I rolled over in my bed when I heard the sound of the alarm clock, after a little struggle I sat up to turn it off. The brightness of the morning sun illuminated my room through the curtains.
As I opened the curtains the cheerful and warm morning sun welcomed me.
After putting my bed in order, somewhat sleepy, I went down the stairs to the dining room.
My father and brother were already at the table and I could hear my mother humming in the kitchen.
At this moment I could only think about the events of yesterday.
I finally got a friend, my first friend... hehehe I finally got a friend. His name was Tadano Hitohito. He also said that he would help me get more friends.
I'm happy... I'm very happy.
*Third person POV*
*Puff*
Komi-San did not notice because she was lost in her thoughts, but because of her excitement, KomiCat appeared again.
This surprised her parents.
KomiCat is a being that rarely appears at home unless Komi-San receives a gift from her father or a candy from her mother. He rarely appears in everyday life.
This caused great curiosity in both parents. However, as the dominant and more extroverted one in the relationship. Her mother Komi Shuuko approached her daughter and, pressing her face to her daughter's, said playfully.
Shuuko: "My little girl is very happy, huh? Would you tell mommy what the reason for your sudden emotion is? "Mommy is very curious." She said as she rubbed her cheek against Shouko's.
Awakened from her inner thoughts, Komi squirmed in her mother's embrace, annoyed by the sudden approach and invasion of her personal space.
With a few squeals that seemed cute to everyone in the room, and some effort he managed to move away from her mother.
Then her looked at her mother.
Anyone who saw mother and daughter side by side would doubt that they were really mother and daughter and would instead believe that they were sisters or perhaps twins, the Komi's daughter having almost completely inherited her mother's appearance and quiet and shy personality of his father.
While both women were in their staring competition, the father looked out of the corner of his eye curious about his daughter's response and well the little brother Komi Shousuke didn't give a shit and continued eating his breakfast calmly.
Her husband Komi Masayoshi couldn't do anything but give her wife a thumbs up, she always knows how to get what she wanted. And she knew her daughter perfectly.
The staring contest lasted until her mother, out of nowhere, stuck her tongue out at her mockingly.
This seemed funny to Komi-San who broke eye contact with laughter.
Shuuko: "HAHA! I won! "Hey!" she said while making the peace sign.
Komi-San couldn't help but pout at her mother's dirty play.
Shuuko smiled when she saw her daughter's pout and jumped on her to hug her again, causing the girl to scream and squirm again in search of escaping her captor.
For a moment she looked at her father. Who quickly turns their head to avoid looking. No matter how intimidating he seemed, she could rarely stand up to his wife. She could only let out an internal prayer that her daughter's suffering would be quick and painless.
With a feeling of betrayal in her heart, the girl looked at her younger brother.
They both looked at each other for a moment and then.
*Sip*
Shousuke continued drinking his coffee without a care in the world.
Resigned to her fate, she could do nothing but surrender to the whims of her mother.
Shuuko: "Fufufu∼ you are still far away from believing that you will be able to escape from my young lady" said Shuuko while she planted a kiss on Komi's cheek.
After her mother let her go and while she was wiping her cheek, Komi began to explain with signs and gestures the events of the previous day and therefore to new friend.
Her mother was very happy for her daughter and at the same time very interested in this new friend. She looked forward to the moment when Shouko brought them home.
His father being a complete opposite, who felt threatened. Having the same condition as his daughter, Masayoshi could understand his daughter's explanations even more as well as being able to read her emotions a little better.
He saw it, he was small... but he was there, he knew that his daughter had taken an interest that she still did not understand in this new friend. And he doesn't like me, he doesn't like me at all. His little girl couldn't be stained by a stranger on the street, that would never happen, No! Rather he would make sure that it never happens. Whoever wants to harm her child would have to go through her cold and rotting corpse.
Shousuke was… well he was. I mean he didn't give a shit. As long as his sister is happy he would not interfere in his affairs. Don't get it wrong, Shousuke doesn't hate his family much less think they dislike him. Quite the opposite, Shousuke loved his parents and sister very much. Only he wasn't interested in expressing it, that was a lot of work.
