Kyo's P.O.V.
I was walking down the street with my hands deep in my pockets. I was glaring at the ground. I was mad at Tohru for leaving. I was mad at Yuki for being the one she ran to for comfort. But most of all, I was mad at myself for what I had done. I wanted her back. No, I needed Tohru back in my life. I decided I needed to make a change, but I didn't know where to start. I looked to the sky and prayed for a sign, although I didn't know who I was praying too. All of a sudden, I tripped on a crack in the sidewalk and when I looked up, I was face to face with a sign talking about a group called Alcoholics Anonymous. I had been given an actual sign. I smiled to myself and thanked whoever was up there for answering my prayer. I stood and brushed myself off, memorizing the building for tonight.
"I'm going to start making a change in my life, for Tohru!" I said aloud as I continued on my way to work.
I stretched my back out as I prepared to leave work. I turned my head to see a few of my coworkers approaching me, coats in hand.
"Heading to the bar after work today, Kyo? I know you had an emergency and had to rush home the other day, but we haven't seen you there since," one of them said. I shook my head.
"No, I'm done with drinking. It's ruined my life, and I need to try and salvage what's left of it," I said, turning away from them.
"Come on, Kyo, it can't be that bad," another coworker piped up.
"Don't act like you know everything," I growled, walking away from them. I heard them following me, but I payed them no mind. I sighed heavily as I stopped on the sidewalk outside the building where my meeting was to take place. They were still behind me, but I walked in anyway. I walked in and instantly regretted it. Everyone turned to look at me.
"Please, take a seat," an older man with a clipboard said, gesturing to an empty chair. I agonizingly walked over and sat.
"Let's resume introductions, shall we?" he said, gesturing to the woman a few chairs to my right. She stood.
"My name is Kaede, and I'm an alcoholic," she said, sitting down again.
"Hi, Kaede," the group said in unison. A few more people introduced themselves, and then it was my turn. My skin was crawling as I stood.
"My name is Kyo, and I'm an alcoholic," I said.
