■Y/N's POV■

It's 9 PM right now, I've just finished arranging my new apartment. I came back to Japan 2 months ago because my grandfather passed away. About last month, I took the civil servant test and passed.

I moved out of my grandparents' house, where my grandmother and parents stay at. It's been six years since I left Japan and I still love this country more than where I lived before.

Sara and I keep in contact even when I'm abroad. Right after I came back here, she came to meet me right away. She lives in Tokyo now along with her boyfriend.

Just when I'm thinking about her, my phone rings and it's from her.

Sara: Y/N! How is it? Have you finished moving in already?

Y/N: yes Sara, I've just finished... kind of tired hehe...

I walk to the kitchen while listening to Sara speaks. I open the fridge and take the milk bottle, and pour some into a glass.

Sara: Y/N you should hook up with someone already! I can't believe you're still single after all that time... why didn't you accept any of those guys who you told me confessed to you...

Y/N: I just don't want to be in a relationship yet Sara... I... still don't

Sara: Y/N, not all guys are like Semi Eita... there are a lot of guys who are not jerks.

Y/N: it's not like that... and don't say something bad about Semi too, he just... people changes... maybe that's what best for him...

Sara: cheating on you is what's best for him? Well, I don't know... anyway I'm so gonna hook you up with someone!

Y/N: Sara you don't have to, you are busy too... I mean when the time comes I'll eventually open up...

Sara: Find a man or two in your office! And, oh babe you're back... Y/N I'll call you later, Kiriya is back.

Y/N: hihi, okay, say hello to Kiriya  good night Sara

I walk to my balcony, slide the door open and step out of the room to feel the night wind. I look straight at the night's city view, holding onto the railings when a voice makes my body stiffens.

I turn my head to look at my right side. There, on the balcony next door, a guy with familiar ash blonde hair stands. His brown eyes stare at me, widened.

Semi: Y...N?

It's... Semi...

■Semi's POV■

I've just got back from a gig. I can hear a sound from next door, so it's finally occupied. The apartment next door was vacant for three months.

I walk to my balcony and put on my earphones, listening to some of my demos. I didn't hear as the door on the balcony's next door is opened, but I can feel that someone is there.

I turn my gaze to see what my new neighbor looks like. My breath hitches and my heart skips a beat as my eyes caught the figure who's standing on the balcony.

(Long/Short) (h/c) hair is swayed by the night breeze, as her (e/c) eyes reflecting the light from the city. That face is the face I haven't seen for years. My new neighbor is.

Semi: Y...N?

Y/N turns her gaze at me, her eyes are widened when our eyes meet. She looks the same, just more mature.

She's back...

Semi: Y/N... it's been a while, when did you return?

As if she was snapped out of her mind she looks flustered a little and bows her head lightly.

Y/N: ah yes, I've just returned a couple of months ago... it's been a while, Semi...

Semi... huh... not Eita...

Somehow my chest clenches when she used my last name instead of my given name, but who am I to complain.

Semi: so... you'll be living next door?

Y/N: yess, I'm the new tenant, it's close by to my new workplace... So, Semi you live Nextdoor?

Semi: yes... well, we're neighbor now haha...

Y/N nods her head at me, the atmosphere is pretty awkward. I don't know how to act in front of her, because our last encounter wasn't too good.

We didn't actually solve our problem and just let it slides. I remember the day of our graduation, where I saw her for the last time.

Just when I thought that she's going to avoid my eyes, but she smiled at me instead. Seeing her in front of me right now, makes me feel nervous but, I'm happy.

Semi: let's get along then... neighbor

Y/N was startled for a sec, but then she smiles sweetly. The usual genuine smile that made me fell for her before.

Y/N: yes Semi...

Maybe, we could be friends again...

And maybe... I'll get the chance to apologize too...

■3rd Person POV■

Y/N and Semi are talking to each other from their own balcony, but the one that they're talking about is their friends, not themselves.

Y/N asked about Semi's friends Ushijima, Ohira, and Tendo well being, while Semi asked about Sara's.

Deep down the two actually want to know how each other's doing but they're still in a pretty awkward situation.

Not seeing each other for six years, definitely has its own toll on them. As the night wind is getting colder, Y/N turns around and about to walk inside her apartment.

Y/N: it's getting cold out here... I'm going inside first... good night Semi...

Semi: uh, sure...

Semi watches as Y/N walks to her door and stops. She looks back a little and finally asks what she's been holding.

Y/N: Semi... how have you been?

Semi was startled when she asked that, in fact, Semi wants to ask the same question to her, but she beat him up.

Semi: I'm doing... fine I guess... how about you Y/N?

Y/N could feel that the blood is rushing through her body, as Semi still calls her by her name. Y/N takes a deep breath and clears her mind, then she turns back and smiles at Semi.

Y/N: I'm doing great...

Semi stares at Y/N as she gently smiles at him. How he still remember her smiles sometimes, but now he could see it again.

Semi: good... to hear that

Semi smiles back at Y/N, and then the two finally say goodbye as Y/N walks into her apartment.

When they're no longer in each other's presence, the two sighs and Y/N slumps down as her knees feel weak.

Semi leans his forehead to the railing and stares at his arms. Seeing each other made them feel like seeing someone with unfinished business.

Semi: God...

Y/N: what should I do???

Both are thinking the exact same thing.

My neighbor is my ex...
