Arata watched his brother work while he made a quick dinner. "So innocent..." He whispered to himself.
The boy looked up, smiling. "What? Think I'm not working?"
"Yeah. Makin sure you don't goof off. You have exams right?"
"Yes." -
"Ma, I'm home!" Devin called as he closed the front door. He dropped his bag by the door and headed up the stairs and into his room, forcing the tears not to come. If I had just jumped in front of that guy... She would still be here...
-
"Arata? Can I have a friend over to study tomorrow?" Nikki asked with his big puppy eyes.
He smiled. "I don't see why not. I'll be home around the same time okay?"
"Kay." -
"Agh..." he leaned back and covered his face with his hands. This was all eating away at him.
-
"I just feel like he could use someone to talk with, too..."
"Who?"
"Devin. Really smart and nice. His girlfriend was killed..."
"Oh? That's awful...I'll be sure to grieve with you two tomorrow."
"You're so kind, nīsan." -
"Dinner's on the table!" his mother called up. "Be down in a minute..." Devin replied, sitting up and wiping the tears from his face. He shook his head, "I shouldn't be alive..." he whispered to himself, making his way down the stairs and into the kitchen.
-
He finished up and ate with Arata. "Thank you."
"Your welcome." -
Devin pushed the food around his plate with his fork. "I'm not... hungry," he said quietly, getting up and slipping out the front door. He needed some air.
-
"I should call. Make sure he wants to and can come." Nikki finished and went to his room.
Arata smirked. "A poor boy lost his girl? I'll comfort him." -
Devin's cell phone blasted out his and Jess's favorite song. It brought tears to his eyes, but he had no desire to change it. He took a breath and answered it. "Hell?" he said into the phone, obviously exasperated and saddened.
-
"Awww...You sound sad..." Nikki sympathized on the other end. "You wanna come over for a bit tomorrow?"
-
"Sure. Anything to get away from my mom. She's suffocating me with all this 'love' and what-not," he sighed and blinked a few times, holding back the tears. Ever since Jess died, he'd been a wreck.
-
"Hehe...Anytime you wanna come over, just ask. My brother doesn't care."
-
"Well... I'm kind of just out here right now... Could I hang out with you for a bit? To get my mind off of things..."
-
"Sure. You can. Bring any work if you haven't finished, I can help you with it."
