"Riku? You haven't sleep?? it's already late"said Tenn who just awake because of Riku hasn't sleep yet.
"I will go to sleep soon,i just can't sleep yet so i wanna do something in study."said Riku.
"Do you want my help?"Tenn ask.
"Noo noo..you don't have too! I'm fine with is..So Tenn-nii can get enough rest"said Riku.
"Riku, don't force yourself.. you the one who should get enough sleep"said Tenn.
"..i know but Tenn-nii,please..just go to sleep,i will go to bed after i finish this.."said Riku.
"Okay,if you say that.Don't to late"said Tenn.
"Okay!! thanks Tenn-nii.Goodnight."said Riku.
-----------------
Next morning at school.
"Ehh?? Riri didn't come today?"Ritsu ask.
"Well,he just fell asleep at early morning.So if i waking him and go to school,he might get morning attack.So i let him sleep.My mom already tell Reika-sensei and Principal.So it's fine."said Tenn.
"Woa,what did Riku do for the whole night?"Ritsu ask.
"I don't know,he keep saying he did something in study and didn't need my help.But he look so passionate for that.."said Tenn as what he see Riku yesterday.
"That's must be something that Riku-kun want to do."said Sarah.
"I don't know,so my mom told me to let Riku sleep and take off day for today."said Tenn.
"Let's get ready for today's game.Futaka said be want to discuss about the volleyball game."said Ritsu.
"Let's go!!"said Sarah.
They take their class like usuals and asking about why Riku absent today.Illiah about to go delivering the assignment to the teachers room in the same time she almost bump into Tako.
"I heard that kid absent today."
"Yeah...but the plan trap got taken away by someone..."
"Shesh... that's kid really like to absent all time.Didn't other teacher start to questioning his attendance? Oh wait,maybe he actually to lazy go to school so he using his illness for an excuse absent."said Tako.
"Maybe you should talk to principle because..why when the other student absent,they take action about that when it's come to that brats,he didn't get scold or anything like us or other student?"
"You were right,if i open this topic to my father,i guess he can eliminate that brats away from here and I can get my place back"said Tako.
Illiah were shock while hearing the conversation and immediately record everything she need as evidence.
__________________
"Hohohoho finally that the last one!!",Ritsu sighing after done everything today.
"But the game going so smooth without any trap from Tako.."said Sarah.
"Because someone already get rid of their plan."said Illiah.
"What do you mean Lia?"Ritsu ask.
Illiah tell them everything she's know what she heard Tako's conversation.They were shock in the same time their were glad nothing happen on the game because Tako didn't take a part.He just don't join the game because Riku wasn't there.
".. I'm just curious about something."said Sarah and everyone look at them.
"What are you curious about?"Illiah ask.
"Well,why Tako only target Riku-kun..why he hate Riku-kun that much?? Riku-kun didn't do anything toward him..but why he really really hate Riku-kun?..."Sarah ask.
"That's the think i wanna know about it.."said Tenn and look up the sky."Riku never made people have feeling hatred on him..even my parent never complaining about Riku's health problem...or anything else.Every of our guest who come to our theater always love Riku..and show their love toward Riku."said Tenn.
"Well,Riku is special person..but the special one always had side things that he can't stand alone....i mean, don't ever leave from his side.He didn't ask more,he just want to feel someone staying by his side."said Illiah.
Tenn feel something crack inside him as he were touched by Illiah's speech.As he know about Illiah back ground, Illiah's parent left her alone at the orphanage house.But someone took her and got adopted by lovely family.So now Illiah never show her weak side.
"That's not unusual Lia for saying something like this."said Ritsu
"Just shut up!"said Illiah.
Tenn just smiling while watching them playing at each other meanwhile he worry at Riku who was at home.He just afraid if Riku got down for not waking him up before go to school.
"Anyway,Tenn-kun,can we visit Riku?..if you don't mind...i mean your parent."said Sarah while her finger fidgeting.
