Break-in

                                    

                                          
"No, that won't work. I am busy. What else can I do for you, Tomohiro Ogawa and Yuji Nishida?" To be honest, he could not do anything for them. Tomohiro had just joined Yuji upon request and was now here. He did not even know why. The wind brushed his arms, making him shiver. 
Neo leaned against the doorframe, staring at Yuji, who's eyes were pried open and were seemingly scanning the old house. "Yuji, do you need something? Your eyes might fall out if you continue." Neo asked, scaring Yuji awake and back into reality. "What happened after the picture you sent Yūki?" It was a simple question. 
However, Neo did not act like it was so simple to answer. He straightened up and checked the hallway behind himself and the kitchen connected to it. In Tomohiros eyes, he looked anxious. He had known that Yuji had a certain intention and he had therefore decided to play along, but the funny thing about it was that Tomohiro was told just now why he was actually here. It surely didn't explain why the younger hadn't just asked Yuki or someone to join though. 
"Come inside. Sit down in the kitchen. Please be quiet, my grandma is sleeping in the room next to the kitchen." He led them to said kitchen, offering them chairs and something to drink which the two gladly accepted. After taking the first sip, Yuji looked up at Neo. He swayed the glass while holding eye contact. Neo gave in, staring at the table. "I do not know, Yuji. I swear to god. I drove Ran home after dinner, which was decent by the way. No idea what happened after that, but I feel like you are accusing me." "I am not, Neo. Just concerned." "I get that, I really do." "Is there something you remember? Did he talk about the situation with his friend?" 
Neo nodded, lifting his glass to his lips. "He did mention something about a person called 'Lo-' something. Their physical health drastically decreased and Ran said that he does not know how long his friend has left and therefore wanted to spent the time with him. I mean, I get it, but I still think that it is irresponsible." Tomohiro nodded which earned him a pinch to his left side.  
Yuji finished his glass, dragging the older up with him. "Thank you, Neo. I am glad I finally know what is going on." However, something unexpected happened when the two were about to leave.

While Yuji visited the toilet, Tomohiro stood in the hallway with Neo. It was awkward. 
"So" He started, forcing a smile. "How are you?" The younger laughed at that, answering regardless. "I am good, what about you?" "Fine. I am nervous because of the next match." The other waved off his concerned with a 'trust me, we will win this'. 
There was music playing in the background. "You like Star Wars?" Tomohiro asked. Judging by Neo's reaction he was shocked someone asked such a question. "Oh yeah, I love Star Wars with all my heart. Really. Mhm. What about you?" "I love it, especially the fifth one, it has to be the most breathtaking one. You?" "It is the same for me, I did not like the new ones though, they killed all of the original characters and destroyed every relationship." 
Tomohiro nodded enthusiastically, addressing the cute bears from the fifth part of the series along the way.

They had finally managed to strike up a decent conversation when Yuji decided to join in and disturb. "What is the same?" "I will tell you on the way. Let's go. I need to take a shower and something to eat. Bye, bye Neo, it was lovely talking to you! See you at practice today at 7pm!" Tomohiro shouted. After waving and the door had closed, they got inside of the older's car. The engine started. 
"What was the topic about? I am curious. Never would have expected you and him to talk." Yuji stated, Tomohiro side eyeing him. His eyes turned to the road as he started driving. Talking included, obviously. "Star Wars. He likes Star Wars." Yuji furrowed his brows. What a weirdly specific topic to talk about. "How come?" He asked, eyes not once leaving his teammate. "Well, music started playing in the background while you were on the toilet. I guess it was something like a ringtone or the TV turned on. I don't know. But that's how."
