Beyond The Boundary

Dark Past

My heart was beating so fast from what Rin said.

"Shinoa, your the best friend I ever had, don't ever leave me" Rin said.

Oh so that's what he meant by stay with me forever, but its okay, being Rin's bestfriend and being with him is more than enough.

[RIN'S POV]

My hearts beating so fast, what is this feeling, but nevermind this, i'm glad I met Shinoa.

I hugged her tighter.

"Ok Shinoa, i'll tell you my past. Your the first one i'm telling about it too"

"I had a father and mother, their names were Yuuji Otosaka and Midori Otosaka. My father and mother met in Japan because they were both born here. We lived in a small apartment. We pay the rent every month. My father works at a factory, he was always busy, I never got to talk to him or even see him. My mother on the other hand, she doesn't have a job but she always plays with me, she always talks to me and we were having a fun time everyday. I was 8 years old. I loved my mother even if I don't talk to my father that much, I was okay with it because my mother was always there. Lately my father always comes home late like 3 in the morning. His reason was overtime. One day my mother told my father that she wanted to go to Disneyland but my father refused cause he said, he still has work to do, so he gave my mother money and told us to go and he'll catch up. My mother and I were done packing and we left the house. My father was still at the house that moment taking a shower. When we were at the airport, my mother forgot our passports so we went home. When we arrived at home, We saw my father with another girl. "WHO IS SHE!" My mother shouted. But dad won't say a thing. Mom came closer and hit the girl, she kept hitting the girl until dad asked her to stop but she didn't stop. She kept slapping her and punching her until my father punched my mother, I just stood there shocked, I didn't knew what was happening. I saw my mother she was crying. She left the house. I followed her outside and asked her where she was going. "DON'T FOLLOW ME, I WISH I NEVER MET YOUR FATHER. I WISH YOU WERE NEVER BORN!" She shouted at me. All the respect and love I felt for my mother, banished with just those words. I went home and my father was still there. I went to my room and took a nap. The next day, my father was gone. He left me without even saying a thing. I left the apartment cause I don't have enough money to pay the rent. I became a beggar on the streets. Asking for food and money. My life had no purpose anymore. I just lied down the streets waiting to die. One day a woman came, it was Miss Sakura. She saw me and looked at me, she picked me up and told me that she will be taking care of me, she gave me a smile, a really nice smile. She took me home and took care of me. She gave me new clothes and she let me take a bath. She teached me how to survive on my own. She treated me like her own son. My life had a purpose again. I told her my parents were divorced and she asked me what happened, I didn't say a thing, she said "that's okay" and she hugged me. She gave me an apartment. One day my mother called me. I didn't say a thing, she told me that she was sorry but she wouldn't be able to see me again and she was remarried and now living in dubai, she said she will just keep on sending me money. Everytime I remembered them my heart hurts. One day Miss Sakura enrolled me at a school. It was my school today, Namimori High school. The truth is my parents didn't require me to go to school, it was Miss Sakura. That's my story"

She patted my head while hugging me.

"Its okay, don't cry anymore"

She wiped my tears and I stopped crying.

I was happy, REAAAAALLY HAPPY. There was finally someone who I opened up to.

She gave me a box of candy, she told me that Miss Sakura gave it.

"Rin I bought some cup noodles, I'll just put hot water" She said.

"Okay, i'll wait here"

Shinoa went to the kitchen to serve the food and I waited in my room, After a while, the food was ready and she went to my room.

We ate the cup noodles she bought and we talked and talked.

After eating the cup noodles, I gave it to Shinoa cause she said she'll throw it in the trash can.

She went outside to dispose of it and I fell asleep.

[SHINOA'S POV]

"Oh Rin's sleeping, well he must be really tired and his apartment is a mess!"

I cleaned his apartment, I placed his clothes inside the wardrobe, all the books that were on the floor, I placed them back at the shelf and the blankets that were scattered, I fixed it and placed it in his room.

I covered Rin with a blanket and smiled at him.

"Sweet dreams"
