<< Chapter 4
Looking up from his seat, he pulled out his wallet and gazed at the picture he had kept properly with care. In the picture, was 3 young boys in their 17s. A tall and lanky boy had his strong arms wrapped around a shorter boy who had a blush decorated on his features, but smiling nevertheless. Another boy had a smile that displayed his pearly white teeth, and pointed to the hugging pair.
His thumb brushed over the picture where the shorter boy's face was. "Yama-chan, do you know that Yuto misses you a lot? He's finally coming back to work. Do you know that he had locked himself up? You would probably know, since he told me he saw you when he was in coma. Yama-chan, you're beside Yuto right?" The guy talked softly to the cold autumn night.
He is Okamoto Keito, another famous idol, a good friend of Nakajima Yuto and Yamada Ryosuke. He knew of their relationship, and he was always there when they went out on dates, so there wouldn't be rumors about the pair. But he wasn't there the last time the pair had their date.
Keito was out of town on a drama filming, and he couldn't be there to make it seem like a boys' day out together. Honestly, he felt guilty. Really guilty.
"Keito!" A tall figure waved, and ran towards him. Yuto wasn't smiling his usual smile, but it was better than seeing a tall walking zombie of an idol. The cartoon image of a zombie Yuto made him laugh a little, and he walked towards Yuto and gave him a high-five.
Suddenly, Keito felt a surge of dizziness, and his world started to spin. Images flashed through before his eyes, and he collapsed on to the ground, holding onto his head in pain.
Yuto started to panic, "SOMEONE! CALL THE AMBULANCE!"
When Keito opened his eyes, he was engulfed by the bright lights of the hospital ward. Looking around, he saw that his father was at his side, holding his hand. His manager was at the edge of the bed talking to Yuto and Yuto's manager was talking on the phone, probably to the company.
"Keito, are you okay?" his father's eyes had evident traces of worry, and Keito swore he saw faint dried tear tracks on his father's face. Too tired to find his voice, Keito just nodded and smiled. A simple gesture to comfort his father.
Both Yuto and his manager soon went out of the ward, and his father went to work, so only Yuto and him was left in the room.
"Yuto, I've just saw the weirdest things." Keito croaked, and went into a cough fit. Yuto immediately handed him a cup of water, and patiently waited for Keito to finish it before talking.
"I've died before, in another alternate world. I know you wouldn't believe it, but listen to me first." Yuto's eyes were wide open, but nevertheless nodded, urging his friend to continue.
"I was embracing a younger boy, probably 15. He's like a hamster, and was absolutely mature for his age. We spent so many time together, smiling and joking. I guess we're a couple, and although we're not the sweetest, we were happy. I can feel the contentment even now. I could still feel his warmth and remember the smell of his hair." A small smile graced Keito's features, like he was speaking of a person he had known for a long time and loved. But Yuto knew better. Keito haven't gotten into a relationship, yet.
"But you know what is the weirdest thing? I saw Yama-chan. 3 of us were friends, and all of us were just leading a normal student life. He was the same Yama-chan. I can just feel it. There's another world out there, but it's separated from our's. The places there are exactly the same, like mirror images, printed to perfection. The people are probably the same too, because Yama-chan was there." Keito mumbled, and saw Yuto's eyes go wide open.
Fiddling with his pocket, Keito pulled out a note and passed it to Yuto.
I'm Morimoto Ryutaro.
By any chance, are you Okamoto Keito?
"What's with this note?" Yuto questioned, and Keito smiled. He explained that before this encounter, he was once in a forest, and was met with a never ending wall that was really tall. He received the note from the other side.
Looking at the note, Keito sighed. When he was asked why was he sighing, his reply was this.
"The boy I was dating in my vision, was called Morimoto Ryutaro. And the Yama-chan I saw isn't just a look alike. He name IS Yamada Ryosuke."
