Another day has passed, I've been avoiding everyone.

Munakata saw something was wrong but I shut him out.

I never wanted to be alone more in my life.

But yet again, I never wanted someone to cry just as much.

I want to leave but I have no place to go- was everything, every promise and every action just a way to trick me?

If this is all true, and Munakata finds out… what would he do to me?

I needed to get away- nervously standing in munakata's office, he gave me a list.

It was full of the names of food.

Grocery shopping… he Let me wear whatever I wanted- I put on some pants and a shirt, pants felt oddly satisfying to wear after so long of short shorts and frilly dresses.

I read the list over and over as I walked down the street.

I constantly checked my pocket to make sure I hadn't dropped the money.

I got to the store, and grabbed a basket.

I felt so many mixed emotions that I hadn't gotten a wink of sleep last night.

I looked around, found some things and put them in the basket.

I was looking around, there was a tall woman, I was a bit surprised to see how tall she was… maybe 6”0 ft. Or 5”9 at least.

She had fairly long light pink ocean waved hair.

There was something about her-

but I washed sure what it was.

Like something in my heart was pulling me to her, maybe I saw her in my dreams a few times.

I noticed she had two small children, the same age.

One with purple hair and one with light blue hair.

The blue one clearly a boy, and the purple one a girl.

“Mom!” The boy tugged at her sleeve. The boy tried desperately to get her attention.

I was staring for a while, but looked away as I felt like it was a bit creepy of me.

I looked up at the food.

I found the package of rice I was asked to get.

It was so far up- I tried to reach for it, but I short legs gave me no glory.

I saw a slim hand reach up with ease and grab it, then held it down to my level to grab.

I took it, then followed the hand to the woman I was looking at a few seconds ago.

She smiled at me “sorry, but I couldn't just watch you struggle.” I felt like my foot was in my mouth when I spoke, “oh-a-ah thank you-” she giggled a little “you're welcome, come here to run an errand for Mom and Dad?”

Mom and Dad?

I shook my head “No, it's-” how do I explain this!?

“- for… myself” she looked a bit surprised “yourself? Oh!

So you must be much older then, huh? I'm sorry, I thought you were a young kid-” she clearly looked embarrassed in herself for thinking such a thing.

But for some reason, I was okay with that… “Well, I'll be on my way now. Sorry for bothering you” I shook my head a little “no, it's no… problem.” She didn't hear me, she was already around the corner by time my words left my mouth… who was she?

Why did she make me feel like this?

So light and fluffy inside… I shook my head once more to try and get my mind off of things… it felt like everything was going to me okay for a moment.

But the darkness of reality came crashing on me again after a few minutes of being alone once more.

I walked down the street with two sacks of food in each hand.

It wasn't a long walk.

But the whole time, I was thinking if I should run.

But where to?... I have no place to go, I'd be on the streets again. . . I shivered a bit, why didn't I bring a coat?

I looked around, and Standing out like a candle in the dark was the woman again. But she was so far away-

I had a strong feeling that she was important.

But I couldn't figure out why. . . I took a deep breath, and walked across the street.
