Hello! I'm Miugi. If you read the other first chapter, note that I've replaced that with this.
It was getting dark, and Misaki was completely lost.
Bringing up his lamp, he looked around. There were trees surrounding the area and a whole lot of fog covering up his view. The wind was whispering ghostly sounds he couldn't make out. He felt as if the branches were staring at him, noting every move he made.
Why did he take this unfamiliar path? Why couldn't he just go meet Nii-chan, who lived in the other side of the woods, and go home immediately?
Home…
He was tired, hungry, cold, and alone.
The wind once again blew hard on his face. Misaki tightened the red hood around him. Exhausted, he put down his lamp and settled under a tree. He looked around again. Suddenly, he spotted something between the few nearby trees. He brought his lamp up and studied what was between those trees. Was that… a house?
'A house!' he thought excitedly. Maybe the owner would give him directions. As he ran towards the house, he noticed how old it looked. Branches were stuck everywhere, it was in ruins. He knocked at the door.
No answer. He knocked again. No answer yet again. He knocked once more, harder this time. The door creaked open. Without thinking twice, Misaki stepped inside. It was dark. The only source of light was Misaki's lamp. ''Hello? I-is anyone there?'' No reply. 'Does anyone live here?' he thought, feeling hopeless.
He looked around and spotted the dining table. He neared it and saw a bowl of porridge with steam coming out of it. 'Maybe someone really does live here,' he thought.
Feeling hungry, he picked up the bowl and took a gulp and immediately spat it out. ''Eugh!''
It was too hot! He didn't like it. It took away his hunger immediately. He put down the bowl and studied his surroundings. He was still so cold. He spotted a blanket kept on a chair. He wrapped himself with it and settled on the chair. ''This feels good…'' He rocked the chair back and forth. Back and forth it went under his command until… CRASH! Misaki fell and the chair met its death. 'Oh no, it broke. I'll apologize to the owner later I guess.'
Misaki decided to look around more. He looked around (he was doing that a lot lately) and saw a door.
He went over and pushed it open. It was dark inside the room too, but Misaki left his lamp on the dining table. Not wanting to go back, he stepped inside the room. He could see the shadowy figure of a bed.
Immediately, he ran towards it and jumped in. His body was aching after all that walking and he was so sleepy. Misaki liked the bed. It was a comfortable bed. He wrapped himself under the covers and closed his eyes.

Akihiko was staring at his wide-open door. Was there someone inside?
'Why would anyone be in this part of the woods?' He stepped inside and looked around.
He noticed that someone had had his porridge and that the idiot had also broken his chair.
''It seems he's made himself comfortable.''
He stepped into his bedroom and saw a small figure sleeping in his bed. In his bed! This guy was getting way too comfortable. He felt his anger rise and walked over to the bed to take a closer look at the intruder.
One look at him, and Akihiko knew all his anger had been washed away.
What do you think? Goldilocks didn't work out I guess =w=; Notice the red hood? ;D Anyway, thanks for reading!
