Second POV

When Makino brought you to her house, she sat you at the table, and she stood by the refrigerator. "You slept so long that you might be very hungry, let me cook dinner for you," she smiled sweetly.

"No, it's not worth it, I'm not hungry." The sound of a hungry stomach sounded throughout the kitchen. Your face turned red, and Makino giggled.
"Don't worry, I'll cook everything quickly." The girl opened the refrigerator and started getting groceries.
You stood up and walked over to her, "Let me help."

"Huh? No, no! You're still a guest, I can't force you to help me." She waved her hands in front of her face.
"And who said that you force?" you said, putting the index finger of your left hand in front of her face, and putting the other hand on your side, "Perhaps we will become neighbors, and neighbors should help each other."
The bartender looked surprised until she laughed. "Okay, you can chop the tomatoes then."

*Some time later*

There were several dishes on the table (favorite dishes)
Makino clapped her hands and looked at you with a smile.

"Well, let's go to the table," you sat down at the table and took the cutlery "By the way, Luffy should be back from his walk soon" she looked at the wall clock.

"Luffy? Who is that?"You cast a questioning glance at the young girl.
"This is the boy that his grandfather left us to look after, he is very energetic." she smiled sweetly. "He lives in a neighboring house, mayor and I check him every day."

"Oh, I see."

*end of lunch*

Putting all the dirty dishes in the sink, Makino turned in your direction
"I'll wash the dishes while you can go and look around,"

"Mm okay" getting up from the table you went to the front door.As soon as you left the house, the sun shone in your face. Putting your hand to your forehead, you hid your eyes from the scorching rays and looked around.
*I can just walk along the street or go to this forest* You looked at the forest behind the houses. You looked at the street. You looked at the forest. Again, on the street. Again, to the forest. You shook your shoulders and walked into the woods.

Walking along the path, you watched how small animals scatter at the sight of a person. Having left the path, in order to examine a hut built of sticks by someone not far from the path,you began to listen to the sounds made by dry branches and acid-green moss, loudly crunching under the pressure of your shoes.
The rays of the bright daytime sun, located on a cloudless blue, smoothly changing shade and bluer sky closer to the horizon, pass through the branches of trees hanging over you. Stopping near a large massive tree, you carefully sat down with your back to the bark near the protruding roots and looked at the blue sky peeking out from behind the foliage.
      Hugging your knees with your hands, you did not notice how small shiny tears fell from your eyes. A sad smile appeared in your eyes as you remembered the smiling faces of your friends, which soon blurred from.
You lowered your head and let the tears roll down your cheeks.
" Guys.."

Whispers rippled around, shoulders shaking from crying, until you felt someone standing in front of you. Quickly wiping your tears with your hand, you looked at the intruder.
It turned out to be a boy of about 4 years old, he was wearing the usual dark blue sleeveless T-shirt, gray shorts and sandals. He tilted his head to the side and looked into your eyes.
"Why are you crying?"

You sadly smiled "Just remembered friends"
"Then why are you crying? If they're your friends, they wouldn't want to see you crying remembering them." He raised his left eyebrow.

You looked at the boy dumbfounded and then lowered your head *Yeah... the guys wouldn't want to see me crying because of them* You looked up at the boy again "You must be right" You smiled.
