To the man I love:

By Tsmr

 

 

Swear in front of the god and you two will be legal man and wife.

 

Cheer and clapping sound was all over the hall, congratulating the newly weds. The only person sitting at the very end was not moving, not having any facial expression. He was staring blankly at the newly weds, heart deepen, feeling depressing but still he wishes them from the very bottom of his heart, all the best to them.

 

The bridegroom was laughing happily as the guests congratulate him. He was showing all his love to his wife, smiling all the way until his sight came into contact with that man and his smile faded. Just gazing into each other eyes…

 

“ Kaoru let go out to take pictures with the guest.” The bride held onto his husband arm and they walk out together.

 

The other man still did not move, his vision was still going after the bridegroom, the man he love.

 

 

 

The newly weds was sending their guest off, shaking hand with them. It was here that Kaoru receive a note in his hand, he did not see clearly who gave it to him but he could guess it. Taking a short break, Kaoru went behind the church and read the note. At the moment he see the handwriting, he know he is right.

 

Congratulate for your wedding

All the best to you and your wife

&

I love you…

 

Kaoru let go of the small piece of paper, letting it blew away by the wind together with his love for that man. It is all over for them now… and forever. The paper fly in the air, Kaoru look at it and smile and a tear drip down from his face.

 

“ Kaoru what are you doing here, we’re all waiting for you.”

 

“ Just taking some rest my love.” Kaoru reply and walks to his wife.

 

 

~*~*~

 

 

Kaoru first meet him when he was sixteen years old, in high school. He was a transfer student who had make a rare transfer during the middle of the year, had make himself the attention of the school. They were in the same class and he sits beside Kaoru.

 

Their first impression for one another was extremely awful, they had ended up having a big fight before they finally becomes friend. During the rest of the high school period, they were the best buddies, always stick together in whatever thing they do until one day they finally realized their feeling for one another.

 

Follow by, they get to know each other feeling and had accepted the fact that they had fall in love with the same sex and they become lover. This relationship does not go on for long; there had been rumors about them as gay. At first they just silently accept the rumors but after some time when the rumors was getting on too much, he finally left Kaoru for his own pride as a man.

 

This is the first time they break up. Kaoru very first love who had hurt him.

 

 

 

Five years later.

 

Kaoru meet him for the second time, in Tokyo. Kaoru had went for work and one day he went to a pub where he meet him there. He was working in the pub. Kaoru thought he will never forgive him for leaving him behind, he thought he will hate him for sure when they meet again but all this was all push away when they see each other again.

 

They fall in love again. This time deeply in love because they were already adult, they don’t have to care so much about rumors, especially in place like Tokyo. But they were wrong.

 

They never expect their problem would arise because of them being as an adult. Firstly, the apartment they are living together had found out about their relationship had ended their contract with them and they had to move away. Kaoru boss get to hear of some rumors about him and his lover had force him to resign his job as the office was all about Kaoru affair and had affected the others work.

 

Kaoru willing quit his job because all he wants is to be with his lover. He did not care so much, he could just find another job whether is it an office job or sale job. He did all this for his lover… sacrifice so much even when Kaoru family get to know about it, Kaoru decides to chose his lover and left his family.

 

Then one day, Kaoru went home and find his lover sleeping with someone else. Being an adult, this will be another problem, the third party. His lover had did all he can to make Kaoru believe he only love him and Kaoru believe, knowing that his lover really did love him but he was just some kind of flirt.

 

Few months later, they broke up. Kaoru was left behind again.

 

 

 

Kaoru had been living in Tokyo all the while after his lover left him. He could not go home because his parents did not forgive him, he could not find a proper job because the rumors about him were flying all over those offices. He is working in few places as part timer, had buried himself in his work in order to forget his lover.

 

He hates him; never forgive him. Kaoru had been telling himself all this almost every night before he sleep. So many years had passed; Kaoru still could not forget his lover.

 

 

Kaoru was working as usual in a café when he meets his lover again.

 

“ Kaoru I finally found you.”

 

Kaoru stare at the person standing in front of him. It was the very same person that had left him twice, he should hate this person, he should never forgive him but his heart softens.

 

“ Die… why are you here?”

 

“ I have been searching for you since I come back from Hongkong and I finally find you.”

