Wrote this story as a kind of vent a while ago , decided to use it for theme 23 , simply because When feeling like this , I felt stupid.
It's from a Yusei POV. Enjoy!
I have people around me, all the time, but I feel lonely sometimes.
Perhaps it is because, although most of them are my friends, they are not my true and close friends. They are not Aki, Jack, Crow, Rua, Ruka or Bruno – the most important people in my life.
But Bruno is dead, and the others are scattered across the world.
I talk to them online, and on the phone, and video chats. But I still feel alone.
Sometimes, I will see a bunch of kids running and laughing, towards something, and I will think it is Crow, and not some other older kids.
I will hear a harsh but strong voice in a crowd, and hear Jack, not the brown haired guy in a suit who is barking into a mobile phone.
A flash of green hair, and I see Rua and Ruka, not a punk loving woman coming out of that clothes shop.
I happen to glance at a man hunched over a computer, and it is Bruno, and not a colleague at the reactor , someone who I hardly know.
I feel a soft touch on my bare arm in the summer, and I think it is Aki, and not simply the gentle and beautiful summer breeze.
I know it is stupid , but I can't help it.
