. All I know the second later was that she was running to me and attacked me with the knife. Alerted I moved to my side but then I stumbled down and twisted my ankle. It was just in a nick of time when Shori slap her hand that was holding a knife and pull it away from her. I gasped sharply when I realize I couldn't stand up properly, I winced as she stared down at me with teary eyes. My mother was yelling to us and she quickly ran over to Greta, hugging her in desperation. My brother and father was holding me closed and helped me to become steady. I raised my head to look at her and she flinched.

"Why did you want to… do that to me?" I asked. Greta's sobs became louder when she heard me saying that. She quickly freed herself from my mother's hug and ran further from us. I watched her turn to the back door from the kitchen and quickly stand up, ignoring the pain on my ankle.

"I followed her outside, I walked approaching her when she stopped running. What she was said saddened me.

"You hate me now, don't you? Everyone hates me now. So I have no right to stay here any longer to sadden everyone. After all… Greta is unwanted child…" All of us gasped when we heard her saying that. In silence I slowly approached her and kneeled down behind her.

"Turned around, Greta. Let me see your face" She did what I asked her to do andlooked at me. Seeing her tears kept falling down her cheek, I brushed it away try to smile as best as I could. I only say this to her.

"You shouldn't cry you know, Greta. You are cuter when you are smiling. I like your smile a lot. Its make you even cuter, so lovely that I want you to be my daughter" only that and she was staring at me in shock and disbelieve.

"Don't you hate me for doing that to you? I did a horrible thing…" she said with cracked voice.

"Why should I hate you for such thing? Besides its not like you wounded me or something really bad, Its me who just twisted my ankle, not you" I said, smiling at her. Greta's sobbed louder when I pulled her into my embrace. I rubbed her back gently and turned to my parents and brother. They nodded in understanding and approved my decision. That's what happened. When the adoption form was approved, she became my adopted daughter." Yuuri finished and looked at Wolfram's face. He seemed like he was close to tears. Yuuri sweated dropped.

"Are you okay?" Wolfram quickly shook his head.

"I've never knew that she had such a sad past. Her fate was too cruel but ended nicely. You should take care of her very well, Yuuri. She is after all, you daughter." Wolfram said, as if he was scolding him. Yuuri laughed at his behavior.

"Yes, she's like a small sister to me and my daughter also." Yuuri said nodding at him. Wolfram then had a flash of mind he quickly leaned on.

"Wait, this story; when did that happen? If I recall, you said that you move to this dorm when you are in junior high school. How come you are able to think that much about taking her as a daughter? Even I on that age wouldn't think about that." Wolfram said. Yuuri nodded in understanding.

"Yes, when Greta's father passed away, even though I didn't want to go home yet, I'm being force to go home for the cemetery. That time I was in the middle of my last term in my 3rd grade of my junior high school. The same thing happen when I just got in the first year of high school, her mother was remarried, once again I was being force to go home by my brother. I disobeyed him to come to the big wedding ceremony but to my surprised, Shori come to the dorm and force me out of my room. That time was holiday, so not all of the students saw the ruckuses between me and my brother. Murata was the one helping me but ended up being shoved by Shori. Saralegui, Murata's roommates was also there, seeing the whole thing. So that's why he also knows about my problems. I ended up being dragged out by him from the dorm as he was talking about family's outstanding. I only grunted in respond and let him do whatever he whishes for me to do. Muttering that I've never get home (without being force) ever since I move to the dorm, he said something about me shouldn't have moved to the new school after all. I didn't reply him anything, just watching outside the window from his car.

"I forget how many months have passed, that's when I was having my holiday in my house for the second term. That's the time when I was visited Greta to see her. That's when I saw her being beaten up by her step father. Oh yeah, you came in the second term, right?" Yuuri grinned to Wolfram. Wolfram nodded in reply, finally understanding the time line. Yuuri smiled.

"Why didn't you move back to your house when you already have Greta as your daughter? How irresponsible are you, wimp?"

"Ahh about that, I promised Greta that she can come as long as she likes to the dorm and I will keep contact her. She agreed and she keeps sending me postcards since then. She is an understanding child in her age, I'm glad that she is very dependent on herself." Yuuri said.

