Chapter 2 : New Friends Accuired!!

I arrive at Walmart and find a parking spot, I shut off my car, and then proceed to get out of zed car. I make sure that I locked it before walking into the store. the first thing I head for is the food aisle. after I arrive at my destination I swiftly find all of my desired items. I look over to see where the milk would be and I spot a particular situation breaking down. right in front of the refrigerators with the milk, I needed in it are 4 kids, which of 3 are making fun of 1 that is sitting on the floor crying.

I frown at the situation happening in front of me. I make a start for the refrigerators, not because they had the milk I needed, but because there was a little boy in need, and people were just bating an eye to it and going on about their day like nothings wrong with bullying a little boy!. " Boys aren't supposed to cry! " the tallest boy shouted. " yeah your not a boy you a weak little girl! " the chubby one shouted next, but before the 3rd and skinny boy between the 3 could say anything, I said this. " Hey! you boys obviously don't have a sense of pride and honor! " " the only one here without any honor is this weak little girl! I mean come on! he's wearing pink! and pink is for girls! " said the skinny one, then the chubby one chirped in, " Weak one's at that! " and then all the boys but the one crying on the floor curled up in a little ball started to laugh.

" That's enough! " I said and suddenly the 3 boys got quite quiet. I guess they all thought the same thing ' i never thought this girl had the guts to raise her voice for anything ' i may seem very nice and gentle, one who wouldn't normally raise her voice above a normal talking level, and frankly I am! I just really dislike when others bully others and anyone around just bat's an eye and say's " Welp the only reason why the boy is in this predicament is that he ain't tough enough all the boy needs to do is just man the hell up! " and then go on about their day.

the boys just stood there with what I would say to be blank faces but more full of surprise and astonishment. I took notice of this and said " Well what do you boys have to say for yourselves? those who treat others with little respect don't deserve respect themselves "I said giving them even more shock than they already had. while the boys just stood there I walked over to the little boy crying on the floor and held out my hand as if to say " come on don't be sad, I'm here for you! "

the little boy took note of this and got up from the floor, but instead of taking my hand, he ran up and hugged me. I couldn't help but smile a little bit at this cute little boy hugging me. I heard the boys go " man I guess the fun is over " said idiot 1. " yeah ' said idiot 2. " let's just get out of here before that woman comes back " idiot 3 said. what women? I thought to myself as they begin to walk off.

" Oh no, you don't! " I heard a slightly deeper voice than mine say. I turn around to see what was up, and the first thing I see is this tall woman who looks around my age with short black hair crystal blue eyes, and a heart tattoo on the side of her cheek. she picks up one of the boys and looks him dead in the eyes. " Well look what we have here, another one of you prideful little boys that think that they can pick on my little brother and get away with it! " you could see the cold glare and aura that this woman was giving off clear as day, and let me just tell you if looks could kill that little boy and his friends would have instantly been shot dead cold from this lady deadly stare. I wasn't scared like the little boys were, I picked up the little boy still clinging on to me and walked over towards the women.

" get out of here you little runts! " the women said as she roughly put the boy back on to the ground which he had a split second of relief on his face before looking up at the women one last time to see that he was about to get his but kicked if he didn't leave when he had the chance to do so.

" excuse me," I said after the 3 boys ran off into another part of the store. " Hm?.. " the women replied " are you perhaps the older sister of this little boy here? " I ask. " Yeah and? Who's asking!? " the women ask me in return. " my name is Rioma monome, You? " I state my name and then ask.

" Sakura Lily... " what's it to ya? she asks again. " I would like to thank you for helping me stop those little boys they were quite mean...this little boy did not deserve that kind of treatment just because he likes to wear the color pink! " I say with a smile wider than a mile. " Well the boy is my little brother, why wouldn't I help? " she says with a slightly calmer tone than before. " You looking for accommodation of some shit or what? " she asked with a very skeptical tone. " No ma'am," I said. " so many people just bat an eye to such things and they can always end in such a horrible way! " I said. " It's not right to treat someone with disrespect or a different than how you're treated just because they aren't like you or even like the same things as you! " I said again. " Sakura... " Huh? " you can call me sakura from now on got it? " " u-uh alright sakura L- " I started to say before getting cut off mid-sentence. " SA - KU - RA! " she said. " Call me sakura! " she said again slightly irritated this time.

" a - alright sakura then! " I said getting it right this time. sakura's face softened up at this gesture. she then held out her hand for a while before giving me a look as if to say " Shake the danm thing already! " so I shook her hand and went to go and give her Lil brother back to her.

the second I went to go and pull him off he shouted " No! I wanna stay and play with ms. Nice lady, sakura! " " eh!? " I said. " Huh.. well I guess there's no helping it... " sakura said. well, ms. Roma I and you are gonna have to get along from now on I guess... " said sakura. " huh? Roma? " I ask. " yeah that's gonna be your nickname for me from now on, got a problem with it? " sakura says quite sinisterly. " n-no not a thing! " I said. " good! " said sakura.

" well what are you here for Roma? " sakura asked me. " Oh!, well I just moved into the neighborhood down the street from here and I don't have much of anything to decorate my house with, let alone any food... " I say while I push my cart with the little boy in it. I managed to find out what the little boy's name was, he's named akouski lily! " Oh! I and sasa live down the street too! " akouski said. " hey sasa can I go with Rara some time to play? " akouski asks sakura. " I don't care, it's all up to Roma akouski, " sakura said. " well I live alone but if he wants to come over and play I have a brother that has a son around akouski's age that he can play with, " I said " b-but only if you want, " I said. " I already told you I don't care, besides I can tell that you can't even hurt a fly with the type of person you are! " sakura said. " huh? how do you know that I could be two-faced or just as mean as anyone else in the world and you wouldn't know!? " I asked hoping that she would see my point about her not caring about akouski coming over to my house and playing with the kids of strangers. " I can just tell, your aura and the way you act and look if very trustworthy, these are the aspects of someone others can trust and the fact that you even helped him with bullys and are willing to let him play around your house with your families kids without a hint of hesitation all just confirms and clears my doubts and worry about you... " sakura said. " doubts and worry " I questioned.

" your kindness and purity can be taken advantage of by anyone, for example, me, I could just be using you to get my annoying little brother off of my back because I don't want him around constantly bothering me," Sakura said. " uhh... " I said out loud without notice. " exactly where it is! you take what people say to heart and believe what others say so easily, that is not a good quality in the real world " sakura explained.

" like just now, you got real quiet when I said that I might just be using you to get my brother off of my back " sakura continued to explain. " being nice is not a bad factor but what is a bad factor is being too trustful of other people," sakura said. " there are others that would decide and then backstab you just for the hell of it, it ain't right but it's just what people do now in days, y'know!? Sakura said.

" I admit that I ain't the nicest person, but when you really get to know me that's when you see the real me..... I have to be strong, witty, and untrusting, of others just so that I don't put myself and akouski in danger " sakura said and it made my heart melt at her words filled with wisdom and truth. I can tell that in this moment between the 3 of us that there is nothing but the truth that comes from the women's mouth and now I know why I am so fond of her, she down right honest and a complete and utter genius! I thought to myself.

and with that we finished up getting our things and started on the home since it was getting quite dark. " well it looks like I have just acquired some new friends and really good ones at that! " I thought to myself with a smile on my face.
