Part
8
It was morning in the beginning
of the November when there seen a certain brunette was shoving food into Ran's
parted mouth.
"Aww c'mon Ran, just a few
gulps? Please? You couldn't be healed if you keep this way..."
The redhead didn't look at the
brunette beside him. He looked down to his own body, bandages everywhere and
none of it make sense.
He was told that he got that
bruises of an accident in the flowershop but... it really doesn't make sense.
Why he can get bruised THAT badly if there's only a simple accident in the
so-called flowershop he works for? Or at least that's what this stranger told
him.
"You said you are my friend in
some kind flowershop. My name is Fujimiya Ran and I work as a leader in a
flowershop called Koneko no Sumu Ie. But...what's more? Where's my family?
Why the one who visits me everyday is you while my family is not here?"
"Uhm that..." he stopped,
remembering that he couldn't possibly tell Ran that he's a murderer and his
family is all already died except of his sister that survived and now live
somewhere else, thinking that her oniichan is dead. He couldn't tell him that
they work as assassins in Weiß. He shrugged.
Then suddenly, the door to his
room was opened. A figure of lanky blonde and the little one beside him
appeared.
"Yo Aya, I've survived in
death! That crazy monsters are really killing me..."
"Ne Ran-kun, you are okay? Last
night is rough ne?"
The redhead blinked. He looked to
the soccer player beside him. "I thought my name is Ran? Why he's calling me
Aya? And who are they? What does he mean by monster? What the hell happened
yesterday?"
Yohji and Omi looked at each
other. Ken gave them a meaningful look, "Uhh that's a long story. Ran, can
you wait for awhile here? I want to talk to them."
Not waiting for a reply, Ken
dragged his blonde teammates out of Ran's room.
***
"What the HELL??"
"Yeah Yohji, he's got
amnesia. Remember when he fell down to the floor? It did hurt him hard."
"Uhm okay Ken-kun, but...how
are we going to tell him that he's a murderer like us?"
Ken looked at the smaller blonde.
He sighed. "Now that's what I've been trying to solve in these past
hours...I couldn't do that. That's too cruel. What about his family? His
imouto? What am I going to say to him?"
"Hum...I heard that if someone
got amnesia, and he saw something that means a lot to him, it will reminds him
of something and eventually work back."
"But Omiitchi, the thing that
means a lot to Ran is..."
Ken shuddered at Yohji's
demand. Yohji himself, when he realized what he's going to say, paused.
Sometimes he acted faster than he thought.
Omi continued the sentence that
his two older teammates couldn't finished, almost whispering, "...His
imouto..."
The three Weiß minus their
leader looked down in desperation.
***
Ken walked back into the room.
He saw his redhead leader there,
sitting on the bed with look to the outside world. Ken approached and took the
seat he was sitting beside Ran. He glanced to the redhead.
/He's still beautiful.../
"What are you looking at?"
Ken asked to the glancing redhead.
"Hum..." he paused, "That
brother-sister is playing with each other. And I just...somehow felt sad to
myself...it's like I couldn't get back to their times, like it's taken
away from me. Like...I'm not a normal person...as if I'm dead."
Ken was hurt. He looked down,
really, really couldn't tell him the truth.
"Funny...but I'm also an
average man right? Hah, a young lad who works for a flowershop...just normal."
The redhead turned to his so-called friend and smiled. Ken shivered, lacked to
guiltiness that kept creeping up more and more in his heart.
"Umm Ran, I'm getting you out
of this hospital, let's just go out later ok? I will show you the flowershop,
and maybe you can remember something."
Ken smiled reassuringly, to Ran
and himself, that's everything would be okay. He got up and packed the things,
putting Ran's Weiß uniform deep inside the plastic bag after covering it with
a black plastic.
He needs to get the hell outta
there, before he gone crazy of guilt and before the hospital crews find out that
they are nowhere in the list of the Japan census.
***
They arrived in front of the
Koneko soon enough. Ran stood in front of the Koneko no Sumu Ie firmly, with
bandages on his arm and another one covering some of his red strands hair. He
blinked.
"This is...Koneko?"
Ken moved off his motorbike and
smiled at the blinking Ran. Even when he's got amnesia he's still look very
beautiful.
"Yep, it is Koneko. You like to
sit there," he pointed to the seat near with the cashier machine, "and count
money endlessly while growling at us who don't work well."
The redhead chuckled, "I like
to do that, don't I?"
Ken smiled bigger, "Yeah, and
you love to water those roses on the right and you always went out for some
coffee or if it's your shift then you would order us to make some coffee for
you in 2 PM. You glared that deathglare of yours at us if we give you any kind
of coffee other than hot brewed latte."
