Mikey's POV
You texted me, huh? I smiled secretly. Maybe i'm a fool for letting you in my life. I don't want to lose you but here i am being selfish, letting you in this mess. In my mess.
" You really gave your contact to him? I thought you want him away from this mess? "
" I'm not gonna let him discover more, Kakucho. I just want to be in contact with him. It won't hurt our reputation. "
" You're basically dragging him into this mess, Boss. "
" I'll keep him away. "
" Guess i'll keep your secret till you out yourself. "
Life is full of surprises, huh? I can't believe i'm still capable of smiling like an idiot.
I guess i'm really dragging you in my mess but it's okay to be selfish for once, no?
I'll keep you safe no matter what.
Bonten's Hideout
" What's the occasion? You look happy. " Kokonoi asked, looking at me and waiting for answer.
" Nothing. " I replied while typing something on my phone. I'm not a phone person but if it's the only way to communicate with him, i'll do it.
" SINCE WHEN DID YOU GOT A PHONE?! "
Kokonoi shouted, thankfully we're just three here. The others are currently on their own business.
" Boss?! "
" Since today, now shut up. I'm busy. "
Kokonoi just stared at me with disbelief in his eyes.
Kenchin
" Where are you? I'll call. "
" You can't, what if somebody hears you?"
" It's fine, idiot. Inui's not here. "
I was about to type again when my phone rings.
" I'll just take this call. Don't disturb me. " With that i left the living room and goes to my room.
As i entered my room, i pressed the answer button.
" Oi. You take too long to answer. "
I just laughed at you, it's really soothing to hear your voice again.
" The hell are you laughing at? And oh, eat your meals. You look like shit when we met. Take a rest and get a goddamn sleep. Your eyebags look like shit. "
I miss this, i miss how you scold me. I miss how you take care of me. I miss you, Kenchin.
" Oi, are you still there? Mikey? "
" Did you just call to scold me, Kenchin? "
" I won't scold you if you take care of yourself, Mikey. Eat and take a rest. Don't make me come in where the hell you are just to make sure you take care of yourself. "
" You don't even know where i am, Kenchin. "
" Well, you need to tell me. I'll force you if needed. "
You're such a fool, Kenchin. You still care for the person who abandoned you but i'm a fool too for wanting you by my side.
" Fine, fine. "
" I'll meet you so-- "
" BOSS! "
" Oi, Sanzu! Don't go there fucker! Boss, said not to disturb him ! "
Fuck, such a bad timing.
" What boss? Mikey, what's going on there? "
" Ignore it. It's nothing, Kenchin. " I whispered on the call.
" Boss, what are you doing there? Are you locking yourself up, again? "
FUCK.
" Mikey? "
" Mike--"
" I'M HERE, SANZU. LEAVE, I'M BUSY! "
I know, i'm in a fucking danger. I'm sure, Kenchin heard that.
" You got some explaining to do, Mikey. "
GREAT.
" Don't you dare to run away again. "
" Let's talk again, later. "
" Mikey. "
" I'll explain soon, Kenchin. Bye. " I ended the call.
But before anything else, remind me to kill Sanzu.
