Blue to Dark
"Why do I have to go?" An irritated blond behind the seat of the car while crossing his arms and puffing his cheeks in a childish manner.
"Because you need a check-up to see if you're getting better, Syo-chan." Another blond who was very identical to the latter said as he looked at his twin brother with a very knowing face. He was sitting right beside him.
"I hate the hospital, Kaoru." Syo stated in a matter-in-fact tone as he grumbled.
"You know it's for your own good, Syo-chan," Kaoru said as a sigh escaped his lips.
"Fine, fine." He replied, clearly ignoring the nickname that his brother gave him.
Syo gave up with a sigh. He really hated going to the hospital every now and then. The scent of the medicines and alcohol. The white clothes, halls, walls, and everything. Syo knew this was really for his own good but he wished his condition would get better so he could live up to his dream. His dream was to become an idol and sing for people to make them happy. He really loved music with all his heart. A small smile graced upon his lips as he started humming a tune while staring outside the window of the car.
"This is boring . . ." He thought to himself. "I hope this trip will end soon."
-------------------
Syo was in the verge of exploding.
Why?
He was sitting on the bench of the waiting room with his parents gone since they went to fill some papers. Kaoru was in a hurry to get to the nearest restroom. Now, every person that passed by called him with the word that he absolutely hates.
Cute.
The 9 year old boy couldn't handle it anymore so he ran outside to get away from them. He stopped his tracks in a garden to catch his breath. Due to his heart condition, he doesn't want to overexert himself. He was a weak child, after all.
"I'm finally out of that place. . ." He muttered under his breath as he wiped the remaining sweat from his forehead. Syo looked around to see where he ran to because he was too busy getting away in the hospital he really despised. He adjusted his white fedora as he thought on how he can go back to the waiting room.
Sighing out of frustration, he started walking to find a way back or maybe ask someone along the way if he ever sees one.
-------------
"That's it... I'M OFFICIALLY LOST!" Syo ran his fingers through his blond locks out of frustration. What was he gonna do now?
"I bet Kaoru is panicking now..." Syo thought "Mom and Dad might be calling for the police by now."
He sighed as he imagined them one by one doing it right this second.
"Maybe I should wait here and-"
La la lala~
"Eh?" Syo looked around to see if anyone was there. Blinking, the blond followed the source of the voice into an entrance that led to a flower bed. He continued to follow the wonderful voice until he reached a fountain. At the edge of the fountain, a girl was sitting on the marble edges. She was around his age according to Syo's observation.
I will wait for you~
Syo closed his eyes as he imagined himself drifting with the clouds in the blue skies.
"Her voice..." He thought "It's the first time I heard something so..."
Until I'll see you... Again~
"Warm."
Realizing someone was staring at him, he opened his blue eyes to meet darker ones staring into his. He blinked and the other did the same as well.
Once.
Twice.
Thrice.
Pinch!
"Wha...?" The girl pinched his cheek while Syo just stood there confused. After a moment, he realized what she was doing and instantly screamed. He backed up and blushed while stuttering out, "W-W-Who are you?!"
The said girl giggled, "My name is Suzuki Misora. Nice to meet you~"
"N-Nice to meet you too. . ." Syo replied back at the black haired girl and looked away while doing a small pout.
"That's a cute name." She said with a smile. Hearing about it, the blond quickly snapped his head to face her. A tint of pink formed on his cheeks with an irritated expression all over his face.
"I am NOT cute!" he almost shrieked. Misora laughed at his (cute)outburst while Syo covered his mouth and blushed again. "... What are you doing here?" She asked while tilting her head to the side.
"Eh?" Syo then remembered what he was doing a moment ago, "Oh, I got lost and I'm trying to find a way back to the lobby." He scratched the back of his head and looked down in embarrassment.
"I see." Misora's mouth formed an 'o' shape as she thought of an idea to help the blond.
"Want me to help you?"
"No!" He retorted with an annoyed tone. He was still irritated to the fact she called him cute.
"Alright~" Misora said as she waved goodbye and left him.
Syo flinched and started running after her. "W-Wait!" He yelled out for her. Misora giggled and turned to face him. "Yes?"
He sighed and tipped his fedora and said, "I might get lost again. So... can you show me the way?" Misora nodded and the two of them walked back to where Syo ran away from. The walk was long with the kids not saying one single word but Misora's humming was around them all the way. Syo decided to end the awkward silence with a conversation because he got bored of it.
"So why are you in the hospital?" He asked, looking at her with a questioning look.
Misora looked at him and pondered, "Oh! Um. . . I don't know!"
Syo sweatdropped at her carefree-ness as he sighed.
"How about you?"
"I have a heart condition... Well, that's what my parents told me." Syo said as he pointed where his heart was located. Curiosity was killing him. Why is she here? He was about to ask the same question again but...
"Oh! We're here!" Misora exclaimed with her cheery side, jumping up and down.
"Finally... Thanks for your-" Syo's sentence was cut-off by a single pinch on his cheek. Well... for him it's not just a single pinch.
"Where have you been, Syo-chan?!" Kaoru said as he continued pinching his older twin's cheek. "You made us worried!"
"Ow... I'm sowwy... Staph... it!" Syo barely said any of those words because of the pinching from his younger twin brother. Kaoru let go of Syo as he rubbed his swollen cheek.
"At least you found your way back here without getting lost." Kaoru said with a grin. With that said, Syo just scratched his cheek and let out a nervous laugh. Kaoru looked at him with a confused look then it hit him with realization. "You got lost, didn't you?" He raised an eyebrow at his older twin. "Yes..." The latter responded.
Kaoru sighed and spoke up, "Well... How did you manage to get back here?"
"Oh, um, She helped m-" Misora jumped in front of Kaoru and said, "Hello! My name is Suzuki Misora! Nice to meet you!"The older blond grumbled on how he got cut-off many times by her now.
"Uh, Hello... My name is Kaoru, Syo-chan's younger twin." He said as he bowed politely. "Thank you for bringing back my brother."
"It was nothing." Misora said with a bright smile. "Well, I better get going!" She ran off of their sight after shouting, "Bye bye, Syo-kun! It was nice meeting you~"
Syo stared at her fleeting way as he watched her hair flutter with each skip she did. Her voice was still ringing inside his head.
The song...
"Syo-chan!"
The blond snapped out of his thoughts and turned to his twin who was climbing the stairs. "Let's go! Mom and Dad are waiting!"
"Coming!" Syo ran inside the hospital once again, much to his annoyance. He hated the inside of it. The twins met their parents, as what Syo said, they DID call the police. The latter could only sweatdrop as the other twin laughed nervously. He was really going to get a long scolding of a lifetime when they get home.
"I wonder if I'll see her again." Syo thought as he gazed at the sky outside of the window of the car. "I like to sing with her someday. . ."
Syo smiled to himself as he let out a silent giggle which made his twin brother look at him. Kaoru tilted his head at his older twin's sudden laughter. Maybe going to the hospital wasn't such a bad idea.
