You ran in the cold night, you vaguely remembered where Rin lived.
This must be a joke.
A cruel prank.
You stood in front of her house, breathing heavily. As you got closer to the entrance, your steps were heavy.
The house itself seemed devoid of any warmth. It had the lights on yet.... It felt lonely.
Your shaking hand knocked the wooden door.
Nobody answered for a hot minute.
Or, at least to you, it seemed that long.
"..."
You heard a person approach the door. A tiny glimmer of hope appeared in your chest when you heard it. 'she is still here....'
"What do you want kid" a harsh voice broke your trance. You froze. It wasn't Rin.
"Uh, is this Rin-" you started.
"DARE YOU SAY HER NAME!" the lady screamed. Anger filled her face.
That's when you noticed how she looked. Bloodshot red eyes, a flushed face, and unkempt hair.
"Who the fuck are you anyway??" She screamed at you and came toward you with a scornful expression on her face.
"I'm her fri-" "So you are the problem!" she grabbed your hair, your faced morphed to one of pain. You tried to push her hand off, but her grip was too firm.
You cried in pain as her hand twisted your hair.
"You are to blame for her suicide! She was never like this before!" Each word that escaped from her mouth was like a dagger stabbing your heart.
"You bitch! It is because friends like you she strayed away from her path"
Your screams did not faze her.
Maybe what she said is true.
It was your fault.
You are the problem.
Rin died because of you.
Fuck.
Tears spilled from your eyes and on to the concrete.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING??" A rough-sounding voice approached you and dragged the woman away.
Your eyes never looked up. It was your fault. She just lost her daughter. Your nails dug into your flesh, causing blood to seep out.
"GET LOST! CANT YOU SEE WHAT HARM YOU HAVE ALREADY DONE" the gruff voice spoke to you, hatred apparent in his voice.
You remained motionless, biting back your tears. "I-I'm sorr-"
You heard the bang of the door being shut.
FUN FACT!!!
1. As a child Rin was always fascinated by music so much so she was willing to make it her career, but her parents thought it was useless to pursue it further than a mere hobby.
2. Even if Rin was seen talking to many classmates, she weirdly never hung out with any of them after school.
3. Lu Guang had sensed something amiss with Rin but decided to ask .
