Chapter 5
Dearest
It was the umpteenth time that she ran away from him. Or maybe she was just running from the problem? "He came back for me." Ruki muttered to herself. 'I felt something when I left him. How many times have I been debating internally?' she sighed as she lied down on her covers. She looked up the ceiling thinking when she ran away once from him.
-Flashback-
Renamon is fighting inside the battlefield, Ruki stood outside with Culumon
Jen: Ruki, what are you doing here? Who's in there? Is it Renamon?
Ruki shakes, grabs her D-Arc and ran away
Jen: Ruki!!
-End of Flashback-
'I ran away from the problem.'

"Jen!" Shuichon Lee shouted as she saw her brother entering the room, seeing the look on his face she knew something was up. "Jenrya what happened?"
"It's nothing." Jenrya replied tonelessly, "just my own stupid problems."
"Jen." Shuichon studied his brother. He looked distressed, as if he had lost something important in his life and he cannot survive without it. "Please tell me, what's wrong?"
"I'm going back tomorrow." Jenrya replied as he sat on the sofa. "Back to where I'm suppose to be."
"You've done what you want to do here already?" Shuichon asked, looking agonizingly at his brother.
"Yes Shuichon," he said almost in a whisper, just audible for Shuichon to hear. "now go to bed, you can still stay in Japan if you want to."
"Thanks Jen." She said as she continued to look at her brother, still not convinced that he is all right, she settled herself inside the covers as Jenrya headed towards the showers. 'This is so sad.' Even though her brother didn't tell her, she knew that it was some kind of love problem, and she had this thought that Jenrya knew that she knew. 'Wish they can be together, whoever it is.'
The second time walking up this path to the hotel, Ruki was more confused than ever. Now her legs are uncontrollably taking her to Jenrya's hotel, which she had absolutely no idea what will happen when she arrived. What will she say? What will he say? What is she going to do? They both promise not to see each other again, and now the next day she's going to find him. 'This does not make sense at all. Is my decision wrong?' Looking at the ground, she wondered as she entered the grand hotel. She almost step back out, but some kind of force told her not to. Ignoring every voice in her mind, which some of them were telling her not to go, and some vice-versa. She managed to shut them all up when she reached Jenrya's hotel room. She could hear the faint sound of the TV.
---
"Bye Jenrya," Shuichon said as her brother was ready to go out the door back to China, "I'll be back in a week."
"Goodbye Shuichon," Jenrya looked down at his little no longer six-year old but a young teenage girl, who was a head shorter than him.
"Jen? Are you sure? Are you willing to leave like this?" Shuichon said, hoping that she can persuade his brother to change his mind.
There was silence between them, until Jenrya shakily replied with a rather unpersuasive yes. "There's nothing I can do. I came back for her, and all she does is push me away. I think she will live better without me in her life."
"Sorry Jen," Shuichon apologized with her head down. "I just hate seeing you like that. Like when we first left Japan."
"It's alright Shuichon," he glanced at his watch, "I better go now, see you in a week. Be careful."
Shuichon nodded as she watched her depressed brother picking up his things and closing the door behind him. She lied on the bed for a while before she got bored and turned on the TV, also thinking what she can so to save his brother from utter depression when she gets back to China. She'll have to see a zombie everyday.
The same thoughts rushed through Ruki's mind over and over again as she heard the TV sound from Jenrya's hotel room. That meant that she had no way of turning back. He was there for sure this time. Slowly she raised her hand and knocked on the door, feeling a shiver going down her spine. 'What am I going to do? What am I going to say?'
But she never expected a girl to open the door. "May I help you?" she asked politely. Ruki suddenly wondered if this was the wrong room, but then something hit her mind. This girl. familiar. looks like a bit Chinese. "Shuichon?"
Shuichon stared at the older girl. "Is this. Ruki?"
"Yeah . I didn't see you last time." Ruki replied.
Shuichon raised her eyebrows. "Last time?"
"Last time I. came here." Ruki tried to avoid mentioning sleeping here.
"Oh I was staying at my friend's house." Said Shuichon. 'Why is Ruki here?'
"Oh is Jenrya here?" Ruki asked rather nervously.
"Jen? He's gone. He'd just left, he's going back to China." Shuichon told Ruki as she observed the expression on Ruki's face. Even though she hid it quite well Shuichon could still see she winced when she mentioned Jen left. Probably this was from her brother, she learnt to read people's expressions quite well.
"Oh really." Said Ruki rather disappointed or relieved, she didn't know.
"Ruki-chan?" Shuichon started suddenly, looking straight into Ruki's eyes, "My brother. He loves you more than anything else. He's going crazy without you. Please Ruki-chan, don't push him away. The last things he wants to do is to hurt you. Please trust him and give it a try. Please. you can still catch him now. please." Shuichon said, tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Shuichon, you must understand that nothing lasts forever. I can't trust anyone, they will all hurt you at the end. It's not Jenrya's problem, it's only my problem. I'm not perfect, he is. I can't do it. I just can't." Ruki said, her eyes softened. She felt sorry for Shuichon, but there's nothing she can do.
Shuichon rubbed her tears away. "It's OK, I have no right to force you to do things anyways, I'm just really worried about Jen."
"I understand. But I'm sorry Shuichon I can't.I can't get through myself." Ruki trailed off. "I better go now." Ruki gave the helpless girl one more look before turning back and leaving Shuichon staring blankly at the corridor. "Ruki-chan. Jen. why."

