March 16 5:23 PM Dadaepo Beach, Busan, South Korea

"Want some?" Komori offered while holding a cup with stir-fried rice cake in it. (Tteokbokki 떡볶이)

"There's no way I'll eat that. No one knows how the hell they prepared it." Sakusa shot a disgusted look at Komori before gazing back at the sea.

"That's fucking... rude, you know? People here... follow the food... safety guidelines so... it's fine eating... street foods." He spoke with his mouth full and almost choke on his last words.

When Sakusa didn't respond to him anymore, he asked, "When are you going back to Japan?"

He didn't looked at him nor answered right away. He was staring blankly at the waves, as if deep in his thoughts. "Not yet." He answered dryly. 

His gaze is still focused on the sea that looked dozy as it rested on the afternoon glow. He often sees the sunset golden beach here in Dadaepo when he wants to have some time alone for his self but everything felt different after that day. 

He regretted everything he has said to Atsumu and wanted to swallow back the words that he uttered to his lover about wanting to finish everything off but what surprised him is that, he agreed to end their relationship.

"He didn't even resisted." Sakusa blurted, "He just agreed with it and before I knew it, everything was all done. It's been a month but he never came back to me. I want to call him but I was too afraid he might reject me again."

"Hmmm..." Komori sat beside him on the beach mat and was about to tap his back but Sakusa quickly dodge his whole body away from him.

"I don't need your comfort, you shit." 

"Then don't fucking tell your stupid tragic love story to me, you fucking germaphobe." Komori thought as he smiled sarcastically at Sakusa. "You really love him, do you?"

He nodded, his gaze strolling over the sea absently. "I really do."

"Then what do you like about him?"

Sakusa answered nothing, but Komori looked at him significantly, awaiting for his reply. "What do you like about him?" He asked for the second time.

Sakusa curled his knees and buried his face before answering, "I don't have... a reason. Do I really need that when falling in love?"

Komori nodded his head even if Sakusa didn't saw it and waited for him to continue.

"I met him at the gun shop where I normally do my training and that was the first time I saw him there. I was with two alleged undercover agents that Oiwake-san wants me to kill at that time. When I had the opportunity to kill one of them at the shop, I did it, but Atsumu didn't flinched nor got scared. You do know a lot of people are scared whenever they see me, right? But Atsumu was different."
