Three Days Later...

A day after the phone call I traveled back home and immediately headed to the hospital. When I got there, the doctor from on the phone told me that Mom's condition was declining more rapidly than they had predicted. Since then, I've spent every moment I haven't been getting food in her hospital room with her. Me and her talked for a bit and I told her about my friendship with Ichiro and my relationship with Kanata which she was so happy about. She always told me that your cooking will reflect your heart and so I should remember the people that I'm cooking for and my loved ones. Tonight, after I went and had some dinner, I went and sat on the chair in her hospital room and dozed off.

When I woke up, I looked like Mom wasn't breathing.

"Mom?"

Kanata's Perspective

Two Weeks Later...

I laid out onto my bed and thought to myself "Y/n hasn't been answering his texts for about a week and he's been gone awfully long." The last time I saw him, he seemed off so I began to worry "I bet he's just been really busy so he can't check for texts. But maybe I should call him." I pulled out my phone and tried to call him and after waiting on the ringer for a minute I was sent to voicemail. I tried to call him again during lunch but again was sent to voicemail.

Yuu saw my expression and asked "Is something wrong? You seem out of it."

I looked up "Oh, hey Yuu. It's just I'm a little worried about my boyfriend."

"Y/n? Why are you worried about him?"

"He had to go back two weeks ago and I haven't been able to contact him for the past week and when I last saw him in person, he got a phone call and was really out of it afterwards."

"I'm sure he'll be fine but is there anything I can do to help?" Yuu said.

I thought for a moment and said "Would you please accompany me to the dorms after practice? I'm gonna see if his friend Ichiro has heard from him."

"You mean Yoshitake? I think he's in my class so I'll ask him if he can meet up with us after class."

"Thanks"

------------------------

When I got to the clubroom for practice, Yuu came to me and said "I talked to Yoshitake and he said we don't need to head to the dorms and that he'll meet us in the courtyard."

We then had practice but as much as I tried, I couldn't get my concerns for y/n out of my head.

Once we were done, I changed back into my school clothes then Yuu and I headed out to the courtyard. Waiting in the courtyard for us was Ichiro sitting on a bench and when he saw us he said "Hey Konoe-senpai. What's up?"

"It's about y/n, I haven't been able to get into contact with him and was wondering if you've heard anything from him in the past couple days." I answered

Ichiro's expression then became more serious as he said "So you haven't heard from him either? I would have figured he would at least still be in contact with you. I texted with him a little bit when he got home, but the last I saw him in person he came to my room super early in the morning and told me he would be away. I tried to ask him why but he avoided talking about it and he seemed pretty distracted."

I thought to myself for a second and said "Maybe I should visit him. Do you know where he's from?"

Ichiro was silent for a minute and said "I think he mentioned Iwama one time."

"Iwama? Isn't that in Ibaraki?" Yuu said

"Thanks Ichiro." Going from here to Iwama is at minimum a nearly two hour train ride. I think if I get on the train early on Saturday I'll have the rest of the day to find y/n and I'll head home the next day. Y/n please be okay. I'm coming.

A/n: Tomorrow and Thursday will be oneshots and I'll publish a larger chapter that concludes the drama on Friday. I've had a lot of motivation to write these past few days and once the drama concludes the story will end in four to five chapter.
