To be honest, things happened for a reason and he was beginning to learn that! Every word, every promise, every action made something occur and even if Kanoâs life was slowly filling with arguments from people. Though he did blame himself for everything, god forbid allowing anyone else to take the blame. He was a liar, of course and he could easily mark the blame on someone else. Though at the time he had stated it was all his so he took what came with it, the unsure behavior, the feelings that came with it. It was something he had to bear alone and even because of that, he still tried his best to be happy. Smiling like always as he made his way through the people, it was another mundane day within Hive City. Of course, having hid hood pulled down at one time had possibly made the blonde a bit self conscious.
His reason of having his hood up was always the same but another reason was added, he was unsure himself. Of course, he never had a face a mother could only love because he possibly made such an ugly one the last time he saw her. Could have been the reason why another female had hid his own. It was something that didnât want to be looked at. He understood that greatly, he did change his face all the time. Would he ever show his true one? Who knows. Maybe that face had shattered a long time ago. Realization would hit and he would forget who he was, it was only correct. To go into the world as someone else. That was how it was. He should have known that.
Though a pause in his steps, more so his thoughts as he heard his name. It was rather close wasnât it? Not many people had called him by the name but it was still a given. Maybe his heart wasnât ready because this was a big step for him, he was still a child so surprises werenât always his favorite! But maybe just this one time, he could take it for what it was. Turning upon the touching command and as he came face with light hues, blond strands of hair that was put up into a ponytail and even a jeweled bow which sparkle was akin to the femaleâs smile did Kano stare. He would have thought it was some distant dream, thinking that those turmoils from before were just a bad dream.
The female who had lost a single petal when they met in the dark. It was even something when she removed the hood from his head, this giving Kano an inkling of happiness. She could see him for what he was, right? He wasnât hiding behind the hood but with her reassurance stated from sight had the male not only needed his vision. For one, he didnât need that, he lied to himself enough right? Just like before as he raised his hand, he held it above her head before slowly inching it down. No flower. But he did touch her locks of hair, digits trailing against the substance. Retracting his hand and slowly moving it to grasp the one that pulled down his hood prior. Unlike last time when he removed his hand when it made contact with her own, he held it there for a bit. Feeling her warmth and this had brought a smile to his features.
âYou arenât my dream this time. You really are a student! Is that what weâre called here or is that just for you?â Maybe that was pushing it a bit. Maybe, but it wouldnât hurt to try. Using his other hand to be raised towards her face, the blonde placed it right on her cheek. She was there, he was deceiving himself for once.
âYouâre real. Youâre actually real. Youâre here.â
One could only deceive themselves for so long. But even if this wasnât the truth, he wouldnât mind deceiving himself for a little while longer. If this was a dream, allow it to be longer. And if this was reality, please, allow it to stay this way.
Even as he touched and held her hand, it wouldnât be the same unless. Hesitation took him before he found himself releasing her person and throwing his arms around her body, pulling the female into a hug. As his chin rested on her shoulder. The blonde had thought that he went too far but still.
But still. He could try for this right? Try for her. Besides, Sonia would have wanted him happy.
