It was a fun afternoon in the Matsuno household, with a lot of chaos happening and such.
But unfortunately, you had to cut the fun shortly because you had to get groceries, kindly instructed by your mom.

You are now currently in the grocery store, with a cart filled with the needs and a few more excess things for yourself and your family.

You were in the hair products section, looking at different type of hair dye and shampoos.

'maybe i should change shampoos and dye my hair?'

'ah, but I dont know what color to do...'

You were thinking very hard, looking at the various colors of dye.

"Hey, (Color) streaks would really look good on your h/c hair." Someone spoke up from besides you.

You jolted in surprise at the suddenness, almost dropping the products in your hands.

"Oh sorry, did I startle you?" They asked, sheepishly chuckling.

"Y-yeah... Thanks for the suggestion though..." You looked at them, then your eyes widened in surprise.

He was TALL, had different colored eyes, a buzz cut, and a big scar on his face. He was really attractive, too.

"How..." You asked.

"Hm?" The stranger seemed genuinely confused by your question.

"How do you walk around while showing your scar to everyone..?" You timidly asked.

"Oh. I just mind my own business!" He smiles. "I mean, it's my face, my scars, not theirs. It's not like they're the one strutting in the streets with it." He continues.

"Ah, well... I have a scar on my face too." You nervously laughed.

"Have more confidence in yourself, man! I'm sure you'll look great with your face shown to the world." He pats your head.

You nodded, smiling up at him.

"I'll think about it, kind sir." You bowed a little.

"Ah, Kakucho is fine. I think I'm younger than you." He waves a hand.

"Eh? I'm only 16 though..." You said.

"I'm 14..." He said.

-awkward silence-

"A-ah, I forgot to tell you my name. My name's Matsuno Y/N." You introduced.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Kakucho Hitto." He introduced, fully.

"Ano... It's really nice having a conversation with you, Kakucho-kun, but I have to go now..." You bowed as an apology.

"No problem! See you!!" He waves you goodbye as you pushed your cart away, with the (color) hair dye in your hands, along with a dyeing set.

Walking home with bags of groceries in your hands, you hummed random songs along the way, thinking about your scar and Kakucho's words.

You yawned, but got surprised when someone bumped into you. It was an old man, in a fancy suit and such.

"Hey, watch it!" They yelled, their coffee spilling a little.

"I'm so sorry, sir!" You apologized, wide eyed as the man was very angry.

"My suit got ruined, you brat! Pay for this!" He yells, pointing at his suit that had a little coffee stain. "Did you know this suit costed me 1000 US dollars?!"

You flinched at his yelling as you kept your head low. You then bowed. "I apologize, sir. But I dont have that kind of money on me right now..." You said, about to cry as the man kept shouting at you, earning a lot of attention from people.
