Introduction

"Haha! Amane, you can't catch me!" A little Chikaru ran on the daycare's playground away from a determined Amane. Other kids were running around doing their own thing as three women supervised them all.

Amane was finally closing in on Chikaru; she lunged forward at her and caught Chikaru which brought them both to the ground. "Gotcha!" Amane was happy now.

"Hey now you just dirtied our clothes Amane."

"Oh, I'm sorry." Amane quickly got off and helped Chikaru up.

"Alright kids your parents are here. Time to go home now." One of the ladies had said to the children.

"See you tomorrow Amane."

"Bye," Amane watched Chikaru leave in her parent's jeep. Chikaru's father had helped her up into the car.

The following week it was different, Amane had been dropped off by her grandparents that day. When Chikaru saw her best friend's expression she knew something was wrong. "Amane what's wrong?" She asked the bluenette when inside the building of the daycare.

"…M-my parents…just…d-died in a plane crash over…the weekend." Amane's eyes were glazed over. Her face slowly turning red ready to burst out in tears. She clutched her face as she spoke. "My g-grandparents are taking care of me, but I heard them talking and they don't want to keep me."

"Wha? That does not seem right." Chikaru sat next to her friend and placed a hand on her back as she sobbed quietly. "Hey, why don't you come over to my house for a sleepover? I want to help cheer you up." Chikaru offered her idea to Amane hoping for a yes.

"I'll ask my grandparents when they come to pick me up."

So, at the end of the day Amane had asked and got a yes from them. They didn't even bother to say bye they just drove away as quickly as possible thinking that the idea can change at any moment.

Amane had spent the night at Chikaru's house in the girl's bed. They talked so very little that the black haired girl's parents were worried as to what was wrong but didn't ask.

The next day when it was time for the children at the daycare to be picked up Amane's grandparents didn't show to get her. The bluenette had waited for over an hour for her family members but they didn't show.

"Amane." Chikaru looked out her window; she had told her parents not to go home until her friend was picked up before they left because she didn't want Amane to catch a cold out in the down pouring rain all night by herself.

Within a few more minutes Chikaru's father had gotten out of the car and walked to Amane holding an umbrella above his head towards her. "Amane please come and stay at my house. I'll call your grandparents there alright?"

Amane just nodded but didn't move from her spot so the tall man just picked her up piggyback style back to the car where Chikaru's parents then exchanged some words and expressions throughout their ride home.

Turns out Chikaru's parents had filled out adoption papers for Amane so now Chikaru and Amane can sleep together every single day and play together for a life time and that's all they both cared about at their young age.

"Nunn…" Amane awoke from her dream in a slight bit of sweat over her body. With a hand at her forehead she spoke, "It's been ages since I last had that dream." She smiled at her best friend's kind family, remembering all that they have done for her. "I should go visit my family soon." With that thought Amane fell back into dreamland.
