Chapter 10: Regrets

                                    

                                          
Beep!
                          
Yamaguchi opened his phone and a bunch of notifications came all at once. 
                          
Morning Tadashi, just ate breakfast! Gonna go for a jog with my demon twin. - 5:00 AM
I bet you're still asleep right? I told you not to stay up too late 🙄 - 5:02 AM
Better eat a hearty meal before practice. And no, fries are not a substitute for breakfast. - 5:03 AM
Sorry, I sound like a mom. 🤣🤣🤣 - 5: 05AM

More like a husband. Yamaguchi thought to himself
                          
May not be able to text back later for a while, I need to rest more. I can't feel my legs... - 6: 00 AM
                          
It's 9:00 AM, and Osamu's account seems to be online now. Tadashi contemplates whether to text back or not. If he does text back, what will he say? A normal "Good morning" sounds a little dull and may make Osamu feel like he doesn't care about him. So he did the only appropriate thing to do.
                          
Call him.
                          
"SAMU! YOU'RE BOYFRIEND IS CALLING!" Atsumu shouted when he noticed his brother's phone ringing.  Osamu runs from his room, stumbling a little as he grabbed his phone to answer it as fast as he can. He even knocked his brother's burger on the floor. "YOU UGLY BITCH! MY BURGER!" Atsumu cried for the burger's fate.
                          
"SHUT UP!" Osamu yelled at his twin before answering the call and walked away. "Tadashi, what's up?" His tone immediately shifted to being gentle and sweet. 
                          
"I swear to God you're the worst simp ever," Atsumu said trying to clean up the mess. He can't help but tear a little seeing the cruelty of this world in full display. That and he really didn't want to go out buy another since his legs hurt from running too much. "Curse me for being too competitive!" 
                          
Suddenly, as Osamu talked with Tadashi, the gray-haired boy handed Atsumu his own burger that he hasn't touched yet. "No way, so they were actually in the Farm for harvesting kids, not an orphanage? That does sound like a good show!" Osamu turned to Atsumu, mouthing the words "Sorry" before continuing to talk with the freckled boy. "Sorry for the pause Tadashi, have to give my brother my burger. I know I know, I said sorry already."
                          
 "The heck was that?" Atsumu just stared at him twice before taking a bite of the burger. It looks like being a simp has its benefits.
                          
Osamu and Yamaguchi talked like the world were on pause. Their topics vary from anime, movies, comic books, food, alien conspiracy theories, basically anything but volleyball or sports.
                          
"And that's why I stay away from public toilets." Osamu continued. 
                          
Yamaguchi can feel his stomach hurt a little from all the laughing. "Oh my God! That poor Janitor!" 
                          
Suddenly Osamu's phone began ringing. An alarm was set to 11: 00 AM. As much as he wants to talk more he really needed to prepare for his job interview this afternoon. Good thing he set his alarm because when he talks with Tadashi, he forgets about the time, and being late is not a good impression on your interview. One time they talked for 5 hours straight. Would have gotten longer if their phone didn't die. 
                          
"Chat ya later Tadashi!" Osamu said as he stretches his arms out. 
                          
"Break a leg Samu-san!" Yamaguchi giggled. "I know you can do it!"
                          
"I know, I know. I love you." Osamu froze, covering his mouth with what he just said. Yamaguchi stopped moving as well, both of them were glad the other wasn't able to see how red they are right now. "I mean, I'm glad I have you!" What the fuck how is that any better!? "Uhhh... I... meant."
