Part seven: Dispose
As Misaki reenter the professor's room a Doctor walk past him and gave the young man a smile. Misaki smile back and walk straight towards to his partner Akihiko. The silver hair man help get his disabled friend onto the wheel chair.
"Usagi, where are you taking Kamijou-san to?" the man question.
The author looks down and ruffles his lover's chocolate thick hair. This caught the professor's attention. Akihiko looks at Misaki so differently than him. Like if he was in love? Hiroki shook his head and thought that was nonsense. Why would Akihiko go for someone that looks stupid but that might explain his love for Takehiro? Hiroki made a conclusion that his friend is into the idiot type. He doesn't even know this man so he shouldn't judge and possibly it is just his imagination running wild on what Akihiko expression was about.
"We're going outside to get him some fresh air. Join us."
Misaki nodded and open the door for them to exit out of the dull white room. It took a while to find the garden center but once they did the nurse stopped them.
"I'm sorry; it's far too late for a patient to be going outside. Please wait until tomorrow."
The professor frown at the nurse thinking if he stare at her with the evil eye long enough she will go away. Obviously that didn't work. He shrugs it off and look up to his beloved friend.
"Alright, take me back Akihiko. I'll just go tomorrow."
Akihiko did as told and return him to his room. As they got there Misaki offered him cafeteria food and went ahead to go get it. Hiroki stared at him as he exit and look up to Akihiko.
"Who is that anyways?"
The author raised his eyebrows in disbelief.
"Takehashi Misaki, you don't remember him?"
Hiroki shook his head.
"No, why would I? Wait… isn't that Takehiro's brat?"
Akihiko frown upon those words.
"You mean brother? Yes."
"Wasn't he supposed to be 10 not someone in their teens or possibly early 20's?"
The puzzle is possibly solved with what Hiroki just said. If he does not remember Nowaki and barely even knows who Misaki is. It is a possibility that perhaps Hiroki has only lost his memory where he met Nowaki and beyond. He might even think he is still 20 years old going to college.
"Hiroki, do you remember Professor Miyagi Yoh?"
"No, doesn't ring a bell"
"How old are you?"
"I don't remember."
Maybe he lost more than Akihiko imaged. Misaki came in with a tray of watery rice, cooked vegetables fruit.
"Here, I'm not sure if you can eat harder food like meat."
The man place it on Hiroki's lap and unwrap the silverware along with chopsticks. The professor stares at the food like if it was something he never ate before. He picked up the spoon and tried eating it. It didn't go through his throat and instead he just threw back out again.
"I'm sorry, you don't like it? I know hospital food taste bad."
"No, I just don't know how swallow this stuff. My mouth just rejects it."
Akihiko wipe his friend's mouth and smiled which made Hiroki's heart flutter.
"It is perhaps due to the fact that you have been tubed feed for practically a year. Do not worry my friend, you will soon learn."
Misaki spoon feed him as Hiroki tries to swallow. Whatever doesn't end up on the napkin which was being held by Misaki right below his chin. This embarrasses the professor that he has to be treated like a baby in front of his friend but it was the only way he could eat without spitting everything out and making a complete mess. After he completely finishes eating, Akihiko kept Hiroki company while Misaki throw the remainder of the food away.
"So what do you remember Hiroki?"
The professor thought for a moment and shrug.
"Basic things for example my name, where I was born, where I went to college, where I now work and wait…"
"Yes?"
Hiroki made a foul distasteful expression and shield his mouth.
"I don't feel well."
"Misaki, get the bucket quickly."
Misaki immediately grabs it and by a split second Hiroki grabbed it and vomited into it. Misaki sooth the professors back as he continues vomiting out what he just ate ten minutes ago. After he is all done, Hiroki grab tissues and wipe his mouth.
"Are you okay Kamijou-san?"
Hiroki barked at Misaki furiously.
"What does it look like? I just threw out my dinner."
"Now Hiroki there's no need to get mad and throw a fit. I call the nurse in to clean up."
Right at that moment a nurse came but for a different reason.
"I'm sorry, visiting hours are over. You must leave."
Akihiko place Hiroki back into his bed and ruffle his chestnut brown hair.
"Night my friend."
Unconsciously Hiroki grabs Akihiko's wrist.
"Wait can't you stay?"
Realize what he just said, the professor let go and his cheeks turn aggressively red.
"It's not like we could pass a brothers. I'm sorry Hiroki, I'll come back tomorrow. I have errands I need to fulfill at home. You understand."
"Yes, sorry it was silly to ask of me."
"Don't be lonely; you have 11 bears to talk to. Well then Good Night."
The author told the nurse if she can clean up the spill. Akihiko then grabs Misaki's hand tangling his fingers with his and kisses his forehead. The professor's eyes widen at what he just witness.
'No… that is not possible. I must be hallucinating.'
"Let's go home Misaki."
Hiroki decides to rest early that night but every time he closes his eyes he see Akihiko holding Misaki's hand and that kiss. Whatever that means he knew it was not some friendship greeting. Just the look in Akihiko's eyes all day he could tell that he was gazing at Misaki. Is it possible that Akihiko gave up on Takehiro and went for his little brother? Hiroki grab the bear Akihiko gift him when he was asleep and began picking on his left eye.
'What do they have that I don't? Why would Akihiko be with him and not me? I understand him the most but at the same time I don't.'
He stops and places the bear back where he took. He just cleared his mind and went to sleep.
