A/N Trying out a new style. I think it's a little too cryptic. xxx represents a shift between past and present. Please review on this one, because I honestly don't know if this style works or not.

The air is like an apple. It's crisp and cool and sour. Not the same kind of sour, but still sour.

I was just a little kid. Smaller than Takun. I had a shiny green apple for lunch, the other kids stole it and smashed it against a wall. Tasuku saved me. He told the kids to stop picking on me. He shared his lunch with me.

"I hate this place! I wish it would go away!" I cried. I cried to him, because he was the only one to cry to. My parents didn't ever talk to me, they always had work. Tasuku told me that it would take an act of God to make the school go away.

I can hear the sound of popcorn, pop pop crackle pop, thats not whats cooking, but it sounds the same.

Tasuku had saved me again. God had granted my wish. The school was gone.

We were at his house. I didn't want to sit at home alone. His grandfather didn't live with him then, I was allowed inside.

The police said that a person had started the fire. If it was a person then it wasn't God. Unless of course the fire was a god.

My back is warm like Tasuku is holding me. I miss when he used to keep me warm.

Now Tasuku is gone. He used to save me from the evil. He used to keep me warm. He used to save me. Now I have to rely on God for those things, but I can't hold God while I fall asleep, I can't love him the way I loved Tasuku.
