A/N:

Shuuya Kano is one of my favorite character in the one is set during the route where Hiyori was the one who was possessed by the Snake of the Clearing Eyes and not Konoha. I am so sorry if there are any grammatical error here. I am still practicing 3rd Person's POV. This one is just a drabble.

Kagerou Project belongs to Jin (Shizen no Teki-P)


All his life, Shuuya had always been vague about his feelings— to the point where a person can't really tell what he is feeling about a situation. After all, no one ever saw him shed a single tear — it has always been that stupid grin that seem to have been glued to his face the whole time.

It was not until that incident that nearly broke his facade at that moment and deeply crushed his heart. This wasn't the sight he was expecting to see, he only wanted to find Kido —along with Hiyori, and go home. He did find what he was looking for—but it was a sight that he desperately wanted to erase from his memory. The nauseating smell of blood —along with the lifeless body of the girl he love laying on the ground, bathing on her own blood inside a cold dark alley. He was fuming mad.

Despite all this, he still managed to hold on to this ridiculous facade of his and tried to keep his emotions in check. Although the usual goofy grin is gone, he still didn't shed a single tear—not in front of other people.

He always loved that girl. From the moment they met in the orphanage until now at this very moment. Maybe it's because of how she desperately hides her embarrassment by kicking or punching him playfully— or the way she acts as a real leader to this silly organization. Honestly, he doesn't know the reason why he loves her so much—more than a sister. Maybe because when you love someone, you really don't need a reason why you love them.

When Ayano jumped off the rooftop, he literally went hysterical—that was the last time he probably cried that much —until now. Right now, it just seems that his world came crushing down in an instant. He locked himself up to his room and just...cried. Seto would always try to comfort him but he paid no attention to it because right now, it hurts.

It made him question Ayano's favorite word—happiness. Is there really a thing called happiness in this world full of despair and chaos? He doesn't even remember the last time that he was genuinely happy. Maybe...just maybe—being happy wasn't meant to be a part of his life in the first place.