 

“ Why are you still looking for me… you know how much I … I …” Kaoru wanted to hit the man standing in front of him but he couldn’t.

 

“ I love you Kaoru.” Die ended their speech with these sentences.

 

 

They live with one another, for the next few years Die was showing all his love to Kaoru, making up for what he had cause for his love during the past. They were happy together, love each other.

 

Kaoru was so blissful all the while that he did not expect this to happen. Die brought a little girl home one day and tells Kaoru that this little girl was his daughter. Kaoru was stun for what he had heard from his lover but still he forgive him since Die told him that he had already divorce with the girl mother.

 

Not long after, Die ex-wife appear in front of them and want to reunite with Die. Not knowing what he should do. Kaoru dote the girl and want her to have a complete family but this will mean he had to give up Die. He couldn’t be selfish but he love Die and does not want to give up.

 

In the other hand, what will Die do? Kaoru was afraid that Die would go back to his wife for his daughter sake although Die tell Kaoru that he only love him now, Kaoru was still frighten that Die might left him again.

 

Few days later, Die and his daughter did not come back to Kaoru place.

 

 

Kaoru was shattered. For the three days, he did not eat a thing or leave the house. All he did was sitting beside the bed, dazing.

 

“ Kaoru…?” Die called out as he enters the house.

 

Kaoru thought he had heard wrongly but then he confirm it was Die calling him when he hears it second times.

 

“ Die!” Kaoru rush out of the room and see his lover.

 

Die sees how his lover had become so pale, he felt pain for Kaoru and embraces his lover tightly.

 

“ I thought you never come back again…” Kaoru had cried out.

 

“ Didn’t I left you a note telling you that I’ll be bringing Miaka (Die’s daughter) back to his mother and will be back soon?”

 

Die remembers his past doing. Kaoru was properly afraid that he would not come back again. Somehow he curses himself for making his lover suffered.

 

“ Promised you never left me.” 

 

Die took out something from his pocket and shows it to his lover. “ Let’s get marry.” Die said and open the little box containing a ring. “ I bought this during my trip, let go to USA and we get marry there.”

 

Kaoru finally smile, finally he thought Die would be with him forever. “ I will.” He whispers at Die ear, kissing his lover.

 

 

Kaoru was making his last check before leaving the house. Die had gone to collect the ticket and they will be meeting in the airport. Just as Kaoru was about to leave the house, he heard something ringing and finally found a handphone that was left behind by Die.

 

“ Hello.” Kaoru answered the phone.

 

“ Papa?”

 

“ You’re Miaka?”

 

“ Uncle Kaoru?”  Miaka called. “ Where is papa?”

 

Kaoru speaks to Miaka for a while telling her Die was not in and asking how is her and her mother. Miaka just said out what is in her mind since Kaoru had asked her and after a while they hang up the phone.

 

I like uncle Kaoru but you steal papa away from me.

 

Kaoru was shattered. He had hurt a child, not knowing what should he do.

 

“ Miaka… I’m sorry… I” Kaoru muttered.

 

Papa said he wants to be with me but he could not leave uncle Kaoru. Please give papa back to me? Uncle Kaoru cans you?

 

Kaoru rubs his forehead. He was happy that Die had chosen him this time but will Die blame him in future for separating him and Miaka? Miaka is still a child, she need Die more than Kaoru… she needs.

 

 

Die was still waiting for Kaoru at the airport. The plane had fly away, so many hours had passed but Kaoru does not appears.

 

 

~*~*~

 

 

Kaoru and his wife enter the wedding car and drove away after his wife throw the bouquet of flower to the other girls there. Kaoru was looking out the car, his mind was still thinking about the pass. Just then he saw someone standing on top of the small hill, Kaoru could see clearly the face of that man.

 

Kaoru smile to that man, it was a smile from his heart and the car away.

 

“ What are you looking at?”

 

“ Nothing just a friend.”

 

Kaoru hug his wife on the waist and give her a kiss.

 

 

Die look at the vanishing car. He had sees the smile of his love, at least now he know Kaoru does not hate him and Kaoru was happy. Die let go of the paper in his hand and it flew away with the wind. It was the very same piece of paper Kaoru had seen…
