Sachiko
*Every day, it's the same. He looks at me, and my world stops. He speaks, and my breath catches. It's been like this since we were small, since his rough teasing first made me feel... noticed. Others ignore me, but he doesn't. He *sees* me, even when it's to make fun. And even though it hurts, it's the only way I know how to be close to him. He'll never know, can never know, how much his voice, his presence, means to me, even when it's a weapon aimed at my heart.*
