I saw him.

Kaede Akamatsu .

22, bisexual, female, single.

Kaede lives in the New York City, a crowded yet exciting place. 

Waking up to the sound of motorcycles and cars, Kaede opened her eyes, staring at the ceiling. The small alarm sitting on the side-table went off, allowing the blond-haired to start the day in her general routine. 

The windows were displaying the bright light from outside, making Kaede's hair shimmer like gold. She tiredly got up from her bed and proceeded to get ready for her shift at the plant shop. The young girl had started a cute little plant store two years ago, although not many people came by, she still loved it with all her heart.

She closed the door, officially leaving her apartment. 

There had always been something missing for Kaede. All her life she thought of herself as nothing more then just an average girl who has an empty story. Sure there was nothing bad about her life— but there was nothing exciting about it either. She wasn't very social and she didn't have many interests except from music but— she was never good enough to do anything with that hobby.

After buying a hot tea from a small cafe down the road, she walked towards the large crossing that was the only thing in between her and the plant shop. Gripping onto the cup, she stood there waiting until she could cross. Every day, every morning, there were thousands of new faces walking by. Strangely— as Kaede crossed the road, a pair of eyes caught hers.

There was no explanation for it. It was a like a spark went through her body. The moment went away in a flash but she couldn't forget those lovely greenish brown eyes. 

That's when I saw him.
