The kitchen had a small table with two chairs on either side along with a medium sized fridge that was usually half empty. It was probably the most unused quarter in the apartment. He bought a three person meal set with spoons and forks just in case, but he used it so little that he often had to wash the plates before hand to make sure the food wouldn't be set on dusty plates. The pantry was empty save for a box of cereals past its expiration date but hadn't even been opened yet.His bedroom was just as scantily clad. The bed was a decent, comfortable size for two people if neither moved too much during sleep. Like his curtains, it came with a dark navy color theme to it. Navy sheets, navy comforter, navy pillowcase, etc. etc. The work desk where his laptop and external hard drives were stacked was positioned against a wall, near the window where sunlight could illuminate the surface. It had several drawers beneath it, and the bottom most drawer had a false bottom.It was in that secret compartment that Takaba kept proof of his past existence: his real passport, his real identification card, two pictures, one with his family, another with his two best friends. His friends… I wonder if they remember me even… His parents didn't know where he was either. If he died now, woke up cold and lifeless the next morning, would he be buried in Japan or be cremated here, an unclaimed body diminished to ashes. His secret would be revealed then, wouldn't it?And the gun.Enough.Next to the desk, there was a bookshelf containing books on… photography. Not much surprise there. There was a night stand to one side of the bed with a lamp that was fitted with a light bulb needing to be replaced; he had bought the wrong watt two weeks ago and it was just too dim.His closet was half empty, a reflection of his inner state. His general style and taste hadn't changed much over the course of two years. If anything, they were even more casual and geared toward comfort and movement; his travels had taught him that. He still wore his t-shirts, his vintage jeans, and his hooded sweatshirts with pouches where he hid his hands. And most of the time, his feet were clad with a pair of running shoes or something along those lines. Comfort and movement.But with the first chance he got, he had thrown out all of his old clothes he had brought over from Japan. Dumped them into a large cardboard box, sealed it with masking tape, and out the door they went. It had nothing to do with physical capability. He could physically still wear them.It was the smell. The scent. The aroma.The fragrance.It was like incense, a drug that induced and triggered memories and images he would rather did say that olfactory memory was the strongest and most enduring of all, didn't they?There were two sets of suits in the closet, one black and the other dark grey. He had bought them for random occasions and still considered them a waste of money. Putting on these suits, these formal attires only reminded him of him. The cuff links. The buttons. The tie.The tie especially. Takaba could envision those strong, forceful hands, those expert hands snaking through the silky texture. Working their way past the collar. Tearing apart buttons. Brushing against his stomach. Down. Down. Past the belt, past th-Shut up.Takaba lowered himself onto the mattress, settling in motionlessly into the plush comforter. He hadn't been on his bed for almost a week, and it was just… nice to feel the same texture beneath his fingers. But on the other hand, what he had dreaded was true.There was no heat in this bed.Just him.And him alone.And those… wretched… awful… neon stars on the ceiling. One of them had fallen off while he was gone, near the pillow.Did you miss me? He picked it up and held over him.He lay down completely, his back against the bed, an arm over his eyes. Gyles had literally forbidden him to go home alone (upon hearing that Takaba almost got hit by a taxi), giving him two choices. Either he took Takaba home or Takaba would wait to go home with him.Takaba didn't really want to make Gyles leave the gallery and opted to stay. People didn't realize that they were whispering with the photographer right behind their back. It was a cunning little advantage, and he had been able to pick up a handful of good constructive criticism.Mặc dù ông đã phải thừa nhận, một số ý kiến ông đã nghe có thực sự... đau. Từ như "non" hoặc "không rõ" cảm thấy như cổ phần đi qua mặt sau của bàn tay của mình, severing dây chằng của ngón tay chỉ mục của ông ép xuống trên nút shutter phát hành. Ông sẽ phải sống với những lời chỉ trích như vậy Tuy nhiên... phê bình là cái gì đó mỗi nghệ sĩ đã phải đi qua, cho dù đó là âm nhạc hoặc nghệ thuật hoặc văn học, và đó là cuộc sống ông đã chọn.Và ông đã có những thứ khác vào tâm trí của mình: ông Carthen cung cấp. Gyles đã nhận ra điều gì đó trong Takaba; ông đã nhận ra rằng người yêu của mình không phải là định canh định cư, mà nếu cuộc sống của mình ở London không phải là nhanh nhịp độ đủ, nó sẽ lái xe Akihito điên. Ông sẽ kết thúc săn bắn cho các thrills và nguy hiểm như trước. Nếu Gyles đã sẵn sàng để làm cho sửa đổi, Hy sinh 6 tháng vì lợi ích của phục hồi của người yêu của mình, sau đó Takaba nên ít sự hiểu biết và biết ơn chấp nhận Gyles' kế hoạch... không nên ông? Đó là có thể an toàn hơn, như ông Carthen đã nói, để chuyến lưu diễn Europe so với chiến tranh rách khu vực nơi ông thức dậy mỗi ngày khác để những âm thanh của vụ nổ.Nhưng ông không muốn để lại.Bạn đang phát triển tự mãn, Akihito...Takaba chôn cất mũi của mình vào gối và hít vào một lungful Gyles' cologne.Vì vậy nếu tôi là nội dung... nhưng...Ông đã mất Asami? Là đó buồng riêng ông đã dành cho mình trước... người yêu... được thực hiện trên hiện diện áp đảo Gyles'?Và vì vậy, nếu nó là...Ông propped lên đầu với khuỷu tay phải của mình, để cho phần còn lại cánh tay bị thương đối với cơ thể của mình. Nó đã bắt đầu để chữa bệnh khá tốt, ngoại trừ một dòng vảy mỏng puckered. Một vết sẹo để thêm vào bộ sưu tập của mình. Gyles đã không quá hạnh phúc về nó mặc dù. Trớ trêu thay, những người đàn ông đổ lỗi cho chính mình cho nó.Gyles...Nếu Takaba đã không được như vậy bận tâm trước đó, và ngay cả khi ông, Gyles vẫn là những người yêu hoàn hảo mà bất cứ ai có thể yêu cầu. Ông đã có sự kiên nhẫn không giới hạn đối với người yêu của mình gặp rắc rối.Làm thế nào để bạn đặt với tôi...Thậm chí ông lớn của ông rất tự đôi khi. Cho ai đó đứng bên cạnh anh ta với cống hiến như vậy...
