Chapter 52 - Reach Out

About an hour later, Ayumi's mother came into the room, "Ayumi, Sanyu is outside waiting for you." "Ah Alright," she head out the door to go to Sanyu.

He sees her and puts a smile on his baby face, "Hello." She smiles back, "Hi Sanyu." "Your house is pretty close to my apartment so we can just walk," He laughs. She nods her head, "Sure."

The couple walked back to Sanyu's apartment. As they were on their way, they began talking to each other. "Um, I just wanted to thank you for everything you've done for me.. I always cause trouble for you it seems," Ayumi held her head down and held her hands together nervously.

He shook his head, "Don't worry about me. No matter what, I will always come to help you if you're in trouble. Wherever you are, whenever it is, I will always reach out to you. Because I love you most in this entire world, you mean everything to me." Sanyu leans forward Ayumi and hugs her. She smiles and thanks him once again.

They soon arrived at the apartment an Ayumi began packing her things up in her suitcases. Sanyu helps her out. While picking her things up, the calendar fell off the fall and onto the floor. Ayumi picks the calendar up and places it on top of the drawer, "Honestly, I wish I can still be able to live here with you.. at least for a couple more days."

Sanyu smiles, "Don't worry about that." Ayumi suddenly remembers something, "Ah! Isn't your birthday tomorrow??!" Sanyu sighs, "You should've kept that to yourself...." She raises an eyebrow at him, "What's the matter?" He looks at her, "I was looking forward to your surprise birthday gift for me actually, but I guess that won't be happening anymore," he laughs.

"I— I don't know what to do now," Ayumi sulks up. Sanyu pats her shoulder and smiles warmly, "It's fine, don't worry about it now. Just do what you'll have to do. I'll accept anything." She nods her head, "Thanks.." They continue to pack Ayumi's belongings into the suitcase.

After everything was packed, the two hanged out for awhile before Ayumi returns back home. "I'm going to quite miss you here, to be exact," Sanyu leans back on the sofa. Ayumi looks at him, "Can you.. do me a favor?" "Sure. What's your favor?" Sanyu questioned. "Close your eyes," she responded. "What?" Sanyu laughs. "I have something to tell you, so close your eyes," she nervously says.

He inhales then exhales and closes his eyes shut, "Alright. Whenever you're ready to tell me then." Quickly, she kisses his cheek then covers her face with the sofa's pillow to hide her blushed face. Immediately after the short little kiss, Sanyu's eyes opened wide and he stood up. "WHAT! Oh my god!" He began jumping around like a little child in excitement and laughs.

Ayumi did not turn back to look at him, she continued hiding her face. He then sits back down on the sofa and pulls Ayumi up close to him, "That wasn't something you wanted to tell me, more like something you wanted to do?" "Your... face..it's.. pink," Ayumi awkwardly says. "Because of you, I got all excited. But look who's talking, yours is red!" He laughs at her.

After playing around together, they walked back to Ayumi's house. When they arrived, Sanyu asks Ayumi, "Tomorrow, I'm celebrating my birthday with my mom and some other people, will you come too?" She smiles back beautifully, "Of course! I can't miss out on my boyfriend's 18th birthday!"

He hugs her, "Thanks! I'll invite Kaya and Yuuto over as well!" "Then, I'll see you tomorrow!" Ayumi says as she enters the house. He waves goodbye and walks back to his apartment. As soon as Sanyu entered his apartment, he contacted his mother.

She picks up his call, "What is it my handsome son?" "I have a request, please accept it," he tells her.
