Yamada mentions how good the oyakodon is, and Kenta's gaze snaps back to the smaller blond. He takes the boy's thanks with a nod of his head, not quite sure how to explain the true reasons behind the gesture. "Tanaka-kun... Is it okay if I call you that? Thank you for coming too, and helping me escape. I'm not sure what I would have done if I was stuck in that room all day." Kenta loosens up at that. The fact that he's helping makes his heart a little bit lighter. XX
He watches Yamada eat with a blank mind, never having been good at small talk. Not that Yamada could even make small talk right now anyway. But then a piece of chicken is being held up in front of him, and Yamada's smiling from ear to ear, making Kenta's stomach lurch and eyebrows pinch in confusion. XXX
"Say aaah~!" Kenta feels his face flush bright red and he hesitates. Just what in God's name was Yamada thinking?! Kenta pushed away thoughts of it being an indirect kiss - surely Yamada wasn't thinking of it that way, so neither should he - and leaned forward, taking the piece of chicken without a sound. It was definitely better than any food the hospital would have provided, and Kenta understands Yamada's gratitude. "Thank you. But you don't have to share it." XX
They stay there for a long while. Kenta listens to the rain pounding on the glass, to Yamada eating, to the wind rustling the plants from the open panels. When he notices Yamada's IV starting to run out, Kenta stands, gathering their things and declaring it time to go back inside. "I'd hate for you to get worse because of me." He says, steering them back toward the elevator. "I want you to heal." XX
The nurses inside the building hurry to work replacing Yamada's IV, and when they make it obvious Kenta's no longer wanted in the room (one of the women tries to be more polite, while the other just stares him down), he bids goodbye to Yamada and moves to leave, taking the oyakodon box with him. XX
