This was something of an idea, I'll finish Paralyzed then continue this, or do this more often and Paralyzed I'll just make the chapters and post it later, anyways, let's go! I had to repost this because the first chapter was clouded together. Sorry
I was walking to the grocery while it was raining. 'I picked the worse day to do this' is probably what you are thinking. But it's the opposite. Gloomy days, rain, dark rooms, they all make me happy. I enjoy the rain as the water pours on my face like tears.
It's been exactly 2 years since Naru left. I wish he never comes back. 'Am I the only one who thinks it would be awkward to face someone who rejected you for the most stupid reason?' I wondered to myself. I went inside the grocery and my eye went immediately to the bakery section. I placed my face hard against the window that is separating me from the delicious cakes, cupcakes, candies, etc. I snapped out of my thoughts and I looked at the baker. "Is there anything you want?" the baker said in a thick accent. "Yes yes! I want those candies, the rock candy, the tootsie roll, and the lollipops, of all flavors. And that cheesecake over there! Oh oh! I also want that velvet, strawberry, vanilla cakes over there! Does the chocolate taste good? Ah screw it! Put that on the list too! Can I get those puddings too? A lot of the custard pudding! And what's the name of that sweet again? Oh I want some dango too! Dango Dango! That's it" I said in one whole long breath. The baker gasped in surprise, he wrote down all the sweets I ordered and he ran out of paper.
"Ok little lady, please sit or shop around the area while we prepare you're sweets" the baker gave a shaky smile and quickly ran to go bake. I shot him a fake but bright smile. "Humans disgust me..." I scoffed and walked around the store. Yes this is me, Mai Taniyama, 18 years old. I have a secret I've been hiding. I picked up all the sweets I ordered and left the store quickly. "Ugh, waiting is such a pain" I said. The rain dripping on my head felt so nice, I wish it won't stop raining. I entered my home an pulled out some of my pudding. I dressed in my long pajamas and a sleeveless top. As I turned on the television to whatever channel that was on, I thought about all that has happened to me. I shook the thought out and sat on the couch eating pudding, with my blanket wrapped around me. And not once, did the rain stop as I fell asleep.

I saw a vision of when Naru left, and what happened after I got rejected.
I was walking back inside, where I heard everyone complaining and joking around with Naru. You can't blame them when they just figured out one of their friends/bosses was the famous Oliver Davis. When I walked inside, all eyes were on me. Everyone kept complaining on how they thought I was lost and I might have been hurt. I gave them the best smile I could manage, after all, I WAS just rejected. We all had a nice time but I kept my distance from Naru. I realized that happy times just don't last and sometimes they don't exist at all. It was hard admitting that to myself but I manged. So I stood up and announced "I'll be back just now, I promise" I smiled and skipped outside. 'A empty promise' the words wondered in my head, and they never ceased to end. And, in the end, I never did come back inside. Everyone must have been worried, because I saw posters of me being missing, but ignored them all. I made sure I told the land lord to not let the police know I live here. She agreed, because she knew what I was going through. I locked myself inside an the land lord always gave me extra food. My face against the window. And a tear for every drop of rain that fell. 'I'm so lonely, and sad...' I wondered to myself. 'HE was the only reason I was feeling glad' The thought of that made me laugh hysterically. 'Don't trust anyone, keep secrets to yourself, sit inside, be alone. And absolutely don't fall in love' were the orders given by myself. And I have carried them out swiftly. "I hate you Naru"
I woke up from the couch and just continued to lay down. But I remembered that I have a certain job to carry out. Though, I ignored the job and rested under the blankets. My phone began to ring, it was a blocked number. I hesitantly picked it up and my mouth dropped when I heard who it is.
"Monk?"
"Mai! Hey! Can you meet us at the airport?"
I already had an idea of what was going to happen, I knew that I would probably curse myself out if I went, but I still said "Yes"
"Ok! See you there! And bring an umbrella!" With that, Monk hanged up. I sighed and exited my sweet couch, and grabbed extra pudding to eat on the way. But I ignored the umbrella. "It's going to rain again..." a small smile appeared on my face as I closed the door to the awaited shit that will happen in due time.
