When I finish my report, it's already late at night.
Finally, I can go home.
And I didn't expect to see the very person I am thinking about...
Manager...!
"You must be tired. I'll drive you home." said Mew, standing near the entrance, smoking his cigarette.
He's been waiting for me...?
At Mew's Car
Silence is enveloping the two of us.
"Uhm...Manager, I want to apologize. It's all my fault we can't go on that trip." I said, breaking the silence.
"Don't worry about it. It's not your fault." He said, patting on my back with his one hand while the other is on the steering wheel. "We can still go on as many trips as we want after this, but the job is our top priority."
I thought he would be mad at me.
But he gives encouragements instead.
When I think of it, he always sees straight through me...but I always try to run away.
I am not honest to myself, I can't express my feelings properly...
"Here we are..." Mew said, when they reached Gulf's home.
Gulf jolted when he heard Mew's voice, pulling him from his thoughts.
I can't let him go just like this. I have to say something to him...
"Would you...come over for a while...? Gulf mumble, almost like a whisper.
To someone I like...
"I...." Gulf continue, clutching his pants tightly.
I have to express my feelings properly.
"...Manager, you're saying it's alright because after this we can go as many times as we want...But I feel such regrets. It's because I really want to go on that trip with you."
Mew didn't say anything, he just listening and sometimes take a glance at Gulf.
"Watching fireworks, and have delicious meals. Taking a bath together. And spend a whole day...just the two of us." Gulf said, fiddling his fingers.
"Well then, how about we do it now until morning? Bathing together." said Mew, finally looking at Gulf.
