After defeating the opposing team, Hanasita and her team headed off, where they waited with the other passing teams. Hanasita's eyes scanned the area, and finally, they landed on Sanada walking out. She looked unharm, while her teammates were covered in bruises.
Bitch obviously used them as divertions... That self-centered—!
Suzuka gently placed her hand on Hanasita's shoulder and leaned in closer. "Don't start any unnecessary fights, 'kay?" Suzuka whispered.
"Yeah, yeah, I got it," Hanasita mumbled, shaking her hand off. "Just don't touch me with your germs."
"GERMS!?" Suzuka grabbed Hanasita in a chokehold. "I'll give you germs!"
Sanada turned to the shouting, along with her teammates. Her eyes held longing as she stared at Hanasita arguing with her teammates. They looked like they were family. She wanted that so bad... She was never close with her parents, especially her teammates. They're only on her team because her mom asigned them to her. They didn't care about her...
Sanada bit her lower lip. That bitch gets everything... It's not fair!
"Oi," Hanasita said.
Sanada glared at her. "What!?" she snapped.
"Don't lose in the first round. I want to be the one to take you down," Hanasita said.
Sanada smirked. "Darlin', I'll crush you," she said overconfidently.
Hanasita walked past her, glaring daggers as Sanada did the same. Suzuka and Suzuki walked past Sanada's team, apologising as they ran after Hanasita.
"Hana-chan, that's mean!" Suzuki said worriedly.
"Hana-chan, you idiot! How many times must I say not to cause trouble!?" Suzuka scolded.
Hanasita laughed as she and Suzuka gently slapped each other on their hands and arms, like they were siblings. They kept laughing as Suzuki smiled from the outside, glad that things haven't changed.
Sanada watched with longing eyes, just like before. Now she felt bad for how she treated Hanasita. One thing caught her mind, it was a bandage on Hanasita's arm, under her jumper. As a breeze came by, it lifted her sleeve and revealed it a tiny bit, but hid it again when the breeze died down.
Idiot... She even trains too hard. But her I thought she was good at Medical Ninjutsu, especially because her mom is similar to Grandma, having that 100 Strength Seal mark... Sanada mused.
The girls laughed as they left, Suzuka placing her hands on Hanasita and Suzuki's shoulders. They seemed happy.
After a while, Sanada went to get something to eat, leaving her teammates behind. Upon walking towards Thunder Burger, a place her father used to always take her, she heard some yelling from behind the store. She peeked behind, seeing Suzuka standing in front of Hanasita, who had her right arm covering her left arm. Suzuki seemed worried. By Suzuka's expression, you could tell she was pissed.
"You promised you stopped! Does Sumire-san know you picked up this habit again!?" Suzuka shouted.
"Please, Suzuka-chan, calm down," Suzuki tried reasoning.
"J-J-JUST MIND YOUR OWN GODDAMN BUSINESS!!" Hanasita shouted.
Suzuka looked taken aback for a moment, before she sighed in annoyance. "Fine. I'll mind my business. Don't think I'll be there when you fall. You know, I thought we were close... Best friends, even... But if you want me to mind my own business then fine. Later," Suzuka said, waving goodbye without looking back.
"Go..." Hanasita croaked out.
Suzuki looked at her teammate and best friend. Hanasita had saved her from bullies when they were younger, all because she was clanless, so they picked on her. Hanasita was her first friend. But Suzuka was also a close friend.
"It's okay, Suzu-chan," Hanasita reassured, a loving smile rested itself on her features.
"Hana-chan... Sorry..." Suzuki whispered.
"I just need to be alone right now. Thank you, though, for your concern," Hanasita said softly.
Suzuki nodded as she ran off into the direction Suzuka headed, intending on catching up with her. Hanasita sighed as she leaned against the back wall of Thunder Burger. She slid down until her butt touched the ground. She let go of her arm and it was bleeding heavily, which made Sanada's eyes widened. Hanasita burried her face in her hands, sobbing. Sanada was about to go out of her hiding spot and comfort her, when she heard a familiar voice.
"Ne, what's wrong, Hana-chan?" Himawari inquired, sitting down next to the purple haired maiden. "Oh, my! What happened!?" Himawari inquired in shock. "It looks deep!"
"Hima-Sensei..." Hanasita croaked out.
"Please, just call me aunt," Himawari said gently. "Now, what happened, dear?"
Hanasita didn't know why, but she found herself pouring all her feelings out to her sensei and aunt. "I made a HUGE mistake! A few years ago, my best friend, he was a bird... He died protecting me...! I was in a state of depression... and I did something horrible...!"
"What?" Himawari murmured sympathetically.
Sanada remainded hidden, awaiting what had happened. What!? I'm not a very patient person!
"I cut myself..."
No one could prepare for what they heard. Both female's eyes widened as Hanasita bawled her eyes out.
"You did... what?"
"I dunno why... but it felt so good... just getting rid of my pain... So, I kept going... But Mom eventually found out... and she stopped me... But I picked it back up again after I found the truth about who my father was...!" Hanasita sobbed.
Himawari held Hanasita in her arms, rubbing her back gently. "I had no idea you were feeling like this... Does Sumire-neechan know?" Himawari gently asked, pulling Hanasita away from her. She brushed the young female's bangs out of the way.
"N-No... She only knew of the first time..." Hanasita said breathlessly.
"Aw, you poor thing..." Himawari placed her forehead on Hanasita's, which made Hanasita's eyes widened. Her mother does the same exact thing. "No need to worry. We'll go talk to Sumire-neechan. She'll get that wound healed in no time, and can help with your therapy. I mean, a mother does know best..." Himawari said gently.
Sanada remainded hiding until she was sure they had left. I'm so, so sorry, Hana-chan. I had no idea you were suicidal and I gave you a hard time... I'm a monster.
