Who are you?

"Sigh, the city view is breathtaking. Kenzo, I wish we could see it together," thought Hiroshi, staring into the bright spectacular tall buildings, droplets of tears running down his milky rosy cheek.

"Wait for me, Kenzo. I am coming to you now." Hiroshi, with a relief smile, steps off the building.

"Ugh, I hate doing this job." The mysterious man breathes out in frustration. He disappears from the hiding and appears next to Hiroshi.

"Your deceased lover Kenzo is going to be extremely sad, Hiroshi," yells the enigmatic man. Hiroshi stops on the track, raises his head, turns his head, and sees a tall man.

"I..I-Is that you, Kenzo?" Hiroshi, with puffed red eyes, can't clearly distinguish the person. Thinking the cryptic man is Kenzo, Hiroshi runs towards him, locks Hiroshi's lips on the man's lips, and wraps his hands around the man's shoulder. Shocked by the sudden movement of Hiroshi, the man froze on the spot. Intensely kissing, Hiroshi notices the taste of sweet coffee taste from the lips.

Wait. Coffee taste? Kenzo doesn't usually eat coffee sweets, especially during the nighttime. Hiroshi pushes the man away.

"Y-You are not, Kenzo... Who are you? How do you know Kenzo? A-And how do you know me?" Hiroshi, placing his backhand on his lips, coming back to his senses, rubs his eyes for him to see clearly, and rubs his lips continuously in the horror of kissing another man rather than Kenzo. Hiroshi sees a tall cryptic man standing in front of him. His dark brunette hair flows silkily along with the wind, cold lonely deep ocean blue eyes, and rosy red lips.

"Not bad. You are a skilled kisser. How many times have you kissed Kenzo to be this skilled? Kenzo would have surely enjoyed it," winks the man, "Well, finally, nice to meet you, Hiroshi. I am the king of doom, Naoki Kimura."

"King of doom? What bullshit are you talking about you being king of doom? How am I supposed to believe that? And how do you know Kenzo?" Hiroshi, staying with caution, questions.

"I will show you. Hold my hand. I will bring you somewhere when Kenzo was alive; however, Kenzo will not be able to see you since we will be invisible," warns Naoki.

"Why should I trust you?" refusing to hold Naoki's hand, Hiroshi turns around and walk towards the exit to leave.

"I thought you said you want to know how Kenzo and I met. You don't have to trust me. I am fine with it," Naoki shrugs his shoulder.

Hiroshi's brain, running through every pros and cons, decides to trust in Naoki.

"I have nothing to lose anyway. At least I might have a chance to get a glimpse of Kenzo," thought Hiroshi. Placing his hand on Naoki's, Hiroshi gives off a glare of 'Don't you dare do anything suspicious.'

"Pfft.." Naoki, finding Hiroshi's glare cute, laughs out loud. Hiroshi ignores Naoki's laugh as he doesn't see the need to ask the question.

"The transportation would need a kiss for the spell," said Naoki with a straight face.

"Like I am going to believe it. Then I am leaving." Retreating his hand from Naoki, Hiroshi turns to leave.

"I am just kidding. Don't take it very seriously." Naoki reaches his hand towards Hiroshi's. Hiroshi stops in his track and says, "If you say so."

Hiroshi grabs Naoki's hand again and patiently waits for Naoki to cast the spell.

"No matter what happens, don't move. If you do, I might not be able to teleport you and me," said Naoki; he then suddenly pulls Hiroshi towards his embrace and casts a transportation spell.

Wait. Am I being taken advantage of by Naoki? Hiroshi frowns.

The golden light falling from the sky travels around Naoki and Hiroshi. The light beams brighter and brighter as Naoki keeps casting the spell. No sooner they arrived at the spot before Kenzo and Naoki meet.

A heavy sense of antiseptic comes filling Hiroshi's and Naoki's lungs after the teleportation.

"Are we at a hospital? I think, so the blue-uniform nurses, white coat doctors, and white cloth with the black dotted gown patients proves that I am at a hospital," ponders Hiroshi as he observes his surroundings.

"I am giving you a bonus. The time where Kenzo and I met will happen later, but this is before that happen. So that you will have more time to see Kenzo's face," folding his hand, Naoki said.

"So, I can move around?"

"Well, sort of, but don't go very far away since I need to use my energy to stabilize the spell. I also don't want to consume my energy on irrelevant things. So, do you believe me that I am the king of doom now?"

"A little," smirks Hiroshi.

Not long after, Kenzo, with a heavy heart, steps into the hospital, goes to the reception and waits for his name to be called. Hiroshi feels someone has pierced his soul with a long sharp blade.

"Patient Kenzo Shimada, please go into the room now," announces a nurse. Kenzo's legs become noodles. His heart produces a rhythmic beat audibly enough for his ghost-quiet surrounding.

"Hello, doctor." Kenzo nervously walks towards the doctor.

"How are you doing, Kenzo?"

"Doing fine... Umm, so doctor, how are my results?" Kenzo begins to sweats beads from his hands.

"*sigh* Kenzo... I am sorry to say this, but the results are egregious. The infected cells are spreading faster than I thought," shaking his head, the doctor downheartedly explains the conditions, "I have never seen this type of ailment turns into a major illness."

"Oh, I see... Doctor, how many months will I still be able to live?" Kenzo's lung squeezes out every ounce of oxygens from his system. His brain, holding onto every last breath of oxygen in the body. Kenzo begins to have a hard time breathing; suddenly, a man with a brunette gorgeous brown eyes with an owl-like glass, his lips lifting into a crescent-like smile, flashes before Kenzo's eyes from his memories than can his breathing stabilizes.

"I believe about six more months. I am not sure since it is unpredictable," consoles the doctor.

"I see... Thank you, doctor." Kenzo smiles cheerfully and stands up to leave. Hiroshi's heart shatters into unfixable pieces as Hiroshi watches Kenzo's sparkling smile. Hiroshi, fully knowing the dazzling smile is a cover-up for the pain Kenzo feels inside as Kenzo knows that Kenzo will not live long. Hiroshi's leg becomes noodles to the point where he was about to fall on the ground. Naoki buttresses Hiroshi by lifting Hiroshi from his waist so that Hiroshi would still see Kenzo.
