Kazutora is having trouble sleeping...

Since living with Chifuyu, he sleeps well every night and the nightmares don't seem to haunt him anymore. But for some reason, he stayed up all night today, completely unable to sleep. In his heart was anxiously waiting for something, but Kazutora didn't know what he was expecting.

His eyes stared at the ceiling and thought about something...But he turned his body to the side, looking at someone's sleeping face. As if immersing in his beauty, he unconsciously poked his cheek and smiled lightly.

After a few months together, Kazutora discovers that Chifuyu has a bad habit. He has a habit of hugging people when he sleeps, specifically here holding his arm. Before, he had a pillow, but because the small bed was extra two people, Chifuyu patiently put the pillow in the closet. Since then, every time he sleeps, he unconsciously hugs his arm or hugs him too. At first he was bewildered and shocked, but later he got used to it. Kazutora was also comfortable with this bad habit of his, or frankly, he liked it. Chifuyu's hug always brings warmth to ease the cold in his heart, you are a warm ray of light illuminating the dregs of his life.

It was very cold at night, but it was very warm for Kazutora. His eyes were a little tired, he gently turned over and hugged him in his arms, slowly falling asleep.

"Huh ? Just me ?"

Kazutora was surprised to hear Chifuyu speak. The thing is, he can't go to the pet shop with him today because he has his own business and may not be back until the evening. When he heard it, he was so shocked that he dropped the spoon and choked on the rice, causing him to panic and rush to get water. Chifuyu patted him on the back with an apology. Kazutora didn't mind choking on the food but was concerned with another matter.

"Where is Chifuyu going? Do you need me to follow you?" He asked while holding a glass of water.

Chifuyu was washing dishes. He tilted his head slightly and replied, "Hmm, no. I can go alone."

His heart fluttered a little when he heard that he would leave the house alone. It reminded him of a haunting dream a few months ago, the one where he died on a rainy night. Kazutora looked at him with sad, worried eyes, then suddenly he clenched his fist with a troubled expression. Chifuyu was washing dishes while instructing the pet shop, he also obediently nodded when he heard it.

/ Wang/

A sudden sound pulled him out of his mind, and Kazutora stood up in shock. On the floor are now broken pieces, it seems that while washing the dishes Chifuyu accidentally slipped her hand and caused the porcelain plate to fall. He looked at it for a moment, then bent down to pick up the white shard with a sigh. He was startled by his actions and quickly left the place to intervene.

"Don't touch Chifuyu! You'll get hurt!"

He walked over to him, clutching someone's small hand. Panicked when he realized that Chifuyu had been stabbed, his fingers were dripping blood on the floor. He frowned slightly because of the pain, because he was careless earlier, so he was stabbed. Kazutora helped him up to the sink and carefully cleaned the wound. He slowly brought him into the room and told him to wait, while he ran to find the first aid kit.

Kazutora skillfully bandaged Chifuyu's wound. His actions surprised him a bit, because at home almost everything was done by him. Every time the big dead tiger finished bathing, he had to dry and brush his hair. At the end of each meal, Chifuyu washed dishes and dishes. Kazutora is at home just sitting still or looking after the house is fine. After he finished dressing the boy's wound, he got up and went downstairs, then carefully cleaned up the broken pieces of porcelain.

His hand picked up a piece of debris, but thought for a while, then put it in the trash bag, not forgetting to use a broom to sweep the small fragments. The mind also thinks at the same time: "Could it be...is this a bad omen?"

Chifuyu picked up his backpack, his hands were a little sore, but he still felt fine. He turned the doorknob to his room and walked down the stairs step by step. On the doorstep, he quickly put on socks and put his feet on his shoes, not forgetting to add a white hoodie. Checking everything was complete, he got up to leave with a smile and a wave of goodbye. Kazutora wanted to go together but he told him not to, so he obeyed. Even so, his heart was still restless, something was telling him that today was different from normal.

After feeding Peke J, he went up to his room and changed to prepare to go to the pet store. Kazutora carefully locked the door, checked the latch properly, and then left.

Walking to the pet store, he realized how long the road was. He didn't know if it was because of the long distance or because he didn't go with him anymore. As soon as the shop opened, the pets were screaming from hunger, and Kazutora quickly took the food bags and poured them into the bowls to feed them. Don't forget to take a broom to dust the shop and clean up the cat litter. The shop was pretty empty today, and there was no Chifuyu, so he felt really lonely and bored. He stretched out on the table, holding his picture in his hand, looked at it and sighed in frustration. The sky fell at noon and then turned into dusk, Kazutora diligently recorded today's operating expenses and cleaned the shop for a while. However, he checked everything again and then turned off the shop's lights.

Strolling down the street, he gazed at the orange sky in the afternoon. It turned out that without him, the road looked so quiet. There was no laughter, only the sound of leaves falling. There was no warm hand to hold when walking, no one to smile and pat his head. Kazutora rolled his eyes at everything, he was bored and melancholy and tiredly trudged back to the house.

Suddenly, he heard something...

An accident...

At a stone table and chair, there were a number of aunts and uncles gathered together to transmit something. Kazutora was passing by and overheard some content. As an accident, the injured person is a guy with black hair wearing a white hoodie, the victim was robbed and the perpetrator attacked the abdomen with a knife. As soon as he heard it, he felt a little guilty, the things he just heard seemed to have some similarities with the dream a few months ago. Kazutora hurriedly took out his phone, hurriedly looked up his number, and dialed.

Each beep rang, but they couldn't hang up. Suspicious of a bad omen, the hand involuntarily trembled. He didn't think, was about to rush home, when suddenly a hand pulled him back.

