   "I'm coming home

"I'm coming home."

Oh. Straight to the point huh?

"Wait what? Why? I mean, I'm happy and all.. but why the sudden visit..?" I hastily asked with confusion written all over my face, and I'm sure he can hear it waver in my voice as well.

"Just tell mom. I'm busy."

"O-oh.. okay. Bye-"

The line cut off.

Well that was a fun conversation. With my head lowered, I sigh before slowly bringing my phone down. Looks like I'll be seeing my brother for the first time in years huh?

This is weird. I mean, what am I supposed to say when he's here? But it's not like we stopped talking, No- we talk all the time. In text though. Maybe I just find it weird that it's the first time we actually talked? Like with voices and all? We haven't had time to call or anything like that especially since he's always busy all the goddamn time.

Groaning, I scrunch my eyebrows together. Deciding that the ground probably had enough of me and my sharp stare, I look up, right in time to catch a glimpse of the children from before playing soccer.

If only I could bring back time..

'Sae-nii.. Why'd you have to leave?'

.

"Arrgh! Now's not the time to get angsty!" I said to no one in particular. 'I should probably go back to mom, they're probably done talking by now.'

Taking my thoughts into consideration, I start walking back to where I last was. While doing so-I don't know how it happened, but I probably zoned out again- I bump into someone. Again.

After momentarily catching myself, I look up to see a girl about my age? maybe older? probably close. At least this time it isn't a child anymore.

"Ah! I'm so sorry! Are you alright??" She frantically asked, looking all around my body as if that slight force caused bruises. "I didn't hurt you did I-"

"I'm fine! I'm fine!" I quickly assured, waving my hands around to stop her from blabbering. "I should be the one saying sorry!"

With that, she calms down. "Oh.. haha.. It's fine." She said in a more relaxed tone this time.

"Hey what are you doing over there?! Let's go! I'm hungry!" A voice shouts from behind her, causing the both of us to look.

"Okay, Reo! Wait!" She shouts back. I don't mean to look but I can't help but assess the boy's appearance. Boys, actually. There were two of them. The one from before had purple hair and the one next to him has- Holy shit he's tall.

"I'm sorry about that, uhh..?" Her voice catching me off guard.

"Oh! Right. My name's.." While introducing myself, the kids from before run past us, shouting whatever the hell they're shouting. "(Y/n) Itoshi." I continue.

"C'mon let's go... I'm tired already.." The tall guy latches on to her arm before attempting to drag her to where I assume is the place they intend to go to.

"Okay Nagi, just a moment." She quickly shushed him. At this point, the boy-who's name I just learned is Nagi- starts dragging her away, his impatience being evident.

"I'm so sorry! Ermm... Itoshi! It was nice meeting you!!" She quickly shouted before she was fully dragged away by the two.

"Yeah, you too!" Oh shit I forgot to ask her name. Oh well. It seemed like she didn't get a gist of my name as well because of the kids.

Come to think of it, I should really stop zoning out in public. Because, you know, to avoid bumping into strangers?

Sighing, I start walking again before a cold chill ran down my spine upon remembering what I was really walking for.

Okay, now I need to actually go back to my mom now.
