Friends (3)

"Uhh...where am i?"

"Ken, you awake...Can you see us?"

"Ohh...my head...*get up"

"Ken, don't force yourself to get up. I'll call the doctor."

"Ok dad."

"Zen, keep an eye on him."

"I will."

My dad goes out to call the doctor and now there was only me and Zen in this room.

"Ken..are you alright?"

"Yeah. How long i've been out?"

"About 2 weeks."

"What?! Time goes so fast."

"Yes. Ken... your head..."

"Hmm?? It's fine. Don't think about it."

"I am sorry...if i didn't believe him...if i didn't... you wouldn't get hurt like this..."

I saw he started to cry. Well, i see that face that look very sad and i want to hug him.

"Umm..what did he say to you?"

"He said that he was your friends and you've told me that friends are a good thing. Then he wanted to talk to me about you."

"Ohh."

I can't stand seeing his face like that...

"Well... friends are a good thing if they really are ours. You know what i mean, don't you? A real friends wont ever hurt us or leave us behind..."

"You're right..."

"And also you've to know this...that..."

"Hmmm??"

"I don't hate...you...and i don't...mind...if you become my friend...like that...so..ummm.." (blushed)

"Ehh??"

When i said that, Zen's expression changed. I can't believe he smiled at me like i feel a warm heart in his smile.

"Thank you."

Just one word but...why i blown away it? Suddenly, i pulled his hand and hugged him.

...

(At the school)

"Roy, Is Ken alright?"

"Ohh! Albert! Well his head injured but now he is okay."

"You've come to his room?"

"Nope. Zen told me."

"Why didn't you come?"

"Hmmm... don't you feel strange for both of them?"

"What do you mean?"

"I don't think Zen is Ken's cousin. Because i can't see that way they treat each other."

"Sometime you are smart as i thought."

"Ehh?!?! Then you known???"

"I've asked Ken's father last week."

(Flashback)

"Sir, Is Ken will be alright?"

"Yes.It must be. So don't get down because of that okay?"

"Yes,sir. Umm...sir can i ask some question?"

"What is it?"

"Zen is not Ken's cousin, right??"

"Why'd you think like that?"

"Just i don't think that they related because of that."

"Hmm...as i thought about you Albert. You're very smart."

"It's true?? Then what they are?"

"It's hard to explain. It's not the time that you've know all this. Well, because you already know a half of it. Can you do a favor to me?"

"Ohh.What is it, sir?"

"Just keep a secret about this and if you want to tell your friends i don't mind it but you've know what should you do, don't you?"

"I know,sir."

"Be careful, Albert. i've to going now."

"Yes. Thank you for your information, sir. Have a nice day."

(End of flashback)

"Ehh?!?! So why you've told me?"

"He said if he don't mind if i said to my friend."

"Then?!?! Who else are you telling me to?"

"Only you."

"Ehh?!?!"

"Only you i can tell. I'm hungry. Let's go."

"Oh ok."

In Roy's mind, he surprised about what Albert said. But what makes he more surprised that Albert just told it only to him. Roy wondered exactly what Albert thought of himself.

(At Ken's room)

"Ehh?? Ken?? What are you doing?"

"Hahhh??? Ohh... i'm sorry i think i'm still can't think clearly...haha.haha..."

Just what actually i thinked!!!! I'm really going crazy. I didn't realized it if i hugged him.

"Ken, it's fine. I don't mind if you want to do it again."

"Hahhh?!?! No...it's not like that..hahaha"

"Ken, i am your friend, right? then it's okay to do if you need it, right?"

"Hah? You're a friend that skinship type, are you?"

"Ehh??what is that?"

"Nevermind."

"You can do it if you want, Ken."

Zen smiled at me. I don't know why but it gives me more comfort in here. I smiling to him too.

~Without realizing it, my heart was pounding for him.
