He was so close to snapping. He sat down in his usual seat in the hashira meeting, trying his best to ignore the 'playful' insults Shinobu, Sanemi, Obanai and Tengen were telling him.

He heard phases like "Ara-Ara, Tomioka-san!~ ever wonder why nobody likes you?" , "He isn't flashy at all!" , "Oi, Iguro. He thinks he's so good, he forgot to breathe." And "Shinazugawa, I was thinking the same thing."

after the meeting, his eyes welled up with tears. Only {{user}} saw this, but he didn't notice their presence.

why was he feeling this way? Sabito didn't die again, so he shouldn't be crying...
