suyooyuuchie14(Chapter 1)
The radiance of that colour wraps everything
The scorching, passionate red
The radiance of that colour soothes everything down
The calm and aspiring blue
"Ah, Hisashiburi sensei." Hikaru greeted as he entered the doctor's office.
"Yaotome-kun,we need to talk, please take a seat" The doctor turned to serious mode immediately trying to hide the little quiver in his voice.
"Ne,sensei, you've found something wrong with the check-up? eh don't look so grim, I'm not a pussy you know!" Hikaru grinned trying to ease the tense atmosphere.
"Ah, of course I know you're not weak, so I guess I won't hide under the bush now eh? you're a straight forward man after all. Hikaru-kun, You have Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease." The doctor said grimly looking away from his cheerful patient. Hikaru titled his head in one side cutely, pouting a bit not understanding a thing from the said disease. The doctor sighed and sat down.
"Hikaru-kun, you said earlier that you're having a hard time in sleeping, tend to forget some important dates, feels weird sensations, couldn't control your own body to the extent that you feel like you're being possessed, and there are moment that you just feel like you're not yourself. Hikaru these are the basic symptoms of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease." The doctor finished and removed his specs and rubbed his temples.
"Then, Is it that bad sensei? What medications should I take then?" Hikaru, as optimistic as always tried to comfort the doctor even in that grave situation.
"Hikaru-kun CJD is a degenerative brain disease, I think in your case it is variant CJD, since classic CJD occured mostly on older people, there's no record on your family history that leads to this disease. Hikaru-kun, your condition will worsen this day onwards, You wouldn't remember not just dates but other memories as well, you'll feel different kinds of pain, you'll feel weak as your brain cells continued to degenerate, you'll see things that aren't really there, you'll lose control on you locomotive skills. Hikaru-kun, this disease is incurable, gomenasai Hikaru-kun, I'd have to say that you only have 6 months to a year to live." The doctor has been very close to Yaotome family ever since Hikaru's a toddler, the doctor after all is one of Hikaru's mother's friend. The doctor had been there when Hikaru caught a flu, chicken pox, measles and everything so Hikaru couldn't blame him for that little outburst that feels out of place.
"Ah, souka..so I guess I'd just have to make the most out of it ne?" Hikaru smiled, he went out of the room and ran as fast as he could until he reached the solace of his own house. He entered the house and collapsed right after he locked the door. sobs could be heard all over the house as he let his cheery mask slip off. Why him? He knew he'd been naughty at times, he'd done a few wrong things there and then but why does Kami-sama punished him like that?
"Haha! It's not the time to self-pity Hikaru! You only have 6 months left, you better use it wisely!" Hikaru whispered to himself and he rushed to his room and grabbed a small bag and filled it with clothes that will last for a few days. He rushed out and locked his house and called his mom.
"Hi mom, I'm coming home." He will tell his parents about it. They've been in too much hardship for him to hide such important thing from them. They're strong enough, he knew. Hikaru opened his phone when he felt it vibrate on his pocket, the moment he flipped it and saw his wallpaper, his eyes hardened and his whole body trembled.
There's no way that I could tell him.
Daiki looked at the figure who has been looking at the window, they've found him crumpled on the floor, sobbing and muttering his lover's name like a broken mantra. Daiki didn't know what to do, he feels so useless because his friends are drifting apart, Hikaru would be gone for good, it was a hard thing to accept but Hikaru looked at it very optimistic that it doesn't feel horrible at all. What makes it hard for everyone is the lovers' Romeo and Juliet situation, Sure it would hurt when Hikaru's gone but it would be the death of Yabu if Hikaru would die in his arms, maybe that's the reason why Hikaru broke up with Yabu, hoping that Yabu would move on and forget about him, so that the news of his death wouldn't be that crashing for Yabu.
"Ne Daiki.." Yabu broke the silence with his crisped voice as he finally shift of his eyes to look at his friend.
"..Chinen told me before you came that Inoo and Hi- -Hikaru went to America, eh?" Yabu looked straight at Daiki's eyes with such cold empty eyes that sent off Daiki searching for a good answer.
"Ah- eh...Hai." Daiki admitted.
"And you're okay with that?!" Yabu stood up and glared at Daiki.
"Yabu, don't assume things!" Daiki said trying to comfort his friend, no matter how offending Yabu's words might be, he needs to bear with it for the sake of fulfilling Inoo and Hikaru's wishes, this is the only thing he could do for Hikaru, even if it results to Yabu believing that Hikaru and Inoo are together now.
"Eh, so Daiki we're in the same boat, why don't you come with me then?" Yabu whispered and grinned, no matter how cheerful that face maybe, his eyes are still bloodshot, cold and empty.
"No, Yabu calm down!" Yabu then looked at him in a mocking way that was never present in the ever so kind Yabu he knew just a few days ago.
"Ah, you're going to wait for Inoo when you know that he's left you for someone better than you? Why don't we just forget about them?" Yabu smiled as he grabbed his coat and car key. Daiki would have asked Yabu to stay but maybe, this is what Hikaru wants, for Yabu to forget about him no matter how it destroyed his image on the eyes of the person he loves the most.
"Just go alone Yabu."
