"The necklace is our promise"
Childhood friend Baji x Takemichi
⇓
Laughter echoed through the playground as children ran around. There, standing on top of a monkey bar, a 5-year-old male with bruises was watching as the other kids ran around playing tag.
A beautiful afternoon as the sun is shown. The children running around sweating because of the heat, some panting for air, and continue running.
There's another child, 5-year-old Takemichi. Running to the swing as it was his favorite place in the playground, zooming around with his bright red cape flowing along with him.
As he was running around, he spotted a boy standing on top of the monkey bar, watching all the other kids play with boredom written all over his face. He didn't look friendly at all. Despite that, takemichi still tried approaching the boy because he looked battered up.
Takemichi approached the black-haired boy, asking him "Why don't you play with the other kids ? And why are you so battered up ?"
The black-haired boy, however, was pretty surprised that someone actually approached him.
"Why would I? All of the kids here are annoying" replied the black-haired boy, passing a toothy grin at Takemichi who just stood there, wide-eyed.
"And so why are you so battered up ?" Takemichi points towards his scratched knee.
"I beat some kids up" "What"
"Anyway, I'm Keisuke Baji. From now on you're mine !" Baji declared. "Huh ? What do you mean by that ? I'm not yours !" Takemichi tried defending himself but Baji wouldn't budge stating that he didn't permit Takemichi to talk back.
"But-!" and before Takemichi could say something, a punch came flying towards his left cheek. His left cheek was stinging. Just how strong is this boy?
"HEY ! Why did you do that ? You don't even know my name !" Crystal-like tear drops started running down his face as he tried hiding his face with his hands.
"Look I'm sorry" Baji apologized, holding both of his hands in the air, as if he's surrendering himself to Takemichi.
"I-it's okay, I'm fine but don't do that again" Takemichi said, wiping the tears off his face.
"So, what's your name, crybaby ?" baji reached out his right hand towards Takemichi, motioning him to hold his hand.
"I'm not a crybaby ! you're just mean !" "Are you crying again ?" "NO I'M NOT !"
