// Just holding your hand.

The back gat was open again, I decided to go through it as I passed the alley instead of going in the front door, with more than likely would have some homeless man's urine all over the stump by now. The back gate is usually closed, but as I walk through it I see that someone is holding it, and it's Haruka. He has very plush scarf on and a black buttoned breast jacket with red accents, he's wearing his work jeans and Docs and ear muffs, I noticed them as he greeted me. "Hey,"  I bowed my head in his direction, the chilling  wind not letting me talk properly, clattering I manged, "H-Hi, Y-You goin-ng to work-k?" he nodded, "No, I just got back, Chara, you're freezing,"but my clattering had worried him and took his scarf off and put it on me suddenly and we went inside through the back door. It lead up the corridor, the heat from the inside began to warm me instantly specially my left hand, it was warm it felt good. However this wasn't the bulding's heat, it was something else, then I noticed that Haruka was holding my hand, when did that happen? He wasn't removing it but instead brought me in closer to him we headed towards the elevator, he looked over and grinned. "You feeling better now?" I nodded, "I was worried you might really be a chiller and might need to take much more distractions

// I wish time would stand still, me like this, you like that."

I remembered not so long ago, I read a comment a friend made of me and of Haruka, she called him my Terry. I didn't understand it, until I asked Seiko, Seiko threw her entire collection of Candy Candy on my lap and I read them gradually as we toured in Hokkaido. I understood it then, that he was Terry, because he was just like him, his role in my life, but... did that make me Candy? Or Susannah? Because he stayed with Susannah? The reason I'm with Haruka now has nothing to do with him being guilty of me, what of? But, If I'm Candy, does that mean...that I'll lose him some day? Why didn't she run to Terry when she saw him on that stage? Why did it matter tht he had to stay with the girl who black mailed him into marrying her? Why? I do not understand it, if she really loved him she would have let him go, but i guess that's what Candy did, she let him go, because she loved him, because she felt guilty, because she felt her love reflected in another. the...

I met you that day, I lost my mind, I found my heart, and I could breathe again, calmly.

 I was never a fan of what people call ' soul mates .' In fact, I never believed the concept had any standing in the real world. It's a fantasy that people tell each other, like there really is one person curated for our every wish and want and need. I think we have a say in this world, not a soul mate, but a person, tangible and grounded, and on that ground we find that ours is even, not a mound or a hole around us, and we can walk together on that path. The souls we seek are like this, on the same path, and they are our chosen family. I think that's a stronger bond, family, I haven't had the best relationships with my own kin, but my friends and him ...I think I chose them as my family. I wasn't used to the type of attention Masake bestowed upon me, I wondered if it was my voice, people seemed to be captivated by it, I'm grateful for that, but is that what he was after? Perhaps it was my body that attracted him to me, I am on the heavier side of a medium ...

//he became the sun.

There were things about Los Angeles that I loved, living with crazy seiko who loved to paint on the brick wall and make instant foods was fun for me, Tomos constant sleeping waiting for his shift at the Hollywood cemetery was comforting I studied at work when t wasn't busy but I wasn't hitting my assignments and my sister was worried. The thing I didn't like about Los Angeles though was that Harris didnt live here he was still living in long beach because his college was full on dorms, so he took the metro here every day sometimes his car he had a very nice Volvo, I wonder if he has money not because I want it, but because I feel embarrassed and somehow below people with money but unlike those girls that made me feel awful about myself and my household income Haruka has never given me that vibe, I wonder what it is and does it have to do with the tightening on my chest when I think about him, I feel as I'm passing a big piece of bread that is stuck inside my throat and...
