Snow In December
106 Beach

Half an hour Ren was still waiting for Aoyama to come out of his room. Actually he wanted to be with his friends, but Ren decided to go home with Aoyama because he knew the parcel that fell was the lunch Aoyama bought for him. Because on the packaging there is writing without sugar, of course for him.

"Aoyama's... Am I bothering you? " Shouted Ren and knocked on the door of the room. Aoyama opens the door and tells Ren to come in.

"Do I bother you? "asked Ren once more while he was inside the room.

"If so, I might open the door. What was? " Aoyama's answer seems to indicate that her feelings have improved.

"I found a picture of you falling. It's." Ren gave Aoyama's photo.

"Who is this? " asked Ren curiously despite knowing who was photographed.

"Oh this is a photo of my childhood with Hinana. I'm so ugly, right? "Jawab Aoyama with a slight smile and received the photo that Ren gave.

"You two have been friends since childhood."

"hum. I met her since I was twelve years old, Hinana is five years younger than me."

Hearing Aoyama's relaxed-looking reply, it seemed that Aoyama had no feelings of anger towards Hinana. Ren realizes that as hard as Hinana swears at Aoyama, he never gets angry or even vengeful. Maybe because they have been friends for a long time, so already know each other's characters. That was what was on Ren's mind.

"You keep it if you want to." Aoyama gives back her photo to Ren.

"Ehhh.. "

"Didn't you like Hinana? You can keep a small photo of Hinana" Aoyama said and gave it to Ren's hand.

"Thank you." Ren smiled happily as if winning the race.

"We never know someone's destiny, Hinana who I think is strong turns out to be very stupid in love affairs. Hey Ren why don't you tell her how you feel? You two like each other, right? " Say Aoyama again and go towards the window. For now Aoyama dared to look towards the sky.

"I just want to protect her. With the time I have, I don't deserve to be with him. It'll just make him suffer." Answer Ren.

"How do you know if Hinana's suffering?"

"If I die, what about her?" renn replied with a bow.

"I get. Sometimes love just protects each other." Aoyama said briefly then they both fell silent.

Ren only holds a photo given by Aoyama, he really loves Hinana. But Ren doesn't want to make Hinana suffer after her death.

"Hey Aoyama, let's go to the beach. The setting sun will be beautiful if seen there. "Take Ren suddenly. Aoyama remained silent and stood in front of the window. Ren is also still confused by Aoyama's attitude, if Aoyama is not angry, if he wants to go to the beach to meet Hinana and others.

"I'll tell you a little bit about me."

"Ehh... "Ren was just confused by what his friend said.

"The beach is a painful thing for me. My mother died by suicide on the beach, even if there were no Hinana parents I would have died with my mother." Aoyama recounts her past to Ren. He remembers it a little.

"Gomennassai (sorry), I just can't make you remember those memories.. "Ren just looked down regretting his invitation.

Because from the morning he and his friends are very happy to talk about going to the beach. Perhaps that is what makes Aoyama sad because he remembers his past.

"It's okay. Go, keep warm while you're there. Cold air can make things worse. Wait for Hinana to pick you up, she knows that I hate the beach. So he'll definitely pick you up." Aoyama gave her coat to Ren.

"Gomenne... "The words came back out of Ren's mouth.

Aoyama did not reply to Ren's words, he chose to be silent even though it actually felt painful after saying it. Soon Hinana's voice was heard in both of their ears.

"Go he has come. "Aoyama Speaker.

Ren simply nodded and lowered his head slowly before leaving his room.

"Why so long? " hinana protests when meeting with Ren.

"I'm looking for warm clothes. Let's go."

"hum. " Hinana nodded, she placed a parcel on the door handle of Aoyama's room. He regretted making Aoyama's meal spill in the street. Then he went to follow Ren from behind.

Actually Hinana's been there for fifteen minutes. He also hears that Aoyama is telling Ren the bitterness of the past. There was a feeling of unbearability from him, because Aoyama could not say it from the beginning. And now that Aoyama told others, Hinana had no idea how much pain Aoyama was feeling right now.

...****************...

"This kind of thing alone has made you happy? I believe that small things can make you smile happily." said Hinana from the heart while looking at Ren's face closed his eyes.

"Hinana.." shouted Arimura who was on the beach.

"Oii Ren come here. "followed by Tsubaki's shout and waved.

"Let's go over there, "take Hinana and Ren nod.

Ren pulled out his phone and took pictures of his friends. He did not dare to approach because his friends were playing water.

Ren took a picture of the beach scene and sent it to his brother. But it looks like Shota has replaced the new Line ID.

"Hinana your bra is red" Tsubaki said after dousing Hinana with beach water.

"Basic lewd. " umapat Hinana but Tsubaki laughed instead.

Actually, Hinana's own fault for wearing white clothes, so when wet it will look laughable.

"Hey hey I feel sorry for Ren sitting there by himself" Emi said and pointed at Ren.

"Maybe Ren didn't bring a change of clothes, so didn't want to play with us. " Answer Tsubaki.

"Then why are we going to the beach if Ren can't have fun either. "Sahut Arimura's.

"i have an idea, come with me. "With a sly smile Arumi planned something for Ren to join.

Arimura walked closer towards Ren and spontaneously Ren moved away from seeing Arimura's wet clothes.

"Ren, there's a starfish over there you have to pick it up" Arimura said.

"Huh, why should I?" asked Ren in confusion.

"Do you like the starfish? " Arimura was still trying to persuade Ren to get closer to the water.

"Since when have I liked sea stars" Ren replied and laughed in surprise.

"Awas Ren's..... "Shouted Hinana suddenly and

BYURRRRR

Arumi doused water on Ren but failed because Hinana hugged him. Hinana remembers Aoyama saying that Ren must stay warm in order to be okay.

Ren was very shocked because suddenly Hinana hugged him so that made his smartband sound tight. Moreover, Hinana hugged him in a wet state of clothing. However, Ren is also a normal man.

"Ren are you okay? "Ask Arumi for being worried when she heard Ren's smartband sound.

"I was just surprised" replied Ren and Hinana taking off her arms. Then he turned off the sound from the clock he was wearing.

"Hinana you're really wearing a red bra. The obvious is. "Shouted Tsubaki approaching him.

"Fuck." Hinana once again.
