The sun shone bright up the sky. It's blinding ray smothering earth like grass coating a huge field. The sound of horns, engine and people's talking were a headache to start a day with. But it also gave a 23-year-old female reason to be active and start her day. She wasn't the active type. She worked hard, sure but took her time.

She uninterestedly examined the energetic city. Her (e/c) eyes snapping back to it's previous spot as they caught a red vehicle stopping in front of her. All the people that were waiting for it along with her, headed inside. Her thin hand gripped the strip of her bag tightly as she excused herself inside as well.

After spotting a proper seat beside the window, she slide her bag off her shoulder and kept it on her lap as she sat down. A sound of door closing was heard before the vehicle started off with a sudden jerk.

'𝑇ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑖𝑠 ℎ𝑜𝑤 𝑖𝑡 𝑓𝑒𝑒𝑙𝑠 𝑡𝑜 𝑛𝑜𝑡 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑎 𝑐𝑎𝑟..ℎ𝑢ℎ? 𝐼 𝑚𝑖𝑠𝑠 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑒.' She grumbled to herself annoyed.

Her eyes followed each building, cars, trees passing by. A sigh of pleasure escaped her lips as she took a sip of her morning caffeine.

Suddenly a tap was sensed on her shoulder, dragging her attention away from the liquid in her hand. She twisted her head to where the tap came from. Her unreadable eyes were greeted by a pair of sparkling brown ones. Brows twisted in inquiry as she stared at the blank face of a youngster.

"Yes? What can I help you with young man?" He kept staring at her for a moment before her vision met a tiny school bag of a child. The strip of it was split from it's holder. It was still connectable.

"I-I was wondering if you could help me with this.." the female's gaze went to the man sitting beside him; drowned in sleep. She sighed and nodded. Her eyes warmed at the kid's adorable smile. She took the cartoon printed plastic bag from his small chubby hands into her own larger ones.

"What's your name, Obā-san?" The child questioned.

"My name? Are you supposed to be talking to strangers?" The woman peered at the child from the corner of her eyes. A smile graced her feature as she saw the shook look on the child's face.

"Yes! But you're helping me so that means you're nice." She chuckled at his naiveness, one of her hand made their way up to the boy's head. She gave a soft ruffle; which gained a whine from him making her smile harder.

"In that case, my name is (Y/n) (L/n) and what would be your's, kid?"

"Itsuki, Itsuki Sachi." She gave him an impressed look. "Itsuki huh? That is a very beautiful name." The young boy blushed at the compliment before stuttering out a thank you which she replied with a smile.

The boy kept talking to her as she concentrated on the task she was given. She nodded and spoke out once in a while not to bore the boy while doing so. Soon she finished fixing the bag, her hands patted the a surface of it as she looked satisfied with her work.
