Hey! There will probably be not as much angst for a while. This book is turning out to be WAY longer than I thought it would be. :) anygays enjoy!!!

Leon's pov:
"Hey Leon. I heard that you're going to be discharged this Friday." The nurse lady says. I process what she says.
"REALLY!?!?" I yell at her. I'm so excited! I can't wait to go do normal things and see all of my friends at school and tell them about my awesome new friend...
"But... I don't want to leave Mr. Obanai." I say. He looked so sad when he first got here. He reminds me of my other friend that I met in here.
She was a bit older than Mr. Obanai and she left a couple of weeks ago. Me and her wrote to each other but I stopped getting notes from her... then one day I got a note from her parents. She had committed suicide. I'm worried about Mr. Obanai. I want to stay with him and be released at the same time as him. I live across the country so I might never see him again.
Thinking about this makes me sad. I feel tears run down my cheek.
"You can still write letters to each other!" She tries to comfort me. "And you can visit him whenever you want!" She smiles. I want to tell her that my parents won't let me but I don't want to talk to her any longer so I just nod at her.
"Do you want me to stay or do you want to be alone?" She asks me.
"I want to play with Mr. Obanai." I tell her. She nods and walks out of my room. I wipe my eyes and walk out of my room.

Obanai's pov:
I was sitting at the table waiting for Leon to finish his daily check in. I feel a presence behind me and turn around.
"MR. OBANAI I HAVE TO LEAVE AND I DONT WANT TO LEAVE BECAUSE I WANT TO STAY WITH YOU AND-"
"Whoa. Calm down." He hugs me tightly which of course was enough for SuSaN to glare at us. I just glared back at her.
"I don't want to leave you!" He cried into my shoulder. I rub circles in his back.
"It's ok. We can write to each other. And besides, you don't want to stay in here with SuSaN do you? Maybe one day we can play outside of here." I tell him. He seems to like that idea as he calms down a bit.
"But... I live so far away from here!" He cries again.
"It's ok! I travel all across Japan for my job. I can come to you." I tell him. He beams.
"Your gonna come visit me as soon as you get out?" He asks. I nod. "And you're going to write to me at least twice a week?" I nod again.
"YAYYYY!!!" He yells and energetically runs around.
"You wanna make some macaroni art?" I ask him. He loves making macaroni art. (And not just penis')
He grabs a paper intensely and squirts glue all over the paper. Then he starts sticking macaroni all over the paper. I decide to watch him.
"So, when are you leaving?" I ask him. He thinks for a second before replying.
"In 2 days." He says. He then sneakily puts a macaroni penis in the corner of his paper. It's like his signature at this point. Kids have the weirdest humour.
Time skip brought to you by macaroni penis.

Leon's pov:
Today is the day that I get to leave. I'm still a little sad about it but I know that Mr. Obanai will visit me when he gets out.
"It won't be like last time." I tell myself. My heart wont stop pounding though. I get a bad feeling. What if he never does get out of here? What if he doesn't visit?
Don't be silly. I'm sure he'll get out really soon. He doesn't seem like he'll be in here super long and he told me he has an awesome job that doesn't have too many workers so they NEED him to get out soon.
He better tell me if he gets with Ms. Mitsuri. He talks about her a lot and he TOTALLY likes her. I can tell because I'm a love expert.
I grab my bags and bring them out to the front desk. I'll leave them here until my parents get here in about half an hour.
Mr. Obanai walks up to me.
"Are you excited?" He asks me. I nod. That must be why my legs are shaking so much right? Except, it doesn't feel how it usually does when I'm excited.
"I want you to have something." I tell him. I can already feel tears coming up. I hold them back as I give him the macaroni penis that I showed him when we first met.
"Thank you!" He says. And he smiles. I haven't seen him smile the whole time he was here. He's so pretty. How come Ms. Mitsuri hasn't asked him out yet?
"You're going to remember to send me letters right?" I ask him. I can feel the tears running down my cheek.
"Of course!" He assured me. "Trust me." He says. He looks so sincere. I nod. This won't be the last time.
"I'm excited for you to get out of here so that we can do normal people things!" I say. I want to do so many things with him. We could go to that cafe by my house and he can show me his snake.
"I can't wait either." He says. He looks excited. Susan looks annoyed at us but that's nothing new.
"I feel bad that you have to still deal with SuSaN." I say looking at her with a disgusted face. She rolls her eyes and looks back at her computer.
Mr. Obanai laughed. "Yeah. It's ok though. I'll manage." We talked about all of the cool things that we did together and then my parents came.
I walk up to the front desk clutching onto Mr. Obanais hand tightly.
"You ready to go home?" My mom asks as my dad grabs my stuff to bring to the car. I look at Mr. Obanai.
"Yeah." I sadly say. I then hug Mr. Obanai again. "Goodbye!" I say. "I'll write to you as soon as I get home!"
"Bye." He says. I then walk out of the building with my mom.

Hahahahaha. This chapter is longer than most chapters. :) yay. I will update soon. No that's not a promise. Anygays have a great day/night!