"Oh...ne, you remember it
all?"
Of course he does. Everyday he
spent his time on observing the redhead leader, he knows everything about him,
even more than the leader himself does. He smiled.
"Yeah, I like to observe people
a lot, Yohji likes to tease me that I'm nosier than his mother."
Ran smiled, soon he got into the
Koneko and he looked around. He saw a jacket, a very familiar jacket. He took it
and smelled it. Somehow, a vision came up upon him...
//"Ah…gomen for waking you
up." That was all came up from Ran's lips when he saw Ken with only his
pants and white tank top on. The boy looked at the redhead leader in
astonishment. Ran smiled in his heart and handed Ken the jacket. Ken widened his
eyes at the jacket.
"This is yours, right?"
Ken shuddered. "Aa, y-yeah."
"You shouldn't have cover me
up when you have no extra jacket for yourself. You can catch a cold."
"H-hai, gomen…"// [1]
"Ran?"
The voice that called him
startled him, making him to wake from his reverie. He looked at the brunette who
stood beside him with concerned look on his face. He shoved the jacket to the
younger lad and asked, "Whose jacket is this?"
"Huh? A-Aa, that's mine.
Why?"
"Uhm...betsuni, nandemonai. I
just saw a vision and...it kinda involves in this jacket thingy."
Ken observed the redhead. He knew
the very well that the very jacket which Ran's holding now is the one that he
used to cover Ran when he fell asleep in the Koneko for waiting for the rest of
his teammates to come home, or...in a more selfish thought, for him to come
home. He smiled.
Ran noticed the smile, but
preferred not to say anything and asked again, "Did you ever do something to
me that involves this jacket?"
***
"Did you ever do something to
me that involves this jacket?"
Now this is his chance.
This is the chance to admit that
everything Ken does involve a certain redhead called Fujimiya Ran. The very
redhead leader that now standing in front of him, even still with his
beautifulness on when he lost his memory, giving him the chance to confess. He
gulped.
/Should I tell him? Should I tell
him that I put that jacket once on his back when he's asleep...and I cried for
him, because this urge to have him for myself is growing insanely? Should I?/
Yes, this is the chance that
maybe will never come again. He has to do this sooner or later so... why bother?
He stood firmly before the redhead and clenched his fists. Taking a deep breath,
he looked straight to the violet gaze. He opened his lips.
"Yes Ran, I covered you with
that jacket when you fell asleep one day, just to show you how much I..."
The main door to the Koneko
opened, revealing the last person Ken wanted to see right here, right now.
Tsukiyono Omi.
"Ken-kun...?"
Ken widened his eyes at the
ocean-eyed blonde that has this look of unbelievable façade on his innocent
smooth face. Ken cursed himself silently.
/Kuso!! Omi! I forgot about
Omi...his feelings for Ran, our friendships...AGH! Baka Ken!!!/
"A-Aa, Omi... you
are...early."
"Uhn..."
Omi moved closer to the older
guys and approached his leader. He smiled his genki smile and tapped his redhead
leader on his shoulder, making the older guy to widen his eyes.
"Konnichiwa Ran-kun! Genki desu
ka? Must be hard ne? But that's really okay...this will end soon."
"Eh? What do you mean?" Ran
asked, blinking at the younger blonde.
"Hum, we will take you to the
places where you might recall anything, and then you surely will be okay! Right
Ken-kun?"
/What's that look in Omi's
eyes...? He knows it, he knows I also love Ran...Kami-sama, what should I do
now?? What the hell I must do to solve this??/
"Uh...yeah..."
Omi's smile grew wider. He
slipped his arms to the soccer player's arm and dragged him out after making
an excuse to his leader and hissed at the protesting brunette. Omi pulled Ken to
the mission room and stared at his older brunette teammate.
"Ken-kun I need to talk to
you."
"Aa... about what?"
"You know it."
/So yes I do...but I...don't
want to believe that we must.../
"No I don't."
"See? You are running away."
/...fight for love.../
"No I don't"
"You are repeating yourself,
you ARE running away and you won't admit it."
"No. I. Don't."
"You know that you love
Ran-kun."
"...no I don't know..."
"I just need you to be honest
to me, if you do love Ran-kun, just admit it!"
/and make you hurt? It's not
that simple Omi.../
"No..."
"I know you love Ran-kun. But
is it that big? Do you love Ran-kun that much? You might be fussing around,
couldn't you?"
"..."
