Katana's point of view
after the unsettling news mom had busted in the door the tears from my eyes so catastrophic it hit her, she already knew what was happening she went to the floor as well. because Mom was jobless, things were going to be very rough.
a week later
mom and I decided to look for jobs because it was very hard to get a full time job at my age but I had to look for a part time job and mom had to go back to the States soon, I didn't want to be bothered but I started wished that I was rich or had a lot of money maybe we could pay off our debts, rent and buy the house and everything else.
I had school the next day and I didn't want to tell people that I was poor I didn't want to ask for help either so I kept quiet I made my way through school as if everything was okay but it wasn't, it really wasn't, but only one person in the entire school could tell that was faking it, everything wasn't okay, the same girl that had hit me off my bike was same girl you could tell My act.
after school she had told me to meet her on the field, and so I did. we both introduced ourselves and she ask me one simple question that leaded me to burst into tears, "are you okay, you don't look too okay to me and don't tell me you are because I know you're aren't. "
I couldn't hesitate, the tears were too much and I cant support myself in any way I was still too young to get a full-time job, so I just told her the whole truth.
"my father was the one who make money in the house but I went to school he supported me unused to send money to my mom so she could get a plane ticket and come back to visit, but lately things change and I know we're both broke my mom and I and my father is in the hospital i don't know if he'll make it out."
as I looked up at her this look she gave me, it was trying to tell me everything is okay but I couldn't I, couldn't bear the thought. then she asked, "how much money do you need?"
it's not like she could have helped me either way so I told her the amount that I need a and the amount that I could have gotten to buy the house, pay off dads dept, pay the bills and everything else.
she smiled at me then she made a phone call afterwards, I was wondering who she called but I didn't care any k just waited for her to finish the call, we kept talking and talking eventually it was getting late so we both headed home.
Yui's point of view
as i headed home the thought hit me, dad always made money, either illegally or by scams. it wasn't as easy to persuade dad to give me money and i didn't want to steal it either. I just question the thought as i headed into the house. apon entering the house i heard a gun echo, I thought maybe it was dad checking out a new crate and finding weapons In them.
i could not bother talking to dad,so i told Mom tht i needed her help.my mom couldn't wait a minute before agreeing she then looks me in the eyes then said,"so who's the guy?"
"mom? the stove.."i said changing the subject..
mom glanced at the stove and then asked ,"so what do you need help with,?"
i then told her the amount of money and why i n’eeded the money. mom was stoked when i slipped and mentioned katana's name, as i kept leading mom more and more she asked,"are you gay?" i shook off, "no mom"
i hesitated "i just want to help Katana she's my best friend, my only friend actually."
i had nothing else set but to help Katana-chan.p as
