No Love Zone - 26

"How?"

Juza, who had been waiting for Azami in front of the gate of one of the universities in Yokohama, immediately asked a question when he saw Azami walking towards him.

"They said I could apply for a scholarship."

Juza furrowed her brows in surprise. "You want to apply for the scholarship path?"

Definitely Azami nodded his head. "Sure. That will reduce the costs I will incur. Because I also have to pay for Yuri's education fees and what I owe you."

Juza's hand reached out to ruffle Azami's hair. Making Azami look at him disapprovingly.

"You're a good brother. Your parents must be proud to have a son like you." Said Juza who was now gently patting the top of Azami's head.

"You are also a good person Juza-san. Your parents must also be proud to have a child like you." Azami's reply made Juza stop gently patting the top of his head.

"Not really." Juza muttered as he took his hand away from the top of Azami's head.

Azami, who felt Juza's mood change, furrowed his brows in surprise. He wanted to ask, but he didn't. He thought it was Juza's privacy, so he didn't want to disturb him.

"Hmmm, Juza-san. Is there a place you want to visit right now?" Azami asked trying to normalize the atmosphere between him and Juza.

Juza cleared his throat for a moment. "I don't think so. Do you want to visit somewhere first before going home?"

"It's not like that. Today you accompanied me to find the University. So maybe, you want to visit somewhere too? I will accompany you, as a token of my gratitude."

One of Juza's eyebrows shot up. "Hmm, so you want to thank me. I think there's a place I want to visit right now."

Azami had a small smile on his face. "Ah, fine then. I'll accompany you Juza-san."

Juza nodded his head slowly, then walked into the car. Likewise with Azami who is now following to enter the car. The two of them prepared to go to the place that Juza wanted to visit.

Azami frowned in surprise when he and Juza were now in front of an apartment building.

"This is the apartment I used to live in when I was a student."

Azami nodded his head slowly hearing Juza's words who seemed to know what he was thinking right now.

Now Azami and Juza stepped their feet into the apartment building. Juza took Azami to enter one of the elevators that they would use to reach the floor where his apartment unit was located.

"I want to pick up some things I forgot to take before returning to my parents' house." Juza said breaking the silence between him and Azami in the elevator.

"I see." Azami replied modestly and only Juza responded with a sigh.

Arriving at the elevator on the floor where Juza's apartment unit is located, Juza grabbed Azami's fingers and led the young man out of the elevator to walk to his apartment unit.

Azami, whose fingers were gripped by Juza, flinched slightly. But he tried to return to normalize his feelings so as not to look so surprised by Juza.

Juza continues to hold Azami's fingers, until now the two of them are already in his apartment unit.

Azami, who was already in Juza's apartment unit, was amazed at the interior design and also the size of the Juza apartment unit, which looks so spacious compared to the apartment unit he lived in when he was a student and part-time employee of an interior design company.

"As long as I pack my things, you can browse my apartment unit or choose to watch television." Juza said in response to a nod of his head by Azami.

"Also, if you're feeling thirsty. It looks like there's a few bottles of mineral water in the fridge that Goshi always brings when he visits here."

Again, Azami nodded his head in response to Juza's words. Before the man walked away left himself in the living room.

Azami, who was left alone, chose to turn on the television and sat on the sofa. He kept pressing the television remote to find programs that he found entertaining, because right now he was feeling a little tired and sleepy after almost a day walking around visiting several universities with Juza.

"Ah, I'm really sleepy." Azami muttered as he hugged one of the sofa cushions with his eyes already drooping.

"I guess sleeping for a while is fine. Juza-san will definitely wake me up." Azami muttered again who was now lying on the sofa.

The cool breeze from the air conditioner made Azami more comfortable and drifted off to dreamland.

Meanwhile Juza, who was still in his room to pack some of his belongings, now turned his head towards the study table to see a photo figure that was there. Then walked over to his study table while carrying a cardboard box containing several items that he would take home.

The photo figure contains a photo of a girl who is smiling brightly at the camera and a boy who has a flat expression at the camera.

"Mimi-chan." Juza muttered as he gently stroked the photo of the girl.

"Maybe now he has a family and is living a happy life. Even his grandfather never talks about him every time he meets me."

Juza let out a long sigh and now he put the photo figure back on the study table.

Juza glanced at his watch which now showed five o'clock in the afternoon.

"It's better if Azami-kun and I choose to have dinner here, before we head back home." Juza muttered, who was now back carrying his cardboard box, then walked towards the door of his room.

"Azami-kun."

Juza lowered his voice when he found Azami sleeping on the sofa.

A small smile appeared on Juza's face who was now slowly walking towards Azami, then placed the cardboard box on the table.

Now Juza chooses to sit on the carpet and align his face with Azami's face who looks so calm when he sleeps.

Juza slowly brought his face closer to Azami's. But just as his lips were about to touch Azami's, Juza pulled his face away.

"It would be very rude if I kissed you while you were sleeping." Juza muttered as he stretched out one hand to gently stroke Azami's hair.

"Good night, I'll wake you up after I finish making the dinner menu." Juza muttered again, this time bringing his face closer to Azami's forehead to give a kiss there.

After kissing Azami's forehead, Juza walked back into his room to get a blanket to cover Azami's body. Then walked to the kitchen to cook dinner menu.
