Just move on girl

"Mayama..." everyone seemed to chorus his name in their thoughts just by hearing the first line, especially Yamada who winced in pain, she couldn't bear the pain in her heart anymore. She felt like she was gonna explode into tears really soon, but nevertheless, she listened to the lyrics of the song Mayama just sang.

You can't keep on hiding the pain

Just forget about me now

There's no sense in telling you how

"I can't stand this anymore... This is just so painful... I know I can never have him, but why the hell am I hoping this much??? God, it hurts so bad!" Yamada just wanted to jump from her seat and rush outside, but it was a good thing Nomiya was right beside her, he tapped her foot with his own to remind her that she must overcome this.

Memories flooded Yamada's mind again. The times when she always confronted Mayama about his feelings for Rika.

You can't keep blaming things on me

"Don't act so cool Mayama... You can't even confess to a girl..." Yamada said as she tried to act cool in front of him. It was a really cold day, it was enough to make her shiver, in pain.

"Shut up Yamada! Why are you always saying these things to me? If you think I don't know about you having feelings for me then you're wrong. I know Yamada. I'm not blind. I'm not blind enough to notice the way you act whenever I'm around. Can't you please just mind your own business from now on?" his tone was so cold. It was colder than the rain, just enough to make her wince in pain.

Coz I know that I can never…

Well I'm sure, that I'm not the only one

Well I'm sure, that there'll be someone else

"I never knew until I looked at the both of them carefully. I was just so selfish. I never knew Mayama felt exactly the same thing as I did. No wonder he always wanted to keep those things to himself. We're the same... Mayama doesn't like me, because we're exactly the same... He thinks it's too uncool to look at me and be reminded of how uncool he was..." Yamada crumpled her skirt, it was already stained with the tears that fell from her swollen eyes.

I'm sure, that you'll forget me soon

And I'm sure, that I can never make you happy

I know I can't stand seeing you like this,

It hurts when I see you cry

But things will never change

Even if the time goes by

Oh girl, I don't wanna keep this up

Forget me now, just forget me now yeah

Well I'm sure, that I'm not the only one

Well I'm sure, that there'll be someone else

I'm sure, that you'll forget soon

And I'm sure, that I can never make you happy

Well I'm sure, that I'm not the only one

Well I'm sure, that there'll be someone else

I'm sure, that you'll forget soon

And I'm sure, that I can never make you happy

Well I'm sure

Just that I'm sure

Though it hurts me to see you cry

But we should now say, goodbye

The instrumental kept playing, until the lyrics of the song appeared on the screen again, but Mayama didn't bother finishing the song. He just walked out surprising everyone, it wasn't because he couldn't take singing the song anymore, but because Rika called.

From her phone, Rika could hear some sounds.

"Are you in a karaoke bar right now Mayama?" Rika asked from the other line,

"Yes I am, I'm on my way out now actually, do you want me to get you something to eat?" Mayama asked her, and also trying his best not to let Morita out of the door.

Inside, Hagu was trying her best to comfort Yamada.

"You know Morita, this was such a bad idea..." Takemoto said to Morita who was still kicking and punching the door to go out,

"What? I just thought it was best for the three of them to let their feelings out by singing here rather than hide it in themselves!" he replied back to Takemoto who was surprised with the serious tone he had, Yamada and the others were surprised as well.

"Thank you, Morita," Nomiya suddenly said which made Yamada turn in surprise and just smile.

"She has never smiled like that for a long time already," Hagu whispered to Takemoto who just nodded in agreement.

Yamada's smile made Morita quite happy.

Although the whole karaoke thing seemed like a bad idea to start, it was pretty much good actually, at least Yamada realized something that Mayama isn't the only guy in the whole wide world, and in fact Nomiya is still pretty much around. Mayama realized how much Yamada wanted him, and how she was willing to wait for him. Nomiya realized that, he still has a chance.

There were so many realizations that day. Everyone of them realized that life has to go on, even with some missing pieces in it. No matter how painful love would be, a new one will grow eventually which will lead into a much better relationship.

Even if some things have to be ended, no matter how beautiful you've started it, or how much you've sacrificed already just to not let it go, all of it will come to an end eventually, and even if you feel the pain striking your heart so visibly, in time you'll learn to forget and heal yourself, yes, forget it the right word for it. That's why songs are made to make us forget some of our terrible experiences and move on with our life. The same goes for Mayama, Yamada and Nomiya.

A new love will always bossom, after a new song.
