Episode 2- Pain
"Okita" Toshi said as he walked to his room
Okita was tired exhausted from his day's patrol as he walked into his room and changed from his uniform. He peered out of the door.
"It's beautiful isn't it" Okita Said as he smiled as cherry blossoms began to fall to the ground.
" Ohh! You mean the cherry blossoms. Yes, they are beautiful" Toshi said as he starred at Okita who was pale and tired.
"Why don't you get some rest. You look tired and exhausted" Toshi said in a worried tone as he watched Okita move to the side of his room.
" Mr. Hijikata don't worry I'll be fine" Okita said as he smiled and looked outside once more.
" I'll just get something to drink and walk around for a while" Souji said with a small smile.
Souji went out into the kitchen were Iyu was cooking and asked for a drink and took it and went back out the door into the main street.
Toshi was worried.
"Souji I hope it's nothing serious" Toshi thought in his mind and remembered the past when he was just a young boy.
He sat down and began drinking from the cup and slowly thought maybe he didn't catch something that's wrong with Souji. Just maybe.
"Mr.Okita" all the children screamed and ran to him all smiling
"Children" Souji said as he smiled and squinted to talk to the children who were all smiling.
"Let's play a little. I missed you so much" Souji said as he patted the little heads of all the kids.
