The sound of a crying girl echos through the alleyways of the slums near to where Kouha was standing. The girl had long silver hair so bright it sparkled in the sunlight like freshly fallen snow, and blue sapphire eyes.
She was clothed a deep royal plum purple gown that was covered in dirt and blood as she appeared to have been attacked, as her face was bruised and cut. She cried into a small purple stuffed bunny.
Following the sound of crying, Kouha found the injured girl. "A-Are you okay?" he asked quietly.
The girl looks up at you with teary eyes as she hides behind her rabbit scared and replies in a trembling voice.
"A-are you here to h-hurt me too"...
Kouha gave her an incredulous look. "N-No, of course not!" He stretched out a hand to her. "Come on, I'll bring you to my home to treat your injuries."
The girl looks at the extended hand and hesitantly grabs it.
Kouha grins a little, before leading her in the direction of his home. Opening the door, he yelled for his mother. "Mama! I need your help please!"
She runs into the room wielding a bottle that she smashes the top off and yells.
"WHO HURT MA BABY!"
The girl tears up and hids behing kouha afraid.
Kouha sweatdrops and turns to the girl. "It's okay, this is my mother and she's a little nuts sometimes." he turns to his mother. "Mama, I'm fine, see? I found her injured just now. Could you help me treat her injuries?" he asked, giving her his best puppy eyes.
She throws the glass in the fire place and smiles cheerfully.
"of couse baby ill do anything for you"
Goes over to the girl and whispers menacingly in her ear.
"Anything~"
She treats the young girls wounds.
"Mama, don't scare her, okay?" Kouha sweatdrops, sitting on a chair and swinging his legs as she treated the young girl. "Hey, what's your name? I'm Kouha!"
The young girl replies in a soft voice. "Im yuki"
"Ooh~ Nice name! Say, what were you doing out there on your own?"
She looks down sadly.
"Some boys cornered me and beat me up... they think i'm weird coz i read alot but they dont..."
Kouhas mother pulls the yuki into a big hug and strokes her hair.
"Oh... I don't think it's weird! It's good to know lots of stuff!" Kouha cheered a little.
Yuki smiles sweetly at kouha as a small blush appears on her cheeks.
"H-hey kouha, would you m-mind if we became friends?"
Kouha grinned. "Sure! I've been wanting to make some new friends recently!"
Yuki giggles and kisses kouhas cheek.
"We're gonna be best friends forever aren't we"
Kouha turns a little pink at the sudden contact, but smiles again and replies, "Of course!"
