BLURRY EYES

 

�Where in hell did u go!!!� Sakuya yelled the moment he saw his brother entering the house.

 

�I was� eermm� I was in Korea for a couple of days��

 

�WHAT!!! And u didn�t bother to tell us first??� Shinobu shrieked at their older brother.

 

Shinji ignored them and made his way to his room with his duffle bag.

 

�SHINJI UMEDA� Sakuya called out to no avail

 

�You come back here.� Shinobu added. But they were both ignored.

 

�I�ll talk when I�m ready.� Shinji called out and disappeared to his room

�Like finally! Why did u leave all of a sudden? We were worried!� A calmer Sakuya tried to reason with his aniki.

 

Shinji ate his dinner in silence as his brothers continued to torment him about his absence. He knew they were only concerned but he didn�t feel like talking right now.

 

�Where�s Otou-sama?� Shinji asked �Eh??? Oh� he�s still in Tokyo, won�t be back till next month.� Shinobu explained to his brother who was missing for the past five days.

 

�I�m sorry I left without telling you guys. I needed time.� He wiped his mouth with the napkin and left the dining area as his brothers remained clueless to his oddly behaviour.

 

*

 

�So your leaving again?�

 

�Yea� but I�ll be back� I promise.� Kaji cupped Shinobu�s face and gently placed a soft kiss on his lips. So delicate the kiss was, Shinobu almost felt like he was floating.

 

�I�ll wait for you then.� Shinobu mutter when the subtle pair left his lips.

�Shinji-aniki. You�ve got a call from Sendoh.� Sakuya burst into his brother�s empty room.

 

�Aniki???�

 

Shinji was sitting on the ledge of his window which overlooked their pool. He didn�t really hear his brother calling him. He was still thinking about Riki. He missed the concert� deliberately and he purposely choose to come back 5 days later, when he was well aware that Riki would have left Kanagawa by then.

 

�Shinji-aniki!!�

 

He jumped a little but not nearly enough to send him over the ledge.

 

�What is it?� Shinji turned to face his concerned brother holding his mobile phone like there was a call for him.

 

�Sendoh wishes to speak with you.�

 

Shinji sighed as he took the phone from his brother.

 

�yea�. Uhh.. Ok� Sure� Just ask him to call me� Yea� Should be alright� I�ll see him tonight then� Oh? Ok.. Fine.. I�ll meet him there. Thanks.. Bye.� Shinji hung up and flung the phone towards his blue covered bed.

 

�Well??� Sakuya asked.

 

�Its nothing my dear brother. You look so worried. Relax ok. Everything fine.� Shinji rummaged his brother�s hair and went to his closet. He picked out a black polo t-shirt and a pair of dark boot-cut jeans.

 

�Going riding�� Sakuya said the moment he saw his brother taking out a pair of gloves that had not been taken out in a very long while

 

�Yea. I�m meeting Maki if your wondering where I�m going. We�re going out for coffee. Is that ok with you?� He walked towards his brother and kissed Sakuya�s forehead.

 

�Dun wait up.� He continued, without waiting for an answer from Sakuya.

 

*

 

�So you have no idea what Maki wants with Shinji-aniki?� the troubled boy asked the guy on the other end

 

�Nope��

 

�Oh come on� tell me!! I know u know!!!� Sakuya begged .

 

�If I tell you� what am I going to get??� Sendoh asked with a rather cheeky tone.

 

�Well�� Sakuya face seem to glow as his lips curved upwards, hinting some mischief that was going to land him and his brothers... make that everyone involved.. in serious trouble.
