Chapter Text
“I didnt think you’d ever come again.”
Hikaru says, surprised to see Yoshiki back in that Hospital room facing him once again. It was relieving though, I mean, Yoshiki cared about him. He DIDN’T forget.
“W-Well… I promised you some Ice Cream.”
Yoshiki says as he holds up the Ice Cream Cone in his hand, some of it already melting right against his fingers

“Yeah.”
“How’s school?”

Hikaru says, trying his best to sound unbothered, like it’s just a tiny little thing he asked for.

Hikaru, you’ve given me so many things… Isn’t there something I can give you..?
He thought, and thought again, when suddenly…