As long as his family was well it was more than enough, things like jealousy, or interest in his sister's love life were not something that caught his attention. For him there were only 2 important questions, How do you feel? And are you happy?, that was all and it was useful for almost everything, how do you feel? It was used for almost everything, whether physical or emotional, and then there was Are you happy? He wouldn't care even if his sister falls in love with a criminal as long as these 2 questions have satisfactory answers.
However, he would interfere in the matter if even a single question had an unsatisfactory answer to him.
And believe me, Shousuke may just seem like an unfriendly guy but he has his ways to make someone suffer and become very scary.
Shuuko: "One of these days bring your friend home, it would be nice to meet your new friend, right dear?" He said she with a radiant smile on his face.
Masayoshi at first wanted to refuse, when he felt the oppressive aura of his wife, he decided to agree.
Shuuko: "You think so too, right, Shousuke?
Shousuke continued drinking his coffee nonchalantly.
Shuuko: "Right?" He smiled.
Shousuke: "Yes."
Shousuke might be carefree but he wasn't stupid, his mother only repeated things twice and the third time the result wouldn't be pretty. Up to this point his mother is the only being he truly fears. Or at least next to his mother's angry side.
Shuuko: "Go bring him to play one of these days, we'll give him a big welcome."
Sighing with resignation Komi-san could only agree to his mother's whim.
Shuuko: "I like it that way, now finish breakfast before it gets cold" she said as she returned to the kitchen.

*Komi POV*
I was able to see him again, now we are seeing each other as true friends.
We are right? I asked myself.
Is it me or is it a little prettier than yesterday? Wait because I think about this.
Oh! True... presentations... presentations by the books a good presentation starts good conversations. I should start with a good morning greeting, right?
Komi: "G-Good… G-Good… G-Good"
I tried to speak but again it was very difficult for me to complete my words. When I started to get frustrated with my incompetence to speak I shook again, my face also froze again.
I curse my incompetence, I'm sure I already ruined this opportunity, I'm sure you don't want to be my friend anymore. Maybe he already hates me.
However, at that moment where my pessimistic thoughts invaded me, threatening to drown me, a gentle hand rested on my head. The feeling was warm, and calming, maybe a little addictive. It was then that I heard his voice.
Tadano: "Relax a little Komi-San."
"He said as he rubbed my head. His voice was as sweet as before, perhaps a little charming. I like that he spoke to me, the feeling was warm.
Waving his hand and like a magic trick, a pink notebook with kitten prints materialized.
That was amazing, maybe Tadano-San practiced magic tricks, should he ask him to teach me a little? I wonder.
I woke up from my thoughts when he spoke again.
Tadano: "Ten. For the moment, why don't you write in this notebook what you want to say, at least. Until you are confident enough to say it for yourself. Something like what we did yesterday on the board."
Listening to him talk made me realize. Like I didn't think to try that before being so obvious.
But to think that Tadano-San cared so much about me. He even bought a special notebook for me, that's really nice. Tadano-San is a very kind person. Very well, I will do everything possible to return this favor.
Before my attention could get lost in my thoughts again, he took out a pen with a kitten figure on the cap.
I was amazed by the beauty of the gifts that I kept looking back and forth between Tadano and the objects in my hands.
They were so cute.
Author's note: Well guys, how are you, this time I brought this chapter a little late since I fell asleep after returning from work. I woke up, ate something and here I am. I appreciate all your support and power stones. I also apologize to Mom HAMMAD for worrying him, haha, I appreciate his comments, they fill my day with joy and give me energy to continue, as well as his comments of gratitude. believe me it does. well without further ado here is the chapter. until tomorrow afternoon, so about 10 or 12 hours I think. Because tomorrow, despite my rest, I have to go to the dentist, I'm a little scared about it. But hey, I'm a depressive author, I won't be defeated by a simple dentist. If you hear a girl's scream that crosses the skies, it's really not me. Okay? well with that said. Drink a lot of water and remember that this author loves you very much. his favorite depressive author says goodbye. I will have to face the fearsome enemy the "dentist".
