Drabble #2: The Meeting
----------
Little Tohru whimpered.
She had been in her secret hiding place for the entire night, her secret hiding place being a narrow dark alley.
She was bullied last night.
Now that she crawled out, she was lost and didn't know where her home was. She began to get scared and started to cry.
Suddenly, she saw a little boy standing at the corner of the street she was on in front of her. He started to walk away.
"Wait!" She cried desperately and ran after him.
Each time she thought he had disappeared, he showed up at the next corner. It was as if he was guiding her somewhere.
The next thing she knew, she was standing at the front gate of her house.
She looked to the boy. "Thank you." She said.
The boy walked up to her, took off the red cap on his head and put it on hers, giving her a glimpse of his face as he did so.
Tohru gasped. Such pretty eyes! She thought.
"I'm Tohru. Thank you for bringing me home."
The boy walked away, then suddenly stopped midway and turned around to face her.
"Yuki." He said quietly with a small smile and continued on his way.
Tohru didn't have much time to ponder over the mysterious stranger she had just met before she heard her mother come running to the gate.
"Tohru!"
Tohru's eyes began to water.
"Mom!"
And as mother and daughter embraced, only one thought kept repeating itself in Tohru's head.
Thank you...Yuki-kun.
