"Thank you for coming, Yupe-kun... Emu-kun,". Sakura started the conversation. Right now, they're just chilling out outside after had their meal.

"No problem,". Replied Yupe while the brunette nodded. *silence* "So? What's the important things that you wanna talk about?". Light purple haired male asked the question when three of them lost in their thoughts.

"It's really okay for me to hear this? Won't it better if Sakura-kun and Yupe-kun talk alone? I'm not the third wheel, right?". Emu became nervous. He felt so curious. He knew that the shorter and light purple haired male in front of him were so close. "To involve me in their conversation... It must be super important...".

"Hey, Yupe-kun... Do you still remember the talk we had almost one year ago?". "Hmm... Which one?". Yupe tried to recall his memories. They had been together for a long time that they had created many memories.

"Utaite or Idol... The question that you asked at that time... Do you remember now?". "Ah... yes... so...". "Yes, I'm going to give my answer now,". Sakura turned his back, revealed his face to two men in front of him.

"Umm... Sakura-kun, I didn't meant to interrupt... But, am I allow to hear this?". Since his curiosity got better of him, Emu unintentionally asked the question although he decided to be a silent listener.

"Yes... You're my current partner. You're also a fellow Utaite *mutter* Although I know that you'll able to do it,". "Besides, I hope that you're mentally prepare since you're a lot fragile than me...". "Oh.. okay.. Please continue your talk,". "I'm not understand what's going on... but somehow... I know that it won't be good?". Emu looked down to his lap while playing with his fingers.

Sakura took a deep breath,"You know what? At first, I thought that I can do it... Maintaining my life as both Utaite and Idol. But, eventually, the balance is kinda off. Like, since AlbaNox held a lot of concerts in every month... I have to attend the rehearsals. And because of that, I have less time for Chocorabi to do activities together,".

He paused for a while, "But, I'm glad that Poke-kun's a considerate person. He always tolerate with me, whenever I can't attend Chocorabi's streams although the important ones since it overlapped with AlbaNox's schedules. However, I don't think it's convenience to take the advantages,".

"I know that I can't keep this up forever,". Sakura said in extremely soft voice but still able to be heard by the two men. He received no response from them. Light purple haired male took glances at Emu from time to time. That brunette didn't speak any words.

"To make it even harder, I'm the leader. That means, I bear a huge responsibility although AGata-kun did almost of the works. I'm really thankful to him. To be honest, I don't wanna to choose one of these. But, I know that I can't keep lying to myself.. That's why, I have to make a decision,".

"I see...". Yupe spoke while carefully chose the right words, "Sakura-kun, let me be clear. I actually don't care if you chose AlbaNox or Chocorabi. I also don't care if you chose to be Utaite or Idol. I don't care at all. Because, YupeSara unit will still exist! I just wanna sing together with you forever, Sakura-kun!". Sakura smiled "Thank you very much, Yupe-kun! I know that I can always depend on you!". "Please do so,".

"Emu-kun?". Two pairs of crimson and sky blue eyes darted to certain male, waiting for his answer. "Eh? Ah... Um..Although I like Yupe-kun.. I like Sakura-kun too...Sakura-kun is always kind to me though you're scary sometimes,". Pfft! The light purple haired hold his breath. Somehow, the brunette's sentences sounds funny to him. "Ahem! Forgive me... You can continue,".

"I-I always admired Sakura-kun... Even if the result will disappoint me... I.. I will happily respect your decision!". Emu said with a big smile plastered on his face. "Ahh... Hold your tears, Emu! You don't wanna make Sakura-kun worry, right?!".

"Thank you, Emu-kun!". Sakura put his hand on Emu's head and gently ruffled it. "I had been decided, I'll graduate from AlbaNox!!! I will quit from becoming Idol and focus on Utaite more!". Announced Sakura cheerfully. "Ahh...". "I see... Congratulations, Sakura-kun! I'm so happy for you,". Once again, he forced himself to smile.

"The-Then.. I guess I have to go now. Good night, Yupe-kun, Sakura-kun. Thanks for your hard work,". Emu stuttered a bit as he wished good night for them and quickly leave them. They watched that figure slowly disappeared from their sight.

"It's really okay to let him like that?". Yupe asked for confirmation. "It's okay... If I told him later, the result will be same. Emu-kun, that kid got a pretty low confidence. He'll gradually accept it,". "Is that so? Then, let the time heal him...".

A few days later...

AGata had put his TwitCast link on his Twitter. As expected, his viewers are more than usual. Yes, it's because of the caption of his stream. It's not a clickbait. AlbaNox official account also had released a notice at the same time. It's about their leader...

"Yeah, as the caption written, in this stream... I'll make an important announcement... It's a sad news... But, I as member who acted as sub manager will always support my members' decision. To tell the truth, the red member, Boss... I meant, Sakura-kun will leave AlbaNox...".

On 21st Nov 2020, 「AlbaNox」had made official announcement that their leader, Sakura... will graduate from the group.
