My job? [That beauty store job was ages ago (and he got fired) and Hikaru definitely can't remember it at the moment.] You mean the social influencer thing I've been doing? It does keep me busy. Actually, I planned on taking pictures while we were at the arcade but you know, other than that, the fashion line was keeping me busy but whatever, I'll figure something out.
[Because he can't keep doing it without Kaoru and he sighs.]
Sorry, this is just my first time out since Kaoru left.
[Before Ken could say anything, he immediately close it back. At that moment, he gave a frown before lowering his head.]
I-I see, then all the better that we go and see what else the arcade has to offer right?
[He said before shifting his weight. He didn't know what to say other than to offer some kind of distraction after his twin left. Looking toward the side, he mumbled a little.]
[Hikaru sighs, annoyed. He hates what he sees as pity and after he's already cried and cried some more, he feels oddly defense. To no fault of Ken, who hasn't done anything.]
Yeah, me too. But what can I do? Not like I can go home or bring him back or anything. Or whatever. [Hikaru is very much the emotional type and with Kaoru gone, emotions high, Hikaru is having a hard time keeping it together.]
What's wrong with this place? Like why do people just come and go? Why didn't I go with him?
[At this moment, Ken wondered what his leader would say. While it sounded like Hikaru would need it, the problem was what she would say to cheer him up.
Or at least, make some meaningful comment,]
Because that's just how life is. People do come and go and you'll never know who it might be.
[Although, he looked at the ground before mumbling to himself. That probably wasn't the best thing to say but it sure sounded like what his leader would do.]
I think that's why it's so difficult to handle? [Did he do it right??]
How the hell am I supposed to just accept that? [Hikaru's never had to face something quite this difficult. A rich pampered boy isn't privy to most struggles a regular person is and this is one of the things for Hikaru that he's never had to handle.]
People leave us so I should accept Kaoru is gone? He's my twin. We're born together so we leave together, we...[He frowns and he knows it isn't like that. Life's not always that fair.]

But whatever happened to your job? Wouldn't that take your time?

We just stay together, okay? Until this place.