"Ahhh i want to join too!"said Ritsu
"Sure, because today our parent close their theater for today.Maybe it's fine for today to have visit Riku."said Tenn.
"Then how about you Illiah? Do you want to join us?"Ritsu ask.
"Well,i have another plan with my brother..maybe next time? Just send my get well soon to Riku.Then goodbye guys! I have to go."said Illiah and leaving.
"Illiah really happy with her new family right?.."said Sarah.
"That's good for her."said Ritsu while smiling."Then, let's go to see Riku!!"said Ritsu.Everyone nodded and heading to Nanase's House.
-----------------------
"Oh,you guys here,well..Riku hasn't awake since morning."said Miyou.
"HAH!!!???"Tenn were supprise.
"Yeah,but it's fine,the doctor already comfirm it was his narcolepsy..so maybe Riku about to sleep but his narcolepsy come in the right time.So he haven't awake yet."said Miyou.
"Aww..i thought Ri-chan already awake...hmm"said Ritsu as he disappointed.
"Hahahaha,how about have dinner here.I will let your parent know about it.And you too Sarah-chan.."said Miyou while smile.Sarah were shy when Miyou give her smile toward Sarah because Sarah rarely got that face from his parent.
"Okay..thanks for inviting us.."said Sarah and enter the house politely together with Ritsu.
"Riku hasn't wake up yet?...I-i..afraid if he blame himself if he knew about he didn't go to school.."said Tenn.
"Remember, Riku will forget anything before he narcolepsy..maybe he didn't realize anything?.."said Miyou.
"But mom,Riku always write his diary Right?..he must be checking his diary to know what happen before that."said Tenn.
"You were right but,we can't do anything if that..we just have to give him support and stay beside him.All he need is us."said Miyou while caressing Tenn's shoulder.
"mom's right...all we need is stay with him..."said Tenn.
"anyway,call Sarah-chan and Ritsu can stay at your room meawhile i prepare the dinner for us "said Miyou.
"Do you ne-"
"don't worry dear,i can do it.You just have to stay with them okay?"said Miyou.
__________________________________________
"Your mom are so kind Tenn-kun...i really envy you...."said Sarah.
"i almost forgot that Sarah's parent mostly at outside country for work.She and only her brother Kazuya staying together.Sarah being independent by her self since she was child."said Tenn alone in his mind.
"Tenn-nii?Sarah-chan? and..Ritsu here too?"said Riku who standing behind them.
"Ohh Riku-kun....you just awake....are you okay?you shouldn't be here.."said Sarah.
"i am fine,i realize that i must got narcolepsy early morning right after Tenn-nii gone sleep.."said Riku with spontaneous.
"Early morning...",Tenn mumble alone.
"why Tenn-nii?you look very surprise?? ahhh don't tell me i am out for a few days??"Riku almost panic when he thinking about that.
"No no no..i was just shock that you saying you have narcolepsy at early morning after I'm sleep right..you are completely right.."said Tenn as he was shaking Riku's shoulder as he was happy for Riku.
"I'm happy when i see Tenn-nii happy.."said Riku while smile.
They know,Tenn should be the one who feel so happy about Riku.Riku still in confuse but only Join Tenn's happiness for something he didn't know.
----------------
Tenn Tell Miyou about Riku and Miyou just proud at Riku.Miyou still prepare the dinner.She just done call Sarah's and Ritsu parent.
"Anyway,Ritsu-chan,your mom said,they will be back late,so you can stay here night."said Miyou.Ritsu so excited.He always sometimes sleep together with Nanase's family when Ritsu parent busy with work.

"Okay..."said Sarah.Miyou smiling and lay her hand on Sarahs'.
"I already told your brother that you can stay here night and going school together tomorrow with Riku and Ritsu-chan."said Miyou.
"Really?..my brother allow it?"Sarah ask.
"Yes,he allow it.So we have guest room that Riku always use for study room but Riku and Tenn share room.You can use that.I will ask Riku to lead you there."said Miyou.Sarah were smiling and hug Miyou.
