Summary
When Ainosuke leaves for America without looking back, Kaoru is forced to confront a future he never imagined, one without the man he thought he'd spend his life with. As he struggles to rebuild after heartbreak, Kojiro refuses to let him face it alone.
From Okinawa to Italy, from heartbreak to healing, the two of them build a new life together. Between shared routines, quiet evenings, and a friendship that begins to blur into something more, Kaoru slowly realizes that moving on isn't about forgetting the person who left, it's about finally seeing the one who stayed.

from Kaoru 9:51 P.M.
It’s been ten years.
You forgot, didn’t you?Kojiro frowns at his screen. forgot what?, he begins to type, but his fingers still on the screen before he can get the full message out.
Ten years. Ten years… it rings recognition in Kojiro’s mind, but only very faintly. It’s been ten years since… what? Ten years ago, they were both 17. It couldn’t be anything like a friendship anniversary; they’d known each other far longer than ten years. Then, was it something they’d done at 17?
Ten years. Kojiro remembers something like a box, something like a—
from Kaoru 9:53 P.M.
You definitely forgot.
You’re definitely going to be late.

Better hurry.—something like a letter.
“Oh,” Kojiro says out loud. “Oh, fuck.”
Ten years ago, at 17—before Adam, before Italy, before—
“Fuuuuck.”
Ten years ago, at 17, an optimistic, foolish, idiotic Kojiro had written Kaoru a love letter.
