Younju's Fan Fiction (final)
Durarara!! (Japanese Animation)
-
“I’ll see you guys tomorrow then!”
“Bye Bye.”
“Goodbye…”
The three students in blue school uniforms separated
after a farewell to each other. The sunset was covering the town of Ikebukuro
with its yellow streams of light. After the farewell, Mikado, one of the three
students, slowly made his way home by crossing the traffic. He sighed for once
before crossing the road. The movement of his legs was somehow exhausted.
While walking, he thought of his friends
who he just said goodbye. Masaomi, the brightest one out of them was noisy as
always. Mikado tried to persuade him again from going out to Ikebukuro Park to
search for some girls to date with. When Mikado first saw Masaomi doing that,
he didn’t have a clue how to stop him, but now, after 6 months of attending the
same school as him, Mikado was surely used to it. It was like an everyday life
and this made him realize how frightening familiarity could be.
Anri, the only girl was the one who Mikado
secretly fell in love. Even though Mikado thinks that it is ‘secret’, everyone
in Raira High School seemed to know about their ‘secret love’. And it is only
Mikado and Anri themselves didn’t realize about their awkward relationship.
The main Sunshine road of Ikebukuro was
busy and filled up with people especially during the afternoon. As dodging the
crowd and making his way, Mikado thought of the cute smile Anri made when
Mikado and Masaomi were talking about their childhood. The two boys knew each
other when they were very young, and because Anri is a new member of their
‘circle’, she seemed to enjoy listening to Mikado and Masaomi’s past and
childhood episodes.
Mikado was sure that he felt happy when
Anri smiled. Yes. That was for sure. But along with the happiness, he felt a hint
of jealousy blazing up at the corner of his heart. At first, he couldn’t
discover the reason why, and how he had the kind of feeling, but…
“Masaomi…”
Now he understood.
He legs stopped. He couldn’t move it as if
he got paralyzed by something. People who were walking behind him bumped into
him shouting rude words at him, but he couldn’t hear them. They even said it
straight at his face walking past but he was unable to hear their voices.
Inside of him, there was a tornado of percussion and agony. He did not know
what to do so he came up with a decision not to do anything.
Mikado has no idea how Masaomi and Anri
could be thinking about each other. The feeling that they would feel when
Mikado isn’t around. He was sure that Masaomi is currently attracted to her
because he asked her out officially when three of them were on the way home
together one day. Although he said it in a tone just joking around and there
were no seriousness in him, no one knows the truth of what Masaomi really
thinks about her.
The most fact that Mikado is concerned
about is Anri’s feelings towards Masaomi. Anri is a kind of girl who does not
express her thoughts to anyone. She seemed to have no experience of loving
another person, but the only moment she smiles and expresses her happiness is
when Mikado and Masaomi are around.
But that fact was what Mikado was most
concerned about.
Not knowing what Anri is thinking towards
Masaomi, but neither Mikado himself. That was the most painful agony.
He stood there not moving an inch looking
down at his feet. It was like an enormous amount of information swarming about
inside Mikado’s head. He couldn’t admit the possibility of Masaomi and Anri
getting together.
But the most thing that he could not admit was
Mikado himself thinking about that possibility.
“Oi! What are you doing in the middle of
the path?”
When Mikado came up with that conclusion,
he was disturbed by someone shouting right in front of him. A familiar voice. A
voice which Mikado hear everyday now.
“Are you okay? You look a bit pale.”
“Masaomi.” murmured Mikado with a surprised
look on his face as he faced the person in front of him.
His very oldest friend who he knew since he
was a child.
“I came back looking for you. I don’t like
talking serious stuff, but somehow I thought you weren’t feeling well today. I
was concerned so I couldn’t go back home. Is something wrong?” explained
Masaomi looking at Mikado with a worried face.
Mikado didn’t say anything. For a moment,
he closed his eyes and took a deep sigh. He looked up at Masaomi and smiled
almost alike to the smile that Anri made before, but more happily.
“Nothing Masaomi. Nothing was wrong except
for me.” said Mikado.
Masaomi was curious at first when he saw
Mikado’s smile, but he instantly smiled along with him. Somehow, he was
relieved that he came back to Mikado.
“Wanna go search for pretty girls in
Ikebukuro Park today?” said Masaomi with a delightful laugh.
“Masaomi!” shouted Mikado angrily, but his
face looked happy and relieved as well.
The two boys in blue school uniform walked
down the crowded Sunshine road in Ikebukuro. The town was starting to get dark
but the two of them did not care. Mikado and Masaomi were certain that their
friendship will have no end, and even when misery comes to both, the two boys
will be there for each other.
