❀ Six ❀
[If you're in the dining room tonight, you might find this kid sitting at the table, half of a chocolate cake in front of him. He's still holding his fork, but doesn't seem interested in eating right now.
Watch out, here comes a Sudden Moment of Maturity. Fitting, seeing as how he's now 18.]
❀ I guess that's the best birthday present I could have asked for, ne? For one of my friends to be safe at home. ❀
[Pause.]
❀ Everyone be extra-nice to Tama-chan, okay? He must be really, really sad. ❀
