There are good days and bad days in everyone's life; mostly good or it's 50/50. That is what everyone always says. Kurosaki Ichigo, in her short life of 16 years, has had nearly one bad day after another for almost seven years straight. Excluding the good days where she can simply focus on her sisters alone, if it isn't her father being an asshole, it's her entire school being assholes, and if it isn't her school being assholes, it's the gangs around Karakura, including the one she never officially joined but in a sense did, and if it isn't the gangs, it's the struggle to keep food on the table with usually less than legal odd jobs while balancing the practically unending amount of schoolwork she has to keep her No. 1 spot tied with Ishida Uryū. She has no privacy, no peace and quiet, and while her sisters are so sweet to try and ease her burdens, they are only 7 years old. She's THIS close to shaving all of her hair off and faking her own death. Then, it all slowly changes; all because she decided to risk being late to school to buy some candy as a surprise for her sisters. Ichigo's life seems to be taking a turn for the better, and it's all because of a weird candy shop owner, Urahara Kisuke. - I wasn't expecting to make something like this, but here we are. I've never really written a slow burn that will be as long as this one (that's the plan anyway). If anything, I hope you all enjoy! Updates will be posted on Mondays.
