"Why?........Why him?.......Why me?........Why us?!"
Yuki was leaning towards Mikuru, her brown eyes gazing into Mikuru's soul, she was bewildered, she couldn't believe it..Neither could I..
I fell back straight onto my ass...My mouth wide open from the sheer shock..
"Haruhi Suzumiya..Likes me?...I cant believe her....Me of all people..Why?"
After all this time I'd known her, she never told me..She let Mikuru tell me, or rather, Mikuru took it upon herself to tell us.
"...Mikuru, how did you find out?.."
She sat down in the grass, and stared at me, holding her hands to her heart.
"Every time she sees you, Koizumi feels closed spaces appearing, but for some reason, the celestials do not form..Instead, it is only her and you, in the whole of the space...She loves you..."
What the?...This isnt happening..No fu..No way! I don't see why Haruhi would do this to me, OR Yuki...But, I guess she does not know..this isn't her fault...It isnt!
I turned to see Yuki, her palms below he chin, and tears streaming from her face.
Her hair was beginning to fall over her face from the light rain.
She looked into the sky for a second...The rain falling into her eyes.
She didn't blink..
"That..M..Means we, Cant be...Together, Kyon.."
What?! What does she mean!?..N..No...
"I'm sorry, but we..We cant..If Suzumiya-San..Becomes..J..Jealous..I will lose more than just..You."
Each word was akin to a knife in the stomach...
Was she breaking up with me?!
"I'm sorry..K..Kyon, I don't think we..S..Should see..Each other.."
"But we arnt even dating! You never said we were!"
"..Di..Did I have too?.."
Mikuru realised what was happening, and left us in private, walking herself out of the park..
I fell back, trying to keep tears from forming in my eyes.
"Your lying...Your lying.."
She wiped her eyes with her sleeve..
"We... cant be together!.... EVER again!"
She came closer, to me, sobbing loudly, crying like a child.
"I mean it! I don't want to be human! I don't want to know you! I cant lose everyone!"
She came even closer, her sobs becoming louder.
"I love you with every inch of my heart, please believe that, but the fate of the world, rests on US! And I cannot take the risk..Of losing 6 Billion people!"
"I cant, I cant!..I..Im sorry...K..Kyon...S..Sorry.."
"Were has this come from!? Why is this so sudden!? Why now?!"
She stood up, the pain looked to be to much for her, and for me, tears fell down my face too.
For the first time in my life, I knew what it was like to lose something close to your heart.
Something you love.
Something you cherish.
You Adore.
You care for with all your heart.
Gone.....
Gone.....
Gone......
I stood up, grabbing her arms.
"You cant do this!..We cant let someone like Haruhi do this to us!"
She grabbed my wrist in self defence and easily threw me with force onto the ground, splashing me into a giant mud puddle, the mud engulfed my entire body, even my hair.
I stood up, grabbing Her shirt as leverage.
"This is a fucking joke..I cant believe you..After everything we have done..Everything I have done!"
She stepped back, stopping her crying for a few seconds.
"Y....You selfish bitch!..H..How can you do this!"
I made the mistake of grabbing her shoulders, and shaking her backwards and forwards, whilst shouting at her.
Her mouth was open, and her eyes were crying sweet innocence..
She was in shock, this wasn't me..What I was doing was wrong....So wrong..
A single tear came from her left eye, and landed on my hand.
It rain onto my index finger, and stayed there.
"Kyon...P..Please Stop...Please!"
The tear stayed on my finger. Clinging onto me.
Just as I clung onto Yuki.
"PLEASE STOP IT!!"
Within a fraction of a second, I was on the ground...
She punched me in the stomach, crying as she landed the punch.
I keeled over, clutching where she hit me.
It was almost in slow motion after that...The crying was unbearable...I couldnt listen to her crying..I couldnt...It made my soul itself cry tears of sadness.
She took two steps back, and fell into the puddle, crying. her little eyes out.
Soaked through, sobbing like a child.
She snapped.
She finally knew what it was like to break down..To lose something you loved.
She stood up, and ran.
She ran.
"...Im...Sorry.."
Those were the last, faint words I heard from Yuki..for 3 days...
3 days.
72 Hours.
However many Minutes...
In 3 days..The story of Yuki Nagato will begin anew.....The story of recuperation.
Of how everything became perfect again.
