Rui did not expect that Yuan Lu would be so happy to meet Yukihira. Everything was clear in his sight when the two of them had just arrived at the restaurant but Yuan Lu immediately looked for Yukihira and invited her to chat at one of the tables that was a bit away from the crowd.
Rui could only flinch at the sight of her cousin's sister who did not stop talking. But what astonished him was the way Yukihira responded to Yuan Lu's story which he found very boring. The man in front of him seemed to be enjoying every word that came out of Yuan Lu's mouth.
Rui nodded, was it really what she saw? Is Yukihira really Yuan Lu's friend?
However, Rui's mind instantly froze upon hearing Yuan Lu ask Yukihira to make lunch and accompany him to the hospital to deliver food for Xue He, but Rui immediately refused.
"Why did you reject it so quickly?" ask Yuan Lu.
"My food won't match him. Besides, my cookbook only applies to you, not anyone else." Yukihira crossed her arms and leaned against her body.
Hearing Yukihira's reply earlier made Yuan Lu cluck in annoyance. Normally Yukihira would grant all her wishes, but for this one she was completely rejected. Despite putting on a face, his request was rejected.
"Alright, I'll just buy outside" Yuan Lu muttered but still heard by Yukihra and Rui.
Yukihira shrugged his shoulders, "So much better. I can save energy and not have to dirty my hands."
The conversation of Yukihira and Yuan Lu made a line of smiles on Rui's face. It turned out that since then he enjoyed the conversation even though he was not spoken to at all.
"So when did you go to Japan?" ask Yukihira.
"Last of the week."
"We have just met, but have separated. How unlucky I am." Yukihira put on a sagging face as if not willing to let go of Yuan Lu.
However, Yukihira's attitude just now instead made Yuan Lu laugh. He said, "What if we go out?"
Yukihira's face was immediately cheerful at that very instant. She did not expect Yuan Lu to have the initiative first to ask her out.
"It should be my dialogue, right?" taste Yukihira.
They both laughed and forgot the presence of Rui who had only been able to smile at the excitement of two humans before him.
Not only that, they also went to another restaurant without saying goodbye to Rui. Back then Rui could only regret his wish of going to accompany Yuan Lu to meet Yukihira. If he had known it would end up like a mosquito repellent, he wouldn't have come.
...***...
Yukihira parked his motorbike and accompanied Yuan Lu into the hospital. Occasionally Yukihira glanced at Yuan Lu who looked very happy to bring the food he bought for Xue He. He felt envious of the man who could find Yuan Lu's insensitive heart with love.
"Usually Brother Xue He always made me eat. What else if Kak Rui and Kak Zhu are not home. He really knew very well when I was starving" Yuan Lu said.
"So, is he your girlfriend or your chef?" taste Yukihira.
Yuan Lu clucked but returned to tell him about Xue He who was so loved. Yukihira put both her hands behind her head. He walked over while continuing to listen to Yuan Lu who was speaking with a timid face.
"You love him too much. I'm afraid it'll hurt you" murmured Yukihira.
"Nothing."
The two of them continued walking towards Xue He's room. At that time Yukihira did not realize that Yuan Lu's voice was getting quieter and disappeared. Apparently Yuan Lu stopped his steps in front of one of the outpatient room doors.
Yuan Lu's face looked expressionless at all. He also placed the rice box in front of the door and took a few steps back then ran away from the place.
Yukihira turned around when she heard the sound of running steps. He was astonished to see Yuan Lu running towards the exit. He also saw the rice box Yuan Lu was carrying in front of the door of one of the nursing rooms he had just passed through.
He walked up to the door intending to take his rice box, he also had a glance at the door glass. However, at that time his heart was like doused in oil and thrown sparks.
In the room, Yukihira saw Xue He kissing the woman in the same uniform as Xue He. His two hands clenched even unconsciously he kicked the door of the room and left just like that making the person inside there shocked.
"Fuck!" yukihira growled as he chased after Yuan Lu who was already not within his sight range. He kept running all the way to the place where his bike was.
His eyes dripped all over the place looking for Yuan Lu's whereabouts but nil. The girl was completely lost in her reach. She's pissed. His feet kicked the original pebble until it hit the lamp post.
"L-Yuan! Where are you?" yukihira.
"I'm here."
Yukihira instantly turned her body when she heard Yuan Lu's voice. His jaw suddenly hardened, the face of the woman in front of him looked ordinary even smiling as if nothing had happened.
"Ah, I'm sorry. My stomach ached suddenly, so I went out." Yuan Lu walked ahead of Yukihira towards the seat under the tree.
"Why are you just standing, sit down." Yuan Lu patted the empty side next to him.
Yukihira only sighed and obeyed Yuan Lu's words. He sat right beside Yuan Lu without making any sound.
They both flinch. There were only the sounds of a few people chatting and the breeze of the afternoon breeze. A heavy sigh was heard by Yuan Lu several times.
He said, "Yukihira, how can humans forget memories?"
Yukihira leaned back and closed both eyes, "Hit the iron pipe."
Yuan Lu shuddered in horror at Yukihira's reply. It seems not only memories are lost, but lives can be lost.
"Sometimes I would love to hit your head with bamboo" Yuan Lu said.
Yukihira laughed, she gave her hand and said, "Just hit. Hit until you're satisfied."
Yuan Lu flinched. He grabbed Yukihira's hand and bit her hard until the owner shouted, but a moment later her face instantly turned flat as her hands were wet. Not because of the saliva, but Yuan Lu was crying.
