Chapter # 39

[ Yuu ]

After leaving Shino to grab a bite in cafe as the menu was so good today. Shino should have come too but that brat wants to taste pills instead. I will sneak something for him afterwards or if he doesn't eat then I will consider it a midnight snack, no harm no loss.

After eating and hanging out with my friends and seniors. I sneaked some food and went to my room. After reaching the door, I heard noises from inside, first i thought Shino was talking with someone on the phone but that thought disappeared the moment I heard someone else voice. I was planning on either leaving them to talk or enter either way but the talks inside made me wanna choose the former option. The guy was talking about Shino's father and Shino wasn't taking the talk well at all. I was about to go in but the moment I was about to turn the knob,

SLAM

I opened the door and saw that Shino had fainted, I rushed to him and firstly I should call ambulance right. Where is my god damn phone right now?.

" Hold it " Hearing the voice I looked up and yes entirely I forgot the mystery man was still here.

He came close and grabbed Shino and put him on the bed.

" He will wake up soon, don't worry too much about it and if there's still some kind of issue then take him to the hospital. He hasn't eaten or slept right. Take this opportunity to atleast get him to sleep."

Saying this he was about to leave but I need to ask something that has been on mind along time ago.

"Why did you have to mention his father to him?"

I asked something which wasn't what I actually wanted to ask at the moment

"You know you should be a bit truthful of what you want to ask. I know it wasn't you question that your mind has been dwelling on but since my junior asked I will be obliged to answer you.

I know Shino's father for a long time now, and I know what's happened between them. I have been following Shino close lately since he enrolled in the school and dorm but believe me kid my intention has never been to harm him, he needs to look at things a bit differently "

"So your basically his stalker" I asked.

"In a way, I have been stalking him for a while but I am a good stalker"

"When did stalker had types"

"Well I made one"

" You someone that Shino should stay away from"

" Neither will I stay away from him and neither will he. We will be bound to clash soon enough"

"Are you picking a fight?"

"Yes and no. He needs to learn something and I am triggering the speed to that process"

"Yes by triggering him to collapse like that. After finally been able to hang on" I was damn angry with this guy.

" Look kid I suggest you don't fall in love with him. He doesn't deserve it and truthfully you should not take that kind of journey either"

"Whether I like him as a lover or as a friend apparently has nothing to do with him and my hardships are none of your concern"

"Apparently everything surrounding him is my business"

"Leave please, your really of no help right now"

" As you wish. Look after him. Bye bye"

After he left, I went to Shino. Normally I would have think he had fallen asleep if I came after that guy but be collapsed but actually his words did make sense. I knew he wasn't sleeping so I guess I will talk to him after he wakes up. Looking at the food I bought for him, this really did become a midnight snack.

I sat beside Shino bed side and waited for him to wake up.

WAILING

I fell asleep at the floor across Shino and woke up with someone crying. I looked up and saw Shino shivering and crying at the same time.

"Shino, wake up. Wake up"

He wasn't waking up. I sat on the bed and pulled Shino closer to me and hugged him tightly and kept saying

"It will be okay Shino, everything alright. Calm down" I kept repeating and changing the order of the words and started petting him slowly and gently. Make his nightmare go away.

After 20 min I guess I wasn't sure I was just guessing the time. Shino had finally calmed down and was sleeping peacefully again. I was about to get up but saw that Shino was hugging me tightly and I couldn't really leave without him waking up. So at the spur of the moment I slept with him in the position he wanted me in.

I woke up again with sun light facing me. We didn't draw the curtains back, Shino hold on me had loosen and grabbed the opportunity to leave before Shino saw that little scene, he will be embarrassed to the core if he knew with this thought I laughed. I checked the time it was half an hour before school start. I was debating whether to leave Shino alone or go to school but honestly speaking what's there to debate, I will be with Shino.

" Yuu?"

and Shino was awake.

"Shino you okay now?"

"I think I am fine"

"You think after fainting like that"

"Faint?. Oh yes that guy. I need to talk with him again"

"You my friend are going to stay in bed today without going anywhere you understand me"

"Yuu?. What's wrong?"

"What's wrong, Shino you god damn COLLAPSED"

" So,"

"Shino you are gonna listen to me today without saying so or but"

"But..."

"Literally Shino just after I told you not to saying that"

" Okay I will keep quiet"

BUZZ BUZZ

That's a phone vibration, I checked my phone and it gave no notification so its definitely Shino. After Shino checked his phone. His face lost colour and he said

"Looks like I do need to go somewhere today after all"

"Where do you need to go Shino?

"Want to accompany me Yuu to a so called errand and an obligation"

"Okay I will go with you but before leaving can you eat something first, then we will go together okay"

" Sounds good"
