Don't feel stupid if you don't like what everyone else pretends to love.

SASURA
A message. A single message. What should I feel? Why doesn't it kill me? Why don't I feel sad or sorrow? Why can't I feel pain with this?
'I'm sorry. I'm gonna stop. I'll stop courting you, getting you, being with you. This is all on me. But I'm sure I did love you. 100% sure. But always remember that I'll be here for you. Always.'
It was from Vash. My savior. My friend. The one who got to understand me. The one who didn't left me and let me down. And now, he's gone too. Am I such a disgrace? That everyone who enters my life leaves?
"Yeah it tings. But not as painful as it tings." I whispered to myself.
"What tings?"
I was startled when I heard a voice from my back. I turned around only to see Kai. Holding up two coffees in his hand. He sat beside me and I just handed him my phone in exchange for the coffee.
"What the actual f...."
"Don't even say it. It's a big mystery until I go back home."
"Doesn't it hurt?" I placed down my coffee before looking and smiling at him with closed eyes.
"It does. But my little heart is just not that occupied with all that pain and sorrow. Maybe it hurts because I lost a friend not because I lost a..."
"I get it."
"I just hope he's alright."
He nodded and stood up with a heart warming smile on his face, "let's go to work?"
"Yipee!" I said in a lazy manner.
He chuckled before dragging me to his car. Well, I've been out of the hospital for a three days now. And have been working for two days. I just really wish this turns out well.
And about the cemetery trip? Well, it didn't go as exactly as planned. We all went together. And I think you know what I mean already. It was awkward as fuck. Imagine? The person who killed you went to visit you with your friends.
"Camera ready?"
"As always." I said with a smirk.
We went out of his car and went to Tsuya's studio. Well, it was actually her's and Shinan. But this isn't really Shinan's main studio. It's like they just share for some reason.
"Good morning!" She happily said.
Kai answered with another greeting while I just nodded at her. I saw her eyes saddened but then was replaced by a wide smile.
"Let's start?"
I tell you her art is just wow. It's so pleasing to the eyes. And you can even tell the message behind the painting. I tell you it's so beautiful.
"Well, since you know that this will be featured in the news and on magazines and on newspapers, Rochi will be writing it since her course is Journalism. I just want it to be as simple as you can."
We only nodded at her request. Well if you think this is our only job, it's a no. We have to travel to places to capture stuff for the magazine. This is actually gonna be a great start for us.
I started capturing pictures of her art. One art caught my attention. It's a painting of five friends having fun. It's actually placed in the 'Short Story' part in her studio. I went to see the next one.