***
/Kami-sama...Ken-kun is just so
hard! I need to do this, if Ken-kun confesses to Ran-kun in this halfway
feeling, they won't last for long. I just need Ken to be more selfish and
centers on his own life now. He won't be happy if he keeps thinking about
others and sacrifices himself. Not even me. He deserves a happiness, and if he
will not let anyone give him, I will the be the one who will force it to him./
There's a fight in Ken's soul
now. From making his own happiness or his friend's happiness. At the usual
state, he would let his friend gets the happy part and sacrifices himself but...
this is not some kind of small things he's considering now, this is about Ran.
Fujimiya Ran, their redhead leader that he had fallen in love onto since the
first fight. The one that he dreamt about every single night.
And oh for God's sake, how Ken
wants Ran, not giving him onto someone else.
Not even his very own best
friend, but... Omi's different. And the young blonde also deserve some
happiness, maybe more than he did. He bit his lips. Omi tugged his sleeves
annoyed at the brunette who thinks too much of the others until he forgot about
himself. Omi sighed.
/Gomen Ken-kun but I have to do
this.../
"So you don't love Ran-kun?
You don't dream on him every night?"
/This will hurt but... oh God
Ken-kun, I need you to be happy. Please, make this easy and accept it, think
about yourself for just once! Just this bloody time! Onegaisimasu!!/
"...iie..."
/AUGH! Ken-kun no baka!/
"So I can have him?" Omi put
a stern gaze, swearing himself that if this time Ken doesn't protest or say
anything, he will beat the crap out of the soccer player. Maybe in that way Ken
could think about himself for just once. Omi gritted his teeth in a condition of
non-patience.
4 minutes passed and there's no
word that came onto Ken's lips. Omi's anger filled him quickly.
/This is going to hurt like hell,
Ken-kun.../
The blonde took a step toward the
brunette and soon...
***
Ran moved around the Koneko,
observing one by one properties in it. He tried to recall a thing but when he
tried to do so, his head feels like being hit by a hammer and it really
intrigued him in saying or thinking anything. Then when he took a seat and
relaxed for awhile, he saw the mirror again.
Red, bloody coloured hair with
deep purple gaze as his observer and a long earring on his left ear. He blinked.
/Earring... why am I wearing this
earring? And only on my left...?/
Then in a swift move, a vision
came into his violet eyes again.
//"Ran-niichan! Come here!"
Her dark strands danced with the
night wind and Ran never seen any more beautiful imouto than his own. He smiled
at his sister's act, then when they set home...
Their parents are dead. And...a
bomb ticking, a blast, his sister...
"AYA!!!!"//
"Aya!"
He cried that name without even
knowing whose that name belongs to. He panted.
/What the hell was that?
Aya...imouto... Takatori.../
Again, the pain stroked him.
//"Aya!!! You okay? Ow God,
that was one so close blast! You could get yourself killed!! Now get your butt
out there and take my hand!!"
He shoved his hands to his leader
who was injured on his head. Aya's vision started to blur out but this feeling
for him, this feeling for Ken, never felt so real. He smiled at the brunette who
was dragging him out of the crunched car.
"That's it Fujimiya Aya!
That's the last time I'm letting you take this mission alone!!"
Calmly smiling, the redhead
smiled at the brunette more and whispered, "...my name is Ran...it's over
Ken, Takatori...Aya...it's all over..."
Then he fainted, remembering the
last look of surprise in Ken's mimic and a simple blush. He knows...and will
always know that...he...no matter what...
...loves Ken...//
He widened his eyes. Suddenly, all the memories...came back to
him, filling his heart and brain about what happened in this few years. Just a
few short years. How life can make some unwanted surprise for him.
He's Fujimiya Ran, once took
his sister's name in a vomit that he will take revenge on his coma sister and
dead parents. He was once cold, once never could love, a perfect murderer with
no feelings but sadness and anger. He, the one who used to believe that nothing
could make a man strong except for revenge.
Until he met Hidaka Ken, the so
full of life, hyper and genki lad, who never think about himself and willing to
sacrifice his body for a child soul, who likes to smile a sunny smile, who likes
to play soccer and teach it to children, who's the one that he loves so much.
Who's become the one that
shines his dark past and break his mask since...he can't really remember.
"K-Ken..."
Putting a finger on his parted
lips, he envied the moment where he whispered a certain someone's name. He
smiled to himself. Yes. Ken. The only, and will always be, one who he loves. He
got up, wanting to go to the mission room and settle his feelings right now with
his brunette teammate...
...when suddenly he heard
someone's being punched violently from the mission room.
