@MrStealYoSleep Amber was starting to properly relax finally and it felt nice to have the knot in his stomach settle a little.
"Dinner sounds good...I'll eat anything really, I dont know what most stuff is like."
@MrStealYoSleep Amber shook his head a little and cleared his throat to stop the tears from happening. He took a couple of deep breaths and nodded at the man beside him.
He couldn't really speak for fear of his voice cracking again and didn't want to cry.
He looked Seo in the eyes -
@MrStealYoSleep - people...cold, whatever." He looked up at the man beside him.
"I'll do anything not to go back out there. I cant..live like that anymore..there wasnt a time i wasn't scared."
@MrStealYoSleep And relaxed a little.
He spoke through what were sobs he was desperately holding back. He didn't want to cry anymore.
"I just...wanna know how to live a normal life. I don't want to die out there. I really don't. I'm scared that if I stay out there something will kill me -
@SeoToshiaki -he paused, trying to get over his embarrassment, squirming a little where he sat, "I.. I cant read very well...at all." He said this with his head down, unable to look into Seos eyes, tears welling up from his embarrassment.
"I wanna have a better life, work hard, I'm willing
@SeoToshiaki Amber watched the man write, but trying to read it upside down was impossible for him.
"Yeah, I was 11 when I got kicked from my house, I had no way of going back to school then, not that I wanted to go back to that one."
He put emphasis on the particular school. He hated it
@SeoToshiaki Amber listened intently to every word Seo had to say. He agreed with all of them, he just had to articulate it.
"Honestly, yes. I'm so so sick of my life." He looked down at his tea and took a sip. It was really nice and warmed him up.

@SeoToshiaki Amber realised very quickly that..."I really don't know..I guess I'll try either." He smiled nervously as he sat at the table and waited.
As Seo sat in front of him, Amber wrung his hands together waiting to see what they would start talking about.
@SeoToshiaki Amber only realised the day as he said it. He didnt even really have a comprehension to what month it was never mind what day. He kept track of the years by counting each new year as it went past. Seven years like this...
"I mean...I can talk now if you'd like," he said softly.
@SeoToshiaki Amber opened his eyes and rubbed them gently as he sat up. He adjusted the tshirt he was wearing as it came up slightly over his face, drowning his thin frame in cotton.
"Hi Seo, how are you?" he asked politely, yawning slightly.
@SeoToshiaki Amber awoke slightly at the feeling of someone shaking him. He couldn't quite open his eyes yet but he could hear it was Seo.
He lay still for a few more minutes til he heard the man come back into the living area and sit down.
-
@SeoToshiaki - only waking a few times when he would accidently aggravate the bruises on his body, but falling asleep again in a matter of seconds. It was a peaceful sleep, the type he wasn't used to.
@SeoToshiaki Refreshed by it, he washed it, not wanting to leave a mess and make Seo angry at him, and sat in the sitting room. After only a few minutes, the tiredness took over and he fell into a deep sleep on the couch, dead to the world for the day.
