The Journal of Memories
Event 02: Look! A Squirrel!
Li's own eyes widened to seemingly impossible lengths as she gaped at the bawling boy in front of her.
(Just what did she do wrong?)
Waving her arms around in panic, the dark brunette whipped her head around for help before ruffling her spiky hair roughly when none came.
(Where are the adults when you need them?)
Sweat trickled down her face as Li tried to find a solution before she pointed at something in one of the many trees, "Look! A squirrel!"
(Seriously? A squirrel? That's your great plan of distraction?)
Too bad that it made him cry harder.
(Guess she forgot that they're EVIL nut-eating creatures of DOOM! Damn herbivores… Someone should seriously bite them to death.)
Li groaned in exasperation as she mussed her hair up even more before - POOF! - she was surrounded by white smoke.
(Da. Da. Da. DUM!)
The sudden smoke startled the boy into quieting (though his eyes were rimmed with redness) as Li coughed and waved the smoke away to reveal… Li looking as she previously did.
(Well, she's only five years old. What? Did you expect her to suddenly gain a masculine air? No, right? Although, the pronouns will change now.)
After waving the rest of the smoke off, Li blinked at the now-calm boy. He stared back.
(Staring contest! Who shall win?)
The girl-who-is-now-a-boy gave a quirky grin with closed eyes before sticking out his hand, "Hi! I'm Sasaki Li!"
(Quick recovery that girl - err - boy has. It's too bad that he lost the silent challenge.)
The light brunette flinched a bit when the other stuck out his hand before slowly taking it, "S-Sawada Tsunayoshi…"
(And he's still scared of him… Sigh… Poor kid.)
Li grinned genuinely and shook the hand happily, "Ja! I'll call you Tsuna and you'll call me Li! From now on, we're friends, si?"
(Aw~ What a friendly, and absolutely not scary, gender-bender!)
Tsuna gave a nervous and confused smile and tightened his grip on the other's hand, "S-Sure!"
(Yay! He's not that scared now!)
With that said and done, the dark brunette dragged her first (and soon-to-be best) friend over to the park's swings.
(And, alas! It's revealed how Tsuna got duped - err - convinced into being friends with the ever-so-lovable Li.)