Hontou ni taisetsu na mono igai
It would be nice if we could throw away
---
Ruki felt tears forming in her eyes. Something that had not happened for a long time. 'He won't hurt me .will he?' This time however without hesitation, she waved for a cab and climbed in. "Airport please."
---
Subete suttee shimartara ii no ni ne
everything but what is most important
---
Ruki leaned against the seat while the taxi went top speed towards the airport. She thought of all the things they've done together. How much he cared about her.
---
Genjitsu wa tada zankoku de sonna toki itsu date me wo tojireba Reality is just cruel, but whenever I close my eyes
---
-Flashback-
When Ruki was running towards Harpymom with a stick.
Jen: What you wanna do?
Then Harpymon turns around.
Takato: Be careful!
Jen: Ruki!!!
-End of Flashback-
---
Waratteru kimi ga iru
You're there, smiling
---
-Flashback-
He phoned her, just to tell her that Renamon might be back.
Ruki: who is this? (pause) oh Jenrya
Jen: You must come out now, I phoned Takato already.
Ruki: OK
-End of Flashback-
---
Aa itsuka eien no nemuri ni tsuku hi made
Ah- I hope your smiling face is with me
---
-Flashback-
They met on the street, with Ruki's grandma.
Ruki: What are you doing here?
Jen: Ruki? Oh I just wanted to study something, what a coincidence.
Ruki: I've just finished my lessons
Grandma: (bows) how are you?
Jen: I'm fine thank you. Oh yeah Takato and the others are at the park. Do you want to come?
Grandma: Yeah go on
Ruki: Thanks.
Ignoring her mother on the cell phone, she runs off with Jenrya.
-End of Flashback-

Douka sono egao ga taemanaku are you ni
Until the day I fall into eternal sleep
---
-Flashback-
During the battle with Vikaralamon.
Ruki: What cards should we use now?
Jen: Cards represent the power that we believe.
Ruki: Huh?
Jen: If we don't believe our powers, there's no difference between having cards and no cards (looks at Ruki). That's right, we need to have confidence for the card that can help out partners to appear. The confidence is passed though the D-Arc to our partners, and our partners can feel it as well
Ruki: That's right
And they card slash together.
-End of Flashback-
---
Hito wa mina kanashii ka na? Wasure yuku iki mono dakedo
Are all people sad? They are forgetful creatures.
---
As the taxi stopped Ruki immediately climbed out the taxi and ran towards the airport ignoring the tears and everyone. She went to find the departure sigh: HONG KONG - NOW BOARDING
---
Ai subeki mono no tame ai wo umeru mono no tame dekiru koto
For that which you should love, for that which gives love: give it your all
---
"Attention please," said a woman's voice through the microphone, "Flight JL 739 to Hong Kong, passengers may board at gate 27," Jenrya stood up slowly, not wanting to leave his seat, not wanting to leave Japan, not wanting to leave Ruki all by herself, but he had no choice. He was supposed to be in the gates already. He looked around, hoping to see Ruki, but he knew, that would never happen. Unless there was a miracle.
---
Aa deatta ano koro wa subete ga bukiyou de
Ah- when we met we were so awkward
---
'They're boarding already. Jenrya must have went in the gates already.' Ruki thought as she made her way through the crowd to the gates, 'Why am I so stupid?'
---
Toomawari shita yo ne kizutsuke atta yo ne
We've taken the long road; we've hurt each other
---
Jenrya looked back once more, before reluctantly gave his boarding pass and passport to the security guard. 'Goodbye Ruki, hope you have a good life.'
---
Ah itsuka eien no nemuri ni tsuku hi made
Ah- I hope your smiling face is with me
---
Ruki continued to run. She didn't want him to walk out of her life again. Maybe she didn't care before, but now she was certain that she did.
---
Douka sono egao ga taemanaku aru yo ni
Until the day I fall into eternal sleep
---
-Flashback-
"Gonna say anything?" Jenrya turned to Ruki, "I'm leaving."
"Well . um."she stammered, obviously thinking of the right words to say to the blue haired boy, "Take care." She said sheepishly.
"Is that all?" Jenrya sounded disappointed, but he didn't really expect much from her anyways, after all, this was Ruki, and they were just friends who don't really talk to each other. "Well I have something to tell you." He looked straight into her cold amethyst eyes. "You're never alone. There's always your friend, me."
-End of Flashback-
---
Ah deatta ano koro wa subete ga bukiyou de
Ah- when we met we were so awkward
---
She arrived at the gates finally, her hair all messed up and tears rolled down her cheeks. But there was no sight of the blue haired boy. The person that she had just figured out that might be the most important person in her life. And now she lost him. 'Now I'm alone again. All by myself just because I cannot give up my pride.'
---
Toomawari shita kedo tadori tsukeru made
We've taken the long road, but we've finally arrived
La-ha-- lalala
---
"We've taken a long road, we've hurt each other, but we never arrived."
---
Takki's notes: Sad. Sad. Maybe some of you don't think it's sad. But I think it is. I don't care. Last chapter. Dunno if it will have an epilogue, depends on reviews. Not really but I'll see. I sound so gloomy now. OH well never mind me. I hope every single of you enjoyed this story and I'm sorry about all the grammar/vocab skills that I have (they SUCK). I am going to start a new Jenruki fic. But I still can't think of the details. My brain is fried after finishing Never Alone. It's the last chapter so please review. Thanks and JENRUKI FOREVER!!!!!!
