Beautiful Affection

CHAPTER 30

One of Tokiya's lines is based on a Korean Drama, Suspicious Partner. And about how Masato was released from the prison... well, like the previous chapter, don't take it seriously. He was released because I wanted it lol. Just like he's sick but I never mention what's the illness.

CHAPTER 30

"I miss you, Masato."

"I miss you too."

Haruka and her kids were still hugging Masato right after he was released from the prison. They missed him so much and while the worry about the man's condition kept clouding their minds, they were still proud of his bravery.

When it was the time for him to face his friends especially Tokiya, the loving atmosphere turned into in an awkward manner. The twins kept staring at each other wordlessly but the rest of them did not to be a genius to guess that they were silently conveying just how much they felt grateful to meet each other again in their current states.

Tokiya with his deserved justice and Masato with his freedom.

"You..." Tokiya initiated. This was so awkward. A clichéd and childish thought occurred in his mind. If only he could transform into Natsuki or Otoya who were consistently affectionate with everyone, he would hug Masato and say thanks for 1000 times but apart from his stiff personality factor, their friendship did not work that way. "If you pull that kind of stunt again, I won't forgive you."

"You're welcome," Masato replied cheekily. He was holding Natsuki's arm for support but the big guy had another idea.

"What's with this serious mode? We're supposed to hug each other and cheer for our victory!" with the declaration, Natsuki pulled Tokiya closer, trapping both the blue heads into his arms. "STARISH hug, activated!"

"Wow, that's cool!" Otoya supplied, dragging the surprised Cecil to join them.

"Otoya, no! That's embarrassing! Hey, Syo! Come here! If I can't escape, so can't you!"

"Let me go, you jerk!"

"This one brings me back the very old memories," Ren remarked, being the last one to join the circle.

"Wait, wait! I don't approve this! Let me go!" Tokiya said, blush quickly dusted his face upon seeing their strange position. He ended up grabbing Masato's shoulder for support while their bodies were too close to each other.

"Are you guys out of mind!? We're too old to do this!" Syo shouted whose face was also as red as Tokiya. "Masato, do something! This is too embarrassing!"

"It's fun, though," Masato said with a singing voice, earning a horrified gasp from Tokiya.

They could not care less when people around them and also reporters snapped their pictures. It was too nice to be together again, no matter how dorky and lame their position was.

"Harumi, please help me here," Tokiya said, desperately. It was even more embarrassing when Harumi smiled widely while Mitsuki clapped her hands happily.

For Haruka? This was the best gift ever.

"STARISH hug!" Mitsuki exclaimed while putting her short hands up.

"Ojichan, you always hug me every time we see each other."

"That's totally different! They aren't cute, unlike you!"

"Hey, that's mean. Syo is cute, though," Ren supplied.

"What was that!?" The said and cute guy whined right away.

At that night, even all kinds of media were fulfilled with their sweet moments, fans expressed their gratification to see STARISH united, they needed privacy. They celebrated their victory in Otoya's restaurant or to be specific, in their personal VIP room which patiently waited for itself to be fulfilled with seven people instead of five.
