..."Love is just an expression, comfort is proof." ...
The five people*ABG* gathered with mixed feelings between awkward and amused. They drank their coffee without the slightest talk, but the two men were acute bucins gave them goosebumps.
"Dear~ I want to eat this can?"
"No. It'll hurt."
"Darling if this is?"
"No. Too many."
"What should I eat?"
"You have to eat what you can spend. I don't want to eat much because of you. Not anymore."
"Colah~"
"No."
Seeing their interaction made Misako speechless, I guess I was wrong to worry about their relationship. At a glance Misako glanced at Ryan who looked surprised like the first time she saw him, Misako narrowed her eyes.
"Have we just met this time? I mean, have you never met without me?" Misako asked tilted her head in confusion.
"No!" Reply simultaneously his friends looked at Misako.
Misako just nodded while enjoying her drink. "I thought you all met a lot, I was wrong."
Glen let out a long sigh, he looked gently at Misako. "We're always waiting for you, even talking about you on the grub as soon as you get out. I thought you had completely disappeared from the world, it's a good thing we all met."
"Honey~ your words are sweet once~"
"Stop Zion!"
Misako smiled widely, she stirred up the drink that was almost finished. Every now and then he bit down his lips, he held back his tears. "I'm sorry for everything..."
"That's it. We've all just met after a long time, talking about sad things isn't interesting. Because we understand you." Ryan with a smile showed off his teeth.
Sehun who had just been silent was knocking on the table. "We don't want anyone to cry because things are too sad, but... It's okay if it's just a little."
Ryan replied with a tease, he did not expect his friend would be more quiet. "Hahaha what does that mean?"
Misako smiled broadly. "Thank you guys, I'm glad we met today. You guys are great at being my friends, when I have so many flaws."
Glen held onto Misako's shoulder. "Don't run away again..."
Ryan approached his seat near Misako. "Because we're going after you..."
Sehun got up from his seat, his hand knocked on Misako's head. "Until you get back in front of us..."
Misako is silent at the actions of her friends, she laughs. "Are you guys practicing hahahaha! The compact.."
Glen covered his embarrassed face as well as Ryan, while Sehun was silent with a reddened face. They went back to their place, drinking their own coffee.
"We're actually practicing..." Whisper Ryan was embarrassed.
Glen's face grew red. "We just want to look cool you know..."
"Really! N-no! It just... To cool..." Sehun looked nervous, his voice unbearable. He closed his eyes with his right hand.
Sion enjoyed the live broadcast in front of him. "You must be close." Sion muttered with the sharp gazes of the four of them. "W-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w- am I wrong? Eeh!?"
Misako shook her head followed by Ryan and Sehun. "You're not wrong, but we're not that close..." Misako said with a small nod from Zion.
"Aren't you here long by the way?"
"There's work?"
"Yes, all the lectures. Where are you going, Ryan?"
"I'm also in Korea, but I have a contract. You're Sehun?"
"I have business in Korea."
Misako gave a small laugh that avenged a confused look from all of them. "So we're all going to Korea? Hihihi, funny destiny."
Glen surprised. "You want to go to Korea too? When's? Want to be with me?"
Misako quickly shook her head. "No, I graduated first. Maybe next year."
"Why are you going there?" Ryan was confused.
"Sister's work is there, I'm lazy away from him..."
"Are you meeting him for your purposes at the university of South Korea?" Ask Sehun.
"I'm going to take the major I decided on last year."
Hearing the steady answer from Misako makes her friends feel relieved, from the first Misako does have a strong purpose. But he is too attached to his family, his friends fear Misako crush him mentally and muddy his future.
'He's still as strong as he was..' Inner Glen, he smiled sweetly.
Ryan propped his chin up looking at his coffee glass. 'He's still like he used to be, even more. Steven, he's getting stronger.'
Sehun drank his coffee until the last point. 'He's a strong kid, Steven I hope you see him getting better, too.'
They spent a lot of time chatting in their lives over the past two years. Sometimes Zion offset the topic but also created an amused atmosphere for her bucolic attitude, where rumors of Zion proved wrong because she was weak against Glen. Misako smiled, she laughed a lot today. On the other hand he is proud to show himself now, he wants to prove that even if Alan is not there, he will still be himself.
"Well, I'm happy to talk to you guys! We have to play a lot when we're in Korea!" Glen said, Ryan and Sehun just nodded. They bid farewell to their first meeting after a long time.
Misako comes home with Sehun's ride because Ryan has to work, as well as Sion and Glen who have to prepare.
"Thank you so much Sehun..."
Sehun nodded while showing off his smile, Misako was surprised to see him. "Don't make yourself slumped, all humans still have hope to meet in the afterlife. Spirit."
Misako was silent, Sehun left Misako, occasionally waving his hand. Misako wakes up and replies.
Until now he was alone, stepping into his place. He was a little confused because of the quiet atmosphere, there was no usual welcome he heard. Where is he? , his mind restless. Misako runs towards the door of Ryu's locked house, and sees the light die.
"Ryu! You where?"
Misako with a disordered look at the lifeless cold door, she knocked without reply. When he pressed the bell no one answered him.
"Why are you acting like this? You want to disappear like that?"
His back was leaning against a cold wall, it was cold tonight and he was wearing thin clothes. His nose turned red, long breaths of air coming out of his mouth. Why are you guys so happy? Looks like my sins are too much, you guys ran away because I'm troublesome huh? Or the... Have you found your place... Ryu... Ye... You kale boy...
He checks his phone, there is a voice message from Ryu. Misako downloaded that long message.
"Missau... It's me Ryu, maybe when you come home this will be my last welcome. I'm going abroad, it's fast because I just published myself in school. Actually this is just my escape from the family that continues to force me to get engaged, I have solidified my determination to stay longer. But... The woman I love I think is more comfortable without me, but I'll keep waiting... Before that I have to prepare a lot for him, I am ready after I succeed. I'm going back... Misakou... Welcome..."
Misako directly pressed the reply button. "I won't look for you little chicken hehe. Good luck."
The message was sent without reply and will never be reciprocated, Misako smiled bitterly, her eyes staring at the dark sky.
"I won't wait for you, but I'll find you. I have something to tell you." Misako Tegas.
