Haunted Ex
Warm Hugs

Tokyo, ten in the morning surrounding time…

Shena and Ryuuto were taking a walk in the tourist attractions. Now both of them are sitting on iron chairs near an artificial lake. While resting under a shady tree, the two talked about their respective relationships. However, Ryuuto still covered his closeness with Hana. Shena…

“I'm engaged to Nara, Ryuuto,” said Shena who suddenly made Ryuuto sliced.

“Bet engaged? But why didn't you invite me?” Ryuuto covered up his pain.

“We don't make a big party, Ryuuto. Just just that.” Shena smiled, feeling ashamed of herself.

Ryuuto smiled as well. As much as possible, he showed the happiness of hearing this news.

“Congratulations yes, Shena. Finally he tied you up with certainty.” Ryuuto smiled fakely in front of Shena.

Shena turned her head towards Ryuuto who was sitting on his right side, their distance slightly apart. But even so, Shena could feel if Ryuuto was actually sad. He then drew closer to Ryuuto. When Ryuuto is shocked, he wakes up to avoid Shena.

Ryuto ….

The instant Shena realized something, if Ryuuto did not want to touch her. She bites her own lips, feeling guilty for not being able to reciprocate Ryuuto's feelings.

I don't know why I feel my time is getting closer. What is this feeling? I haven't been able to repay everyone's kindness to me.

Shena felt that the time would not be long.

Dear God, let me repay Ryuuto's kindness. All this time he's been good to me. I don't want to leave with regrets.

Ryuuto moves away from Shena because he does not want to interfere with Shena's relationship status with Nara. Although actually he really wants to be close to the girl he has been chasing one year ago. But in fact, he couldn't reach it.

Ryuuto stood in front of Shena, looking back at the swan in the lake. Both hands were put in his pants pocket. He wanted to breathe fresh air after the fatigue of work that could not be delayed. But then something surprised him.

Melia ….

Ryuuto was surprised as Shena hugged him from behind. The girl placed both hands on her stomach. Shena also spread her head on Ryuuto's back. At once Ryuuto fell silent, feeling the warmth he had dreamed of. The girl he was chasing was now hugging him.

“I'm sorry, Ryuuto ..” Shena spoke. “I don't know what to do right now. But, I thank you for all your kindness. Thank you for taking care of the roses. Thank you for saving me, taking me to the hospital. If there is no you, maybe now I am gone.” Shena said it sincerely.

“Shena ..”

“I know all this time you've been fighting. But .. I'm sorry I couldn't return your feelings. Hopefully in another life we can meet,” Shena said again.

Ryuuto immediately released Shena's embrace, he turned to face the girl. “Shena, please don't say that.” Ryuuto finally held onto both of Shena's arms while looking at her tightly.

“Ryuuto .. I feel my time will not be long. I don't want to leave a burden when I leave. Relieve me, yeah. Be happy with the girl you love.” Shena smiled.

Ryuuto's heart stopped.

“Shena, you know for yourself that I only like you. It is not easy to forget all the memories that have been created. And now you say as if you want to go far away. Shena, what do I have to do to hold you back?” Ryuuto's eyes glazed over, holding back his tears.

Shena did not reply, she instead hugged Ryuuto. Instantly, Ryuuto's heart stopped. He did not understand why his heart could feel pain at this moment. His hand slowly returned Shena's embrace. Both enjoy the breeze of the blowing lake, letting nature unite feelings in the heart.
