Can't You See | M. Sano

22| Memory Lane

"You should've just left when I gave you a chance Aoi...look what happened," you said and walked away, trying to play it cool.

Your vision was slowly getting blurry by the minute.

*COUGH COUGH*

As your vision got blurry, you could see the droplets and puddles of red as you walked. You could hear the constant calling of your name. You could feel all the muscles in your body relax. You could taste the iron and the dryness in your mouth. It seemed as if the sky, once blue and beautiful, was now grey and gloomy.

Was this the end... No, it couldn't be.

Your life just started, after all...Right?

Right !?

Flashback~ (Y/n's childhood, early when Ryusei moved in with the Sato family)

"Hey, hurry up, Y/n," a little boy yelled, running with his blond braids blowing in the wind.

"You guys are running too fast," The little girl panted, trying to keep up.

The boy with braided blond hair laughed and continued running.

"Wait for me-" the little girl yelped as the two boys in her view got farther and farther.

*THUD*

"Woah, Y/n-" one said, stopping in his steps.

"Ran-Rindou-...why are you guys leaving me behind...?" The girl cried on the floor.

The small girl continued to wail on the floor.

"Will you take my hand already?" a boy with a bun said, reaching out his hand.

The girl looked up, "Thank you, Rin."

The girl stood to her feet.

"Oh damn, Y/n, your bleeding," a braided hair boy said.

"Huh...?"

The young girl reached for her head; stains of red painted her fingertips that dripped down to her palm.

"Did you fall on your face or something?" Ran tilted his head.

"Uh, yeah, I guess I did-"

"Does it hurt?" Rin interrupted.

"No, not at...all," she said.

The boy grabbed her face and tilted in many directions examining the wound. Ran looked over Rin's shoulder. The girl's gaze was stuck on the two boy's faces.

She looked at Rindou Haitani, a young boy with nice blond hair tied in a small bun with some hair coming out before his eye. He wore some glasses, but it was unclear whether he needed them. Rindou, the younger brother, always kept a serious look and his "I don't care" tone.

Ran, the oldest among the Haitani brothers. He also had blonde hair, which was much longer than Rindo's. Ran's hair was tied into two braids in which there was hair apart from the braids, making it look like bangs.
