The pain of the past to unlock the future

"but...." she started to protest, but stoped. "alright....." she said softly

"Don't worry, I'll be right here..." Jeramey said with a smile.

Reika smiled back softly, then stood slowly still clutching her necklace

"Thank you so much, Reika..." Jeramey said as he smiled then disappeared.

Reika walked home sadly, staring at the sky silently

Kyodai was still in town, walking around drunkenly.

Reika saw him, and hesitently walked over to him. and stayed silent

Kyodai leaned against the wall on his shoulder, thinking about Jeramey.

Reika stayed quiet not knowing what to say to him

Kyodai coughed as he dropped his bottle of booze and unleaned from the wall and turned around but stopped, "Reika?"

the girl looked silently at th ground her hand still clamped tightly around the sun

"Reika...I'm so sorry I got mad at you..." Kyodai said, though he was still as drink as a pickle, he did mean it.

"i'm sory too.....for everything...." she replied softly her voice barely loud enough to be heard.

Kyodai stumbled to her and gave her a hug but he stunk of booze.

Reika tensed, "you smell like a bar..." she mumbled.

"Sorry..." Kyodai said then coughed again.

"we need to get you inside, your gonna get sick." she said to him

"I'm fine...just a bit tipsy..." Kyodai said as he stumbled as he walked.

"that's bullshit your coming with me." she said

"Make me..." He said drunkenly as he pointed a finger to her but fell over, passed out.

Reika sighed and dragged him to her house

Kyodai was out like a light...a very drunk light, "Jeramey..." he mumbled.

Reika looked down at him sadly as she placed him on the couch in her living room.

Kyodai finally went to sleep...not the drunken kind too. He coughed a few times in his sleep.

Reika felt of his forehead to see if he was running a fever
