Hidden Identity

School

[PIC OF SAE ABOVE. HARU'S LITTLE SISTER.]

I ran back to BlackShip and up to my room. I slammed the door in frustration and threw my wig to the ground. I cried and cried because i couldn't punch anything. It's not my apartment. If i don't punch anything when i'm angry, i just cry.

"On my first day back!" i muttered.

After i was done with my mini tantrum, i got changed to my normal clothes and took off my make-up. 10 minutes later i heard a knock on my door while i was drawing on my notepad.

Jo: "Can i come in, Claire?"

"Yeah."

He walked in and held a shocked expression.

"Didn't my parents explain...?" i asked about my wig and make-up.

Jo: "Y-yeah but you're really beautiful."

"Thank you! I know!"

Jo: "Hahaha!"

"Um...Jo...the others don't know about this...so could you please not tell anyone? I'm living with you, so i can trust you."

Jo: "Of course. And..." he sat on the end of my bed. "Are you ok?"

"?"

Jo: "I...er..heard you crying before. And heard you slam the door...haha..."

"Sorry! I've got serious anger problems..."

Jo: "Did something happen?"

"Well..." i explained everything to Jo. And the incident from my past which made me so angry.

Jo: "Oh..." his expression saddened in sympathy.

"But it was in the past! I'm fine now!"

Jo: "Not really...it's affected you a lot hasn't it?"

"....."

Jo: "You can tell me."

"I don't want to talk about it." I looked away.

Jo: "Come here." He hugged me to make me feel better.

"!"

Jo: "What's wrong? O-oh i'm sorry-"

"No don't be. It's just that...i haven't been hugged in a long time. People have been treating me like i'm an adult and everything...sometimes even i forget that i'm still a teenager..."

Jo: "Well anytime you need a hug you can always come to me!"

"Haha thanks!"

Jo: "I'm not joking."

*Ring ring*

My phone rang. It was from mum.

"Hi mum!"

Mum: "Hi, Rosie really wanted to talk to you. She's been crying for ages."

"Ok then."

Rosie: "Hello...?"

"Hi Rosie!"

Rosie: "HI! When are you coming back?!"

"Hahaha! It hasn't even been a full day yet!"

Rosie: "But..."

"I'll try to visit soon ok?"