"Ohh right. Well, that's great, now I want to meet her. She seems to be a very nice girl."

"She is. After all, she is my daughter."

Wolfram snorted at that.

"It's good that she is not following your wimpy-ness." Wolfram teased. Yuuri frowned.

"Hey! Don't call me a wimp!" Yuuri said, shouting. Wolfram laughed and Yuuri laughed also. How he wished she could introduce Greta to Wolfram. He was sure that Greta would like Wolfram a lot.

"Anyway, how many letters have you got anyway? There are so many of it." Yuuri said as he took each letter that was placed on his desk previously.

Wolfram dragged his chair from his desk and sat beside him. He picked one of the letters and flipped it over to read the sender. He groaned in disbelieve.

"This one is from my mother." Wolfram muttered. Yuuri grinned.

"Really? What does your mother look like? And I wonder about your brothers also." Yuuri said. Wolfram's face flustered. He looked down at the other letters.

"Well, they are just normal brothers that are annoying. That's all…" he said. Yuuri pick on that was light blue color and read the sender. His eyes widened.

"Co-Con-" Wolfram quickly snatched the envelope from Yuuri's hand. Yuuri stared at him gapping.

"What? Your brother is… Conrad? That Conrad Weller?!" He shouted at him. Wolfram looked away.

"Wrong person! It's only the same name, okay? Beside, my full name is Bielefeld" Wolfram said, only to make sure that Yuuri believe him. Yuuri sighed in relieve.

"I thought it was that Conrad…" Wolfram watched him suspiciously.

"Even if he was, that doesn't make any different…" he said, rose from his sit and gathering the letters form Yuuri's desk and walked over his desk that was opposites from him.

Yuuri watched him getting a bit nervous, he started to wonder if Wolfram was telling him the truth or not. What if Conrad was really Wolfram's brother? He didn't know if he is, but if he really are a brother from the person he adore very much, then it would be great. Not that he was going to take advantage of him and asking to be put in the big league, but thinking about Wolfram's nervousness, he wonder what make the blond for wanting to hide the fact very much. Did something happen between him and Conrad? He remembered about Wolfram telling him about his brothers always shoving him away and they are some kind of important person. He looked at Wolfram who was now dragging his chair back in front of his desk. He tried to change his topic.

"Wolfram, about practice this Saturday…" Wolfram looked at him from the corner of his eyes.

"I'm sorry, Yuuri, I promised to go out with Elisabeth." he said as he walked toward the door. Yuuri eyebrow rise when he heard him.

"What? Elisabeth? Why? Ah… I mean…"

"Well, she is staying here, so... she was going to go home on this weekend. I'm going to meet her before she leaves" He said without turning around as his hand reaching the door knob. Yuuri hearing every words he was saying, which make him somewhat sure that Wolfram was still…

"Wolfram… you are still into her, aren't you?" Yuuri's question made him froze on where he was standing. Wolfram's hand started to tremble as he held the knob on the door.

"No, really?" Wolfram muttered.

Yuuri felt a wash of jealously go trough him. He rose to his feet and walk to him with an angry look. Wolfram knew Yuuri was approaching him, he slowly let go of his hand from the knob and turned around to face him.

"Wolfram, you are only hurting yourself if you can't-"

"I know!"

Yuuri stopped when Wolfram shouted at him.

"I know that… but why is that have something to do with you? It's not your business." Wolfram clenched his fist and gritted his teeth.

"What did you say?" Yuuri glared at him. He too clenched his fist that was started to tremble as he tried to compose his anger.

"You are saying it is not my business? Well, it is my business! You know how I feel towards you, Wolfram! So it is my business, because I don't like seeing you torn apart." Yuuri said, walking approaching him.

Wolfram could felt that he was moving back to the door that was behind him. Feeling himself trapped between the door and Yuuri, he was not sure what to do, not until Yuuri was directly in front of him. Staring on Yuuri's black eyes, he could felt his heart beating loudly.

"Yuuri… what-"

His eyes widened when Yuuri lean in, pressing his lips against him.

TBC…

Okay... i hope you guys didn't get confuse abut the time line eeheheh... P
