Chapter # 25

[ Yuu ]

I woke up earlier, Shino was still asleep and so was the stranger who was Izumi. Last night's event came flooding on my mind so apparently Shino was gay. Okay I already know he had a past and that past is something Izumi knows and from the looks of it Shino ran away from him or the place they previously lived. At least today was Sunday, I don't have to go to school with my mind jumbled up like this.

"I am sorry", a weak apology filled the room

I looked to find the source and it was Shino.

Of course it was him.

"Why are you apologising to me, you did not do anything wrong".

Despite saying it Shino didn't look convinced then I realized he isn't talking about the fact but..

" Shino let me make it clear, I don't mind about your preference at all, and neither I will spread rumours you can rest assure that this won't be spread atleast not by me"

By assuring him did he seem to gain some colour. I know he's pale but these days he's growing paler to paler. Is it because he doesn't eat?.

"Izumi, wake up" Shino said to him

Izumi woke up,

"Go home already"

"No, you are coming with me" Izumi replied

"Do you want to continue the fight from yesterday, I told you before act like a friend now. Don't push me anymore"

Both of them looked at each other and finally decided to leave. He came infront me and said

"I will give you back the clothes when I have washed them"

Without me replying he left

Peace fell in the room.

Then I remembered yesterday what I had actually planned on doing with Shino.

"Shino"

He turned to look at me.

"Can you I ask you something, If you are comfortable in replying"

Shino nodded.

"Your lack of taste when did it happen?. Was it from the start or it started from when you grew older "

He looked bewildered

"It started in middle school, I could taste stuff before"

"Then did you try fixing it as it trying to make your sense come back again"

" No, I never bothered or tried"

"I want to help you restore your senses back"

Shino looked shocked

"Yuu don't be crazy, it's not something that will come back if we try it. Plus I already got used to the pills so I don't have any issues"

"No let me try. We can start by tasting the foods you loved in the past maybe you would be able to get some taste back. I planned on taking you out yesterday but that wasn't possible. So can we go today. You don't want to be stuffed in the room right"

No reply. Shino just started at me.

"Shino, let's go we will have fun. Please"

"Fine."

I was overjoyed he's going to try.

" Then let's change and go out"

After changing, we were going out when the students who were gone during the weekend were coming back. We both greeted them and were going when a student stopped us.

He was Inoue Ryo a second year student,

"Senior, is something the matter" I asked.

He asked, " Where are you both going and what are your names"

"We are both freshman I am Yuu kurome and he's Shino Tatsuya. We were going out to eat"

"You guys wait a second" by telling us this he rushed towards the seniors. They discussed something and he came back.

"Can you wait for like 10 minutes, We all want to go out together to eat, we will treat the freshman we were late for a week already."

The other seniors had already gone to tell freshman the news and others went to change.

Ryo-San was still looking at us, I could not say no so I nodded. He was excited and then went back to him room.

When the all the students mostly had gone to change I looked towards and said

"Shino, I am sorry but I couldn't refuse his offer."

"Its okay in that kind of situation you could not refuse"

"You are not angry right"

"Yuu , for the last time I am not angry stop worrying about these kind of things"

As usual I can't read Shino expression at all. I wonder right now what's going on his mind.

Exactly after 10 to 15 min the seniors and the freshman came out and we all together went to have a kind of dorm family dinner.
