Love so Life

11.

I arrived at the gym, waiting for Mr. Kogami.
Where is he..? He said after school, here I am...
Confused, I went inside to start without him.
Colours and material are already placed on a table.
Maybe he was already here...?
I start to repair the damaged things.

Meanwhile is Mr. Kogami on his way to Yuuki.

"Crap, I'm late..."
In time where he almost arrived at the gym.
"Kogami sensei...!"
He stopped in his tracks, and looks at the boy who is running out of breath.
"Oh, you must be Subar--"
Mr. Kogami tried to greet him, but he interrups.
"No time for that sensei! I have to talk to you!"
Mr. Kogami looks at Subaru surprised.
He hesitates, his gaze on the gym.
"Five minutes."
Subaru's eyes shine happily.
The two of them walked a little farther away.
"Okay, what's wrong..?"
Taking a last deep breath, Subaru begins to admit."
"I'm the culprit."
Mr. Kogami says nothing, not knowing what he means by that.
"Culprit? What do you mean...?"
Mr. Kogami can't help, but to hope it was about that.
"Tachinbana is innocent...! It was my fault. She only defended me..! I'm really sorry...!!"
He bows deeply.
"..."
Mr. Kogami says nothing, his eyes wide open.
He eventually lays a hand on Subaru's head.
He looks up surprised.
Subaru's eyes widen when he sees Mr. Kogami smiling.
"It's good you said the truth, really. Well, what are we going to do about you?"
Mr. Kogami thinks about the sad look on Yuuki's face, when she sat there on the cold ground. His heart hurts.
"Please come to me when school ends at monday."
He smiled when he said that, but his tone is heart broken.
Subaru nods, bows and left him.
When Subaru was out of sight, laid Mr. Kogami his hand on his head, his expression grave.
"I'm so stupid..."
He makes his way to the gym again.
"Hey,..."
He wanted to apologize to Yuuki, when he saw her sitting on the ground sleeping soundly.
He glances at the finished material on the tables, even better than the first ones.
"Hm, good job."
His gaze turns serious, and he's bowing at her.
"I'm sorry. For everything. I should have known that you're innocent. I'm so stupid.."
Yuuki's gaze turns very calm, after his words.
He smiles, and crouches down.
"She really is something..."

He carefully strokes her cheek, and she moans tiredly.
"Mmh..."
He quickly removes his hand, blushing.

He smiles wryly, before calling at the orphange.

"Mhm..."
A weird dream woke me up. I find myself lying in my bed.
I dreamed Mr. Kogami apologized to me.. And then he even...
I touched my cheek, and my face blushed.
What an embarrassing dream.
I covered my face with my hands.
My door knocked suddenly.
In came Shiharu, smiling brightly.
"Oh, you're awake...! You were totally out of it."
She laughed, I nod.
"By the way..."
She sits herself on my bed, blushing slightly. "Do you have a...boyfriend..?"
I gasped.
"Where did that come from...??"
I asked my heart is pounding.
She looks confused.
"No...? But who was the one who brought you home?"
What...? Now that she metions it, who brought me home in the first place...?
"He was really sweet and seemed to really care about you, you know?"
She looks really happy for me.
She thaughts for a while, and seems to have remembered something.
"Oh, wait a second!"
She hurries out of the room, and came back with...
"A jacket...?"
Yes, Shiharu came back with a jacket. I recognize it, but can't really think of anyone though.
"The man covered you with it when he brought you here. He forgot to take it back though."
Wait. Now I rember! It's Mr. Kogami's jacket..! But why...
Shiharu notices my strange look, and asks me.
"Do you remember now...?"
I came back to reality and nod.
"Oh yes..He's not my boy...friend..."
Why do I feel so disappointed though. Of course we're not a pair...
I take the jacket and thank Shiharu. She left after that.
I embraced the jacket before I put it in a small bag.

I laid myself to bed, thinking to myself.
Tomorrow's weekend, so I can't give it to him until monday. Maybe I should visit him, and...
I vigorously shook my head of the crazy idea, and suddenly remembered what day tomorrow actually is...
With many thoughts I'm slowly drifting to sleep.

Meanwhile at 1:00 am in the night.
Mr. Kogami tears his eyes open.
"Crap, I forgot my jacket at the orphange."
With full of plans for excuses he's slowly drifting into sleep again.