"Thank you Aunty..i really appreciate it."said Sarah.
Tenn just lay against the wall when he see his mother with Sarah.Miyou told Riku to get shower then Ritsu.While that, Sarah and Tenn helping Miyou prepare the dinner.Not long after that,his father just home with a few documents from their theater.Miyou welcoming him and serve him for while.
After everything was set up,all of them start to digging their dinner meal together with happy.The scene was to happy and made it so first time for Sarah.She actually never feel this feeling with her parent because they are rarely have dinner together with them.Sometime she feel so lonely because also her brother are always staying at his bedroom and back late from school.Sarah just got emotional for that.
"Sarah? Are you okay? Why you crying?"Riku ask.Miyou and Tenn notice that Sarah being weird but they let Riku handle it first.
"Ahh.. nothing.. it's just remembering a simple things.."said Sarah while wipe his tears.
"Simple things? Why?"Riku ask as he getting more curious.
"Dear Riku,can you help me get the drinks from the small box."said Miyou.Riku nodded but Tenn about to offer himself but Miyou hold Tenn.
"Miyou-san,you don't have to do that..i am fine.."said Sarah.
"Sarah-chan,you can come here whenever you want.I am fine with it."said Miyou with smile.
"..is that really fine?.."Sarah ask as she was shock with Miyou's word.
"yeah,it's really fine.Just come here if you have any problem or need some.."said Nishi.
"Sarah will come here because she will have fight with Kazuya-san about Kazuya-san didn't come home for her birthday on next month.But..that will make me worry about it..."said Tenn's mind.

"Yeah right,it's actually my room alone,but suddenly one day,Tenn-nii want to share room with me so i move to his room and sleep together."said Riku."We always play together and hide-seek..sometime i got scold by Tenn-nii for hidding at the dangerous place that can trigger my condition.And now,this room change a lot..i don't remember since when this room become like this..maybe at the day i was in coma.."
"Ahh,Tenn-kun must be love you so much...He never leave from your side and always worry for you everyday..He really care for you..even the day of your coma,i always saw Tenn-kun."said Sarah.

They continue their talk until their class.In the same time,Tako's friend saw Riku and immediately tell Tako about Riku coming today.They already know that today is Riku's duty turn.So go to hidden place to discuss more about how they want to bully Riku.
On their second period,Iruka whisper to Tenn about what he heard from the footage that they already set the small camera there.
"Tako set something at the locker because they knew about Riku's duty today..."said Iruka.
"why he never learn about it...Iruka,please take over Riku's duty today?"said Tenn.

________________________________
Tenn,Ritsu and Futaka just arrive at the teacher's room.They heading to Reika's room first as soon as they there after put the paper at the locker.
"Reika-sensei,"said Futaka.
"oh you guys here,..here the video i got."said Reika and showing them the video.
All of them watch the video and listen everything that Tako plan.
"i finally recognize who is he.."said Reika as she look at Tako.
"Because he is son of rich family?"said Ritsu
"no,but actually Tako is the youngest son at Ushio's family."said Reika.
"what do you mean by not the youngest son at Ushio's family???"Futaka ask because he was shock ,same like Tenn and Ritsu too.
"Tako just a adopted child...Ushio's family are working under Tako's adoptedd father.Something happen to Ushio's family,the real father of Tako died because of his adopted father accidentally made mistake to Ushio's family.But at that time,Tako still baby and didn't know anything about his real father.So his adopted father feeling guilty toward their death.So they decide to take care of Tako and raise them."said Reika.
"So Tako's real last name actually Ushio...Ushio Yaitako..not Ueyonami Yaitako...how did Reika-sensei knew about Tako?"Ritsu ask.
"because,his not related brother is my ex boyfriend.."said Reika.Everyone were stop and feel sorry toward Reika.
"can we ask what happen to him?"Tenn ask gently.
