Jyo Kairi

"Do you think this one fits me?" I asked Ali, he shookt his head as I putted the coat down, "I don't know what to wear for our date, Ali. You are not helping..."

"This one." He gave me a tuxedo and smiled, "This one fits your date, isn't it?"

I smiled and nodded at him, I prepared for my date with Mitsuki as Ali just drove me to the place. Thats when my brows furrowed, "Yacht?" I pointed the transport infront me.

"Yeah, I prepared everything. So... go on, she's inside." He smiled and tapped my shoulder. "Good luck, bro, she's been waiting for this moment, see you at sunrise..."

He pushed me to the yacht as I realized what he said SUNRISE?! what do he mean by that, I cannot stay here until tommorow. I have work, Mitsuki needs her meds— oh fuck.

I went on the yacht room as I saw her standing infront the vanity mirror, staring at herself wearing a beige silk fitted dress. I smiled as I hugged her from the back, "You smell good."

She turned and hugged me as tight as she can, "I love you, Kairi..."

"A-ah..." I awkwardly smiled and just stroked her hair, I cannot say those words, I don't know if I am sure about it though. "Mitsuki, lets go and eat?"

She nodded and be the first to go outside as we saw two guys standing near the table, they prepared everything and let us eat for dinner. We we're eating when she interrupted. "Kairi, thank you for this."

"Its nothing, Mitsuki. I know you've been waiting for this, also I did this to make my feelings be deeper again." I smiled as she starts coughing, I was freaking out, I kneel down on the ground with her and cannot do anything but to stare at her coughing purple petals.

"Sorry..." she kept coughing and still managed to say a word even she was struggling to speak, "I am so sorry, please. Just let me love you, you don't need to pay me back. All I want is you to accept me, not to love me back. I know it all, Kairi. I am dying..."

"No!" I yelled and punched the ground, "Just fucking no, I don't want to see you laying down in a coffin, I don't want to see you die. I don't want to see you like this, this fucking kills the hell out of me, It is hard for me too, its hard for me to see you dying. I will save you, can't you just let me?!"

"W-why are you shouting?' she suddenly asked.

I hugged her, I don't know what to say. I just hugged her and closed my eyes, I planted kisses on her forehead. I cannot feel anything but pity, I pity her. I don't know what to do, all I want is to love her, to be with her.

To feel it again.

How can I forget about it?

Is this how love hurts?

Just please bring my feelings back!

I don't want to see her like this anymore, its slowly killing me. I cannot do anything, I cannot love her. I cannot do it that fast and I hate myself for that!

"I'm sorry, Mitsuki." I said while sitting on the edge of the bed where she is laying right now. She is facing the other side but I know she's awake, listening to me. "I'm really sorry, I will do anything to love you..."

"You cannot..." she said and sat on the bed, "Its just too late, its not worth, I cannot live any longer..."

I didn't let her say any word again, I captured her lips as my heart pounds so loud, my tears started to fall as I felt the ache in my heart. I held her cheeks and deepen the kiss while she was holding my chest, she pulled my coat as I stopped the kiss, "Why?" I asked.

"Kairi..." she uttered, "You're crying—"

"Shh..." I hissed and continued kissing her, my tears are still falling the moment I started the thing I was never meant to do this early.

I am slowly falling for her, and I know it, thats why she is having more days to live, but will we make it before its too late?

—

I lay down beside her and stared at the ceiling, "Kairi, what are we gonna do if I got pregnant, I am dying in just two months..."

"No, you are not gonna die. Maybe after this, after this I will finally give you back the love you are giving me..." I said and hugged her, our warm skin touched as I kissed her on her cheek. "You're gonna live, okay?"

She nodded, "I will live for you..."

"You will live for me..." I said and stroked her hair, "You can rest now, Mitsuki. I am here to watch you..."

We closed our eyes, I didn't noticed that we fell asleep, then I heard some knocks on the door, I rushed to wear my undies and shorts then opened the door just a bit, "A-Ali?"

He laughed while looking at me, he was wearing a casual suit that made me slap myself. "Why?" He asked and laughed again.

"Why are you laughing?" I asked him as he took something on his pocket, it was a—. "I didn't get to give you this one, so you did it?"

"That doesn't even matter." I frowned while he kept laughing, "Ali, I intend to make love with her. I want her to, maybe I will be fall in love with her once we had that baby, or even though we cannot have. At least we made love—"

"But you don't love her." He sighed.

"I will... love her." I said and sighed, "Don't you worry, I can do it for less than a month. I will not let her die just like that..."

"I support you there, Kairi. Keep that good work..." He tapped my shoulders and signed me to take a bathe now.
