Unfortunate Minds || Renga

fourteen:

langa had woken up and it was announced that everyone was going to have a random group meeting.

so langa got out of bed and walked to the room they usually had group in. his group time was scheduled for before breakfast so he got dressed quickly. after everything that had happened, langa was emotionless.

his eyes were darker and his eye bags were enhanced by such darkness. since his eyes were so dull and deprived of color, it made his face look even paler.

langa decided to take a seat at whichever chair was closest to him because he really didn't have the energy to even be here and talk.

as more people started to come in, miya and kiragi took their seats next to langa and they noticed langas depressed mood. they both gave each other a look but langa kept looking at the floor.

then reki walked in and langa looked up at him. he knew he would be let down but, he had hoped reki would sit down near him. let him know that whatever langa was feeling was just a hoax.

he hoped that reki would look at him and give him the look that would give him the conclusion that everything is okay between them.

instead, what really happened was reki didn't even look in langas direction and sat nowhere near langa.

langa got the hint and sighed as he closed his eyes and looked back down. he had no more reasons to leave. he was where he belonged and he was sure of it.

langa could feel the stares between kiragi and miya but he shrugged it off. he has never been loved in his life and when the one person he thought loved him all of a sudden stopped, it really hurt him.

koji then soon came in shortly and sat down and began the meeting. immediately he began smirking in langas direction noticing how down he seemed.

"i decided to have this surprise group session because we have a new comer." koji said and langa didn't even notice but ruben was sitting next to koji. the same way langa used to.

"hello. my name is ruben." ruben said and langa eyed him. since kiragi and miya know about ruben, they both looked at each other and then at langa but langa was too busy eyeing him down.

"today is my fifth day here and maybe two months in this whole department and it's awesome. i fell incredibly safe here thanks to koji." ruben said and gave koji a smile to which koji placed a hand on rubens thigh.

langas eyebrow twitched up and he tilted his head ever so slightly. langa didn't notice but reki finally looked at langa. reki looked at him because koji always used to do that to langa during group meetings whenever they sat next to each other.

"oh shoot, i'm 18. sorry forgot to say that." ruben said and koji pat his thigh that his hand was still resting on.

"you did good, ruben. no worries." koji said and ruben nodded his head as he noticeably blushed. langa then looked from ruben to koji and koji looked at langa.

langa kept his stare and koji smiled so innocently and langas never wanted to slap someone more than he did right now.

"with that being said, i have bad news." koji said and langa and everyone else listened. "as you know, langa haseagawa as been with us for some time."

"unfortunately there is no more space for anyone in here so we have to start doing transfers to other department buildings and langa will be the first to go." koji said and everyone began to look at langa and some whispered to themselves.

langa just sat there with his arms crossed as his eyes were glossy, not removing his eyes from koji once.

"i have a question for ruben." langa blurted out and koji looked at langa and then to ruben.