"Sure,it's already past,so it's fine for me to tell you guys the story.."said Reika with a smile."Well our family are working under Ueyonami's family.My mother work as their maid and i still a child and live together with my only mother.So my mom doesn't have any other choice but have to take the offer to live here with Ueyonami family.Then one day,when i start high school,there the eldest boy just home and greet Mr Ueyonami.He was treat me and my mother with so polite.I was thought he is new worker who working his Mr Ueyonami.So i have to take care of my action and attitude.But without knowing,we were share the same class too...then when teacher call his last name 'Ueyonami',i just learn that he was the first son of Ueyonami's family...So everyday and until we finish our high school,we still stay together without get caught by his father."
"Both of you actually already fell in love with each other right?"said Tenn.
"Yes,you right Tenn-kun..we thought at first,our love will stay forever..but...yes..something like that..made me almost give up in my life.Well it's already past and i don't want to mention it..but the detail i knew about Yaitako he was a spoiled kid by that family,so he can ask what ever he want and will get granted by his adopted father.So we have to careful for it."said Reika.
"...but,sorry if this bother you sensei,but you must already know how Tako's attitude right?"said Tenn while caressing his chin.
"Well,Tako are not a boy who will harm anyone when we live together.I never knew that he will do something that put Riku-kun in danger."said Reika.
"He just have those bad manner and do something bad to Ri-chan"said Ritsu.
"Yup,now,we have to set plan to made sure to make Tako's plan fail."said Futaka.
"He plan to hurt Riku on our next match..it's badminton match...he is not our opponent but he want to eliminate our friend to pull out Riku take a part in match."said Tenn.
"He will start set the trap...let's discuss about this with other."said Futaka.
"Guys,...can you guys listen this...i am not listen the wrong things right?..."said Ritsu then show the video with Tako's audio.All of them were shock and didn't expect that.
__________________________________
After done all the period school.
"Riku,Reika-sensei want you to be at her room now."said Illiah.
"Oh okay,i will be there soon,thanks for letting me know."said Riku while smile at them.
"And,Waruto,can you accompany Nanase to Reika's room?Because i just afraid if anything happen to Riku while way to Reika-sensei's room."said Futaka.
"..ah..but Nanase can do it by himself plus he look so healthy"said Waruto.
"yes,Waruto-san were right..i am fine to go by myself."said Riku.
"No,you can't go alone,please Waruto,accompany Riku to Reika-sensei's room."said Ritsu while begging to him.Waruto finally give up and company Riku to the Reika's room.
Once Waruto and Riku leave,they start to gather around,
"why you guys force Waruto go with Riku?"Illiah ask.
"well,let's meet at Nanase's cafe theater after this..and made sure not let Waruto knew about this."said Futaka.Everyone nodded.
_______________________________________
At the Nanase's cafe theater,
"everyone already here?"Futaka ask.
"Tenn-kun and Riku-kun wasn't here yet."said Sarah.
"Well,Tenn will send Riku to their house first and he will be here right after that."said Futaka.
"Why you didn't want Waruto know about our meeting?"Illiah ask as she was curios.
"i am sorry Lia but we have to put Waruto away from this."said Futaka.
"But why? you guys haven't explain to us why?"Illiah ask as she about to lash at Futaka.
"Illiah,you have to calm down,they must have their reason why they call us here and not let Waruto know about this.All us know that Waruto is your only cousin that know you and stay with you until today..but let just wait what they want to talk about."said Iruka.
Illiah actually trust at Waruto with all of her heart because Waruto was the only relative that still stay with Illiah.
"I am sorry for late,"said Tenn who just arrive.
"Nope,you just come the right time"said Akari.
"okay,now tell me why you summon us here?"Illiah ask.
"Illia-"Futaka about to yell at Illiah but Tenn stop him first.
"First of all,this is for making you guys understand the situation,watch and listen this video."said Tenn as soon as Ritsu take out his laptop and show to them.
"What is their next plan?why Riku isn't do his duty today?Today he should do his duty right?You told me that before..then the trap that i set for that brats but seems like he didn't get into the trap..why?"-Tako
"I don't know anything about it..It's true today is his duty but their friend suddenly voluntee to take over his work."-Waruto.
