Childhood Love
Disclaimer: I do not own the ninja turtles except my own character or others that are not recognized in the TMNT Universe. So do not make a harsh review. Also do not mind grammar errors.
Author's Notes: Hello, this is the second chapter of my short story, "Childhood Love". Please enjoy!
Chapter 2: Miaka
Leo had on his blue coat and his blue cap when he was at the topside. The people there were so busy that they didn't even bother to look down and see a mutant turtle boy walking along. Leo kept thinking about his brothers and how noisy they are. But still, he cared about them and loves them with all his heart.
Brothers.
'Brothers.' Leo thought. He felt so sorry for himself yelling like that to them… and Master Splinter. Leo walked faster away from the crowded streets in Manhattan. He then found a park across the street he was walking.
Leo sighed and happily crossed the street to the park.
He then walked carefully into the park.
There were a few people in the park. Leo kept looking for a hiding place to relax in; he then found a space behind some rose bushes. Leo then went to that special space he found and relaxed.
Leo accidentally drifted to sleep…
Later…
It was about 4:00 pm at the park and Leo was still in his hiding place sleeping. A little girl then found his little hiding place and saw him asleep. The girl had dark brown hair with brown eyes. She was sort of a Japanese decent. Her hair was pulled up with two buns on each side. The buns were elegantly tied into blue ribbons.
She carefully tapped Leo's turtle beak that made Leo laughed and made his eyes shot open, which it did.
Leo awoke and saw the girl sitting in front of him. Leo jumped up with surprise!
"W-Who are you?" he asked with a surprised face.
The girl smiled warmly, "My name is Miaka! What is your name turtle boy?"
Leo huffed, "Do not call me turtle boy you klutzy girl!" (A/N: Leo is in a bad mood…) The girl then changed her happy expression to a sad expression. Besides, she was only 7 and Leo is 9.
Miaka then started to cry, tears came out of her shining brown eyes and poured into the ground like a never-ending rain. Leo then saw the sadness of the girl. He carefully said in a soothing voice, "I'm sorry! I am very sorry for making you cry Miaka."
Miaka stopped crying and looked at him, "You're so mean! But anyways, what is your name?" Leo then shrugged, "My name is Leonardo, call me Leo for short." Miaka smiled and dried her tears, "Nice to meet you Leo-san."
Leo looked at her; he knew she was sort of Japanese. "So your Japanese?" he asked. Miaka nodded her head slowly, "Yeah, my father is from Japan but my mom is from America." Miaka explained, "How about you what is your family like? Are they mutant turtles like you? Why are you even a turtle? Where you from Japan? Is this too much questions?"
She giggled and Leo laughed, "Apparently, yes… too much questions!"
Miaka then looked at him deeply and asked, "Do you want to play for a little while?" Leo scratched his head, "Are you sure? I mean…"
"No!" Miaka interrupted. "We can play here in your secret place so no one can see you!" Leo then looked at her and smiled, "Okay, so what do you want to play Miaka?" Miaka then shrugged, "I don't know, but we can try playing hide and seek." The both agreed and played their game.
Leo and Miaka were having the best days of their lives playing with each other. They even tell stories until…
"MIAKA! WHERE ARE YOU? IT'S TIME TO GO HOME!" Miaka's mother called out to her daughter. Miaka turned to her mother and then looked at Leo with a sad expression. "Aw… we I have to leave. You want to meet here again tomorrow? I always go here after school." Leo then nodded.
"Do not worry Miaka, I'll be here tomorrow!" Miaka smiled and hugged him. That made Leo blushes deep red.
After that, Miaka left and Leo went down to the sewers…
