[CLOSED] Techi Short Stories

Nagahama Neru, Kakizaki Memi

"First Zuumin"
"Then Yone"
"Then Pippi" Hirate started mumbling after receiving the news that Memi is graduating

"Yurina calm down" Neru tried to calm her down after knowing that the younger have received the news as well

"Next is you"
"Now Memi?!"
"How do you expect me to calm down when everyone around me is leaving?!" Hirate's voice just gets louder and louder as she became more agitated.

*Ding*

A message came and Hirate glance over at her phone to see a message from Memi, she immediately picked up her phone to look at the message as tears started falling.

'Yurina... Please forgive me...'

"What did she mean by this?! She needs to explain!" Hirate said loudly to no one as she tried to call Memi but was sent to the voicemail instead.

"Yurina... Give her some time, she will talk to you once she is ready okay?" Neru tried again to calm the crying girl by hugging her

"You and her, both of you are just the same. No... In fact, all of you are the same! I'm always the last one to find out!" Hirate shouted as she push Neru away from her before she drops onto her knees and grab onto her head.

"We are doing this to protect you Yurina! We know how sensitive you are and how easy for you to get hurt, we decided to find a better time to let you know" Neru explained

"All of you are just like this! Nobody cares about how I really feel yet decide everything for me! All of you are just selfish!" Hirate turned and shouted to Neru in tears

"Hirate Yurina, I've had enough. You said we are selfish, what about you?! Have you ever thought of what we want? How we feel? We are not going to stay in Keyaki forever, not me and not even you! Can't you just understand and respect our decision?! Are you really going to be a brat now and make all this noise because we decided to graduate?! This is our choice! Not yours!" Neru burst out at Hirate which left Hirate in shock before running out of the house

"Wait! Yurina!" Neru called out wanting to follow before someone grabs onto her hand

"Let her be, she will be fine. Give her some time to calm down" Moriya who was witnessing everything told Neru "You know the real reason why Memi decide to graduate don't you?"

Neru glance over at Moriya before looking down "Was I too harsh on her?" she asked avoiding the question Moriya asked

"No you weren't, what you said was right. Tecchan needs to accept reality as well" Moriya decided not to pry if Neru doesn't want to answer her question

After Hirate ran away, she was in fact feeling guilty after hearing what Neru said. Neru has never gotten angry at anyone before and she knew this time around, she was really too much. She felt that what Neru said was true and she was really too much at throwing her tantrum at them instead of understanding their stand. She didn't know where else to go and her legs brought her to the hill where she and Memi use to go to after class unknowingly. 

Night came and there was no sign of Hirate returning, that made everyone panic as she has never disappeared for this long before. They decided to go out to look for her as it was getting really late but they didn't know where to start. Neru called Memi and explained what had happened and Memi stood up immediately and answered Neru "I'll join the search" before hanging up.

Everyone was at a loss as nobody could find Hirate and her phone was switched off. They were so close to calling the police when Neru received a message from Memi before smiling slightly and told the members that they can return home as Memi have found Hirate and would talk to her personally.
