"Wanna tell us what you're doing on this side of town?" Two tall boys with greasy black hair and jean jackets had a short boy up against a wall.

"I-i- There wasn't a store open on the north side so I had to come here, please I just need to get my medicine." The boy practically begged the boys to put him down.

"Woah, hey don't cry. You need medicine?" The boy nodded his head. "Aight I'll walk with you so you don't get jumped. Don't freak shorty." The tall boy put him down and stood beside him.

The other boy seemed confused but stood on the other side of the boy none the less and they walked him to the store and then back to the north side.

"T-Thank you..um.." He looked up at the taller boy, "I'm sorry what's your name?"

"It's Mattia, what about you shorty?" The boy smirked down at him.

"K-kairi." The taller boy, Mattia, looked surprised.

"You Japanese?" Kairi nodded.

"And Italian."

"Wait for real? You should be on the south side shorty." Mattia smirked.

"Hey man we gotta go, underground starts soon." The boy next to Mattia interrupted while looking down at the watch on his wrist.

"Aight, see you around shorty." The two boys crossed back over to the 'south side' and walked home.

Kairi watched the two walk away, extremely thankful for the tall Italian boy.
