Cursed destiny (AYANO'S POV)

SWEET CHILDHOOD

"It's sad when the people who gave you the best memories turn into memories themselves."

AYANO POV

"Ayano don't run off so quickly!" My mother shouted as she ran up the hill to catch me. I laughed and saw her smiling face as well. We sat under a tree to take a cover from the heating summer sun. My Father came up the hill with many baskets in his hands, the sun shined brightly which made his blonde hair look like gold.

"Daddy your hair is goldy!" I excitedly talked as I pant from all the running, my father laughs and settles down the picnic essentials. I rush to help him and so did my Mother.

"what do you mean goldy? Never heard a word like that" my father tickles me as I lay down on the picnic mat so I get up, I got up and my mother placed out the food.

"Honey they're coming" My mother pointed at the approaching family. My father got up and greeted the father with a fatherly hug. I guess it's something every father does. My mother and the other mother approached each other with a welcoming smile.

"How are you? I'm glad we're catching up with each other now again. It's been months!" My father spoke with the man.

"Im great after seeing you guys! And look at little Ayano. You've grown so much. How old are you now?" The white haired man asked me. I remember seeing him often when I younger.

"Im six!" I smile and show six fingers.

"Oh she's not a little younger than our Satoru! He's eight." The woman smiles at me.

"Speaking of Satoru, where is he?" My mom looked around for the kid, he didn't make any noise.

"Oh he's just down the hill at the big apple tree playing football." The man spoke pointing at where his son was. I was happy hearing he came, he was my only friend.

"Mommy I'm gonna play with Satoru!" I rush down the hill.

"Be careful so you don't fall!" I hear my mom shouting, but I was excited to see Satoru again. I was sick in the past months so I never got to see him.

There was a big park nearby but Satoru didn't like to talk to other kids, he didn't let me either. He said me and him was better than them and they don't deserve any attention. So I listened and didn't communicate much.

"Ru!" I ran up to him with my small feet. Suddenly I fell right before I reached the tree where Satoru was kicking his ball. I hear him come.

"Jeez Ayano how clumsy are you? If you continue growing up clumsy you'll embarrass yourself." He helped me up. I sat down on the grass and looked at the bruise on my knee.

"I was happy to see you so I didn't think about falling." I started sobbing like any kid would. Seeing Satoru smile made it a little better.

"Hey look don't cry! I'll show you a magic trick!" He put his hand on my knee and hummed something and clenched his fist before blowing on it.

"Now the wind took your pain away! Do you feel anything?" He looked proud of himself.

"No.. do you have superpowers!" My face lit up with excitement.

"Maybe!" He blinked in one eye and crossed his arms proudly. Causing me to laugh.

"You're so funny" I laugh as I spoke. His face was red.

"Hey that wasn't supposed to be funny! Im not- ugh fine." He laughed as well and sat down and soon my laughs turned into light coughs.

"Are you still sick?" He looked at me, he was still a kid but his glares could make you paralysed.

I touch my stomach chest and cheeks before smiling "I'm healthy!" He just ruffled my hair.

"Promise to always stay healthy, when I grow up I'll kill every single bacteria that will make you sick! I'll become a doctor so I can help you every time!" He stretched his arms dramatically.

"Then I'll be your helper! Doesnt doctors always have some helpers in movies?" I hold his hand and he smiles and nods.

I liked Satoru very much, not only because he was my only friend. But he didn't treat me differently because of my weak body. Most of the people would treat me like a weak fragile thing that could break at any moment. And I didn't treat him like he was something sent from heaven, even though he kinda is. Satoru grew up spoiled rotten so he wouldn't value things so often. But the stuff I've given him has been kept without a single scratch.

We got up and climbed up the tree, I sat on one of the branches meanwhile he was moving around from branch to branch a little above me.

"Ayano can you come down!" A familiar boy voice called out. I knew who it was.

"One second Tademicchi." I climbed down to the boy who looked somewhat angry. He grabbed my small hand and glared at Satoru.

"What are you doing with Ayano! She is MY girlfriend!" He was really mad.

"Huh? When did that happen!" I pulled away my hand.

"You said you liked me!" The boy crossed his arms.

"That was because the teacher forced me to! I would never like someone like you! Yucky!" I make a disgusted face which made the boys face all red. Satoru climbed down the tree with a sassy smirk.

"Leave Ayano alone Tademicchi, she has no time for losers like you." Satoru crossed his arms.

"She's supposed to be MY girlfriend go away Gojo!" Tademicchi was in the same class as Satoru and they weren't friends. In fact they hated each others guts.

"Tademicchi leave us alone!" But before I could finish my sentence the boy dragged me causing me to "ow!" Loudly.

"What part of leave her alone can't you understand!" Satoru punched the other kid causing him to stumble back and fall down. Then he got on him and started punching him.

"Hey Ru stop!" I frown at seeing the kid bleeding from his nose.

Satoru looks back at me with a "Hu-" but Tademicchi quickly kicks Satoru off him and hits him on his lip.

"Tademicchi!" I rushed to him kicking him between his legs. I don't know why I did that but yeah, he deserved it. He ran off crying and me and Satoru started laughing at him.

"hey did you hear that?" Satoru looked back at a sound from the bushes not so far away.

"Heard what?" I look at him being confused.

"I don't know if you noticed but there's two people that has been watching us for a while." He looks annoyed.

"Should we go and check" I walk up to him.

"No stay here I'm going to look" he walks close to the bush and looked behind it.

"No ones here" he sighs and comes back.

"That's so weird."

That was just a small flashback. If I knew what would happen after that, I would've never said I liked Satoru. Let's skip a little in time. Little could be years.
