Episode 4: Memories

It was then I realized that I want to help Light. I am not sure why I felt guilty about what happen to his family but I just want to ease his pain.

"Light, I know that you have problems with your everyday life since you are now graduating in college. Here there is a cash inside that you can use for your financial problems"

Light can't explain the emotions building inside of him. Why is he helping me? Don't tell me it is all about our memories? It is hard to read this man's mind.

"Why?"

"Huh?"

"Why would you help someone like me? Someone you hardly know?"

"Why not? As I have told you that you and this restaurant was a big part of me."

He is helping me for tge sake of being thankful? I can't accept that!

"No thanks! I don't want your pity!"

Dark know that he would not accept his help.

"Well, how about this? You work for me as a chef and then I pay you? In that manner it is a win-win situation for us both?"

"Let me think it, for the time being let me be just your steward who wash dishes in the kitchen."

"Oh! Aside from that, you will have your practicum right? Why not do your on the job training here and we will give you allowance for that?"

This is too much for Light.

"Please do excuse me, Mr. Gomez. I need some air."

He went outside leaving Dark in the room.

Dark wondered what he did wrong? I have been looking out for you since the day you lost your family. I even went to the clinic where they sent you. I don't know but since I saw you in this restaurant way back, I wanted to be close to you and protect you. Is it too much to ask? Why won't you let me help you?

Light Mendez I have been in love with you and hope you need me by your side too. I dont know what happen to me.

When we met for the second time, we both are in our teenage years and that was the time I have confusions with my sexuality. You made me this and you should take responsibility. How can I make you mine? How can I make you love me? How can I make you long for me?

Love isn't something you can force right? But what I need right now is you! I want to help you get through life and forget all the bad memories you have encountered. Why won't you let me in your life? You have a big wall around you and I know that you have those to protect yourself from others right?

Dark stood up and went outside and told Jane that they need to go.

He just drunk himself in working just to calm down. He knows that he needs to have tge best tactics in life for him to win Mr. Timid!
