Sae Itoshi

You didn't have the best life possible. Yes, you were pretty and kind, but there were many problems at home. Your parents fought almost all the time, and you couldn't be home much because of their fights, or you just locked yourself in your room.

Today was no exception; your parents were fighting, so you decided to go to the park alone. You used to go to the park alone whenever you felt sad.

You ran out and hid under the bleachers of the park's soccer field, crying, because your parents were arguing loudly, even mentioning the word "Divorce." Hearing that, you just ran away, and now you're there, sitting in the grass under the bleachers, curled up in a ball and crying about it.

You didn't want your parents to divorce, because you loved them both more than anything.

Just then, a soccer ball flew past you, but you didn't notice, so you just kept crying.

When you looked up, you saw a boy your age, with red hair and turquoise eyes, wearing a soccer uniform, holding that ball.

When you saw him, you were startled; you didn't know what to do or say, so you just froze, though a few tears continued to fall down your cheeks. The boy, noticing this, simply asked a question and sat down beside you.

"Are you okay?" Her tone of voice was calm and concerned, because no one had ever seen you crying like that, because at your school, no one knew how you felt.
