February 2015

My two eyes suddenly opened again.  I slowly got up from my bed and looked at the clock.  It's five in the evening already?

I sighed and immediately took a shower to make my body fresher.  I put on my army colored clothes and immediately left my room.  I think I took too long for a break, after I let my best friend make some chocolates in the kitchen.

I take a glass of water to quench my thirst, then just daydream quietly near the kitchen counter.

My head feels dizzy, my mind still blurry, all I remember is that I helped y/n get something in her kitchen before I go to sleep.

This silence feels normal to me.  I don't know what happened out there anymore. Or rather, I don't want to know.

People could be looking for me, or sneered at me for disappearing from campus. Whatever it is, it doesn't matter to me at all, I guess.

After I met Kelly again that time, my world fell a lot deeper.  All I can feel inside myself is stress.  Depression. Well, in fact, what else do I have besides them?  They both are my playmates now, who knows how long.

My gaze stopped at something on the dining room table.  Footsteps brought me closer to it, with a sense of emptiness which still lingering inside.

My eyes widen a bit, seeing a plate of brownie sponge cake has been served there. I turned left and right, looking for Y/N's presence.

Come to think of it, she's nowhere to be seen this evening.  Didn't she make these chocolates for herself to eat? Where is she?

While I'm thinking, my eyes caught a slip of paper folded in half beside the brownie plate.  My hand slowly took and unfolded it.  My eyes caught a few sentences that instantly froze me in place.

Happy Valentine's Day, Eddy.
I wanted to call you a while ago, but you looked soundly slept on your bed.

You really love brownies, right?
Eating favorite foods always made me better. Maybe you too.

Oh and uh... I'll be gone for a moment.

Y/N

I looked back at the cake. I sighed, then pulled out the chair right in front of me.  My hand took and immediately spoiled my mouth with a bite of the brownie.

This is the second time Y/N has lied to me. Maybe she doesn't even believe me either now. Who wants to be around someone like me anyway. Right?

Author POV

🎵 Sarasate - Introduction and Tarantella 🎵

A smile has formed as Eddy chow down the brownies in silence. After all those years of friendship, someone just felt satisfied only by seeing him eating well from the loft. Her hand grabs the staircase quietly as she stare at her dearest friend eats alone downstairs.

This is enough for me. The only way to give more attention to him.

She cherished their friendship since the first time she met him, and she knew that they promised each other to be always together until they both grown up, but...

After all they been through, she reckon Eddy could have forgotten about that promise by now since he have someone unreplaceable, other than her.

It's no use to get him out of there when he still wants to cherish his feelings. Making him love her back is something she don't want to do.

They both suffer. Together, yet alone.

No one actually thought that their beautiful friendship is going to this depressing. But, will they ever meet again along the way?

I always trust you, Eddy. I'm certain you can walk this through. You're a great man! You're... the best man I've ever known...
