Yosuke eventually found Yu sitting on a swing in some quiet park. It was like something out of a drama but Yosuke didn't question it and instead headed towards him. "Hey partner" Yosuke called out casually which caused Yu to jump off the swing ready to run again but Yosuke quickly grabbed on to his arm. "Wait aren't you even going to listen to what I have to say" Yosuke asked whilst Yu looked down to the floor. "We can't be together anymore" Yu said sadly. "I need to marry Rina" Yosuke pulled him closer. "I don't want you to. After everything we have been through are you really just going to throw it all away just because your parents don't approve. Do you have any idea what I went through to accept my feelings for you and get used to the idea of my sexuality." Yosuke took a deep breath and Yu sighed. "You don't understand" He said simply. "Then explain it to me so I can understand" Yosuke yelled. Yu sighed and looked like he was about to cry. "I'm sure Dojima already told you that me and my parents do not get along. The truth is they have always had high expectations of me. I wanted to gain there approval as a child but it was never enough for them. They always wanted more. Soon my parents would get angry when I didn't meet their expectations. It was scary when that happened. I decided to just dedicate my life to trying to gain their approval. But when I came to Inaba everything changed. I felt what it was like to have a real family, real friends and someone I loved dearly. It was all so new and strange I didn't know what to do. I still don't know what to do" Yu cried. Yosuke wrapped both arms around Yu but Yu didn't return the gesture. "I was foolish for thinking I could escape them. I'm sorry Yosuke. I have to leave" Yosuke could only watch with tears streaming down his face as Yu walked away once more. Was it really going to end like this?
Yu sighed as he headed to a small hostel to spend the night. It would be unfair to go back to his house with Yosuke there. Yu knew what he had to do so the following morning he called up his parents to arrange the meeting with Rina. He didn't want to go. He wanted to stay with Yosuke. Just seeing his face when he left had left Yu crying al night. But this was all he could do now. The week went by so slow. Spending time at his parents' house was such a chore. His parents always went on about how lovely Rina was and how she was clearly a better choice than Yosuke. Yu didn't think so but daren't not question his parents. Soon enough the day had come and his parents had picked out the finest suit to dress Yu up in. Yu just found it uncomfortable but he had to admit he definitely looked smart. He sighed as he got into his parents car and made his way to Rina's house. How was Yosuke doing? He hadn't tried to contact since they met in the park. Yu couldn't blame him. He had been an ass and Yosuke had been pretty upset. Maybe Yu deserved this. He arrived at the very posh looking house which was well out of the way of Tokyo's busy streets. Was this even Tokyo? A young women dressed in a pretty pink Yukata walked out smiling pleasantly as her parent's accompanied her. There was no doubt she was a beautiful girl however she was not Yosuke. "It's a pleasure to meet you" she said bowing slightly. "I have heard a lot about you from my parents" Yu just smiled bowing back. "Me too it's nice to meet you as well".
"Well then we shall leave you two to talk" Both sets of parents headed off to another room whilst Rina lead them to a private room. The house was very traditional almost like Yukiko's inn. "Please take a seat" Rina said offering Yu a place around the table. Yu sat down traditionally as Rina did the same. "It must have been quite a journey to get here" Rina asked and Yu just nodded. He wanted to be with Yosuke. In their flat. Laughing, messing about, being them. He missed Yosuke. "You don't have to be here if you don't want to be" Rina's voice snapped Yu out of his daydreams. He expected to see Rina looking very angrily but she actually was smiling gently. "I can tell you have something else on your mind maybe another person" She said and Yu blushed. "I'm sorry that was very rude of me to ignore you like that" Yu apologised. Rina just smiled. "So who is the lucky person" She laughed and Yu smiled. "His name's Yosuke. He very kind and honest and thoughtful. I really do love him" Yu admitted fearing that maybe he had scared Rina off. Rina however just smiled. "Then why are you spending time with me. You should be with him". Rina said softly. "If only It was that easy" Yu sighed. "My parents expect me to marry a girl like you" Rina just smiled. "You care about this Yosuke right. Then it shouldn't matter what your parents think. I'm sure Yosuke said the same thing to you right. Yu nodded and got up. "Thank you Rina maybe I just needed to hear it from someone else. I want to be with Yosuke I just hope I can make it up to him" Yu said and Rina smiled. "Go and tell him that" Yu nodded and walked off to find Yosuke and tell him what he needed to tell him.
