Are we there yet Ren?
Almost there just couple of hundred meters left.
We have walked almost an hour now.
Yeah told you it took long to come to my house.
Yea yeah true.
I looked around the forest again to look if i spotted the red blinking things, but they were nowhere to be seen.
Raijin.
Yea?
Can you keep your eyes open for one of these red blinking things?
Hm? what do you mean by red blinking things?
Well to be honest i don't know, i keep seeing them all around the forest. When i try to walk to one of them to see what they are, they just keep vanishing somehow.
Oh? alright i'll keep my eyes peeled for them.
I wonder what Ren means by these red blinking things… But somehow it does ring a bell in my mind what they are, it feels like i know what he means but still i don't. I'm also scared about why i can't remember my memories. Who am i? What were i doing before today? Do i have a family? Where do i even live? I can't remember anything.
Ten minutes go by.
Hey Raijin we're here.
Finally feels like we walked for hours.
Haha, yeah it's a long way between my home and the city.
Hey Ren, do you have any family?
Yep, i've got my mom.
Your mom huh? are you sure she will let me stay?
Yeah she chill dude, she lets me have my friends over for days, she very kind as well. The best mom you could ever have.
That sounds nice.
Well come on in!
Thanks!
Ren and Raijin walked inside Ren's home and soon they found out that Ren's mom was still
not home.
Come on be quiet my mom is probably home.
Okay…
Go up stairs quickly but silently so she doesn't catch us
Ren and Raijin ran up the stairs quietly but swiftly without getting noticed. Raijin who was hungry told Ren if they had any food because he was starving.
Ren, do you have any food i can eat?
Yeah i have a sandwich my mom made for me for school today that i didn't eat and put in the fridge, i can get it for you, wait here.
Alright thanks!
Ren walked down the stairs to not wake up his mom and walked to the kitchen to get the sandwich for Raijin.
There we go Ren let's be quiet now, close the fridge and don't wake up mom. Wait now that i think about it, is my mom even home? when i left she wasn't, has she came back?
Let me check.
I walked towards my mom's bedroom door and opened it so carefully and precisely even a snake wouldn't even notice it.
Huh she isn't home? where is she?
I brushed it off and thought we don't have to be quiet anymore at least.
Hey Raijin! You can come down my mom isn't home.
Raijin came running down almost falling while going down the stairs.
I thought you said your mom wasn't home!
Yeah so i thought as well but she is still away.
Do you know where?
No.
Oh alright.
Here your sandwich.
Thanks so much!!
Raijin ate the sandwich like he hadn't eaten for days. Almost like a lion eating his meal.
Calm down Raijin or it might get stuck in your throat. I said laughingly
Oh y- yes yo- your right said Raijin while having his mouth full and almost spitting everything out.
Well just enjoy it, then after go up and be there, i don't know when my mom will arrive. So let's not risk it.
I thought you said your mom was cool about having friends over.
Yes i did and it's true, but i mean like i have to tell her before hand and i didn't tell her that i would just go outside in the middle of the night and find a friend that is covered in blood and shit (no offense) and bring him home. She would actually make me a sandwich if she knew that i left the house at the middle of the night!
Why would she do that? Aren't you allowed to go outside when it's dark?
No.
Oh she then she is stricttt.
Nah not that much, she only strict about me going out at night otherwise she is more calm then a turtle.
Ohhh i get ya.
Anyways eat it and beat it up.
Alright jeeezzz.
Raijin after that went to my bedroom and slept there, i shortly followed after him. But before i did i went outside again to see if i could stop these red blinking things but once again there was no avail. So i went back inside and put my shoes back in the shoeplace, put my jacket on the hanger and went to the toilet to brush my teeth.
After that i was done, i went in my room to see Raijin sleeping peacefully, i went in to my own bed and slept. After all i got school tomorrow.
————————————————————
47 minutes later.
What the hell? What was that? Probably a dream, it was so scary though. Oh there is Ren, sleeping don't know why but i feel like he will be a friend that will be very valuable to me in the future.
But *yawns* i'm tired i'm going to go back to sle-
I'm telling you John he's asleep.
What the? Who's voice is that? Is that Ren's mom? probably… But who is she talking to? I didn't hear Ren mention a dad.
I want to hear this.
Raijin quietly stands up and walks and opens Ren's door, he then tippy toes to the stairs and listens in.
I told you John, he's asleep for the third time.
Yeah i heard you Jessica. Let me see him so i know that he's okay and in a good condition then.
John really? Again?
Yes again Jessica and you know exactly why, we need him to be in the best condition for it, that's what we signed for.
Jessica *sighs* fine only for a minute though and be quiet. If he wakes ups and sees you he will be suspicious like the other time.
Alright i promise to be quiet.
Good. Come.
Raijin panics and accidently makes a sound.
What was that says John.
Probably just the wind, you scaredy cat.
Raijin tries to be quiet while Jessica and John's comes up the stairs. He tippy toes back into Ren's room trying to go back to his bed. But then he remembers if Ren's mom sees him Ren will be in trouble. But if she and this John finds out he heard them he probably will be in more trouble! So he decides to just fake sleep.
John comes infront of Ren's door and opens it.
There he is says John while whispering.
Be quiet or else he will hear you.
Alright i get it Lady. But wait who is that?
Hm? what do you mean?
There is someone else on the corner sleeping as well.
Oh, ehh probably his friend.
His friend? why does he have his friend over?
Oh come on John can't he have his friend over? is that a new rule you guys came up with now?
Alright, alright your right i'm too strict now.
Your minute is over now, time to go.
Fine, Fine.
John closes the door and Raijin opens his mouth to breathe, he held his breath to all of that just to not get caught.
What the hell. WAS THAT?
