I left home with my Kalimba again, I had already searched the internet for a river with cherry trees to walk along. My mother must have been sleeping so I didn't tell her I was leaving. I walked really little until I reached that river,It was a long road where small petals did not stop raining, I was hypnotized by those views and I continued looking for a place by the river to sit down and play the Kalimba with the soft sound of the wind.

I found a small bench where there was another boy who, honestly, I did not pay any attention to, I didn't know why the sound of the Kalimba became so beautiful when it was played in beautiful places but it was enveloping and sweet.

ーnice sound, what instrument is it?ーI heard the voice of the boy next to me.

ー it's a Kalimba, it doesn't sound very loud but its sound is melodicーI said looking at that boy, it was almost completely covered by his clothes, I could only see a strand of his intense red hair.

ーit is an instrument whose harmony would be played by the angels themselvesーhe said slowlyー I wonder what manifestation such a pure soul will haveーhe said with an air of mystery.

I looked at him ready to ask about it but someone called my name loudly.

ーSHIRO!!, SHIROOO!!ーkakyoin shouted my name he was with Jotaro who came to where I was. Kakyoin hugged me tightly upon seeing me.

ーI feel like I haven't seen you in five years hahahaーI said returning the hug.

ーsame for me, you disappeared from class for a weekーhe said caressing my head for a moment. I looked at Jotaro and he was staring at the boy next to me, the boy just stood up and left, I looked Jotaro in the face, what was happening? He seemed farsighted, something bad must have noticed.

ーEverything okay, Jotaro?ーHe looked at me and lowered his cap.

ーIt's okay, don't worryーI looked at him for a few moments trying to guess what was going through his head, but he seemed to be the only one capable of finding out everything by looking at people.

ーwe were going to eat and spend the afternoon at my house, are you in?ーsays kakyoin excited.

ーoh yes, that would be fine, thanksーI said quite happily. I put the Kalimba in my backpack and followed the guys. They talked and I walked a space behind them looking around (not at all because his long legs wouldn't let me keep up with them) but I noticed Jotaro looking back and it wasn't me he was looking for when he did that, I noticed some caution in him so I started to take measures and watch my surroundings, maybe I was overthinking what Jotaro was doing but my anxiety is like that, I can't control it.

Kakyoin stopped and pointed to a shopping mall.

ーhere is a convenience store with many things, we can buy instant noodles, chips and drinks for the afternoonーhe said almost entering.

Jotaro followed him and I hesitated a bit before entering there were many people and the distance between Kakyoin, Jotaro and I was getting bigger, Kakyoin was the one who was farthest, their height allowed me to see them but the people did not let me advance.

I saw how they walked away making me feel very nervous, alone, among so many people, I tried to reach them but my nerves grew and my legs began to be weak, my heart beating fast and breathing heavily, I looked at the nearest exit and tried to go towards it when I felt a pressure on my finger, like that time in class, special points to calm anxieties that I had never known how to activate, I began to feel somewhat calmer, this time I didn't even ask myself why I suddenly felt that pressure on my finger, I wanted to get out of there.

Someone grabbed my wrist, turning around I saw Jotaro, he had gone back to look for me.

ーCalm down, I'm here, come on don't stay behindーHer voice wasn't soft but his words comforted me. I grabbed his hand so I wouldn't lose him in the crowd again. Kakyoin had stopped where there were fewer people and watched us arrive, he turned around and went to the aforementioned store to get things. I stayed at the entrance with Jotaro. I looked at my hand. It was weird, I had never managed to calm myself down by pressing that point and i hadn't even touched it.

ーI already have the things...you don't have to keep holding handsーI suddenly let go of Jotaro's hand when kakyoin said that, I had not realized that we were still holding hands. I felt embarrassed but Kakyoin made me walk beside him to talk to me, he talked to me about arts and I listened attentively until we arrived at a beautiful house about 20 minutes away from mine.

Upon entering we saw a beautiful entrance and a woman with unmistakable red hair like Kakyoin, she turned around and when she saw us she approached smiling.

ーI'm Mrs. Kakyoin, nice to meet youーshe said, bowing.

ーnice to meet you tooーjotaro said crouching down slightly as well.

ーi-sameーI made a big bow because of my nerves.

ーYou're a foreigner right?ーMrs. Kakyoin said after letting out a sweet laugh.

ーIs it that noticeable?ーI said feeling disappointed by my terrible Japanese.

ーYou don't have Asian signs, a non-native accent, dyed hair, you're quite tall for Japanese, and you don't know the cultureーJotaro said wryly.

Kakyoin told his mother that we would be in his room and we went upstairs, it was full of video games, he was a geek in a good way. I sat by the shelf looking at the games he had.

ーYou have absolutely everything hereーI said quite impressed.

ーI like them a lot, do you want to play something? Whatever you wantーhe says.

I looked at all the games I had while Jotaro made the instant ramen. I took Omori's game in my hands but I looked to see if there was a better one when a cover I know very well appeared.

ーWOAH, THE LAST OF US!, THIS, THIS, PLEASEーI said, excitedly picking up the game. Kakyoin looked at me with wide eyes.

ーI've never seen you so excited hahaha, come on, you can play itーhe says sweetly.

ーTHANK YOU, I always loved the game!ーI told kakyoin while the game was being read by the consoleー is about zombies and the story of how a father who lost his daughter in the outbreak of the apocalypse continues to survive by dedicating himself to smuggling, one day the merchandise is going to be a girl immune to the disease that transformed zombiesー

Jotaro arrived with the instant noodles ready so I stopped playing and we ate together while we talked about anything. After that Kakyoin wanted to try so when I left him the remote I turned around to see Jotaro lying on the bed with a book about marine mammals, I slowly approached him and Jotaro took his eyes off the book.

ーcan I read it too?ー I asked in a low tone feeling somewhat pressured by his gaze, he slightly moved his head allowing me to come closer to read, I lay down next to him and he was on the manatees page, I tried to keep my distance from him while reading but after a while it got awkward and I let my head rest on Jotaro's shoulder, it was a good edition of the book, the information was interesting and accurate.

ーshiro, it's going to be 10pm, I don't think your mother will appreciate you sleeping here, maybe you should leaveーsays Kakyoin stopping playing.

ーAre you telling me that you don't want me to be here?ーI said pretending to be offended.

ーnono, if it were up to me you would stay here to sleep but I don't want you to disappear another weekー he said standing up and giving me a big hug.

Jotaro got up too.

ーI can go alone, stay a while longer with KakyoinーI said grabbing my backpack and Kalimba to go.

ーNot to mention, it's night and he lives across the street, let him come with youーKakyoin says pushing me carefully to Jotaro's side. She shook hands with him and we went home.

We were silent on the way, I didn't feel the need to talk about anything and honestly I was falling asleep standing up.

But from one moment to another Jotaro made a quick move. Surprised, I turned to see him. He was quite serious.

ーwhat will the manifestation of a pure girl's soul look like?ーsaid a voice in the dark. Jotaro opened his eyes and put himself between the person speaking and me.

Suddenly the person threw something and disappeared without a trace, Jotaro spent a long time looking around looking for that person but it seemed that he had definitely left. I tried to ask but he evaded my questions, I went home without saying anything to my mother, I was really confused.

I wanted to ask him on his cell phone but I think it was better to talk about it in person.
