Sweet boy ✧

Yuki was far away now lost on the streets of Japan with no way of finding where she was.

She still had her carry on. It was resting on her shoulder while her phone on her pocket. Yuki had so many missed calls from Riki but she didn't answer them.

Riki on the other hand was where he started, still outside the airport. Seeing many planes taking off, landing and people.

He felt bad for whatever he did, Riki just doesn't recall what he did. But all he knows is that he was nervous and stressed out about seeing that man again.

Yuki saw a store and wanted to eat. But she didn't know any of the money currency or how to speak Japanese. But she found an alley.

A small short alley. a nice peaceful alleyway. No graffiti, no people, just her and her thoughts.

She sat down and put her carry on by her side and leaned against the wall while staring at the wall across from her. Then she felt sadness.

All her face started turning red and tears slowly filled her face. Yuki couldn't take it anymore, all the sadness she had in her was out.

Yuki then realized she was crying, and was releasing sounds. She then stopped hoping no one heard her and looked on her right where everyone was passing.

She saw many people, kids, teens her age, adults, and elders. While she saw many people she came across Riki passing by to.

But unlike the other people he stopped at the alleyway and looked into his phone and back up. He looked to his right and let out a relieved smile and sigh.

" Don't do that again, you mega mind forehead looking thing!" Riki said walking toward her. He then took a sit next to her while looking her direction.

" I'm sorry." Yuki said while a tear went down her check. Riki noticed and wiped it with his thumb.
" You have nothing to be sorry about. It's me. I have no idea what I said but whatever I said was because I was stressed out"

" This wasn't supposed to happen or even be in our memories in Japan." Riki said. Yuki looked at him with her puffy checks and Riki immediately hugged her.

" I'm sorry." Riki said while rubbing her back. Deep inside, Yuki knew she should not forgive Riki. but inside her heart she knew she had to, Riki had been there for her for a while now and she's not going to get go a perfect friendship. " It's okay Riki." Yuki said pulling away giving a good smile easy enough for someone who didn't know her to believe, but Riki knew it was a fake ahh smile.

" Look, let's go out to eat for a little while and then go to a hotel to make up for everything." Riki said giving his iconic duck smile anyone can fall for, surprisingly Yuki hadn't fallen for it.

Yet.

" Sure!" Yuki said feeling more better than she felt before. " Let's go then!" Riki said while getting up and offering his hand to help Yuki up. She obviously accepted it and Riki didn't let go of her soft, rich hands. They walked out of the alleyway and Riki was still holding Yuki's hand.

She didn't mind it, in fact, she felt very safe since she didn't know much about what Japan is known for or anything in that matter. " So, you forgot Japanese?" Yuki asks Riki. " Yeah, not a lot tho, just the basic manners here." He said while releasing a nervous chuckle out. Yuki then nodded. " What does that say?" Yuki said pointing at a sign that reads The fresh fruits store.

" Uh, it says something about an old lady." Riki says. " Really?"  Yuki says not believing him. " Yes, it's coming from a Japanese person, born here." Riki said while finally realizing  he had held Yuki's hand the entire way. " Oh, sorry." Riki said nervously. " No, you're fine. Keep it there, I feel more safe that  way." Yuki said feeling herself blush a little. She then put her hand on top of Riki's hand once again, locking them together.
