Snow In December
114. Conveyed Feelings

"Ren kun, will you stay? I need you." said Hinana quietly but Emi could hear because she was next to Hinana.

"Of course Ren will be in Tokyo, me too, Arumi too. I won't leave you alone, won't I, Ren." Emi embraces Hinana's shoulder and wants Ren to also accompany Hinana as Hinana expected.

"Of course." Reply Ren who understands the cue from Emi.

"Don't you need me?" Tsubaki who feels ignored.

"You're also staying in Tokyo for an interview right, you're the bottom of the breed." Chirp Arumi and hit Tsubaki on the head.

"Aaaaahh itai (sick). Don't hit my head this is the biggest asset." Tsubaki squinted at Arumi.

"Have finished your meal" said Ren, breaking up a fight between Arumi and Tsubaki. He looks at Hinana and smiles, finally Ren managed to make Hinana return to her dream.

It was late at night and Ren had gotten a call from Aoyama to tell him to come home. They're all preparing to go home. When going into the mansion suddenly there is a black sports car parked next to Ren's house, the car does not belong to Ryusei.

"Nana Chan, I want to talk to you." Yukiatsu got out of the car and approached Hinana.

All of Hinana's friends are shocked to see the figure of Hinana's former lover.

"He's really handsome, more handsome than your brother." Emi whispered to Arumi as she looked at Yukiatsu.

"Stop, don't compare Ren to anyone. Wait since when do you know that Ren is my brother." Bisik Arumi gave a reply to Emi, she was surprised because Emi already knew if Ren was her brother.

"Alright but I don't have much time." Hinana answered, this time she did not want to escape again as her sister had said. Hinana complies with Yukiatsu's invitation but Hinana has previously said goodbye to her friends.

Yukiatsu takes Hinana to a beach not far from Ren's house.

"I still like you" Yukiatsu said without further ado. It was this gentle attitude that made Hinana like him.

"I know it." Hinana answered with a small laugh and then sat on the beach.

"HUH... How then?" yukiatsu asked as she saw Hinana only laughing at her confession.

"Hey Yukiatsu I've found someone I like. After all, don't you still have feelings for Nanami? I told you to leave because I felt Nanami needed you more, and my feelings for you started to get upset when I found out Nanami broke up from her fiance." said Hinana, who still held back the sadness.

"Can we go back to what we used to be? " ask Yukiatsu expectantly.

"I'm sorry, but right now you're just my first love. I've found a truly sincere love. Even though I was rejected." Answer Hinana.

"Do you like the CEO? " ask Yukiatsu again and remember that time Ren defended Hinana while being interviewed by a press reporter.

"Is it that easy to get caught." Hinana covered her face in embarrassment Yukiatsu managed to guess it.

"If it's true that guy I gave up, he looks good and is really great. Nana Chan spirit, this time your love journey must succeed. Don't be like me always clapping one hand. " Yukiatsu finally gives up on Hinana, knowing that it is impossible to be with Hinana as before.

"Yu Chan, do you still remember Sawako? When I left Tokyo, I met Sawako. "

"Sawako? " ask Yukiatsu and be a little surprised.

"Humm he's a good man, I think you can start." Hinana means that Yukiatsu can start her love journey with Sawako. Aren't the two of them friends since childhood, and Sawako also likes Yukiatsu.

"I'll meet him at leisure. Hinana thanks for everything. You're my first love, too."

"Thank you for making me your first love. Yukiatsu let's split up, sayounara (goodbye). " said Hinana saying goodbye.

The two of them finally left on a different path both Yukiatsu and Hinana.

...----------------...

"Aaaaah Baka (stupid). Why don't you guys stop Hinana from going with him. My brother was too stupid, they could have turned him back. I don't want this to happen." Ryusei screamed when he heard that his brother had left with Yukiatsu.

Ryusei had promised to protect Hinana while in Tokyo so after work he approached his brother at Ren's mansion. But she was shocked when she heard Hinana leaving with Yukiatsu.

Ren sat down and bit his fingertips. Actually he wanted to ban Hinana from leaving, but Ren realized that he was nothing to Hinana. Ren wants to protect Hinana but he also doesn't want Hinana to return to Yukiatsu.

" You can't decide someone's life, Hinana's suffering or not you won't know. It could be that Hinana is happy with you" said Aoyama.

Ren recalled Aoyama's words last time, he also recalled the words from Emi.

"Hey Ren, why don't you tell me how you feel? Hinana loves you so much, Hinana's waiting for you." Emi said.

Ren stood up from his seat, whether he felt right or wrong. Ren was just guessing at the moment maybe Hinana was on the beach. Hinana said if she likes snow, snow with water and water of course the beach. A place for someone to see water. Ren immediately ran to go to the beach.

"Ren wait, don't run." Shouted Aoyama and caught up with Ren.

"Sensei, matte (wait). " Arimura threw Aoyama's bag.

"Arigatou (thank you). " said Aoyama running after Ren. Tsubaki and Emi also pursue Ren, leaving Arumi and Ryusei to guard Arimura.

The smartband has sounded and Aoyama who heard is starting to worry.

"Ren quit, you're gonna die like this." Shouted Aoyama but Ren seemed to heed her Sensei's remark .

Ren began to slow down his steps when he saw the figure he was looking for was walking.

"Ren quit." Aoyama still screams and chases after Ren.

Hearing Aoyama's voice calling for Ren made Hinana raise her gaze.

"More.. " Hinana was surprised when Ren immediately hugged her, he also heard Ren's smartband sounding loudly.

"Don't go back to him. L'm... I also like Hinana." Ren said half-screaming.

Aoyama, Tsubaki and Emi can also hear Ren's love. They then stopped a bit away from Hinana and Ren's place.

"Please be with me, even if I have very little time" Ren said with tears that he could no longer hold back.

Hinana also shed tears. Someone who was in front of him was a figure he loved so much finally expressed his feelings. The person who had once rejected her but still paid more attention to Hinana ended up loving her as well.

"I also want to be with Renchiro Koizumi." Hinana answered and hugged Ren.

Slowly, Ren's smartband sound is finally finished. Ren's heart rate had already gradually normalized the moment Hinana hugged him.

From Yukiatsu's ignorance see if Hinana's love journey has succeeded. He accidentally turns around when parting ways with Hinana, but Yukiatsu is still actually following Hinana to make sure if her loved ones are okay until home.

"Sayounara (goodbye) Hinana Arizawa, be happy." Clear details slowly trickled down Yukiatsu's cheeks, despite the intense pain in her heart but Yukiatsu tried to smile at her first love with someone else.
