Harumi's POV

I am crying.

I can't  help it. I try to prevent it, but it isn't my fault. No one has ever seen me cry before. Ever since I had lost my real parents, I was constantly told over and over again that crying was a sign of weakness. I held it all back until I could let it go in private. But now there's no way to control it.

A pair of gentle hands try to lift me up from the mess. I feel a sharp, sudden pain in my left leg. I look and see a sharp section of glass cutting into me.

"P-lease-st-stop!" I whimper in pain. Lloyd releases his grip on me, letting me fall back down. I am nearly halfway covered in blood. A deep, fresh cut runs straight down from my knee to my heel. Bruises and multiple smaller cuts are everywhere. Everything is bleeding. I start feeling extremely lightheaded from losing so much. A shadow covers the debris around me. I turn my head up just in time to see Lloyd's eyes widen at the sight of all the blood and numerous cuts.

Without hesitating, he reaches down, attempting to push the dangerous section of glass away from me. He ends up jerking a bloody hand back instead. Even though he tries to hide it, the pain all over his face is visible. Despite my condition, I feel bad for him. I'm the one who put him through it all.

"Hold on, you're going to be okay," He says, facing me. Grabbing a metal pipe, he stabs the sheet of sharp glass, breaking it into smaller pieces and creating just enough space for me to get out. I try to climb out myself, holding onto random pieces of wood and pulling myself up. I am forced to give up, unless I want to pass out. Lloyd gently grabs my arm and pulls me up out of the mess.

I start to slip down again. Lloyd notices and slides his hand across my back and under my arm, pulling me closer to his chest. Without even thinking, I wrap my free arm around his warm neck and lean my head against him more.

And then I see it.
