CHAPTER 11 - Changes

Jenrya's POV

As I said before I had to change, so I did. I had found a job but however I kept thinking about her. I couldn't understand yet. It was almost impossible to get to the point of her will to kill herself.

Working wasn't that easy. My boss was a tiny and bossy man; well I think that's why he is the boss. But today was the most important day for me. It was my promotion day. From the computers technician to the manager of the entire company. As my father had said to me "This is the most important step in that place. Think about the money!"

I was eating my toast when the telephone rang.

"Hello?" I said, holding the phone with a bit of difficulty because my fingers were full of butter.

The person on the other side of the phone didn't answer. I repeated the same 'question'.

"Hello?" I almost yelled.

There was the sound of the phone being hung up and then the silence.

'Great . . . someone has to be the funny one. It's all I need now.' I thought. I was putting on my suit when the doorbell rang. My mother who was just coming out of her room said:

"I'll get it." She opened the door and peeked outside. "Strange . . . nobody's there. Maybe is some of that terrible kids playing a trick." Said my mother a bit stressed out what was really uncommon.

As she saw me taking my wallet she said:

"Have a nice day, son. And good luck."

"Thanks mom." I said while I was getting out of my flat.

"Didn't you forget something?" asked mom and pointed to her cheek.

"Ops . . ." I kissed my mother goodbye and got into the elevator.

I watched myself in the mirror and remembered the day I saw Ruki's face there. It was four years ago and it was still clearly in my mind.

*FLASHBACK* I looked myself in the mirror and saw Ruki's face instead of mine, but it disappeared as fast as I saw it. I got out from the apartment building. I felt myself depressed after seeing her face. It made my heart beat faster and faster.

*END FLASHBACK*

The elevator stopped on the earthy floor and I got out. I didn't have a car yet, but it would be the next item I'll buy now instead of computer games. (A/N: He's still a kid at heart).

I was walking through the crowded streets of New York, looking nowhere in special, just looking at the people passing by me. All this thing of traveling looking for reasons, evidences and stuff made me grew up spiritually. Even if I felt myself like an investigator. But I knew Ruki was kind of watching me, so I didn't have enough courage to find a girlfriend, I know it's weird but I can't help. And everytime I was in dates and I was about to kiss the girl I imagined that I was kissing Ruki, it was frustrating to open my eyes and realize it wasn't her.

I reached 'my' computer company and walked in. Everybody saying 'good luck' for me. It was the most rewarding thing. The director of the company saw me and led me to his office.

"Jenrya, sorry but I have some bad news. The owner of this company thought about your promotion again and he decided to give what would be your task to Ryo Akiyama."

I couldn't believe in what he was saying. It couldn't be Ryo Akiyama. The one I knew years ago.

"Ryo Akiyama, sir?"

"Yep . . ."

"Ok." I said trying to keep my cool attitude towards him.

I got up and turned around to leave the director's office when the door swung open.

"Oh, man. I didn't know I was taking your new task, Jenrya. Well, but even if I knew I would have accept it, the way I did now." Said Ryo, conceited as usual.

"Fuck off." I said and got out of the room, not knowing where to go. Of course now I was fired from that company because I said fuck off to the new manager.

I just didn't have where to go. But my feet were leading me to the Central Park.

In fact, nobody was there; everybody was busy with his or her works. I was thinking of a lot of manners to tell my father about what happened. The idea of Ryo taking everything that was to be mine was terrible. First, he almost dated Ruki, of course I got sad and stuff, but I said, "It's my destiny." But, thank God, she thought he was a completely idiot and turned him down. It was my chance to date her. But she killed herself.

Now I was about to be the manager, and there comes that stupid and take it away from me. I am a loser. That's it. Maybe the Ruki did is easier. I'll do like her. But I don't have enough courage. I'll talk to my father.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

"So, how was your day son?" asked my father waiting patiently.

"I got fired." I said looking at my food and playing with it with my fork.

"Why?" he asked.

"Because I said to the new manager, the one who took my place, to fuck off. In fact, I don't if I really got fired but I stormed out of the company to the Central Park."

"Right. Ok, I can run your life. You're young and you can find a good job in another place." My father said in a disapproval tone.

"Can I visit Takato in Japan? He told he is going to visit his cousin Kai in Okinawa and I thought it would a good idea. You know, to try to forget about what happened."

"You have your money. Why don't you buy your own ticket?"

I got up and I went to my room to pack my bags.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

"So, here you are!!!! I thought you would never come back here again. Takato told me what happened. The girl, your job. But here you can forget about everything." Kai (A/N: he appeared in the Digimon movie.) said just like Takato who was in the sea hugging Juri.

"They are a cute couple." I changed the subject.

"Yeah. What about having dinner? I'm starving."

"Me too." I answered. I was ready to say goodbye to everybody.

We had a wonderful dinner made by Takato's grandfather and Kai. I waited until everybody went to sleep and sneaked out of the house.

The breeze of the sea was cold but I went in all the way. When the water reached my legs I stopped to hear the silence. Why does everything get so beautiful when you are ready to go?

I swam to the middle of the ocean, it was freezing but I was going to die anyway.

I didn't return to the surface again. I just lay there in the sea watching the movie of my life. A lot of scenes were rushing through my mind. The digimons, the battles, the momantai thing, Ruki's death, Ryo getting in the office saying he was the new manager.

I stopped breathing. Everything was going black.

A light came and a red haired shadow took me by the hand, I didn't know where I was going to but I let this person take me wherever she was going.

End of the chapter. For those who didn't understand it, Jenrya killed himself too. Well, almost in the end of this story. But I'm writing another one to publish here, maybe the first chapter explaining what's going to happen is already published. Ja ne!!!
