Suzuki Kazuya’s POV
It has been 2 years after I regained my memories and learned the truth of what actually happened to Yuki on that unfortunate day. I keep continuing my life while staying strong just like what Yuki asked me to be. I graduated from the university and immediately after that, I found a job in an advertisement company and with that, I started having a stable life on my own.
I also took back the responsibility from Hisashi-san of taking care of Naoya and apologized to him after having releasing all my frustrations and anger towards him that caused us to have an intense fist fight. The relationship between us becomes better after that and we begin to understand each other’s way of thinking towards our complicated situation.
There are times when I feel such extreme sadness and longingness for Yuki, especially when the seasons change. My heart still feels the pain whenever I pass by to the empty lot where Yuki’s clinic used to be. It was frustrating knowing that I can still do something that time and even until now, I still regret everything. If only I didn’t lose my memory back then, if only I just did my best to remember him on time, then maybe I won’t be suffering like this for two long years all alone while taking care of the cat which only reminds me of him.
“Suzuki-san, do you mind if you come with me right now to scout for a good location for our new project?” Takane-san, a co-worker of mine who is three years older than me asked while I am doing some paper works on my desk.
“Sure, I can but do you think the chief will allow me to go out without finishing my paper works?”
“Oh, don’t worry about that, I already asked him to let you go with me. Just let Koutaro-san finish it up for you.?”
“Really?”
“Yes, so come on, let’s go. And don’t forget to bring your camera.”
“Okay, okay don’t rush.”
Takane-san started driving while I sit beside him as I read through the documents about the project that we are working.
“So Takane-san, the commercial is a cherry flavored candy, right? Is there any particular request from the client?” I asked him after reading the specification of the product.
“The client only asked us to make something appealing to the eyes of the young viewers, something nature related would be nice so I decided to scout a location instead of doing it inside the studio while relying on CGI.”
“I see. It is already spring season so I think it is really perfect for the product. Why don’t we go to a park where the cherry blossoms are in full bloom?”
“That’s a good idea, but do you know any park here?”
“Yes, I know one nearby. Let me guide the way.”
He continues driving until we reached the park where Yuki always likes to go. Somehow, I started regretting my decision of suggesting this location because I never thought that it will only hurt me.
The memory of Hisashi telling me truth on that day suddenly resurface on my mind.
….
“But… but please tell me Hisashi-san, please stop keeping secrets and answer me truthfully this time. I am prepared to hear everything no matter how painful it is so please tell me, tell me what happened to Naoyuki during the earthquake one year ago?” I cried as look into Hisashi’s eyes while waiting for his answers.
“Kazuya, the truth is… Naoyuki is…”
“What?! Just tell me everything!”
“He is in comatose state since the accident happened. The doctors told us that there is only a small chance for him to wake up but…but we are still hoping and praying for him to open his eyes one day.”
“No, how… how can that even happen? That’s too cruel.”
“Kazuya please you have to calm down. I already know that this will be your reaction so I did my best to hide it from you. Nao’s parents also choose to keep it as a secret so I have no choice. Kazuya please, stop crying, he is still alive.”
“But what if he didn’t wake up anymore? What if he just dies one day without letting me see him? Hisashi please let me see him now.”
“No, you can’t.”
“But why?!”
“Nao is… Naoyuki and Koharu were already transferred to an overseas hospital in Canada.”
“What? How? When did that happened?”
“Nine months ago. Nao’s family decided it right after the earthquake and so his dad asked me to take care of Nao’s properties right after they found out what happened to Nao on that day and it took them three months before moving overseas to arrange all necessary documents and waited for Koharu and Naoyuki’s condition to become a little stable.”
“So, you are telling me that Yuki has been away for so long and that was the reason why our paths didn’t even meet after so long? Yuki is far away while still battling for his life all alone in a foreign country while I was living that damn one whole year without even knowing that he exists? That’s too cruel!”
“Kazuya please stop crying already. Yuki is still in coma right now but I strongly believe that he will wake up one day so please, can you also try to believe and continue living your life normally? Can you do it? Can you move forward and be a better person for him once he open his eyes again?”
“Yes… I promise. I will be the person that will make him proud once he goes back.”
…
“Suzuki-san are you alright? You suddenly started spacing out while looking up to the sky.”
“Ahh, I’m sorry. I am just remembering something that happened here a long time ago.”
“What is it? Did you confess your love someone here when you are young? Come on spill it to your senpai.”
“No, it’s not something like that. By the way, can I take some short video clips around here now? I think the weather is really nice to film the cherry blossoms today.”
“Yeah, you are right. Can you also make a video footage of the park so that we can present it to the client later? I will just make a call to our chief to let him know.”
“Okay.” He pulls out his phone from his pocket but he walks back to me.
“Suzuki-san, I think my phone is out of battery, can I borrow your phone?”
“Sure.” I reach out for my phone inside my pocket but then I realized that I didn’t even bring my phone. “I am sorry but I think I left my phone in the office.”
“I see. I will just go back to the car to charge my phone shortly, just come back when you are done.”
“Okay.”
He walks back to the car and I started taking shots of the surroundings of the park. I was too immersed in what I am doing and I didn’t even notice that I already walk to the other side of the park.
I finished filming the location and was about to go back to the car when I suddenly hear a group of high school girls on their way home while talking loudly as they pass by.
“Hey, have you heard about that handsome guy who just came back from America?”
“No, I think he is from Australia, no I mean Canada, right?
“Yes! That right it’s Canada not America, how can you even forget the country.”
“So, what’s up with that guy you are talking about? Is he a foreigner? Can he speak our language?”
“He is not a foreigner; he was a doctor here back then.”
“Really? How come I didn’t know about that?”
“I know him, he was my little brother’s pediatrician back then.”
“Really? Let me see a photo!”
I almost drop my camera when I heard what they are talking about. I immediately run out of the park at full speed without even knowing where to go. My mind is full of emotions as I let my heart takes over me and follow where my feet wanted me to go.
Run.
Keep running.
Just run.
As I keep continue to run to somewhere that I don’t even know where, a sudden downpour happened. I instinctively search for a place to take cover my feet unexpectedly brought me in front of the convenience store where I first get to meet Yuki back then.
The rain during spring season is definitely cold, I wonder if it is because it is made of the melted snow during winter. I wonder if there will be a miraculous coincidence just like what happened back then where Yuki will suddenly pop out of nowhere while holding a jet-black umbrella looking like a handsome death reaper. I let out a soft chuckle as I try forget that silly thoughts while I watch the rain continue pouring down.
*whoosh*
A cold breeze of air blows causing some of the wet petals of the cherry blossoms nearby be swept towards my direction. I use my left hand to cover my face and deflect the wave of petals being blown away but as I waited for it hit me, I didn’t even feel anything hitting me; it was as if the wind changes its directions or is it possibly blocked by something.
As I lowly look up to see, what I saw was the bright pink cherry blossoms petals looking through the transparent umbrella of a stranger who is standing beside me. As the gentle cold wind blows into my face again, my head cleared up and saw the familiar figure of the man I was yearning for the past three years.
“Yuki.” That was the only word that I was able to say but it was fairly enough to make his head turn and let our gazes meet each other.
“Kazuya.” He said with his gentle voice.
If only you could know how much did I yearn to hear your voice to call out my name again. For the first time since I was born, this is the only time that I feel so grateful for the rain; This is the sweetest rainfall that I ever know my whole life.
