Soukoku : I Hate You But I Love You

Chapter 16 : Complicated

they Crashed...

the car was all damaged and Chuuya was unconscious and wounded, Megumi, on the other hand, was conscious but had multiple wounds on her body, she tried to move but his feet were stuck and can't get out. "Chuuya! Chuuya!" she called out, shaking him up to wake up.

the gas was leaking and it's only a matter of time before the car explodes.

Chuuya was now conscious, he feels pain all over his whole body, but then like Megumi, they can't get out. He used his ability to get out, Megumi got out of the car first and Chuuya followed after.

they both walk away as far as they could from the car and then the car exploded. Megumi was relieved that they got out in time, but then Chuuya Coughed blood. Chuuya was pierced by a metal to his stomach "c-c-Chuuya, w-w-we need to get you to the hospital" Megumi said stuttering. She was about to help Chuuya but then the redhead mafia shoves his hand away and started to walk on his own.

~~~~~

Dazai was at the office reading his favorite book when president Fukuzawa entered the room, "it seems you're the only one in here" he said while walking toward's Dazai.

"they all have cases to investigate and I was left here because they all said they need someone in here to look after the office, there might be someone who needs our help" 

Fukuzawa nodded and noticed a slight frown on the brunette's face "is there anything wrong Dazai?" the president said, but he just shook his head and said: "no, nothing" 

"you know you can talk to me anything, even though it's not work-related"

Dazai looked up at Fukuzawa who is walking closer to the chair beside him and sat down. "so what is it?" 

the brunette closed his book and put it on his desk, he scratches his head while finding the right words to start telling whats on his mind. "the thing is, I have something on my mind and I don't know what to do about it"

Fukuzawa nodded as he listens to Dazai, "and?" 

"and... I think it's getting more complicated for me. my heart says love, but my mind says hate."

"So this is a love problem... I don't really have experience on this kind of things but, for me, you must listen to both and make a list of things that your mind and heart agreed about whoever it is."

Dazai leaned back to his chair and looked up to the ceiling "if only that was simple"

Yosano and Ranpo entered the room as the president stood up from his seat "well it's best that you try Dazai" he said as he walks back to his office.

Chuuya was still bleeding, he didn't want to go to the hospital nor go back to his apartment, so Megumi tends his wounds.

It started to rain, gladly they found a small cave, enough for them to get shelter for the meantime.

Chuuya was bleeding so badly. Megumi left the sleeping Chuuya when the rain stopped and bought medicine and bandages in the near convenience store.

When Megumi got back Chuuya was already awake and trying to stand up but he fell down. She helped the ginger-haired to get back on his feet.

"we need to get you to the hospital," Megumi said, while struggling on carrying Chuuya, gladly Chuuya was small and lightweight, she just doesn't know what path should they take since they were on the woods, lost in the darkness.

she took her phone out of her pocket and saw that it was damaged. she put it back on her pocket and took Chuuya's phone. "25% battery, low signal, we need to call someone Chuuya" the ginger-haired didn't respond at his sister. She tried to call some of the numbers in Chuuya's phone but none of them answered as if they don't care about him. until a message popped up on the phone screen.

shuuji619 : Hello

but Megumi ignored it as she doesn't know if she can trust the one who sends the message. but then again another message popped up on the screen.

shuuji619 : um, slug, are you there?

shuuji619 : it's been a while since we last chatted, how are you?

and that's when Megumi thought that it was just a chat friend of Chuuya, she started walking again and after half hour they reached the road and waited for a taxi but no one came.

luckily Tachihara was taking a road trip when they saw Megumi on the road, "Chuuya san?, Megumi Chan?" 

Megumi was crying and fell on his knees, Tachihara parked his car and went out. she pleaded help from Tachihara to take Chuuya at the hospital. they both carried Chuuya to his car and went to the nearest hospital.

~~~~~~

when they reached the hospital, the nurses came and took Chuuya to the emergency room, and another nurse tends Megumi's wounds, scratches, and bruises. after that, Megumi and Tachihara waited for the doctor outside the emergency room.

after an hour, the doctor came out and said : "he's in a stable condition now, gladly there is no vital organs damage...he needs some rest" Megumi sighed in relieved and hugged Tachihara, not knowing what she is doing, maybe she is just happy because her known little brother is safe now.

Tachihara explained everything to them in the chatroom and ask them to keep all the information a secret for a while until Chuuya regains consciousness.

Shuuji AKA Dazai Osamu read everything in the chat and can't help but worry. he thought of visiting the Chuuya but refrained himself because of his piled work in the ADA and mostly the reason is his complicated feelings to the petite mafia.

I don't know why, but I feel like I'm unloved. TT ^ TT 

and because of that, I don't have the motivation to write anything about love...

but oh well, I need to update, so HANG ON HEART & MIND I still need to update 2 stories related to that L word...

or maybe it's just the rain that causes this sadness upon me...
