Yamapi yawned as he sat in the room, waiting for their manager to arrive. Ryo sat next to him.

“Why so tired? Where did you go last night?” he asked.

“I spent these few days with Linda. Remember that her friend was in coma due to an accident?
Linda was really down and upset so I have to be there for her. She refused to eat and sleep because she is afraid that something will happen to Yuki when she is asleep. Yuki woke upthis morning so Linda is happier and i can relax,” Yamapi replied and rubbed his neck and accidentally showed a red mark.

“Ohh...” Ryo replied and eyed at the mark.

“What is that?” he asked, pointing to the mark.

“Ahh..Mosquito bites. I forgot to close the window and there had been quite a lot of mosquitoes lately at my house,” Yamapi answered smoothly.

Ryo raised his eyebrow but didn’t comment any further. He just felt his heart was being pierced by a thousand knives when he heard Yamapi’s explanation even though he doubted his story.

“Tegoshi is not here today. He took the day off,” Ryo remarked.

“Hmm...” Yamapi nodded as he had already knew it.

During break, Ryo decided to call Linda. “Linda-chan?” he asked.

“Ryo,” she answered chirpily.

“What are you doing?” he asked.

“I am talking to Yuki. I’ll be spending the whole day here. I took a few days off,” she told him.

“I see. Want to meet me later? Let’s have dinner together. It’s been quite awhile that we spend time together right?” Ryo asked her out.

“Hmm..i have to get back to you later though. Have to ask Yamapi first. I’ll call you again, ok?” Linda answered.

“Oh...I’ll wait for your answer then,” he replied and hung up.

“Who is that?” Yuki asked.

“A friend asked me out. I have to ask Yamapi about it,” Linda explained and dialled Yamapi’s number.

“Moshi moshi,” he answered.

“Yamapi, a friend of mine asked me out tonight,” she told him.

“Who?” he asked.

“A friend. So, you do not need to see me later. I will see you tomorrow, ok?” she said.

“Chotto! Who is it?” he asked.

“A friend of mine. Ja,” she answered and hung up.
