Bounded By Betrayal

Chapter 4: Having Friends When It Matters The Most

Later that evening Kaito was with his group of close pals, Kaito sat down beside Mei.. " Taro told us what has been going on lately"

Rubbing his forehead, Kaito said, we had a moment few days ago, but the next morning she was nowhere to be found... she has been avoiding me since then, she also said what we had was a mistake and that she wanted to be alone.

Jin's eyes widened. "A mistake? I thought you guys had it going

Kaito shook his head. "So did I. It's confusing. After that moment she's trying to cut me off."

Mei suggested, "Fear or uncertainty might be holding her back. Maybe she is struggling emotionally."

Kaito conceded. " You may be right, but it doesn't make sense for her to shut me out completely."

Jin said. "There might be more to this, maybe she is dealing with something deeper."

Taro nodded sympathetically. Maybe you should give her some time, give her space but show you care without suffocating her."

Kaito took solace in his friends company, he thank them taking a deep breath. Thank you so much, talking about it has really helped

Mei smiled benevolently, we are here for you and support you at all times. But remember your own personal well-being comes first.

The group tome lightened from serious to playful as Kaito nodded.

Taro disrupted the quiet. His cheeky simile made everybody chuckle. "Guys remember that time I tried to cook to cook for the whole pack?" he asked.

Kaito laughed I'm sorry,but we're back here.

Mei gave a sidelong glance. "What a disaster it was!

"Hey, we learnt a valuable lesson: keep Kaito away from the stove,"Jin remarked without hesitation.
