chapter 2

~my parents money~

"mom can we please go to the park?, my friend and his parents always go there every Sunday, He would always show me pictures and-" but before Takemichi could finish his sentence, his mom slammed her hands on the table making the poor boy flinch and look at her eyes with clear fright.

"why are you so needy, can't you see i'm doing something?, why do you always bother me" his mom yelled in a harsh tone, it was so loud even their neighbours can hear it from far afar.

Takemichi bowed his head staring at the floor, not daring to look at his now angry mom, he tried to contain himself from crying not wanting to irritate his mom more, but in the end he failed to do so. he can't stop his tears from flowing out of his bright blue eyes, the more he tries to contain it the more it his tear fall. "i'm- i'm so- sorry" he mumbles and stutter every word he spoke , his sobs continued, non stop, making his mom show an annoyed expression . he slowly tried looks up, wanting to see his mothers expression but before he could make another move. he felt a sudden palm making contact with his delicate cheeks.

it was his fathers hand, he got launched at the corner of the room, making his butt slam to the cold hard floor. yeah sure his father was not a bulky man, he was a business man, but compared to a young boy like him, Takemichi stands no chance. it made such an impact on Takemichi's skin that his cheeks started to get swollen and his lips started bleeding, Takemichi gently touched his right cheeks and it was stinging, it hurted so much. 'Please make it stop' he pleaded to himself hoping someone to stop his father from hurting him, but who would help a boy who can't even help himself.

"why are you so noisy?" his father looked down at him like looking at an scared ant begging not to be stepped on and crush. after a few minutes of staring at him, his father started walking away and slamming the door leaving him with his mom, who only looked at him with disgust on her face and slowly leaving after. leaving him alone, crying himself to sleep. It doesn't matter because nobody will treat his wound, nobody will tell him that it's 'alright', he could only curl himself into a ball, hugging his legs while laying at the cold, dirty floor. his cheeks was still swollen, but his tears were starting to dry up, he couldn't cry anymore, his eyes can't produce tears after crying so much. the only thing he could do was comfort himself and stare at the nothingness.

he was just 6 at that time. A kid with no parents supporting him in his every steps.

after walking for a while he finally stops at a unknown destination, looking around not even having a clue as to where he was, even though there might even be a chance for him not to be able to return to his house it didn't bother him at all, it wasn't important wether he goes back or not. He only wanted to go back home if you ask him but there's no home, just a big house nothing more. There was No laughter in the dining table, no mom to scold you if you go home late, no dad to teach you to be a man, there's nothing.

he found himself near the sea, he sat there for quite a long time, looking at the dark blue sky embrace the whole world - watching the stars shine brightly in this cursed darkness, giving light to those in need, along with the moon who shines more brightly than anything else in the area, showing it's power that can overshine anything else.

'ahh~ it looks so free I'm so jealous , can i also be free like that, will i shine brightly more than anything else and live freely.
