Chapter 3

Its been 3 months since Watari had known Fujimori. They have became really good friends and would see each other almost everyday. They loved to go to lunch and coffee together when they had time. People around the office noticed that they were starting to have a really great friendship. Tsuzuki was happy for him, and even Hisoka noticed the good changes in his mood. But Tatsumi just didn't care, as long as he worked, thats all that mattered.

Watari was in his lab working on some experiment when Fujimori opened the door and came in. "Hey Watari, hows it going?" "Fine as usual." "Well I was wondering... if you would like to go on a picnic at the Cherry Blossom Park with me tomorrow?" "A picnic? You want me to come with you", Watari said in shock. "Wow I'v never been on one before. Tomorrows Sunday right?" "Yeah." " I can make it." "I'll pick you up at your house Watari. Ok." Yeah.

Fujimori had left Watari's lab. Watari was so happy that he was going somewhere special instead of staying at work all the time. It would be like a little break that he felt like he deserved. He felt great and didn't want to work anymore for today so he just took a break in the break room.

He sat down at a table eating a sandwich, then he heard someone behind him. "Hey Watari! Hows it going?" "Oh fine Tsuzuki." "You look happy today. Anything special happen to you." "Well actually yes!" "Tell me tell me, Tsuzuki said." "Well my friend Fujimori invited me on a picnic at the Cherry Blossom Park tomorrow. I'm so excited that I'm doing something different instead of work all the time." "That sounds great Watari. I hope you two have fun. You know, you changed allot, you really have." "What do you mean?" "Your doing more things and going more places now. And Hisoka even says he can feel all the great energy that you have now. Something really great must have happened, and that makes me happy." "Really. Thanks Tsuzuki."

They both ate and left to go back to work. And talking to Tsuzuki really made Watari think. "I guess I haven't been to a lot of places in a long time, but now I'm doing a lot more with my self and thats all that matters now."

Tsuzuki sat down by Hisoka. "Hisoka, I'v noticed it too that Watari is much happier now, and he docent even try to hide how he really feels now because he changed in a good way." "Yeah I agree with you. And he is even going on a picnic with one of his friends now. Isn't that great. I wonder what will happen next."

As Tsuzuki and Hisoka were talking, Tatsumi heard too. "So he is going on a picnic", Tatsumi said. "Yeah, with Fujimori", Tsuzuki said. "Oh, whats so special about it?" "Well usually Watari's depressed, and he docent really do much." "So thats why its important? Were are they having there picnic at?" "The Cherry Blossom Park. What a nice place." "Is that so. Well gotta file some papers." And he left. "Why would he ask why is it so special", said Tsuzuki. "I really don't no", answered Hisoka.

Tatsumi went to his office to read over some files. He came across a very old file about Muraki and the case of Maria Wong. "I hate to think of that man, and what he did to Tsuzuki and Hisoka. Someday I'll kill him and they wont have to think of him anymore. I know he is still alive somewhere. But until then I have to protect those two. I have so much hate for him, I just don't no what to do. I'll kill you, I'll kill the living shit out of you!"

When Tatsumi thinks of Muraki, he always gets angry, and sometimes likes to take it out on other people. He isn't himself when that happens, and its never good to be around.

Later that day when Watari was about to leave when he saw Tatsumi coming towards him. "Yes Tatsumi?" "Are you working tomorrow Watari?" "No, I'm taking the day off." "Oh well, so is most people who already went home today. I need you to come to work tomorrow." "But Tatsumi I have something important to do and..." "To bad I need you here tomorrow or its coming out of your account for lab materials, and you know how much you like that don't you." "But, just let me take tomorrow of ok. I have lots of vacation days and I'll just use that." "No!" "Why? You just want me to stay here and do your work while you get credit for it." "No, I give you work so you don't do anything fucking stupid!"

And the whole room got silent for a moment. Tatsumi just realized what he said, but could care less. "Tatsumi, do you really think I'm that bad? Do you really think its all worthless? I put my hole life into this, and all you do is fuss. I'm not coming to work tomorrow ok. I'm leaving now." Watari went to the door only to be pulled back against wall. Tatsumi garbed Watari's arm and squeezed them real tight. "Tatsumi stop! Your hurting me!" "You little shit. Who do you think you are?" "Tatsumi, what are you doing? Are you going crazy?"

Slap! Was the noise going across Watari's face. Watari fell to the ground.

Now Tatsumi really felt crazy and realized what he had done. "Watari, I'm sorr...I didn't mean too. You don't have to come to work tomorrow. I don't know whats gotten into me lately." Watari had his hands on his cheek, and look up at Tatsumi. "How could you do this to me? What did I ever do to you?" And he left the room. "Watari wait! No I'm sorry. Please forgive me." Tatsumi didn't have the nerves to catch up to him.

Tatsumi was still in the lab. "What have I done? I can't let anger or worse, Muraki get me out of hands. Now look at what I'v done, I'v hit Watari. How will I ever face him again? How can I tell him I'm sorry and make him believe it? I guess I'v made him do a lot of my work, and I have taken all the credit for it, plus I always call whatever he is doing worthless. I can't believe myself." He left the room to his own still thinking of a way to tell Watari sorry. "I know, I'll go to the park tomorrow and tell him I'm sorry. Thats what I will do. I just don't want him to be mad at me. Till then, I better go home and rest for tomorrow."

Tatsumi is going to go to the park tomorrow. Will it be a great choice to go or will disaster strike?