"Kazutora ?"

The familiar voice made his heart skip a beat. Kazutora trembled as he turned around to look, in front of his eyes was that dear little figure. The guy with black hair and blue eyes as beautiful as the sky and still the same outfit he wore in the morning when he left the house. He panicked and hugged him, Chifuyu was also a bit surprised by his actions, but he didn't say anything but only responded with a hug.

"What wrong, Kazutora ?"
He didn't respond, but hugged her tighter. However, Chifuyu had to pat his back until he calmly let go of him. The two of them walked hand in hand to go home before the sunset, the gentle breeze blowing through Chifuyu's hair. He asked while walking: "Are you calm? Did something happen?"

Kazutora looked at him and said nothing. Before, he was afraid that this was a dream, and punched himself with his fist, causing Chifuyu to panic. He was very afraid, afraid that he would disappear from this place.

He was a little annoyed when he didn't get the answer he wanted. Before, he also surprised him by acting like that, now he asked and didn't say. Seeing a bit of anger in Chifuyu's eyes, Kazutora was startled and awkwardly replied, "I...I thought you were in trouble?"
"I...heard that there was an accident. Then I called and she didn't pick up. So I..."

Kazutora loved him very much, but he didn't dare to say it because he was afraid that he would look down on him. He didn't dare to imagine the scene of the main road beside him, because someone like him really didn't deserve it. How can someone like him compare to a generous angel like you. Chifuyu is a good person, the world and the sky in his life, if he lost him, he didn't know how desperate he would be. Chifuyu who heard the answer showed a bit of bewilderment mixed with surprise, then he burst out laughing with a carefree expression.

"What a child, I really can't leave you alone, Kazutora."

"Kazutora, do you know what day it is today?" He smiled at him and asked.

He quickly took out his phone from his jacket pocket, looked at the date displayed on the screen, and replied, "It's September 16...it's my birthday..."

Since when did birthdays no longer matter in Kazutora's life. When he was a child, he used to be very excited on that day, but the response to that expectation was only sadness and disappointment. His parents could neither remember nor care, his friends used him as a commodity. By the time he entered the re-education camp after Baji's death, he seemed to have forgotten the presence of this great day.

Noticing the sadness in his eyes, Chifuyu said softly, "This year I will celebrate your birthday with you."

Kazutora was startled to hear him say that, then said, "H-huh"

Seeing that he was a bit surprised, he smiled and replied: "Look, don't tell me you forgot your happy day ?"

Chifuyu raised his other hand, he was holding a birthday cake carefully wrapped in a very cute and lovely box. Chifuyu innocently showed it to him with a bright smile, he said he did it. The reason he was absent today was because of this cake, Chifuyu went to Mitsuya's house and made it there. He said it wasn't as pretty as it was in the store for the first time, but he thought it would suit him. If it were at home right now, Kazutora would have cried tears of happiness on his face. Because for the first time in his life, someone remembered his birthday and welcomed and celebrated with him.

Actually now in his heart he feels very happy and satisfied when he is next to Chifuyu, he feels very warm and peaceful.

"WOW !!!"

Kazutora made a surprised expression as the cake was opened and placed on the table. He marveled at its beauty. The cake is medium-sized, the cream is quite smooth, beautifully decorated, in the middle is a lovely yellow tiger with the words "Happy birthday Hanemiya Kazutora". He was surprised, Chifuyu said that this was the first time he did it himself, so it was not beautiful, but to him, this was a masterpiece. Five times to seven times, he took his phone to take pictures and then burst out laughing.

Chifuyu looked at him like a child. He laughed and turned to prepare food for a small party in the house. Kazutora also couldn't bear to see Chifuyu struggling alone, so he went over to help him. The two cook and eat together, then laugh together.

"Ah!!! So full!!!" The big tiger with a full stomach was lying on the floor, his face clearly satisfied.

When Chifuyu saw him happy, he was also happy in his heart. After cleaning the kitchen, he carefully dried his hands and walked over to the backpack. Clever hands opened the backpack's lock and then slowly took out a very cute little stuffed tiger. River, Chifuyu stepped in front of him and gave it to him. Kazutora hugged the plush tiger tightly, he innocently rubbed his cheek against the stuffed animal. Chifuyu laughed and told him to stand up and follow her. Kazutora didn't understand what he wanted to say but obediently sat up and walked over to him. Chifuyu took his hand and opened the door.
In front of them is the KH400.

Kazutora was overjoyed, his legs leaping to hug the carriage. He brought his own tiger eyes to its tail, he even sat in the car and turned the key on the throttle. Inside he was now burning with joy, he happily laughed. Chifuyu leaned against the wall and gave him affectionate eyes and a small smile. That smile accidentally caught the other's eyes, causing the other person to suddenly startle and then turn away. Kazutora's earlobes were completely red right now, his body was still burning with the happiness he brought him.

"Chifuyu, wanna take a spin?" Kazutora looked at him and forced a word.

Chifuyu agreed without hesitation. He quickly walked over to him and sat in the back of the car, he saw that he was seated, then started the engine and both left. Ice and ice on the familiar deserted road, the two happily enjoyed the cool feeling of the wind. Suddenly, Kazutora suddenly revved up the gas, causing him to bounce back from his inertia and hug him tightly. The two stood still for a long time, Chifuyu said nothing but silently hugged his waist. Kazutora didn't know if his actions were out of fear but he was very happy.

"Chifuyu, where do you want to go ?"

Chifuyu rested his head on the man's back, he said to himself, "We can go anywhere, as long as we're happy."

That year's birthday was not sad, because at that time I had you...
