"You can't catch me!" two little boys were playing around,having fun.

The way they laugh,smile and play with each other forced a smile on my face. It looked so nice,yet,in just a second,the smile disappeared,like it never wasn't even there.

"Should we ask her to play with us?" a pink haired girl asked a boy,who was a bit taller then her,standing in front.

The girl was looking at me,intrigued by something,which I didn't quite understand.

I was just siting on a wooden bench,brushing my long,wavy,red hair,trying not to pay attention to other kids.

"Neh" the boy replied and smiled at the girl "Lets play" he started walking towards the playground,with hands in pockets.

'Such a typical boy'

"Um,okay" the girl turned to me,looking a bit sad,but just like every other girl,she went to the playground and never looked back to see me,a sad girl with no friends.

I was siting on the same bench as before,wiping tears off my face,while forgotten memories keep coming back.

"Kiyomi,you shouldn't be sad about non important things" the person moved my hair to the left and sat next to me.

"Sasori" I smiled at the guy with messy,red hair,looking at me,kind of emotionless "I'm not sad,see?" I pointed to a smile on my face "I'm smiling"

He just looked at a different direction,not saying a word to me.

I stood up and cleaned the dirt of my cloth,then crossed my arms and gave him the 'Kiyomi guilt look'.He looked at me for a second,then just looked away.The look just doesn't work on him,I guess.

Then he stood up and started heading home,leaving me behind.

"Idiot..." I muttered,while looking at him getting farther away.

He stopped and turned to me "You coming?" he ran his fingers through that messy hair of his.

I sighed and started running towards him "Coming".

When I got to him,he poked my forehead "Hey! What was that for?!" I really wanted to punch him in the face at that moment.

"For calling me an idiot" I actually couldn't see a slight change of his expression,as always.

                                             ***

"Do you want to help me fix my puppet?" he was already holding the doorknob of his room,waiting for my answer,so he can,as soon as possible,start  working on his puppet

I shook my head "Not tonight" I smiled at him,with the worst fake smile ever.

He just nodded and went inside his room.

I entered my room and lay down on the bed,turning left,then right,all frustrated. Then I got up and went to my work desk,where were a lot of random things on it,just lying there,looking like they never have been used before.

I started moving things from it,just so I can find this,finger small thing that made me smile.

I held it in my hand,looking at it,as if it was the most precious thing to me.

"Aika..." I looked at its beautiful black hair "My precious puppet" I laid it down on the table and attached chakra strings from my fingers to the puppet,making it stand up.

"Such beauty" I muttered as I made her walk to the edge of the table.

The puppet stopped moving and tilted its little head "Why are you sad?" I made a cute voice and made myself believe that Aika was talking to me.

I shrugged and looked a bit down,not knowing what to say.

"Your boyfriend didn't cheer you up?" with that question,I released the puppet and let it fall on the floor,which broke her left arm.

I fell to my knees "No..."
