"What's the matter...?"

Despite the fact how much you wanted to follow guys, you couldn't leave the bar, so you only got to wait.

— Meanwhile | Ash.

On Ash's way to work his thoughts were a mess. He learned about such a good thing this morning, so why would he be worried? It feels like freedom, however, it's hard to realize it, to accept it, no matter how much he wanted to. His life was in that shit for as long as he could even remember himself, after all.

He stepped by his favorite coffee shop to get two cups of his favorite tea, one for him and one for you.

In case she doesn't like it at all, I'll drink it. - he thought.

Grabbing his order, he thanked the barista and left the little café faster than he thought he would, however, his phone, vibrating in his pocket, did not think so.

"Morning, Onii-chan." - Ash chanted, trying to act usual.

"Good morning, Aslan. We need to talk." - It was apparently the first time when Eiji was being that serious.

"I told you to stop calling me that." - Ash felt bad hearing people using his real name but he couldn't be mad at Eiji. "Where?"

"I am at the bar, so let's go talk in—"

"Wait, I'm gonna pick you up in two minutes." The line went dead as Ash closed the door of his car and went towards the bar as fast as he could.

"Two minutes," - Eiji smiled.

"As promised." - Ash finished for him, tapping the free seat next to him. "What'd you want to talk about?"

Eiji sat in the car, it really was the best place to talk, it has some sort of privacy.

"I was talking to (Y/N) few minutes ago."

Ash raised an eyebrow. "So?"

"She told us what she had heard in the news."

"So?"

Eiji's eyes started watering.

"Aslan..." - his voice dropped. "Is that true?"

—

There was no room for boredom for you, the amount of guests today was immaculate for some reason. Once you finally got your free five minutes, you immediately called someone you haven't had any contact with for awhile – Yut Lung.

Another long beeping sound escaped the cellphone when your best friend has finally picked up.

"Look at who's calling." - You missed this bitchy voice of his.

"What's up, Moon-Pie." - The little nickname you gave for him was added to the end of your sentence in purpose of softening him. "Are you busy?"

"I am always busy." - You could tell he did a hair flip. "Do you even know how hard it is to look that stunning all the time?"

"Yeah," - you chuckled, "And you're doing just great."

"I know, honey. Why you asking though?"
