I pushed Maki away and slapped him. Though my tears were filling up in my eyes looking at his so in love yet surprised face. "D-Don't cross the line!!!" I said wavering my eyes not being able to take the guilt of hitting him.

Right behind him, a few meters away...

I could see my parents who were probably enjoying the fireworks a while ago. I shouldn't have bought him here. I ran away trying my best to not show my face to my dad who was staring two boys kiss probably.

Thank goodness it was a night or else...he would know that it's me. I mean I wish he didn't...

Why does nothing in my life work out properly?

Yuma POV

"Your brother is going to catch that fish for you ok!" I smiled while playing weird games for my twin brother and sister. I concentrated on the golden fish and placed the net slowly while it moved faster with it's toy fins. I suddenly felt a push and fell into water. 

I turned around looking mad to see Jo silently smiling.

My twin siblings started laughing my state with half wet hair and damp face. "JO!" I looked at him annoyed while he smiled. "Want me to catch one for you?" He asked my brother and took the net away from me. He swiftly caught the golden colored fish.

"YAY!" My siblings jumped and took the fish happily.

Jo extended his arm to me and lifted me up. He handed me a napkin and helped me dry myself. "What are you doing here? Where is Harua?" Jo asked and I smiled shyly. "Probably telling his new crush about his confused feelings" I said and Jo looked at me confused. "new?" He asked. "Well, He liked Kokona until last week but suddenly there is this guy who stirred up feelings in him and he apologized to Kokona and is on a mission to confess to him" I told him and Jo nodded.

"Wish he does well" I said and smiled.

"Maki will be happy" Jo chuckled. I turned to him confused. "Eh!?!" 

"EH!?!"

I yelled looking at him confused.

Jo looked at me silently in shock.

"I-I mean..."

"Brother, I want to know what you are talking about!!!" My sister yelled breaking the awkward silence. "Oh! We were deciding what to buy for our little princess" I said pinching her cheeks and smiled. "Me too!" My brother smiled and I nodded ruffling his hair.

"WAH! Harua tried to protect his privacy...Jo you just ruined it" I said and smiled. "W-Wait...you aren't going to hate Maki and Harua are you?" He asked and I sighed. "Come on! Did the first impression I made was that bad...I am also like them" I said and Jo stared at me for a second.

"Don't say anything emotional, It's cringy" I said and started walking again with my siblings hands in mine.

"O-Ok" He smiled and started walking along with me.

"Brother! I want that!" My brother pulled me towards the cotton candy stall. I took three for my siblings and Jo and handed Jo his cotton candy. "Is it Melody?" He asked with a blank stare. "yeah, you are cute like that character" I said and smiled.

Jo tched and took a bite. "You like it?" I asked and he nodded. 

"So cute" I chuckled and smiled.

Harua POV

I returned home with a sad face looking at my parents sitting there awkwardly as if they are waiting for me. I tried my level best to be as discreet as possible and just go back to my room. 

"Harua" I heard a chill sound from my mom. I turned and looked at her sitting straight and firm as if she was going to a war. "Come back here" She said and I sighed walking back to the table where they sat.

"MOM! DAD! I AM SO SORRY I I---"

"What the hell Harua, what do you mean by sorry? Do you even realize how big of a step it is for us to understand this whole thing, do you care to tell us what even happened?" My father asked.

"I-I- I...don't know myself...I...." I sighed.

My father sighed and walked out. I fell on my knees trying to grasp the situation before it's out of my hand, tears flowed down, setting themselves free from all the burden. What have I done? Broke Maki's heart...Broke my parents heart....what am I doing? I am such a jerk...

"You are in love with that boy" My mom looked at me. I looked up at her and nodded. "How much?" She asked. "Don't know Mom...I don't know but he makes me feel right...he makes me feel special...Being someone invisible, He makes me feel proud that I could be liked the way I am" I said looking at her.

"You are such a lucky boy" She said and smiled. "Huh?" I looked at her. "I found that someone who made me feel right at 27, you found it so soon, I am jealous" She said and smiled extending her arms to come sit beside her.

She embraced me into a warm hug. "Aren't you going to scold me?" I asked and she chuckled. "What's wrong with falling in love? Just not doing something stupid is fine" She said and smiled. "Your...dad....isn't made at you for not telling who you are...he is mad at himself for not knowing who you are" She said wiping my tears.

"Just know that...you are our son. We will love you the way you are too...not only that boy" She said making me smile. "I don't think I will get him anymore mom" I said and she looked at me confused.

"While trying know myself, I hurt him a lot of times...and this time could be the last"

I said and sighed.

"Why don't you try to make it up to him? Don't give up and make it your last"

She said and smiled. "But--" I looked at the side my dad went. "I'll talk to him"

I smiled and ran outside wearing my slip-ons. I ran towards Maki's house with the address I got from Jo. I ran to his house as fast as possible. Why did have to rain in the middle of spring!?!

I ran to Maki's House and stared at it as I see a light in the topmost room. I rang the bell. "It's me Harua, Can we talk for once?" I asked and he looked down out of his bedroom window.

He pulled his phone out and called me. 

"What do you want?" He asked and sighed..."Can you come down once? I want to say something" I smiled awkwardly. He walked down to me and looked at me confused from inside the door railings.

"I like you...and...I am sorry" I said and he sighed.

"We are not doing this again Harua" He sighed and turned back to walk back in.

"I...LOVE YOU MAKI"