"huh..that brats..i risk everything to bait him but everything fail."-Tako
"Then how about take out their classmate so we can pull out Nanase to take part for the badminton match."
"Yes..that would be nice.Nice plan,but i just curios,why you tell me everything about what their doing but everything was fail Nao Waruto..."-Tako.
"I don't know,but as long as you insert Illiah into your plan to eliminate my classmate,i'm fine with it."
Illiah was speechless and just freeze there,Mia and Sarah try to comforting her.Mia hug her and Sarah caress her hand.Illiah's tears start to fell from her cheeks.Iruka punch the table when he see Illiah were hurt by a boy that hurt her.She put everything and her trust toward Waruto but what she got was broken heart.She don't want to remind everything about how her parent leave her.Tenn already know this would make Illiah hurt.Without hesitate,Tenn hug Iliiah and rub her back.
"Listen to me Illiah,i know,your mind saying that you shouldn't have believe in anyone right?"said Tenn and Illiah look into Tenn's eyes meanwhile the other were shock with how Tenn comforting Illiah like that."Then,you shouldn't have believe in anyone right now.Even us or anyone else..but the most immportant is,you should believe in yourself first then you can know how to use your trust to anyone.I know,i really know it's hard for you.Even me,Riku actually didn't trust me too."Illiah look at Tenn again when Tenn mention about Riku's trust.
"why would Riku not trust you when both of you two are so close...and Rikuu look so-"
"I know,we were born from the same place and i know everyything about Riku.As we already know about Riku's 3 years coma,he still can't stop thinking about that.He still believe that i was held back because of him even the truth is not true.He still think that i lie to him about it..but i didn't care about it as long as Riku will believe himself and me as long as i still alive,i will stand by his side no matter what.Erase everything negative though inside his mind.As brother i will be there for him and theirs go same for you too,i am here for you if you think that you regret for believe anyone.Just try on yourself then us"said Tenn.
"Tenn sure mature at this than us.."said Iruka to Futaka.
"..."Illiah look down as she was feel shame In front of Tenn.
"Tenn-kun were right...you can't trust anyone,just try to find some space for you to try again with us.I am here for you too Illiah-chan."said Sarah while holding her hand with smile.
Illiah burst into tears and crying so hard.Everyone come to her and comfort him.
After Illiah calm down,they start their discussion again to made a new plan to avoid everything from Tako.
______________________________________
At Nanase's house,"Now you understand this subject right?"Illiah ask Riku.
"Yes,i understand everything here.Thanks for your help Illiah.."said Riku while smile.
"Illiah-chan really good at this subject...thanks for the sharing"said Sarah.
"hahahahah it's really nothing,i just want to help if i can."said Illiah while blushing.All of them laughing together.
"Oh you guys are here,i though you guys at your room"said Nishi who just arrive from work.
"Ahhh dad!! welcome home!! we actually study together since the exam around the corner right after the sport event."said Riku.
"That's good,since you guys here,let have dinner together.I brought some food"said Nishi.
"Thank you very mush Mr Nanase."said Illiah.
So everyone go to the living room and help Tenn arrange the plate together.Illiah and Sarah help Miyou cut the sweet fruit as dessert.They have dinner together with happy and laughter.Tenn were smiling by himself when he sees everyone were enjoying their dinner together especially Riku.He glad that Riku are still smiling there and safe there.
_____________________________________
Once they finish their dinner and already been cleaned,Miyou ask Illiah to stay night since it's already late but Illiah refuse it and better go home because she will made her adopted parent worry at her.So Miyou decide to send Illiah home.Illiah smile and thank to Miyou for send her.Riku already fell asleep because of Tenn told him to get sleep early before his attack acting worst at night.
With the cold wind night and beautiful moon and stars up the sky.
"Aunty Miyou,..can i ask something?"Illiah start to ask with her curious face.
"Yes..sure..what it is.."
"about..Tenn and Riku..."
