"You're the moon that glows in the sky,
Lighting up the world when it's blue."
From the moment Sako Kōta met Hiiragi Tōma, it felt like his world had been reformed completely. HE was the moon that glowed in the sky, lighting up his world when it's blue.
Meeting him was a blessing gifted to Sako, and one which he'll cherish forever and ever— He shall embrace the blooming fire blessed upon him in the freezing cold.
'Teach me.. how to fight.'
"Oh no, I never thought I'd get this close to someone so divine."
You were so strong back then, It made me feel so overly proud of myself. Being able to walk behind you probably made me the luckiest guy alive— just by meeting you on that faithful day already felt like I had good fortune.
"Stars they dance, though late in the night Don’t you know they dance just for you?"
As I stared at the darkness of the night, peaking through as soon as the sun begins to set below in the horizon— the moon and stars begin to appear, revealing the beauty of the night sky. Seeing the majestic sky reminded me of you, Hiiragi Tōma.
You've given me inspiration to continue this wretched life,
You've shown me that the world isn't cruel.
I want to stay with you forever, I'll do anything it takes to help you reach the top— just please, keep on being my motivation.
"You gave me one look and now I can’t get my mind off of you. And it’s all because I see the galaxies when I look in your eyes."
The more that I lock contact with your beautiful eyes, the more my feelings deepen with every memory I've shared with you. No words can describe how much your eyes look ethereal— how they pretty much match with the total image of you. No wonder why you kept attracting people, just look at yourself?
Why would I wait for dusk to fall to see the beauty of the night sky, when I've already got you?
Here I am, just another boy
trying to find for the words to employ
to adore the God of War
Ohh, you've got me in a daze
No, It's not another phase.
"Aphrodite, could you, could you please be mine?"
My Universe, could I perhaps call you mine? Is there a small possibility that a breath-taking person like you maybe take a chance with me?
I've always shrugged it off as admiration, but as we spend more time together— I slowly realized that I was inlove with you this whole time. Everything about you makes me daze, the way how you do everything so effortlessly and the way you stare at me so innocently. I've never fallen inlove before, and I have always despised the idea of going "head over heels" over someone— but I wouldn't mind being head over heels for you.
I'll always follow you, forever.
..
'Hey Sako? You shouldn't follow me anymore.'
What? Am I hearing things right?
This is just a mistake.. right?
'— I'm not gonna become the top anymore.'
'You gotta find a new goal.. for yourself'
なぜですか？
I looked up to you, Hiiragi Tōma. I loved you.
You were supposed to be the top at furin, I was supposed to help you reach that goal— I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE YOUR RIGHT HAND MAN.
Why, God? I cherished this blessing you have gave me, but why did you take away my one and only inspiration? Why have you gifted me this blooming fire, only for it to extinguish, leaving me all alone in this cold blizzard.
Maybe this was a sign, I should've never fallen inlove with you— but I couldn't resist the beauty that was with me up until this moment. Please, stay with my Hiragi, I'll do anything— just don't leave me.
I need to get stronger.
He left me because I was weak, and that Umemiya guy was strong.
I'll show him, I'm not the small kid that used he used to teach before.
I will never ever fall inlove again.
'All I want to do is to fight people who are strong.'
Shishitoren was devotees of power, but who gives a crap about that? All I want to do is to defeat every strong person there and show HIM that he's wrong— I'll make him regret everything that he's done.
..
How many months have passed ever since their last interaction? Heck, did he even atleast think about what I've been doing this past few months, or is he busy with that Umemiya guy and Furin? You've been willingly blinded by them, and that's not the Hiragi I know.
I'll defeat you once and for all in this battle between Shishitoren and Bofurin, Bishamonten.
'I can't lose, THERES NO WAY I'M LOSING TO SOMEONE WHO WILLINGLY BOWS TO SOMEONE ELSE!!'
'Sako.. I'm sorry for not becoming what you wanted me to be.'
Those words hit me like a rock. Not only were my efforts and training went down the hill— that one sentence turned my whole entire purpose upside down. Everything hurts from the fight, but why does those words hurt me more?
I knew from the bottom of my heart that you were just trying to be considerate, but.. I never really wanted you to say that to me. I know I'm being selfish, but you have always been my inspiration in this life.
I never wanted to admit it, but I just to hear you say 'come with me.' Maybe, just maybe everything wouldn't hurt as much as that one unfortunate day.
..
I didn't want to face him after the fight, I just wanted to go home and sulk in my room for hours— Hell, I don't even wanna move from this spot where Hiragi placed me. Everything went by so fast, Shishitoren lost the battle and now they're feasting with Furin? Well, good for them.
Now that I've lost, Shishitoren has no purpose to me anymore. The devotees of power have been overpowered by the infamous school of Makochi— what a joke. When I leave, I should just lie low and just buy those strawberry shortcakes I've been eyeing for a long time huh?—
Oh Hiiragi Tōma, you've drastically changed my life so much.
If only we could have a talk.. If only I could walk up to you after everything and say,
"I'm sorry for everything, and thank you for being the victim of my shallow emotions."
