Yugo can’t believe his eyes. “How did you get there?”
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1BH0VagPV
“Welp, maybe same as yours.”
Alex ended his sentence, Luca starts his talk. “He came here an hour ago, Fuuchan said he is looking for you, so he let Alex in.”
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaVIYxLJwr
“I’m glad you look happy right now.” Alex smiles to Yugo gently.
“What the hell man, you don’t have to.” Yugo lift his hand on Alex’s shoulder, “I thought it’s already crazy to send a message to the past.”
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRsxFIWUMm
“Is that your friend from the future?”
Pomu ask just for sure, Yugo said yeah with a happy tone.
“Let’s talk more Yugo, led me your room.”
“So… you came here to take me back?”
Yugo clarified the situation, “Yeah, that’s why I came here, I know it’s difficult to do this but… we need you.” the sadness show up in both their face, “I’ve given 24 hours to do this, there’s no much time.” Alex’s voice sounds like warning, but also a worried. “After 24 hours, the time machine will open, we all need to go back.”
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXF6y438VS
Yugo lower his head, he could feel the future is waiting for him, but he got his present friends right now, who is also very important.
“I know it’s tough for you, I’ll give you sometime.”
Finishing his word, Alex stands up. “I’m gonna visit your house, hope you don’t mind.” He left Yugo’s room to let Yugo have some personal time.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk17FbctWpb
He turned his head back to the monitor, staring at it but thinking nothing.
Yugo was frustrated, but also pessimistic. If he comes back to his timeline, he is not sure whether he could come back or not. He loves NijisanjiEN family, but he also loves his friends, who need him right now.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeXQeoS2Wv
What should he do?
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBy67vGwPF
I gonna take a walk and think about this. Yugo thought, leave his room. When he goes downstairs, he sees Alex, Maria and rent of the Noctyx are in the living room, hanging around to try to get to know each other.
“Wow, the Android in there is so meddle and dangerous.”
Alban said with surprise. “Yeah, that’s why Yugo and I have to hide in the bar to play our music. Right now so many humans are already standing for their rights.”
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiNr6PkjHj
“Understandable.” Fulgur nods.
“Oh hey Yugo! We just talk about you.”
Sonny raise his hand to welcome Yugo, “Yugo onii-chan（お兄ちゃん）!” Maria also wave her hand and let Yugo have a seat.
“Oh… Thanks.” He said with his wry smile, he is not ready yet.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMecfElfsI
“What’s going on Yugo? Why the long face?”
Uki asks with worry and curious.
“What- oh, it’s okay, I was thinking about the future.” Yugo answered, but still can’t cover his sadness.
“That's okay. Future is unpredictable, but we have each other.”
Fulgur try to encourage Yugo, “Yeah, it's okay Yugo! We are all here, daijiyoubu（大丈夫）.” Alban gives him a smile, makes him feel more comfy.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0eSFJNdmG
“Kyoudai（兄弟）...!”
Yugo looks at others, feels like he has tears in the eyes, sounds like he is going to cry.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvNPcAmgFm
The truth is he's not really crying or tearing down. This is too painful, the choice is too painful.
“What happened? niichan（兄ちゃん）, it's weird for you to look like that.”
Maria asks with question. “Welp, I think I know the answer tho.”
Alex got into the conversation suddenly. “That’s the reason why I came here.”
He didn't expect to see Yugo sad when he just arrived. But right now he feels bad.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPoc4fncCc
“We are… going to go back, to our timeline.”
Alex said sadly. Yugo felt his heart got hurt a little, also lost a beaten. It’s not good, this is not good.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfWZFqSVqE
“Wait, really?” Alban gets surprised. “Yeah… but it’s…” Yugo answer softly, “I mean, I just bought a gift for you guys.” He pauses his word, staring at the ground. He doesn’t want to see sad face from others, he’s also afraid to cry.
The space went quiet for a while, Uki is the one break the silence. “I knew this is going to happen 2 months ago, the star told me.”
He looks at Yugo, “I’m not ready for this too.”
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhWmmHnxL4
“What about we receive our gift first? It’s really nice to give us gifts.”
Sonny try not to keep the weird atmosphere going on, Yugo raise his hand after hearing Sonny says, walks into a bunch of gifts he bought, finding things to give them.
“This is for you guys!”
Yugo takes five gifts in his hand, it’s a good moment so he tries to keep his smile on the face.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8jmE48VTW
Pink is for Maria, like her cute voice and singing.
Yellow is for Sonny, like his voice variability and bright hair.

Sonny stares at the bottle for 5 seconds.
“Is this a hair conditioner? why did you bring this to me Yugo?”
“I think yours is better.”, Fulgur looks at the machine conditioner on his hand. “I don't know if I'll use it but… thanks.”
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomIfgQciLZ
“You can use that to let your hair brighter.” Yugo laughs before saying that, everyone starts laughing again after hearing it.
“And Fuuchan, I also bought you a novel call ‘Little Mushroom’, I’m not sure if you like it cause I don’t know BL that much.”
Fulgur bigger his eyes, “No worries, I love Little Mushroom are you kidding me?”, also check his bag- it’s an unofficial one, but already good enough.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0n2Tm8YIr
“Sorry Alex I… didn't buy you a gift.”
Yugo apologized to his old friend.
“Nah it's okay, I didn't say I would come too.”
Alex forgives Yugo, gives Yugo a wink.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVIBvli0G6
“This is so great Yugo, I'll not waste it!”
Alban is seeing the crystal shining so bright.
“I will put it in a clear bottle and save it forever.”, Sonny slowly put his gift in the bag.
“Wha- You don’t have to, you should use it to your hair.” Yugo looks at Sonny’s hair, it’s already bright enough.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovHqkQOiLT
“You should bring all of this to everyone, Yugo. This is your last time could give them, they’ll absolutely like it.” Fulgur suggests, also drag everyone back to the reality.
Yeah… Yugo is going to go back to his timeline, he doesn’t know how to tell other numbers about this.

When he realized it, he was hugged by Sonny, next is Uki, then Alban and Fulgur.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnHeYRVnxT
“It's okay to say goodbye, must be so many people waiting for you.”
Alban, also the leader of the group, was the first one start to speak.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdgBRXQ28v
“We will remember you as a part of the Noctyx no matter what.”
Sonny don't think he could get over it in a short time, but he will never forget his kyoudai.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYl2w9XpJa3
“Yeah, and we will fight for you.”
Uki follows Sonny, he can see Yugo struggling and he didn't think he could stop this.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw46eV40El0
“So don't worry, maybe we can meet up in the future. That's the place we came from after all.”

Yugo feels his tears fall down from his eyes, this time is for real.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uzgjAbgWh
“Wait, but we are from different timelines. Fulgur?”
Alban suddenly found out something wrong.
“I mean… they might have us but different timeline, right?”
After Fulgur said it, Yugo laugh naturally. It’s not really a stupid idea though. Maybe there ARE someone like Noctyx in their timeline.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvMhAwcwAu
