Your Secret

Walking home with Ryouma and Taisei

*I want to ask them but Im afraid I will be judged*

Should I?

Is it worth to ask?

***

Kei: Have you guys been in love before?

Ryouma: woah! did you get one, Kei?

Kei: Not really, I afraid it will end up in a bad way

Taisei: if I were you, I won't start a relationship that I already know how it ends, it's not interesting you know

Ryouma: Hey, you need to give advice to our friend who just have developed feeling towards girls, lemme guess is that the popular kid? Whats her name again, Taisei?

Taisei: Rika!

Ryouma: right! Its her isnt?

Kei: *look away*

Taisei: Not answering? Maybe it's not true after all, Ryouma! Let grab this chance and get close with her,Im bored

Ryouma: But she ain't that pretty, or do you want to be close with her just for fun? Im up!

Taisei: Exactly my frie-

Kei: Enough!

Taisei: Whats wrong with you?

Kei: I didnt realize you guys were this bad before

Taisei: Kei,come on bud, we are just joking! Aren't you aware of yourself that you are being too emotional right now?

Kei:*even if I know I am right and can possibly win them over but will they admit their wrong? I bet they just going to blame me for all of this*

*not worth it*

When Kei realized even speak up the truth wont make them silent, he decided to leave them both behind...

Taisei: One more step ahead and we are done for *he spoke angrily*

Kei knew that this one step ahead going to ruin everything, they're going to think me as a bad person, they might brag to people how my attitude towards them, the thought of that make me feel sick

*Kei leave no choice and slowly walk away from them*

As soon as he got home*,

Kei layed on his bed and realized asking them that question literally was a mistake

"I just made things between us awkward"

"ugh!" *he covered his head with his pillow*

"Since when I have the nerve to win over them? But I do feel surprisingly great after ending that relay"

"plus, all of my group partners are with them*

*smack his own head*

After a while,

*blurp*

.

.

" I'm not even nervous but this thought really makes me feel sick"

•••

The next day at school,

"crap, everyone's eyes avoiding me"

"That just your feeling!"

*suddenly Kei heard a girl whispering to him*

*she smiled*

Magically, looking her smiling that way makes all his worries go away...

Rika: Does anything happened yesterday? You seem to doze off a lot

Kei: I broke my friendship with both of them

Rika: Both? Taisei and Ryouma? And why you should feel sad? Do you want to be friends with them so bad?

Kei: Its not like tha-

Rika: From now on, if you don't have any partner for group and anywhere to go, I'll go with you!

*suprised*

Kei: "whatever, I don't really mind that tbh" *he slowly pat her head"

*even though that wasn't the case, It feel great to have someone like her around*

They spend most of their time at school with being together, due to that, lots of rumors spreading around and it effect Kei in a bad way. Even so, he longed for this happiness, he ignored and pushed away all the rumors and focus on her...

Things seems going well for weeks,

They manage to face all the hardships together until one day, they planned to have a little chat at the park.

Rika: you know it's unlike you to meet at the park

Kei: I think we have went to all places around our neighborhood so only this park left, so I can't help about that (giggle)

Kei: I think you haven't yet come to my house, I often have a breakfast at your house since then, don't you want to come over?

Rika: How about now?

Kei: now?

Rika: YES!!! Catch me if you can!!!! (run)

Kei: you know what, don't underestimate me Rika, Im faster than you thought! *trying to beat Rika that have been far ahead from him*

Suddenly,

*kei stopped*

Kei quickly sat on the ground and take a deep breath heavily*

Rika: Kei?

*Rika turn around and quickly approach Kei*

"What's the matter, are you okay?"

"I slipped hahaha you should just go on ahead"

He lied

He well known this because of his asthma and several other reasons but he just couldn't say it now

*cough*

"**** this is blood"

"Hey Kei, this doesn't looking too good, lemme ask my dad to bring you to hospital"

"I would appreciate if you could bring me home"

"please Rika, I'm fine that way"

She finally reached his house,

*laid him down*

Unexpectedly, he fall asleep just that easy

Rika take out her phone and call her dad

"dad?"

"Rika it's almost 7pm, why haven't you come home yet? Where are you? Lemme come and get you"

"dad,I'm staying at Kei's house today, Kei doesn't look too good"

"I'm so mad, I want to lecture you and stuff but I will put that aside, what's wrong with that kid?"

"This evening we were playing, I ran from him so he tried to catch me because Im way too far from him, then he suddenly stopped and coughed blood, I will just accompany him for tonight,sorry dad for not coming home"

"Tomorrow, I will come to that kid's house and lets have breakfast there"

"aww thank you dad, you are the best"

"take care sweetheart, call me if anything, "

"bye dad"

The call ended

While she was walking around his house,

"Is that bottles of medicine? Wait what are these?"

"What?"

"you gotta be kidding me"
