"Why? Why? WHY DO I HAVE TO MEET THEM AGAIN?" Blaze shout before he realize there was rain started pouring from the sky.

"It's not fair. Why do you have to come back?" Blaze said as he look at the sky.

"You're making it hard for me to forget, Air." He cried.

"You're making it hard for then it already has, Ais." He continues.

"Then stop running away from him, Api." Someone interrupts and shelters him from the rain using the umbrella. It makes Blaze look up.

"Ayah," He call when saw his father in front of him.

"I bring Air here not only for him but also for you. And others also need to know that you're still alive." Amato reply.

"No matter what happens, they are still your family," Amato adds.

"But ayah don't understand!" Blaze almost shout.

"Then make me understand!" Amato raises his voice too.

"Api, Air has been devastated since you have gone missing. He's missing you every day." Amato tell.

"He distanced himself from his other brothers because he misses you so much. Although Air never tells anyone about this, I know he has been secretly feeling guilty that it's his fault that you were gone. That's why even no matter how we told him to move on, he still believes in his instinct that his twin is alive." Amato tells making Blaze's eyes widen.

"Which is he's not completely wrong about it. You're alive." Amato adds again.

"I only accept your request to keep lying to them because I have seen how broken you're when you pleading me to let them move on. After all, it's all my fault that you got kidnapped." Amato continues.

"But Air, he loves you so much. He doesn't know the word give up until he saw your corpse. Even though others convince him that his twin's body might already burn or disappear, he still refuses to believe until he gets the right proof of Api's death." Amato tells again.

"Then why? Why did ayah let Air come here knowing that he doesn't give up?" Blaze starts to raise his voice.

"Because I can't let either of you lose yourself anymore. Air misses you and you, and although you push him and others, I know you miss him and them too." Amato also starts raising his voice.

"I don't miss him. I don't miss them. So stop bringing them to me, especially Air!" Blaze half shouting.

"Api. They miss you. You don't have to push them anymore. Nothing could use them to threaten you anymore. All of them are safe. You're safe." Amato softly said.

"I...am safe?" Blaze asks.

"They will...if they get close to me, someone would hurt them. If they...ever get close to me again...I..." Blaze tries hard to catch his breath.

"Shhs Api. You're safe. No one can hurt you and others anymore." Amato pulls Blaze into his embrace and helps Blaze to breathe.

"I...what if...what if I get close with them again, they will get hurt again? What if..." Blaze starts to panic more.

"They are not supposed to know that I'm alive. They shouldn't have known." Blaze continues before coughing as he tries to catch his breath again.

"Api, shhh. It's alright. Don't think about anything else. Just breathe. Ayah is here." Amato tries to calm Blaze down as he caresses Blaze back softly.
