Hiroshi sat after exchanging pleasantries with his brother.
"You didn't come with Haruki?" Aki threw the question he had on his mind from the moment Hiroshi walked in.
"Yes, I guess he's too busy," Hiroshi said reaching for the menu already on the table.
He was ready to make his order but Aki remained silent watching him with eyes that held some information he could not decode.
"Won't you order?" Hiroshi had to ask when he was uncomfortable with the awkwardness.
"I'm waiting for someone else," Aki replied casually resting his back against the backrest.
Hiroshi eyes narrowed slightly before a small smile lifted the corners of his lips. "You've got yourself a new girlfriend, right?"
Seeing the hint of excitement in Hiroshi's eyes, Aki felt the urge to save some words and spilt them out without a thought, "He doesn't love me anymore, there's no way he could be my lover."
