Mayumi POV
>>>>>>>>>>>

I am starting to cry. He scared me. No one should be able to scare a person who can kill a whole forest with her tears. As I cry I am overthinking and under thinking. The blur of horribleness that is my life. My parent obliterated from this world. Yemon-Sensei who I could have saved died. I am doomed to be with my friend who I think of as a little brother.

"I'm so sorry..." he breathed out and repeated "I'm so sorry..."

So sorry. So sorry. The word sorry is sweet and sour to me. It can be sweet when meaningful. It can be sour when meaningless. But this sorry leaves me more broken then anything. He says it as it slips out meaningless or meaningful. I can't and won't decide. I don't have enough time.

I smiled a fake and exasperated "I think we should this scroll now. No?" I ask as I stand up.

"No." Shisui says as he grabs my wrist and pulls me back down. So we're now sitting together on the grass.

No? He must of saw through my illusion of being okay. I hate how I can't hide my emotions. They all burst out of nowhere and shout out to the audience around me. I'm here tired and wish I could teleport to my apartment. But i'm here with a sore ass on the grass. In the middle of a forest off the track.

"What...?" I say pulling out the syllables.

"I know things have been tough for you recently. I apologize for turning my sharingan on. It was just frustration just know your not the only person in this village with problems. But if you need to talk i'm here." He said sighing looking off into the star filled sky.

I wish I could I wish. But i'm too far deep now. The secrets I have to keep are above my head. My body filled and simmering with new, fresh lies.

"Shisui... I am fine..." I said breathing out not believing what I just said.

"Well ok..." Shisui said looking away.

"I'm gonna look in my bag. We can stay here for the night then head out tomorrow morning." I said thinking of how to escape this conversation.

I walked over to my bag to look through it simply. I have had this bag since I was little. I was looking for my hair brush when I found a book. More like a journal though. I forgot had this...

Flashback
>>>>>>>>>

Mayumi POV
<<<<<<<<<<<

I was an unlucky 8 year old looking for my lost diary. Being not the smartest I didn't realize someone would actually read it.

Looking around I found someone leaning against the tree. I talked with him sometimes but not often. We knew each other from the academy. When I looked closer I saw another guy. The two guys flat out laughing looking into a book.

I was confused until I looked closer. Upon inspection I soon realized where my diary went. I was shocked and angry. They looked up finally noticing me. There faces went from laughing to scared.

"You two! I was looking for that! I-I'll blast you to the moon!" I yelled waving my finger to the sky.

Itachi shrugged picking up the journal to hand it back. But a hand grabbed his arm. Getting the book out of Itachi's hand. Shisui ran away with the book smiling back at us.

"Ketch me first!" He yelled running with the book.

I soon tackled him down to the ground. Trying my best to hold him down. Even though I just met this kid I was willing to fight him. His cheeky smile I want to wipe it off his face!
Though before I could grab it I was pushed to the ground. One hand beside my face and the other dangling my book in my face.

"To slow" he said jumping off me. I was angry he took my diary! And teased me too!

"Ugh your so annoying give it back" I said giving him the serious stare. I gone from playful anger to serious.

"If you tell me your name!" He said with a smirk. Confused why he wasn't intimidated like others were confused me. My famous stare always works till now.

"Hoshima Mayumi just call me Mayumi." I said with a huff. He is something alright.

"See you around Mayumi!" He handed me the book and disappeared.

Mayumi POV
>>>>>>>>>>>

The memory was quite blurry but I remember it well. I wish things were how it used to be. Care-free no losses or pain. But sadly life is bittersweet to me.

Bittersweet.

The forest is dead just like expected but it's a little worrisome. I'm still worried about me being able to kill things with my tears.

"I'm hitting the have Mayumi." Shisui said walking away.

"Wait Shisui..." I said quietly almost not able to hear.

"hmm?" hummed Shisui as he turned back around to me.

"Do you know what this is?" I said holding up my journal.

The Journal was a fade purple with a light shade of brown. Not very pretty and pages were wrinkled. But it had the same innocent feel as when I was 8 years old.

"You still have that..." Shisui looked a little shook at the journal but happy.

"Yeah, my bags quite old and I was looking for something when I found it. But I just wanted to see if you remembered. How we became friends.." I said smiling.

Bittersweet to me honestly.
