"Ooof!" A brunet cried as he crashed into a tree. "Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" He whispered to himself as tears began to collect in his eyes.

"Stupid-Tsuna! Again! And no tears!" A gruff voice called from behind the horizon.

"Damnit! Fuck this shit! Stupid fucking-" Tsuna mumbled as he slowly pushed himself out of the tree.

"Care to repeat yourself?" A tall shadow loomed over the boy's glaring eyes.

"Fuck you Renato! Why are you always pushing me to the limit!? I just want to be normal! Like everyone else!" Tsuna's voice pierced through the hitman's ears.

"Normal? You want to be normal? Well sorry brat, but that's not happening," his voice cut like venom.

"I hate you!" Tsuna finally broke tears spilling out from his eyes. Casting a quick and hateful glare towards the man, Tsuna sprinted out of the forest leaving the man dumbstruck.

"You should have told him the reason why. You really fucked up this time," a blue haired woman appeared with a disapproving sigh.

"Lal… what are you doing here?" Renato glowered while lowering his fedora.

"What, can't I visit my godson from time to time?" Lal gave a questioning glare to the man before turning around.

"What should I do?" Renato's voice wavered.

"...Tell him the truth… about everything. Don't worry, he'll return," she gave him a sideways glance before walking away.

"Damnit… Tsuna,"


"I just want to be normal! I wanna hang out with all the other kids too! Why can't he see that? Does he… hate me? He's never said ' I love you' to me… ever," Tsuna tightened his arms around his legs as he pressed his back against the brick wall.

The only response from his companion was a soft purr as the cat continued to rub his back against Tsuna's leg.

"I've never had a true friend before, all my aunts and uncles don't count… but, I wonder what it's like," He mumbled quietly as he reached out a hand towards the ginger cat. "Maybe we can be…?"

The unspoken question was quickly answered by the understanding eyes of the cat as it pounced into Tsuna's lanky arms.

"It's getting late… I should head back. Though, he probably wouldn't have noticed anyway," The brunet sighed to himself as he picked himself up from the damp concrete. "Let's go,"


Careful to not wake any current occupants of the house, Tsuna lightly grasped the door knob giving it a slight turn before pushing it open hoping that the heavens would not allow the door to creak.

"Tsunayoshi, I have something I want to tell you," A deep voice called Tsuna over.

"Ah...hey," Tsuna slowly dragged himself towards the living room where Renato awaited him.

"I want you to know that I never wanted this life for you. If I could, I would have turned back time to do it all over again. But we know that the world can't just comply like that," Renato chuckled grimly to himself before gesturing Tsuna over to sit next to him.

"It's unusual for you to beat around the bush, what… what is it?" Tsuna gripped the kitten in his hands awaiting for the answer.

"Tsuna… i'm part of the mafia and i'm quite a figure in it too. The number one hitman to be exact. This title has led many to my head and also, to your mother's," Renato titled his head away from Tsuna's eyes.

"M-my, mother's? I … I have a mom?" Tsuna asked with wide eyes.

"Everyone has one, silly boy. But because of me, she's gone. I'm so sorry Tsunayoshi, I failed to protect my wife and your mother," Renato closed his eyes showing a rare sign of weakness as Tsuna processed the newly given information in his five year old mind.

"Papa, it's ok. I know you tried your best and… and i'm here with you, so you must have done something right!" Tsuna hugged his father as his eyes glistened with unfallen tears. "I'm sorry for before. I didn't mean to say that,"

"It's alright Tsuna… and i'm sorry for pushing you all the time. I just.. i'm afraid that one day you'll be taken from me and I'll be just as powerless as before," Renato placed his son on his lap as the child giggled a bit from the sudden touch.

"Hehehe," Tsuna giggled under his breath as Renato gave him a strange look.

"What's so funny?" he questioned.

"Papa is such a softie!" Tsuna burst out laughing as Renato's eyes widened in shock.

"This brat!"


Just a new story. Hopefully I'll be able to update some of my other stuff before summer ends. Until then, bye!
