Mid afternoon light shoned its way through the window of a hospital ward and onto a pair of figures sitting down inside, they sat facing each other with a table separating them. One of them had fair skin, dark hair, and an eyepatch, while the other was brown skinned with brown and red hair.
"Why?" The brunnette eventually spoke up.
"Eh?"
"Why are you doing this? Why do you keep !insisting! on being friendly with me?!" He stood up angrily. The ravennette is actually taller than him and yet, Mitsutada still cowers in fear at the furious man before him.
"Stop acting like we're friends because we're not!" He slammed his fist on the table making Mitsutada flinch.
"I've hurt you! MULTIPLE times! And yet you still kept coming back!" Ookurikara continued to scream at Mitsutada.
"I've insulted you, I've bullied you, I've broke your bones, I've even burned your eye!" He pointed at Mitsutada's eyepatch, "What does it take for you to stop bothering me?!"
"I'm sorry!" Mitsutada stuttered out. "It- It's just that when I came back, your room was empty, you didn't leave any notes or messages, and I wasn't able to contact your phone, so I went to Tsuru san's place..."
! There he goes again, does this bitch ever shut up? !
Ookurikara's eyes then travels to the glass of water sitting on the bedside table nearby. He quickly threw the glass at Mitsutada's head, which he promptly dodged, it shatters again the wall behind instead.
"Guess you still have some desire to live after all." Ookurikara quips coldly.
"I- Akh!" Mitsutada began, but was interrupted when a fist suddenly collides with his cheek, knocking him off the chair. It stings, it hurts, it feels like electricity ran up on one side of his face.
Then, before he could comprehend what happened, Ookurikara started kicking him.
One of the blows to his stomach made him gagged, he felt like vomiting onto the floor right at that moment.
The kicks suddenly stops, Ookurikara then grabs Mitsutada's hair and looks into his one healthy eye. "Why aren't you screaming for help?"
"Be- Because-" Ookurikara lets go of Mt head, it landed on the floor with a loud thump, Mitsutada could feel a bump on his temple.
Ookurikara proceeds to deliver more kicks to his body.
"Why are you so stupid?"
A kick in the ribs.
"Go ahead, cry for help."
Another kick, and another.
"WHY WON'T YOU SCREAM FOR HELP?!"
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Mitsutada sobs out, tears welling up in his eyes. Is it from pain? He's not really sure, all he knows is that everything hurts, his back, his chest, his heart. He is trying to think of ways to appease the man attacking him, but its hard to think when he is constantly assaulted, all he can do is just curl up on the ground and try to shield himself from the blows.
Ookurikara was about to beat the ravennette some more, when two hospital staffs immediately came in and restrain him, meanwhile a nurse went over to check on Mitsutada.
"Are you okay sir?" The nurse asked, looking over Mitsutada in concern.
"I'm fine." He told the nurse who helps him stand up. But his disarray figure says otherwise, his eyes are red from crying, the mark from when Ookurikara hit him is still visibly on his face, and there are most likely bruises under his shirt as well.
"See what happens?" Ookurikara spat. "You should stay away from me if you know what's good for you."
"Sir, maybe you should end your visit here." The nurse said. She kept glancing at Ookurikara cautiously as if he were a beast ready to kill them at any moment.
She's not wrong to think that way.
"Wait, I-" Mitsutada then winces in pain as he touches his ribs, "... Alright."
The nurse supports him on the way to the door. But before he leave, he turns towards Ookurikara. "Ookurikara..."
Ookurikara stares at him.
"... Get well soon, okay?" Mitsutada gave him a sympathetic smile.
Mitsutada's smile at the end felt like a dozen knives stabbing Ookurikara's heart all at once.
The nurse escorts Mitsutada out of the room, leaving Ookurikara with the two hospital staffs holding him down. They eventually let go of him, but they still stick around and watch over him like prison guards. A few minutes later the nurse came back to scold him for his behavior.
"Don't hurt your visitors! Do you want to end up in solitary confinement with a straight jacket?!"
Ookurikara contemplates her warning, patients in solitary confinement aren't allowed visitors, maybe then Mitsutada will stop trying to see him.
The nurse rubs her temples. "Let me remind you one last time, don't hurt visitors or the staff, otherwise we will have to put you in solitary confinement. Is that clear?"
"... Yes." Ookurikara answered quietly.
The nurse frowns and sighs. "Remember to take your medications kid."
She and the other two hospital staffs finally leaves Ookurikara's ward.
After everybody leaves, Ookurikara slumps down on one of the chairs from earlier. He rubs his face with his hand.
The image of Mitsutada curled up on the floor as he takes every abuse Ookurikara gave him flashes in his mind.
! That bitch never learns does he? !
"What a fucking idiot."
