The Love of Two Continents
53

The next day, as usual Kim Taehyung went to school. When he got to the gate there was someone who threw him with a small stone, so Taehyung immediately looked for who did it.

A woman wearing glasses and a black hat hid behind a tree, and waved at Taehyung.

"Enterprise...." Taehyung strangles when he finds out that the girl in disguise is Megumi, his classmate.

"Stttt... Don't talk out loud, I'll be caught." Megumi said as she closed her lips with her index finger as a gesture to Taehyung not to speak loudly.

"What are you doing here?" Taehyung asked in a softened voice and looked left and right to make sure no one knew.

"Sport week, I want to see it. Because you're all I know so I'm waiting for you. Hey, can you find me a safe place?" Megumi answered and took off the hat she was wearing.

Megumi was already wearing a sports uniform like the other students in order to easily disguise herself. Taehyung smiled happily because Megumi still remembered him.

"Wakatta (well), let's go." Taehyung immediately grabbed Megumi's hand and then asked Megumi to run to enter the school. Taehyung and Megumi end up in a classroom park where no one is there.

"Hey what match do you want to see. Today our class will hold a relay race and basketball." Ask Taehyung.

"Just whatever. You're not playing futsal anymore?"

"There's no scheduled futsal match yet." Taehyung answered Megumi's question.

"Alright, then I'll come with you."Megumi said then she accidentally looked at the flowers that had been planted by Taehyung.

"Ehh beautiful....! It was winter, but the flowers bloomed beautifully." Megumi was fascinated by the yellow chrysanthemum flowers in the garden.

"This is our classroom garden." Reply Taehyung told Megumi.

"Hountonis? (really). It's so beautiful, look at the other garden. There are no flowers that bloom at all, while here the flowers are yellow like spring only. Hey, who's taking care of him?" Megumi asked still with a smile on her face, and it fascinated Taehyung even more.

"I." Taehyung replied a little embarrassed.

"You're so cool Kim Taehyung."

Hearing the words from Megumi made Taehyung very surprised. Because Megumi mentioned her name and Megumi could remember it.

"Do you remember my name?" Ask Taehyung.

"Of course, haven't we met a few times? You're the one Sensei took to my house, right?" Answer Megumi.

"So desuka (Is it so). Hey Megumi chan, we can just see the basketball game. Let's go." Taehyung then takes Megumi to the gym. As usual Taehyung invites Megumi to look from above, because that is where it is safest so that Megumi is not known by others.

All of his classmates were seen cheering as the game of basketball began. They were so amazed by Hiroaki's really cool game.

"Enjoy you see someone wearing the number eleven shirt. He is Hiroaki." Taehyung said as he pointed towards Hiroaki.

"Hum, I think he's the captain."

"Hiroaki and you are also close friends." Taehyung said, but Megumi looked at him without even blinking. "I'm just telling you, stop looking at me like that."

"I understand. Is Kim Taehyung also close friends with Hiroaki?"

The question from Megumi as if makes Taehyung very confused to answer it. Between yes and no. Because right now Hiroaki is not like he used to be with Taehyung.

"Not really," Taehyung replied with a faint smile on Megumi.

Megumi who had seen Taehyung just gave a smile because she felt bland with what she saw today.

Taehyung only looked at Megumi blankly, not believing that Megumi had also forgotten Rikako.

"You don't remember Rikako at all?" Ask Taehyung carefully.

"Ahhhh, maybe that girl is also a close friend of mine. I've forgotten everything, maybe to everyone I'm a freak." Megumi said slowly and then she walked out of the sports hall.

Taehyung rushes to follow Megumi from behind. He doesn't want anyone to see Megumi in her current state.

"Hey, want to go somewhere?" Ask Taehyung.

"Where?"

Without Taehyung's approval, he immediately grabbed Megumi's hand, he invited her to a place that was nothing but a park around the hospital.

"Kim Taehyung, don't you care if you leave school?" Megumi asked as she walked behind Taehyung.

"Of course not."

"Hey Megumi, I always come here when I feel bad. Look at the flowers are blooming." Taehyung then ran towards the flower that had bloomed.

"Woah... It's beautiful...!" Taehyung said in amazement when he saw the flowers that had been waiting for had bloomed.

"Black lilies, do you like them?" Megumi was next to Taehyung.

"Hum, how do you think you're beautiful?" Taehyung and Megumi just nodded.

Megumi then sat on one of the swings with a glaring look, realizing that Taehyung was coming straight for her. He also bought a can of freshly bought drinks from a vending machine.

"Taehyung-kun, don't you see me as a freak?

Of course you are, but you're acting like everything's fine." Megumi said as Taehyung approached her.

Taehyung still has not said anything, he does not know how to reply to Megumi's words. He also no longer wished to go too far.

"Megumi is different from the people I've met. When I first met you, it was Megumi's smile that changed my life."

Megumi only smiled faintly as she looked at Taehyung's face. Somehow hearing a word from the man in front of her had made Megumi regain her confidence.

"Hountoni ? (really)." Megumi asked and Taehyung just nodded her head.

Taehyung returned a smile from Megumi who had rarely been seen in front of him.

Masahiro could only stick her hand on her chest. Although his lips were smiling but the pain just flowed within his chest.

Slowly he could only let go of the girl he had loved all along.

'Megumi chan be happy.' Masahiro said in his heart, he turned his steps and left Taehyung and Megumi in the park.

At that time Masahiro saw Taehyung who ran to invite Megumi to the sports hall. At first he felt suspicious, but Taehyung only invited Megumi to see the basketball game from above so that it is not known by others.

Masahiro follows Taehyung as Megumi suddenly leaves the gym. The happiness mixed with sadness that he found. Megumi managed to smile back, but not from him but other people.

"Sensei.....!"

A soft girl voice sounded calling out to Masahiro. Then he turned around and stopped his steps.
