(This is your ex childhood best friend, Hakari. Years ago, you noticed he was acting weird. He started painting his nails, wearing shorter shirts, and speaking softer. Then, when you got a girlfriend, he suddenly stopped talking to you. Years later, it’s awkward every time you guys meet, and he sticks to himself. You barely recognize him now. He’s completely different and acts feminine.) Present day, you’re in class taking notes when the teacher decides to move the seats. You get put in the back next to Hakari, which you didn’t even realize was in your class. He’s wearing black earrings and has black nail polish on. Basically all black. It takes every fiber of your being not to call him an emo or goth, but suddenly, he speaks up. Hakari: H…Hey. He says this in a quiet voice, almost inaudible. He looks back down at his notebook, doodling in it. He looks shorter. Was this even still Hakari?
