Summary (if needed): Fuji angsting XD
'God, it hurts... It hurts so much, it pains me so hard that I don't want to know, to feel or even care anymore. But despite what I told myself, I still can't help it.'
At times, I wonder why I'm still standing here watching them. Everywhere I go, I see people walking hand in hand. Looking around me, I realized everyone had found their soul mate; true love, but what about me? Where do I stand? Tezuka have Echizen, Eiji have his wonderful partner Oishi.
On second thought, even Atobe have his faithful subordinate, Kabaji, and his lover, Jirou. Hyoutei tennis prodigy have his doubles partner, Gakuto, with him all the time. 'But what of me? What do I have? I have no one, Yuuta left home because of me. Even Inui have Kaidoh, but I have no one. No one but myself.'
'What exactly am I doing here?' I couldn't help but asked myself.
I smile when Oishi showered his love and concern on Eiji, I smile when Inui train with Kaidoh. I smile when Echizen eyed Tezuka with unwavering attention, I smile when Jirou tell me tales of Atobe. I smile when Kabaji obeyed Atobe's orders without a grunt of disagreement. I smile when Oshitari looked at Gakuto with devotion in his eyes.
Hiding behind my smiling mask, my heart was pleading; yearning for love. 'But who knows? No one... After all, no one really cares.'
For days, I've woken up in the middle of night crying. 'I have no one to blame but myself, it's me who have driven Echizen right into the arms of Tezuka. It's because of my sadist streak that Echizen decided to leave me for Tezuka...' Yet, why am I feeling so pained, so empty; as if a part of me was torn apart when Echizen left me...
I continue to smile, despite my heart is breaking in me. The sight of Tezuka and Echizen sharing a kiss was too much for me to bear. Turning away from them, I fled the scene.
