You don't really know how it all started, but somehow you're starting to get to know Itadori Yuuji more. You got his phone number from that day, and you told him to update you on homework since you decided to shy away from school for a few days. But it's been 4 days and he's yet to text. You stare at your stony, faceless ceiling. You've already stared at it for days now you've grown to make up patterns from the paint bubbles. You've not said a word to your mom, neither your dad, not that they care anyways but still. Yesterday your mom came in to check on your "fever" and left food on  tray, but the thought of the school girls are stopping you from eating. Nothing can save you now. You realize how deep you've fallen into this hole. When you've entered this "hole", it will probably take 3 weeks for you to come back to school. When you're this stuck with worry, blocking out thoughts is difficult. It seems this black hole keeps drowning you in, and you're starting to like it.

You start to reminisce your first love, how it felt like an epiphany, it made your heart break many times. He was indeed nice to you, but somehow things never turned out right. He used to give you flowers every birthday, so spending your first year without him made you wish to hold him once more. The day he said those words, your world fell apart. Because through it all, you gave him your heart. You had spent every minute loving that boy, no matter how much he wanted you weren't capable  of giving. But heartbreak became a friend in time, because when your forever fell apart, you got to choose what to think of. On some days, you'd cry over how nice he was to you. On the other, you'd cry over how foolish you were to fall for his lies. And other days, you'd think of him with every random moment that spikes, from freshly cut flowers you'd find at your garden, to the school boys that has a similar face shape, or even his mole. You only had yourself to blame all this time, for never being enough, and for that while, you were numb. 

You take off the headphones from your ears, drawing a long sigh. A flash of Itadori's face enters your head space, making you frown. Where did that come from? then, it hits again. The feeling of the wind in your hair, smelling his minty shampoo, his arms around you, protecting you from whatever it is you're scared of. The look of his honey-like eyes, suddenly you're glad you met him. even if he never answers his phone. You take a final look at your screen:

(What's the homework today?)

(What's the homework today?)

( homework today?)

(Hey me agn. What's the homework today?)

Then, you glance at the clock on your wall. 8.45pm. Great, another day spent on doing absolutely nothing but crying. Even anime can't help you now. There's a knock at your door, coming from outside. 

"Sweetie, it's mom." the familiar voice alerts you.

"Yes?"you answer.

"Can you get me some groceries? We're out of milk, and other things."she says.
