Haruma nudged Takeru before he closed his mouth and then massaged his rather sore cheeks, “did you see anything, Takeru?” Haruma asked.

Shaking his head, Takeru lifted up the mini torch he was holding and then smiled warily, “Say ‘ahh’ again for me okay?”

Pouting a little, Haruma slowly opened his mouth again.

“Wider please”, Takeru asked, peering into the other’s mouth with the torch in hand so he could see the insides of the other’s mouth with a clearer perception.

Haruma opened his mouth wider, he could feel the edges of his mouth become drier, and tears slowly pricked his eye.

“Oh! Oh! Oh!” Takeru smiled as his eyes widened, “Haruma, I see it, I see it!”

Haruma closed his mouth, massaged his cheeks again before asking Takeru, “wait, so it really is growing?”

Nodding smartly, Takeru pursed his lips together, “you should probably go to the dentist and get an x-ray done anyway.”

“Eh…”, Haruma frowned as he continued massaging his jaw, “ne, Takeru, how long was it again? How long did you have to wait to eat properly again after they pulled out your wisdom teeth?”

“Ahh…it was about a month wasn’t it?” Takeru mused, poking his chin cutely.

“A month?” Haruma gulped, he wondered if he could stand eating nothing but liquefied food for a month. The thought made him nauseous. And it wasn’t like he wanted to lose a couple of more kilos either.

In the end, Haruma went to visit the dentist and was able to make an appointment to remove all 4 of his wisdom teeth. Unfortunately, his birthday fell right after the day his wisdom teeth were removed.

“Should I blend your birthday cake as well?” Takeru asks, looking at Haruma’s birthday cake and then at the blender.

Haruma smiles softly and shakes his head, he cradles his cheeks and looks at Takeru, “it’s okay, you can just eat it for me.”

“Hah…”, Takeru places the cake back into the fridge and then takes out a cup of chocolate mousse, “Mousse, Haruma?”

Haruma smiles again and nods.

Takeru sits opposite the younger actor, his fingers lightly reach out to poke at the other’s swollen cheeks, and Takeru chuckles, “just eat jelly when you get sick of eating smoothies and yoghurt.”

“Say ‘ahh’ for me”, Takeru coos as he takes a scoop of mousse and prompts for Haruma to open his mouth.

Haruma obediently opens his mouth and takes the mousse. He watches as Takeru smiles and he smiles back brightly in return when the shorter Amuse actor leans in and pecks him on his swollen cheek.

Perhaps his birthday wasn’t so unfortunate after all. And then Haruma remembers the nabe he had spent all week preparing with Takeru. What was going to happen to that if he can’t eat solid food for a month?

“Takeru? What are we going to do with the nabe tonight?” Haruma asked, worry clearly written on his face.

“Hm?” Takeru takes a scoop of the chocolate mousse for himself, “you can eat yoghurt or something, I’ll eat your share of the nabe for you, ne?”

And Haruma felt like crying after all.
