Akane bid the two goodbye as she left through the ajar door whilst Inui stood at the entrance with a slight disappointed look on his face.

Kokonoi shut the door close and looked at inui with a slight smile, expecting him to recall him and come running at him just like old times.

But he was sadly proven wrong as inui smiled back and walked back towards the couch, sitting on it.

Kokonoi sighed as he took heavy steps towards inui and stood a meter away.

"K-kokonoi San?" He asked.

"It's umm.. time to take your meds inui.." He mumbled loud enough to be heard by inui.

Inui looked at him dumbfounded before he said "what do you mean by meds kokonoi-san? I believe I have stayed long enough here.. I should leave rather! It's really impolite of me to stay here longer!"

Kokonoi's eyebrows raised with realization as he looked around frantically, searching for an excuse.

"Uhm.. stay for a little longer please! I like your company!" He excused.

Inui stood there thinking for a moment or two, as his eyes lit up and he nodded his head.

"Alright then! Only for two more days!" Inui Exclaimed.

'Only for two more days..' kokonoi sighed


Inui was getting ready, he wore a plain sweatshirt and some jeans underneath. Kokonoi was going to take him out today, that is, for a long drive.

Inui loved long drives, they were calming and peaceful. It gives a sense of relief in each and every muscle of the body, causing them to be sore after the ride.

Inui rushed down the stairs to where kokonoi was waiting for him.

"Inui-san! Don't rush!" Kokonoi spoke worriedly.

"Don't worry Kokonoi-San, I am going to be okay" inui said enthusiastically.

Kokonoi looked away towards the window as his eyes glistened, showing a tear. He wiped it off immediately.

"Kokonoi-san?" Inui asked.

"Inui-san... do you mind giving me a favor?"He spoke

"Huh..? Anything!" Inui replied confused.

"Could you please call me koko?" He mumbled quietly, loud enough to be heard by inui.

"Of course! Is that even a favor to ask?" Inui said as his mouth stretched to a beautiful and shiny smile, kokonoi smiled slightly as he led the way outside.

" soo umm.. kokonoi-sa- .. I mean koko! Where are we going to stop by?" Inui asked excitedly.

During long drives, it was often that they stopped near a place for a while or two and absorbed in the beautiful view. Kokonoi wanted him to see these again, he wanted him to have some nostalgia. Eventhough he knew he was selfish for keeping such desires, he knew that he should quit out of seishu's life, after all he had done to him, he doesn't deserve to have him in his life.

But kokonoi knew better, he knew leaving inui alone would not be good for either of them. So he decided to stay... and start over again.

"Well, we will drive in city areas and near shops. And a little bit around the outskirts if you did like." Kokonoi said as he pulled out his key and opened his car.

"Ooh, that is going to be wonderful! I guess." Inui said as he jumped up and down in excitement. He stopped as soon as kokonoi got into the car, he got in as well in the passenger seat, and strapped on the belt provided.

'These are wonders...' kokonoi mumbled as he thought about inui's sudden change in behavior.

Kokonoi started the car and from the whereabouts of a hill station they had finally reached the city, it was a foggy here and there, but they were able to see overall.

Inui pulled out his camera, which he had bought prior to meeting kokonoi, and started clicking pictures.

"Kokonoi-san, what a wonderful area you have chosen to live in! How did you find this?" He spoke lively as he kept clicking one picture after another.

"Well... a wonder themselves chose it for me." Kokonoi said with a slight smile as he gazed deeply at inui, turning back to the road a few seconds later.

Inui's white hair contrasting the weather and the colors around them, his cheeks having a pink tint and his lips just as red as snow white was said to have. His hair flew across his face, in a beautiful manner, as his lips creased upwards pleasantly, inui himself was a pleasant sight to kokonoi, more than the environment around them.

"Well.. umm.. there is a Cafe stop just when I take a left, so.. you want to eat something?" He asked

"Uuh, sure! Anything of your choice kokonoi-san!" Inui gleamed.

Kokonoi turned about the corner and parked his car infront of the open Cafe. He ordered two coffees and some savory snacks.

He turned his head towards inui who was nervously fiddling with the corner of his jacket.

"Umm.. kokonoi-san? I.. I feel like we have... met before.." inui spoke hesitantly..

Kokonoi looked at him as he looked down at his lap.

'Is he getting his memories...back?" He thought.

"Really? What did we do before?" He asked obliviously.

"Umm.. going on a road trip just like now?" Inui asked as he looked at kokonoi with his warm green eyes, with his white eyelashes being an accessory to his eyes.

Kokonoi looked at him with parted lips, in shock.
"Well.. from our p-previous life? Haha.." He spoke awkwardly as he laughed and broke their eye contact.

"Umm, well.. ok?" Inui said silently as he pulled his phone out.

"Gasp!"

Kokonoi turned his head towards inui quick to find inui staring his phone with wide eyes, he quickly snapped his head towards kokonoi as his eyes were glazed with hatred and hurt.

"HOW COULD YOU??" He screamed with a high pitch as his breathing rate increased.

"Seishu! Sei-seishu, calm down! I can explain! Whatever it is!" Kokonoi spoke frantically as he tried holding inui who kept slapping his hands away.

"You..you-.... are...?...
