His sobs became quieter and less frequent, and he started to take a few deep breaths. After about one minute, he was completely silent except for breathing. “A Bento box...Homemade? Y-yeah, I’d love to try some,” he said, flashing a small smile.
“Hey, what’s college like? I never went past freshman college year, and I want to go back.”
Then he asked her about college. "To be honest, I don't really know why I'm there. I'm studying psychology, but it's sooo boring! I have no friends because everyone thinks I'm weird. All I really want to do is music. Be a DJ forever!"
“So, you like music? Want to sing a song together? I have a few in mind!”
She slathered her California roll with wasabi and took a bite- wincing as the spice went down her nose! Then she laughed. "Sure, I love music! What shall we sing?"
“ Watch my heart beat out of my chest
We’ve done something wrong, was it you or am I the one here taking the blame?
Feel my throat sink, deeper and deeper I’m gasping for air
Is it me or are you not feeling this, feeling this, feeling the same?
Woah-Woah-Oh
Woah-Woah-Oh
I’ve done everything perfect to instruction
Woah-Woah-Oh
Woah-Woah-Oh
Tell me you’re trying, tell me you’re lying
Woah-Woah-Oh
Woah-Woah-Oh
I’ve done everything perfect for destruction
Woah-Woah-Oh (x2)
I can’t be alone with this feeling
Am I the only one that’s holding on for far too long?
Was it all just a dream? Am I wrong, was there no you and me?
Scream and call me hopeless, shout out that you have nothing left
Something, just say anything, don’t end this with words left unsaid
Don’t you hear me, crying out for you? As you turn away
Is it true or are you not feeling this, feeling this, feeling the same?
(I’ll just skip to the end because it’s a pain to write)
Was I supposed to just be okay, after everything that you did?
I was broken, I was hurting, but I’m meant to forgive?
You cut me to pieces, it’s your fault I’m a complete wreck
And I guess I didn’t matter to you
The worst part? I always knew...
#“Baby, I see this world has made you sad
Some people can be bad
The things they do, the things they say
But baby, I'll wipe away those bitter tears
I'll chase away those restless fears
And turn your blue skies into gray
Why worry
There should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
Why worry now
Baby, when I get down I turn to you
And you make sense of what I do
And though it isn't hard to say
But baby, just when this world seems mean and cold
Our love comes shining red and gold
And all the rest is by the way
Why worry
There should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
Why worry now.”#
"Kokoro...?” he whispered to himself.
To Seiko, he quietly asked, "Will you...give me a hug?" he asked with red cheeks.
She leaned over and put her arms around him, being careful not to knock out any of the wires.
“I-I’m sorry, Seiko......” he whispered, starting to cry again. His fear from the past several weeks left him through his tears, and he held onto her but not too tight, letting them flow.
