Hirate Yurina's One Shot!

It's Fine

Nagahama Neru, member of one of the most popular idol group from Keyakizaka46 decides to graduate. Many people didn't expected it to happen this fast, and thanks to that some people we're disappointed by the announcement. Not just the fans, but also the member of Keyakizaka46 itself that regret they can't do anything to stop Neru.

Especially this one member that being the first one to accept Nagahama Neru's existence when she entered the group later. Neru felt that she should talked to her but she's always avoiding her in purpose.

Now Keyakizaka46 members have lesson practice for their next upcoming single, Black Sheep. Neru always took a glance to their center not far away from her. She's feel bad about it.

"You didn't want to talk to her?"

Watanabe Risa speak to Neru as she's pointing out their center, Hirate Yurina that still practising more even though they're took a break now.

"I didn't have the courage. Techiko still mad at me." Neru sighed softly.

"Just try it. You won't know it if you didn't give a chance."

Risa smiles to Neru before she walks away to annoy Oda Nana.

"Just try it, huh?"

It's already an hour that their practice lesson done. The only ones who left are Neru and Yurina that begin to packing her things. Holding two bottle of mineral water, Neru approaching Yurina not far away from her.

"Otsukaresama, Techi." Neru gave her one of the bottle water to her.

Yurina take the offer after she looked confused to Neru.

"…Otsukaresama, Neru."

Neru sat down beside her, watching Yurina drinking almost half of the bottle mineral water she give.

"You didn't go home yet? It's already late." Asked Yurina without looking at Neru.

"I'm already an adult. It's you who should have been told that." Neru giggles.

"Oh yeah. I forgot about that." Yurina smiles.

"It's been quiet a long time we don't go home together... So that's why I wait for you." Said Neru quietly.

"Really? I don't think that's the case right?"

Bull's eyes. Yurina know what's Neru up to, but she pretend like she doesn't know.

"Don't say it like that." The long haired girl said while hiding her face embarrassed.

"Okay okay, don't hide your face okay?"

Yurina takes Neru's wrist to let her sees her face directly. Their gaze meet each other quiet time before Neru looks away from the younger girl.

"Let's go home, Neru. We will talk on the way home." Said Yurina smiles.

'It's so awkward... I have to say something.'

The long hair girl took a deep breath to calm herself. She must choose her words wisely or else, Yurina will get upset.

"…I'm sorry. That I'm avoiding Neru before." Said Yurina feel sorry.

"Ah no, it's fine. It's normal if you do that to me. I'm... Being selfish right? I announce my graduation just like that." Neru clenched her clothes.

Yurina stopped right in front of Neru, staring at the older girl intensely. Of course, Neru flustered with that.

"No. Sometimes... It's fine if you being selfish once in a while."

"Really? Am I... Not wrong to choose this way?"

"I don't know for that. It's you who decide whatever the answer."

"Then how about Tecchan? How do you feel about my graduate announcement?"

Finally Neru asked Yurina about how she really feel about her. It's selfish to leaves the group especially Yurina herself. But she have to go. She can't go back or saying her graduation is a pranks.

"How I feel? Are Neru sure to hear about it?" Asked Yurina with another question.

"It's fine than never heard what you feels about this. After all... You're a precious person to me." Neru gives a smile to the younger girl.

"I don't want Neru to graduate. At least not this fast. We still need Neru, I also... need Neru the most. Keyaki haven't got stable yet but Neru decided to leave anyway. It's not that long Keyaki have just lost Zuumin, Yone, Manaka and now... It's Neru."

Yurina sheds tears but she quickly brushes it off with her sleeves. Neru just can't believe what she just heard by now, it's even more difficult that any quiz she have done.

"So... That's what you feels." Neru blinked her eyes few times.

"Neru, you meanie..."

"…Tecchan really love Keyaki, huh?"

"After all... It's because of Keyaki we can meet everyone. And also the reason why I glad to meet someone like Neru."

Then they're fell silent while staring at each other eyes. It's like they're talking from their gaze, without any single words that can describe.  They walked together like that until when they're in front of the dorm, Yurina stopped walking.

"Neruko... You can leave Keyaki to me and everyone. So don't worry about how others thinking about you. They don't have the right to bad-mouthing how Neru go through till now." Yurina said with confident.

"Techiko... Then you accept my graduation?" Asked Neru even though she feels happy with what the younger girl said.

"For personal, no. For Neru's sake... Yes. That's my answer. Even though I asked Neru to cancel it, you won't stop after all." Yurina laugh a little bit.

Neru took a few steps to stand right in front of Yurina without leaving her calming gaze. She put her right hand on Yurina's head, brushing the fluffy short hair gently. Of course, the younger girl feels embarrassed with what Neru done.

"You have grown up, Techi. And yes. Whatever you said, I'm still going to graduate anyway." Neru smiles.

Yurina didn't say anything as she just keep staring at Neru a little embarrassed.

"…I'm sorry. For make you to carry all of the pressure."

"No. Neru have been doing her best when I'm not around. So... We're even."

Neru really glad that she meet someone like Yurina. Despite being the spoiled kid, you can count on her. Even sometimes she forget that Yurina is the youngest in first gen Kanji Keyaki.

"Now... Just leave it to us. We will make sure Neru feels glad that you entered Keyaki. Even though it's won't be easy."

"Techi..."

"And we still have times until July. That way... I can send off Neru well."

"Then... Please take care of me till the end."

Yurina nodded her head, as agreement. Then they're promise to spend time more often even when Neru graduates later.
