Always Remembering A Forgotten Love

Chapter Nineteen Decision

Yahiro POV

I was standing in the middle of the park, holding a hat. I was gazing through the girl running the flight of stairs, I can't see her face and based on the light, it was already sunset. When she reached the top, she went to the railing and held it, she inhaled and then she started singing. My eyes started to water as I heard the melody, why do I feel so familiar hearing this song? I can't even see the girl's face but she seem to bring out my true self. I want to listen to this song forever. I closed my eyes. When the song started to fade I opened my eyes and I saw a familiar ceiling. I was in my room, 3 weeks already passed since I was discharged from the hospital. I know that my friends have been up to something because they keep taking me to places I don't remember and whenever they take me to those places, my head hurts. Sometimes, I find it weird because the silhouettes I see in my dreams seem to resemble Megumi greatly and every time I try to remember the girl, my head hurts like it's going to crack.

I was wearing a business suit, I'm going to the company since it's summer and classes won't start yet. I headed for the car and drove off.

Megumi POV

I was sitting on the sofa at Akira-chan's house and I was facing everyone.

"Guys, I know what you are up to. You want Yahiro to remember me. I know that but you should wait before doing this. He might remember me in the future; you don't need to force him. Besides the doctor said not to force him or anything right? he also said that we should avoid talking about the time he forgot and that we should help him create more memories." I started

"We know, we were just doing it considering your feelings." Hikari-chan reasoned.

"I know. I'm fine already, I'm just happy now that he's alive. It brings more than enough joy for me. I hope you understand. My wish for now is for him to continue living, if the memories with me is the price for him to stay alive, I'm more than grateful to accept that." I said and they all shared a look of worry but they didn't say anything.

We all left and I headed to the park, I sat on the gazebo. I opened my phone and looked at my wallpaper. It was a picture of me and Yahiro. I looked into my ring finger and saw the ring. I kept gazing at the people on the park and just looked back at my memories with him. I was searching for the decision I should make right now. Should I let him go?

As I was watching the crowd, I saw him, Yahiro standing near the bench we stayed at when we had our trial date. I decided to approach him.

"Hey, can you keep me company for a while?" I asked, he saw me and he seemed a bit surprised by my presence.

"Okay." He replied, since he was discharged from the hospital things have been awkward for us. We took a walk, I notice he kept glancing at his watch so I asked the question I wanted to ask for a long time now.

"Yahiro, are you happy now?" I asked as the wind blows. He suddenly stopped walking. I faced him and he looks conflicted.

Yahiro POV

"Yahiro are you happy now?" She asked me. I stopped. I know I was happy but something tells me that if I answer this question something's gonna change. I was confused with my thoughts so I decided to answer her honestly.

"I am, I have my friends, and I have my family. Even though I lost some memories, I'm happy the way things are right now." I said with a smile on my face.

"Sorry I need to go now." I walked away, not looking back at her

Megumi POV

When I heard his answer, I expected it. He walked away not looking back at me. I finally decided what to do. I finally found my resolve. I went back home and gathered my things. I made sure to take it all like didn't exist. I know Jun and Ryuu-nii will be home late because they helped with Kei's company. I immediately headed to the post office and sent what I wanted to send. I went to the airport and got a ticket to United States. I decided to go to Berklee College of Music located in Boston, Massachusetts, United States. I was waiting for my flight and someone took the seat beside me.
