"Yes I say." He walks toward me again and takes my hand. He drops something in it and closes my hand.
"Something special for someone special. And don't forget tha-" -HONK- His dad's car goes.
"COME ON KIATSU WE GOT TO GO!" He yells out the window.
He looks at me sadly and runs to the car. I want to yell don't go and hug him. He gets me and he is the only one who does. I watch them drive off and the whole time he drives away Kiatsu doesn't take his eyes off of me. I wave and he smiles. I always miss that smile. As I can't see their car I open my hand. A necklace with a gold plate shaped like a heart charm that says cousin. Where did he even get this? Did he know he would meet someone today? Did Kotoko tell him about me? So, many questions. I turn the heart charm over and it says special. I quickly put it on. I took my hand to feel the charm around my neck and all I can do is smile.
"Aiko ready to go?" My mom asks.
"Yes, Mom." I say and go inside to say bye to my family.
Naokatsu runs up to me I crouch down to his level and he gives me a huge hug goodbye.
"I love you Aiko." He says. I know he does. I wish I could see him more often but I can't. He lives in Kyoto. 6 hours away from Tokyo where I am I feel a tear go down his face.
"Hey, I love you too. No crying you will see me again for New Years. Grandma's New Year Udon ok?" I smile for him and squeeze him tightly.
"Ok..." He looks disapointed. I didn't know what else to say I mean we visit once and while but yeah I miss out on the kids childhood sometimes. I didn't even get to see his first steps and his dad is my godfather. I get up and smile at him.
"Goodbye my kid flash." I say.
"Wait Aiko."
"Yes Naokatsu?"
"Why don't I know Kiatsu?"
"Naokatsu....I didn't know him either...." I say in disapointment and he frowns. "Hey, we will see him again ok. Naokatsu don't be sad I will tell him you love him ok?"
"Ok..I love you Flash."
"I love you too and Merry Christmas." I say and kiss the top of his head.
I get into my car and I hear a buzz from my pocket. It was Kiatsu texting me. I opened my phone
Kiatsu: Hey Aiko.
Me: Oh Hey is this Kiatsu?
Kiatsu: Yeah...
Me:Thanks for tonight and that necklace....
Kiatsu: So you liked it?
Me: Without a doubt....But how did you know.....When did you get it.....
Kiatsu: Well, me and kotoko were shopping yesterday and she told me to get it that I would probably like one of our cousins and we would be best friends funny how she was right
Me: Yeah she was...Thanks again
