"tooku de me o hikarasete mezameru monotachi matte iru
yoru no jouheki sasowarete utsurisumu mure no nukegara ni
(deguchi no nai) shougeki ni tae.." as the phone was ringing… Hiro searched for it…

He searched high and low until Fujisaki had to give him a hand… finally he found it under the piles of music sheets.Picking it up and listening to the call…

"mushi mushi.. Hiro desu..."

"nah Hiro.."said the pink-haired rockstar with a different tone.

" Hey why the moody voice?" asked Hiro.

"It's nothing.. Hey, Hiro do you think You could do me a favour? Can you help me apply for a month's leave from K?"

"Sure but why can't you do it yourself? And one month? That's kinda long for a vacation with Yuki!"

"I'm not going on vacation with Yuki…" Shuichi paused for a little while… trying to bring out the guts to tell Hiro where he will be going, knowing Hiro might get mad.

"Hello? Are you still there? Shuich..

"I'm going back to see my DAD!" after saying this Shuichi's tears started to fall..

"Hoi.. why the sudden notice? You're not seriously thinking bout going are you?"

"Mom called the other day, she said tat dad wants to see me and I've been avoiding her call for a week now.. knowing my dad will.." Shuichi couldn't say anything more. His tear kept rolling till his voice could not be heard.

Fujisaki was standing next to Hiro wondering why Hiro had the worried face which would not normally be seen…He was really confused. He wanted to know wat was goin on.

"Shuichi! If your really going to see your dad, PROMISE ME tat you would be fine! I don't want to go to the hospital again..

After hearing that last sentence, Fujisaki really got confused! He thought What's wit him? Why is he asking Shuichi-san to be careful just because he is goin to see his dad?Why was he talking about goin to the hospital? He really wanted to know wat was goin on! He had a hundred and onethousand questions to ask him.

Hiro put down the phone.. He was starring blankly at the wall. He knew wat Shuichi's dad might do. He was worried. The last time Shuichi went to see his dad, he ended up all bruised!

While Hiro was in his deep thoughts.. Fujusaki interrupted him. Shocked as he is now, Hiro pretend that nothing happen.He sat down on the sofa that was in their usual conference room.

"Shuichi won't be coming for qork for a while" said Hiro.

Fujisaki nodded and asked why. All Hiro said was you will know sooner or later.

With that, Fujisaki said nothing, bothe of them were keeping quiet in the conference room.

After putting down the phone, Shuichi stared at it for a long time.. trying to braise himself to call his beloved Yuki to tell him about his trip. He tried his best to call. Every time when he was ready, he dialed the number but in the end his hand wouldn't press the call button. So instead of calling him, he sent him a text message.

"Neeeeee.. Yuuukiii, I won't be back home for a week from today. I am goin back home to my parent's house tonight. So don't wait for me kay? Yuki wa Daisuki! He tried type as jolly as possible so that the ingenious author would not suspect anything weird happening.

Tuuuut tuuuuuut.. ringed Yuki's phone. He read the message and text back " Good riddance! Don't come back so early" he didn't know tat shuichi was in a weird way today so he sent it just as a joke.

After reading the message Shuichi covered his mouth as tears slid down from his amethyst eyes. He knew Yuki didn't mean it but he wasn't in the mood for harsh words.

Yuki stared at his phone waiting anxiously for a reply from his lover. He waited and waited but there was still no reply. He thought something was wrong. So he called shuchi. As shuichi's phone rang, he tried his best to stop crying. He breathed in and out several times before answering it.

" Oi, baka .. what took you so long to pick up ur phone?" asked the impatient author.

"Sorry.. I was in the bathroom" said the crying boy as he tried to be perky.

Some how.. Yuki's felt that something was wrong when he heard his lover's voice. It sounded sandy and coarsed.

"when will you be coming home?

"soon…"

After that, shuichi hang the phone.
