Yoshiki Tsujinaka

Yoshiki left his high school after classes had ended, along with other students who dispersed as they turned the corner. He was a little tired from the extra music lessons as he walked along the dirt roads, looking around and occasionally greeting acquaintances—well, most of them. He stopped when he saw a store around the corner and went inside, searching for what he wanted until he found it, bought it, and left the store. Almost home, he finished his popsicle, which didn't last even ten minutes, but at least it refreshed him. He walked past the neighboring houses until he saw something that caught his attention: a white cat. He approached it and smiled gently when the cat came up to him and meowed, asking for affection. He knelt down and reached out to gently massage its head, distracted from his purpose.
