some spare time — eru + komaeda
daikon-tan
{♣} — It is just yet again another sparkling sun-drenched afternoon when Komaeda had stepped out of the house in a hurry to get to work. Those thick strands of hair at the salon aren't going to sweep themselves away after all. His grandparents have always been against the idea of him taking the afternoon to evening shift on weekends but Komaeda could see no other way to earn quicker money. Besides, it's not like he has much friends to spend his weekend with.
After calling out his goodbyes to his guardians, Komaeda closes the door and pulls the hood of his jacket up over his head as he hurries down the sidewalk to head for the bus station. However, a certain scene passes by the corner of his vision and the pale-haired boy slows his steps down before sliding his attention over to where a girl is standing by herself with her tilted slightly up to the large tree before her.
Komaeda follows her gaze and catches sight of a backpack hanging on a branch. How in the world did that get up over there? Nevertheless, he had already seen her situation and it would be heartless of him to leave her be. After catching a glance at his watch and assuming that he still has more time before he could make it to his shift, he stirs his direction to the girl and taps her shoulder as soon as he reached her.
"Hey miss," he offers her what he hopes is a warm smile. "is there something wrong?" He almost feels ridiculous for asking such a question but it is based on observation that most people ask that first in spite of already acknowledging the situation.
