-Sykkuno's pov-

The next week, Corpse's brother, Nino, had moved in next door. Sy was learning sign language from Nino and his best friend Lotus, that way it was easier to communicate with Corpse. "I'm sorry this is happening Sy.. We all knew it was going to happen one day but not this soon.." Nino said quietly and looked over at Lotus, who didn't talk either. It was their own choice though, not an illness. "I hate that there's nothing I can do.. I want to help him.." Sy said quietly. "But,, there is one thing I can do," Sy said and stood up. "I'm gonna go get him his favourite food and some coffee.. Thank you guys for the lesson I'll see you tomorrow," Sy said and went into Corpse's room. "Making a song huh? You're gonna work these until they're perfect before you consider telling the fans aren't you.." Sy asked softly. Corpse nodded, looking up at Sy, who frowned softly. Sy nodded and kissed his head. "I'm gonna go get you some coffee and food okay?" Sy said softly. Corpse nodded again. Sy kissed him softly. Then, he went out to the car and drove to Corpse's favourite fast food place and frowned softly. He took a breath and called his best friend, Rae. "Sykkunooooo!! Hi!!" Rae yelled into the phone when she answered. "Heh, hey Rae," he said softly. "Oh no, what's wrong," Rae asked him. Sykkuno frowned and played with one of the fidget things in his car. "I'm just.. Really missing Corpse's voice right now.. I hate that he can't talk and I know it frustrates him.. It's not fair and we can't do anything about it. We both feel so.. Helpless.." Sy explained, looking out the window. "Oh Sy..." Rae let out a small breath. "Sy I'm sorry.. I understand it's stressful and upsetting for you both and I wish there was more any of us could do. But I promise I am always going to be right there for you whenever you need me." Rae said. Sykkuno sniffled, feeling a tear roll down his face. He quickly wiped it away and nodded. "Thanks, Rae,'' Sykkuno said and then hung up the phone. Sy got Corpse his favourite food and sat back in his car for a bit, needing a minute to just breathe. He missed hearing Corpse randomly hum as he was cleaning or cooking. He missed when Corpse would randomly scream while playing video games. He missed hearing "I love you" and "I'll keep you safe". He missed hearing Corpse record his songs too. And when he would come home and flop on the couch and demand Sykkuno cuddled him and they would watch movies until they fell asleep. But most of all, he missed how much happier Corpse was when he could talk. How much less pain he was in as well. Sy wanted everything to go back to normal. Sy took another breath and drove home. When he got out of the car, he walked inside and kissed Corpse's head. "Hello, beautiful" Sy said in a soft voice.
