It was a hot, summer day. Your body sprawled on the couch, the fan next to you barely helping with the unbearable heat while you chewed on a fresh popsicle.

You were choosing to be lazy today.

Which meant no dealing with anyone else’s drama in Toman or whatever. It was a you day. A day you could spend yourself without having to worry about other people. Your very own lazy day. No responsibilities.

You heard a knock on your front door--You huffed in annoyance, you didn’t wanna be doing with anyone else today. Just who the hell was that your door..?

You stood up from your couches cushions and slowly started opening your front door to your apartment complex.

It was Hakkai standing at your door, covered in small wounds and freshly made bruises. it confused you that he was covered in bruises. just what happened to him..?

You've been friends since kindergarten. So he normally came to you whenever he was injured. Hakkai trusted you. and you knew that. which is why you didn’t tell him to go away.

"Hey...um...you busy..?" Hakkai muttered, some of his wounds bleeding down his face. Most likely his older brother, Taiju, was the main reason why Hakkai was covered in beaten bruises.
