chapter 15!!

Together.

First Person (YOU) Point Of View (POV)

(7k views??? i was at 2k like yesterday thank u so much i love you all)

I woke up in the guest room as usual because I obviously wont sleep next to rin. yet.

I checked my phone, went to the bathroom and did whatever I do there and went outside to check in on suna in his room because yesterday he was not well.

He misses mei and all and he's constantly asking if mei called because he's afraid something might happen again, past trauma... Its really common.

I knocked on rintarou's door and i didnt hear anything at all, not even shuffling in bed or whatever so I opened the door slowly.

"rintarou? Wake up you have practice today.." I told him in a soft tone.

oh. he isn't in his room.

"rintarou? Where are you?". I walked around the house for a little bit, not finding him anywhere.

I reached mei's room, which had its door closed. The door wasn't closed before we went to sleep...?

I knocked on the door a bit, hearing a little bit of shuffling in there.

Is he in there?

I opened the door and walked into the room, finding a sleeping rintarou on mei's very small bed compared to rintarou's height, but I think he managed.

"rin" I said again for the 10th time today.

"hmm?" He mumbled, finally.

"you have practice in an hour" I told him as I sat on the edge of the bed and played with his hair.

He got up, rubbing his eyes and looking at me afterwards, which turned into a heated staring contest until rintarou spoke up.

"was that you forcing me to get up or what?". holy shit. His raspy morning voice never fails to get me.

"if practice isn't important i guess you'll cancel?" I told the half asleep man infront of me.

"oh so you were forcing me?" he asked.

"what- no no of course not! im just reminding you". I hope he didn't get the wrong idea, that would be embarrassing.

"im joking" he said, slightly smiling.

He got up and went to the bathroom and did whatever he does in the morning, meanwhile I went downstairs and made breakfast for rintarou so he can get energy before going to practice.

We later sat on the dining table and ate the breakfast I made.

"any updates from your sister about mei?" he asked.

"i was on a call with her last night. She said that we have to wait for her to complain about something that can be helpful against the government's choice. And by the way she said she can ask if we can take mei in for Christmas eve until new years, so if the government said yes we can keep her for 9 or 10 days" I explained.

"yeah thats good enough..." he answered.

"dont worry, we're in this together all right?" He seemed worried, and I don't blame him at all. The situation is about his daughter living with her psychotic mom instead of him.

He nodded, smiling at me.

I like moments like this. By that I mean making rintarou smile, he isn't the type of people who smile all the time and its hard to make him smile, so it makes me happy when he smiles considering that he's a person who always has a resting face on.

I finished cleaning the dishes, rintarou got dressed for work while I got dressed to go back home, finding it disrespectful to stay at his home without his presence there.

He didn't claim it as disrespectful, as he tired multiple times to convince me to stay but he ended up failing in doing so, and allowed me to leave.

While we were opening the door to leave to our own destinations, rintarou's phone rang.

He took it out to check who it is, only to find shock on his face, it was mei.

He answered it and put the phone on speaker, "whats wrong? Are you okay mei?" he said.

Silence. Nobody replied.

"mei? If you're there give us at least a small noise we can go there right now" i told her.

still, nothing.

"mei? Mei answer me please" rintarou said, this time worry and fear were very clear in his face.

"dad.. mom.. please help me" she said, trying to lower the sound of her sobbing.
