****************************

After the day, Hide took over Toshi’s business, Hide seemed to have very good mood and busily adjusted himself and arranged thing in “his” companies. Ryu also had more privilege to go out alone as all bodyguards had to help Hide swept out the disobedient employees. Worried about Sugi's situation, Ryu sneaked out to see his lover but his every moves had never passed Hide's eagle eyes. However, Hide let Ryu go as he knew that Sugi couldn't be the thorn pick in his heart anymore. The red-headed just kept his watch in distance..

Ryu parked his Ferrari near Sugi's house. He knew couldn't enter through the front door so he went to the back gate. Yesterday he had called Sugi's cell phone. The pink-haired man answered wearily from the other side of the line. Ryu anxiously asked his lover about the news but Sugi just said he was alright but didn't want to talk about the matter and the line was cut off. Ryu tried to contact again but the line was busy. Ryu was very worry for the pink-haired made him escape from his maids (guards).

"Sugi-chan"

Sweet voice calling out the pink hair’s name hit Ryu’s ears. Ryu turned toward the direction from the other side of the wall.

He could see from the outside through the small damages on the broken bricks of the old wall. From that little views, he could see a figure with pink-haired standing in the wide garden.

Sugi was there!

Ryu's heart beat happily when he saw Sugi was still fine. But before he was going to call out his lover's name. He noticed the owner of that voice with long brown hair coming from the dark left side.

"Sugi-chan. Why do you standing here? It's getting cold"

Hyde asked while quickly flapped his eye's lashes. His cheek turned pink and looked more beautiful when he loose his hair.

Sugizo didn't answer and kept his look away from the small figure. He was thinking for sth. deeply in his mind.

"UH chewwww! " A high voice rising from Hyde as his thin pajama was not warm enough.

To Ryu's shock, Sugi turned and pulled Hyde close to him and covered the banker's son with his overcoat leather. Ryu stunned by the scene in front of his eyes.

He knew Hyde so well since were children when the relationship between Sugi’s family and his family was not as this bad.

When Yoshiki frequently had a tea party and invited their families, Sugi's, Hyde's, Ryu's and other well-to-do families into his beautiful rose garden.

And comparing with other rich children at his age, Hyde was very well-known for his arrogant behaviour as he was spoiled by his father. The brown hair only listened to his father. Anyway, not knowing the reason, one day in winter, Hyde suddenly changed from a spoiled child who thought he himself was superior than other to be like a little kitten when he was with the pink-haired boy.

From that moment, every one was surprised when Hyde showed that he adored Sugi much much than his handsome father.

Ryu knew that Hyde thought he was his love enemy but Ryu didn't care too much because he knew that in fact, Hyde was a very good-hearted person. If not saying about the love for Sugi, Ryu was certain that they two could be good friends. Many people fell in love with Hyde when seeing that doll-liked face and his angelic smile. He was very charming especially in his beautiful long hair. It made him look like a fallen angel on earth.

Ryu used to ask Sugi why he didn't choose Hyde. At that time, Ryu still remembered how angry and annoyed Sugi was. Sugi said how many times he had explained to Ryu that for him, Hyde was like a lil brother but for Ryu, the black haired one, the feeling was different. He only love Ryu and that was the first time they kissed, in Yoshiki’s garden.

So Ryuichi had never believed in anyone words when they were in the school about the gossip of Hyde and Sugizo. He trusted the pink-haired man. But today, in front of him, before his very eyes, he saw a flame burning in his heart. For one moment, he was jealous and angry with Sugizo's action. No..... Ryu thought. He didn't have a right to get angry. He couldn't think that Sugi lied him. Sugi had always been faithful.

"Sugi-chan..."

Ryu said to himself while still fixing his eyes on the two figures walking back to the big house.

"It's all my fault...not yours"

Tears ran down on his pale cheeks

"How can ..ou.love me.... when ..my..fa..her....destroyed you fam..ly"

Ryuichi closed his face on the cold wall sobbing bitterly.

* At hospital A *

A group of people was standing in the room with white wall waiting for the medical result. All of them, with depressed face, kept listening the blue-haired man standing in the center of the room. Besides the window, on a patient bed, laid a figure of a blond-haired man, sleeping or unconscious. His pulse was very stable and soft, almost stoped.

The pink-haired man put his arm around the shoulder of a crying woman standing in the center of the room while trying to concentrate on what the doctor explanation. Everyone's face was gloomy.

Hisashi, the blue-haired doctor, lifted his face up from the patient and told his listeners

"We've tried our best. We have used the latest method of curing but nothing gets better"

Hisashi said with a sad face for he knew Toshi's family so well and they were very close because his brother, Takuro, was Toshi's best friend.

Hearing the doctor words, the crying woman screamed loudly like she was getting mad and fell on the cold floor. Sugizo suddenly knelt down beside his mother holding her tightly to comfort her and brought her out to the doorway.

*Outside the room*

"Okaa-san, nothing to be worried, I'm sure otou-san will get better soon"

Sugizo tried to soothe his mother.

A long-haired woman looked back and spoke in bitterly voice. She held Sugi's hands firmly and squeezed them.

"My son, you must revenge them. Get away from that dead-walked body black hair. One day he'll destroy you"

Her voice was full of hatred.

"Okaa-san!!!! Don't call Ryu like that. You used to like him!"

"What!? Why do you protect him?" Her eyes were full of tears.

"I love him!"

"But his father is..!"

"OKAa-SAN!!!!"

"Son.... how could you say like this...I ..."

Tears were running down her make up cheek and fell on the cold hard floor.

Sugi's mother was great upset by her son's reaction. Her mouth twisted and her arms grabbed tightly on the left side of her chest.

"Okaa-san!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Sugi was extremely frightened.
