Going Home ( Gundham X Gonta )

Chapter two : home

Short description : The two engage in prototype debugging and rain hugging.

The gates were no match for a duo of powerful men. Where one is unsuccessful the other shines. And so they figured where and how to brake down the gate door. Neatly hidden on the east side was a weak spot, every gate has a weak spot. And every window should too. Many things have weak spots regardless of how well they are built. As they are about to find out.

"Gonta no wanna go in, gentlemen no sneak in forbidden places. I changed my mind."

"A true man would not stray and look away form a challenge."

"Keep in mind Gonta still mad ! Gonta still don't understand everything. And Gonta not an idiot who doesn't understand."

"Of course"

A minute of silence as Gundham figured out what to do next. To be honest he wasn't sure of something, and he could have explained himself right now easily, but he needed an answer. This little problem was eating him alive, now more than ever.

"Gonta saw someone inside, we gotta leave immediately."

"Nonsense, I saw it too... That was no ordinary man, that was my future poker partner."

"What ---"

Quickly he run inside, on his own, Gundham ran through the window towards the figure. Of course if Gonta got in too that would be perfect.

Inside the museum was obviously dark but what turned out unexpected was that he was alone. Gonta didn't come in alongside him. Why on earth was that ? Clearly this was one challenge he wouldn't go against, rule breaking.

Walking around, something he himself didn't want to do since he just wanted to amuse Gonta with his clever ghost hunting shenanigans, the lonesome Gundham realises his loneliness. He thinks about that a lot, but right now that's all his mind sees. The darkness only broken by the sound of rain mirrors the darkness he feels in his heart.

Walking around, something he didn't expect to have to do alone, he realised his question. He finally put it into the words he didn't have. Until now that is. It's a bit sad actually. He made himself sad. Now all he wants is to be not alone, to be with anyone, he'd even say the craving is especially hard towards wanting to be with Gonta. And that, that was the answer. He's got it all figured out now. If only he could say it all to his partner. If he still was, if he still was there.

Gonta stayed behind, watching as Gundham recklessly jumps in for trouble. What is up with that man, does he not see the importance of earthly wonders such as rules. Or mint chocolate chip ice-cream. Or having a house plant, or dressing in colour, singing along to happy songs, smiling at strangers, going to grab a coffe with friends or changing your background according to your current vibe. But what he definitely doesn't see the importance of is words. They hold power and despite Gundham choosing the most powerful-sounding words he doesn't say much that could be considered powerful. He doesn't show his emotions and that's gonna leave him lonely. In all the months they've been dating there was no cutesy, cheesy moments. As understanding as Gonta is, he still requires some level of romance. He has just noticed that. After the panic of Gundham's succubus he realised something. That it wouldn't be unusual for Gundham to have a mistress in the first place, because so far their relationship felt like it was his last priority.
