Love Him... More

Cemetery

After the burial, Shine can see Yuzuru is hesitant to approach Allen but he still did.

"Gomen'nasai" Allen said 'I am sorry' in nihongo as he speak with sympathy to Yuzuru.

Yuzuru face Allen with a expressionless looked on his face. He then looked down for a very fast second, wipe something in his eyes and lift his face again.

"Thanks...But I know that there is reason for all of these" Yuzuru sadly said. And he looked Allen directly in the eyes, as if he knows Shine is looking and listening to him. "Plus, I am going to see Shine again, eventually" Yuzuru finishes with pain in his voice. But Shine can see no pain in his eyes.

"Does he know something?"Shine nervously asked in her mind. "I doubt that!" Shine answer herself in a very low voice as she looked at Yuzuru thru the camera.

"I mean, death is the only certain thing here on earth and when my time is also up, I am going to happily see her again" Yuzuru explain himself further and his eyes are full of sorrow now.

Shine exhale, "My poor Yuzuru" she said to herself. Yuna patted her back.

"Good to know that you are being positive about this. I wish, I am tough as you. I am sure that Shine, wherever she is now, she will be proud and happy to see you with much optimism" Allen said adjusting his eyeglass and the camera move a little.

Yuzuru briefly smile to Allen's words. Nam, Monika and Javier then approach them. Javier patted Yuzuru in the back as he settled himself besides him. Yuzuru look at Javi and give a sad smile. Nam and Monika give a cheer-up smile to Yuzuru.

"I don't believe we have been formally introduce. I am Nam, these are Monika and Javier. We used to work with Shine in the club" Nam said extending his hand to shake Allen's hand.

"He is the Le Cuisinier- boy I am telling you about" Nam loudly whisper to Monika. Monika immediately extend her arm to shake Allen's hand too.

"So you are Allen? I am Monika, nice to finally meet you. It's not the ideal place to meet people, though" Monika said with a bright smile.

"Nice to meet you too, Monika. I have heard a lot about you from Shine before" Allen said. Seeing at Monika, Shine can see that Allen's charm must be working in her.

"who wouldn't?" Shine said as she rolled her eyes to Monika in her mind.

"I am Javier" Javier shortly said and shake Allen's hand too.

"Nice to meet you Javier. I am Allen. You are the Spanish figure skater right?" Allen inquire the fact that he already know.

"Yes" Javier confirm.

"Shine had mention you to me. She said that next to Yuzuru —well, you know how bias she was when it comes to him. But she told me that you are the guy to watch out for and I think, she speaks of the truth" Allen said in Spanish.

"Really? Shine said that? I am happy to hear that Shine is also watching me, I didn't know that. Thanks!" Javier said and smile, flattered in Allen's words.

"You know Spanish too?" Yuzuru asked in nihongo to Allen.

"Yes! my family force me to learn the language because of my ancestors" Allen answer in Yuzuru's tongue.

For Shine, hearing Allen lie in front of them is kind of amusing to see.

"He really sounded natural" Shine said on herself. "I wonder how many things that he tells you are actually true?" Shine's inner self laugh at Shine.

"Wow! You can speak three different languages?" Nam said with amazement in his voice.

"Actually five, I can also speak Russian and French quite fluently" Allen corrected Nam.

"Wow! men you are a Big Deal" Nam said as he stand in front of Allen astounded by the information. He looked at Yuzuru in disbelieve that Shine chooses him.

Then Coach Brian and Yumi approach them.

"Allen right? We've met in the party last time" Brian said as he extend his hand to him. "This is Yumi, Yuzuru's mom" Brian then introduce Yumi.

"Hi! Nice to meet you, I am Allen, Shine's closest friend" Allen said in nihongo. "No offense Monika, but I told her that I am Shine's closest friend " Allen directly said to Monika. Shine is guessing that Allen's smiling to Monika, seeing how she's shyly smiling in front of the camera.

"You can speak Japanese?" Brian asked. Shine can see that he is surprise but glad about that fact.

"Ah yes" Allen answered.

"And he can also speak Spanish, Russian and French, Coach. Seriously, this guy here can speak like anything" Nam excitedly relay to Coach Brian. Since, Shine can't see Allen's reaction she tried to picture him as being flattered— or at least pretend to be.

"Really? If you don't mind and if you have time, come visit the club. We can really use your help... interpreting" Coach Brian excitedly said to Allen.

"I don't think he will becoming anytime soon, Coach. He is a medical student so he is always busy" Yuzuru answer for Allen instead, in a way that Brian will understand his English.

"On the contrary Yuzuru, I will be coming more frequently now. Because with Shine..." Allen pause and exhale " gone...I will be looking for Min as frequently as I can" Allen answer Yuzuru but he wants Coach Brian to heard him too.

"Great! So see you in the club often then" Brian excitedly said.

Brian looked at his watch, "I think, I have to go" he said and patted Allen's shoulder.

"Nice meeting you, Allen!" Nam said while Monika shyly smile and tilt her head. And they both follow Brian.

"See you at the club!"Javier hurriedly said to Allen. He then call Nam and Monika's name as he walks toward them, leaving Yuzuru and Yumi behind with Allen.

Yumi looked at both Yuzuru and Allen,"I will leave you two alone" she said with a weak smile. She squeeze Yuzuru's arm before he leave them.

"Nice meeting you, Allen"  Yumi said and leave.

Shine can see the camera move as Allen bow to Yumi. When Yumi is gone Allen begin to talk to Yuzuru again.

"how are you? how's your asthma? You had it pretty bad last time" Allen asked in nihongo. He wants Shine to heard Yuzuru say 'that he's okay' directly from his mouth, so Shine can be completely at peace.

"I am okay, thanks to you. Oh by the way, I am going back to Japan later tonight; to rest more. Plus, maybe I can think more clearly there. Because if I stay here..." Yuzuru said and pause, he take a deep breathe before he continue "...if I stay here, all I can think about is Shine" Yuzuru said in a way that he's like talking to someone else other than Allen.

"See! He wants you to know!" Shine's inner self said nervously.

"You're just being paranoid, Shine" Shine quietly said to herself while her heart beat become fast.

Allen adjusted his eyeglass again.

"I see!I am glad to know that you are okay now. You take care there. I guess, I'll not be seeing you again for quite a long time" Allen said and there is some kind of hopeful tone in his voice.

"Tell him that he needs to say his farewell to Min too" Shine said to Allen. Allen adjusted his ear piece.

"Does Min know about it? I think you might want to say goodbye to him, he like you so much. Seeing how he got himself into figure skating, you must really have a big impact on Min" Allen relayed in Japanese what Shine said to him.

"I plan to do it now, before I go..." Yuzuru said as he extend his hand to Allen once again and leave him.
