A Sakuyama Story-
Sakusa's POV: Looks like it's gonna rain, good thing I have an umbrella. I make my way to the counter to pay for my groceries. I put the food on the counter and wait til the cashier is done scanning. "Probably gonna rain today, ain't it?" The cashier was trying to make small talk but I'm not that social so I didn't respond quickly, "yea.." the cashier smiled to the fact I responded. "Looks like the weather guy got it wro-
"SHUT UP!"
At the sudden outburst We both flinched, the cashier laughs it off and finishes scanning the items. What the hell was that? The yelling continues making this situation awkward. How annoying, "do you know them?" I only asked because the cashier seemed to know who was yelling. "Nope, I just hear the guy yelling at whoever that person is.." I see, I noticed that the cashier was done, so I pulled out my wallet. The total price was ¥10.56 so I took out my coin purse but failed to take the coins out, leading them to drop all over the floor, "shit!" I crouch over to grab them. It was a lot of coins so I put my wallet on the counter. I successfully got them, but then got a text.
Neighbor- Hey uh there seems to be some little kids trying to break something on your property.
The hell!? Fuck! I quickly pay the cashier, I think I gave him extra money but I didn't care, some punks are damaging my house! I quickly ran out the store, I heard someone shout something but I didn't mind.

I make it to my house to find my flowers broken and stepped on. Fucking brats. I leaned over to get a better look. Sigh why me. I touched the dead flower and decide to throw them away and plant new ones. I stood up straight and went to my front door. I'll put the groceries inside my house and then I can start throwing them out. I went to fish my keys out of my pocket. Only my keys were in my pockets. Good. I grab the key and start to open the door when it occurred to me. Only my keys? Where is my wallet? My WALLET! "Shit! Shit! Shit! Ughh" I let out a groan, but then remembered that I left my wallet at the store.
I left my groceries on my porch, hopefully no one grabs it and I start to run back to where the store is. It might rain when I get back there, so I brought my umbrella. I ran into the store, panting while I was talking to the cashier, "hey, need something?" The cashier was surprised I came back, "do you... Know where uhh my w-wallet is!?" I leaned on the counter, and good thing the cashier new what I was talking about and pulled out my wallet, "I say this is yours?" I grabbed it out of his hands and thanked him. I walked out of the store, to my prediction it did start to rain. I unbuckled my umbrella and opened it up to hold it up for me.
I needed to catch my breath so I sat down at a nearby bench. Sigh. It is chilly out here. I might get sick, and I hate getting sick. I was about to get up until I heard a sobbing noise. I flipped my head around to find a boy, holding his knees tightly and covering his face but I could still hear him crying. He was in an alley way alone on the floor. I decided to see if he was okay, "are you alright?" That got his attention, he flinched and looked at me before wiping his face. "S-sorry I didn't notice you.." his voice was shaking and quiet, he must've been crying a lot. Without thinking I say something that lifted his head up, "you might catch a cold, so come sit with me." He just stared at me until he got up slowly and walked towards me, sitting right next to me. I placed the umbrella in between us.
It was awkward at first but I decided to speak up, "so.. what's wrong?" I glanced at the boy. He stared at the ground, his eyes were red and tear stains surrounded his cheeks. Did he hear me? I stared at him trying to figure out what he was thinking, but I couldn't. He just stared mindlessly at the floor. "What's your name?" Maybe he can answer that? I waited for an answer but never received one. I internally sighed, and just sat there. It's ok I'll wait until he's ready.

I'm feeling a bit sleepy, how long have we been out here? I don't see anybody outside. I glance at the boy, it didn't look like he was going to say anything. Sigh. What time is it? "Yamaguchi Tadashi.." huh!? I turned my head towards him, he finally talked! Yamaguchi huh? "The names Sakusa.. kiyoomi." It's only fair if I told him mine as well. He brought his legs up to his chest and held them tightly with his chin resting on his knees. "You're probably guessing why I'm crying.." he whispered softly, I nodded, "only if you want me to know." He turned his face to my direction, his dark brown eyes met mine. He stared at me softly.
While I stared at him i noticed a few things, his cheeks have cute freckles on them, and his hair is a little weird but it suits him. He looks cute.. "My boyfriend... he uh..." I could hear is voice crack when he said 'boyfriend'. His eyes started to glisten in tears and his lips were quivering, I placed my hand on his shoulder, and smiled at him. "Hey it's ok.. Why don't we go to my house? You can talk about it over there." He looked at me surprised, I could tell he was thinking about it at first but of course I am merely a stranger to him. He looked up at me and nodded while smiling endearingly. He must trust me huh?
