Chapter 1

It was dark and cold and few were about. Sitting deep in the darkness was a 7 year old boy wearing ripped clothing. He had silver hair, which shone beautifully in the moons light. He sat alone in the darkness crying deep into his hands.

Suddenly he felt a soft gentle hand touch his shoulder. He froze for about 10 seconds before he spun around finding a little girl about the same age as him standing there with a handkerchief in her hand.

She stuck out her hand with the handkerchief on it offering it to the boy. But he wouldn't accept it and looked the other way. The girl felt a lot of sadness coming from the boy and didn't want to leave him there in the state he was in.

So she went around to the front of him so they were facing each other. Then out of no were she gave the boy a little kiss on the cheek. The boy's eyes became bigger from shock as he blushed a little bit.

The girl then stood up and placed the handkerchief into the boy's hands and turned to walk away. However before she could take her first step she felt something pull her to the ground. Before she knew what was happening, the boy had her in a tight hug.

He began to cry into the girls shoulder. She gently put her arms around him to comfort him. "Let it out" she said in a low but sweet voice. After a few minutes he pulled away and faced the opposite direction blushing even redder. "What's your name" she said trying not to laugh. "H..Ha..Haru, Haru Glory" he quietly said trying to avoid eye contact.

"That's a funny name, well I'm Elie, nice to meet you" Elie said with a big smile on her face. "Want to be friends Haru" she said, offering him her hand to help him up. "I've never had a friend before" Haru said sadly. "Well now you do" Elie said helping him up.

"ELIE DEAR WE HAVE TO GO SOON" a man shouted out from the distance. "OKAY" Elie replied. "Who's that?" Haru said shyly. "That's just my dad". "Oh" haru said a little disappointed. "I better go then" Haru said waving goodbye to his new and only friend. He began to walk off into the darkness.

"WAIT, PROMISE ME WE WILL MEET AGAIN OK!" Elie said trying so hard not to cry, she she didn't want to say goodbye to her new friend. "I PROMISE" Haru said before disappearing into the darkness. "I hope so" Elie said to her self as she turned around. She then began to walk in the opposite direction.
