Sora knew it was going to be a bad day. He'd left his watch at home that morning and he always had a bad day when he forgot his watch. It was too late to go back and get it or he'd miss the bus... speaking of which...
"Oh shit." Groaned Sora. The bus was already coming down the hill and he was on the wrong side of the road. The bus was almost at the stop and Sora was panicking. "For god's sake it's a sodding road, just cross already!" He muttered to himself. But he couldn't. The cars were driving too fast and there were too many of them. He heard his friends screaming his name from the top deck. "I'm TRYING!" Thought Sora crossly. A car stopped to let him over and he legged it just as the bus started to crawl away. The yells grew louder and Sora ran faster. "Come on! He must have seen me? Why are all bus drivers wankers?" At that moment the bus stopped to let him on. Sora was worried - had the bus driver heard him? But he was just thinking it wasn't he? But his worrying stopped when he reached the top deck.
"There he is!" Yelled Tidus, Sora's best friend, slapping him on the back.
"Ow!" Cried Sora. "You know you didn't have to yell at me down there, I was kind of trying to concentrate!" But as soon as he'd said it, Sora wished he had just kept his mouth shut. Everyone gave him weird looks and started whispering. He had gone from hero to zero in the space of about three seconds. Why did he always have to do that? Take his grief out on other people - especially his friends! Sora sat alone and in silence for the rest of the bus journey.
The bus jerked to a halt outside the main entrance. Sora tripped over the step on his way out. He stared at his shoes, but not before seeing Yuffie - his out-of-his-league crush making out with her hot boyfriend Leon. Sora spent the next ten minutes moaning to himself about all the things Leon had which he didn't. There were a lot.
"Hey Sora!" Sora heard the familiar call of his best friend from behind him. "You O.K man?" That was the amazing thing about Tidas. Even when Sora had been moody, Tidus still forgave him as he knew when there was something wrong.
"Yeh," Sora replied, "It's nothing." He then went to the toilets. To cry.
Sora didn't know why he was always so sad. He thought himself selfish and ungrateful... maybe he was? But one thing was for sure, Sora didn't like who he was, what he did or... even life in general. He wanted to be whisked away by his keyblade master idol... Riku. But Riku would never know little Sora existed. So Sora just cried in the toilets. Same as yesterday. Same as tomorrow. Things would never change.
