*CRASH*
The violin crashed down the stairs, as a raven haired boy threw it down.
"SUNNY, I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID THAT!" A similar haired girl yelled, angry about what the black haired boy did.
"Mari please, I don't want to do this anymore!" Sunny cried back, with tears in his eyes.
"DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH THAT COST!" Mari yelled, with anger in her voice.
"ALL THAT EFFORT, JUST FOR YOU TO RUIN IT!"
"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID THIS, ON THE DAY OF THE RECITAL!"
Sunny tried to cover his ears, but Mari wouldn't stop yelling, the yelling pierced his ears that almost made him deaf.
"SHUT UP, JUST PLEASE, SHUT UP!" Sunny yelled back, aggressively to Mari.
"I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE, I WISH I WASN'T YOUR LITTLE BROTHER, ALL YOU DO IS MAKE ME PRACTICE, AND YOU YELL AT ME FOR MESSING UP!"
"I WISH I WOULD PUSH YOU OFF THESE STAIRS, AND KILLED YOU!"
Sunny covered his mouth after saying that in front of his sister, how could he say that to the sister that took care of him when they were young, the sister that saved him from drowning, the sister that always loved him no matter what.
He ran to his room before coming back with his backpack filled with binders, clothes, and a few toothbrushes. He then ran downstairs, stumbling for a bit before catching his footing. he went to the front door before unlocking it, he looked back to what was once a caring big sister before opening the door and running away.

A girl with a pink bow wearing a dress was watching Tv, she was excited for the recital from her friends but heard a knock on the door.
"Don't worry I'll get it!" The girl yelled, as she got up and ran to the door before opening it.
The door revealed Sunny, he was wearing a black T shirt and grey shorts with bags on his eyes. He had a backpack with him and hugged the girl.
A sniffling sound was heard as the boy cried onto her shoulder, she let go of the hug before realizing who it was.
"Sunny?" The girl said, with a confused tone. "Is that you?"
"Yes, it's me Aubrey." The boy responded, with a tearful expression. He then went to the couch to watch what the girl was watching.
He wanted to stay for a while since he ran away from home, he knew Aubrey was the only one to trust.
A squeaking noise was made, the boy looked at what appeared to be the Girl leaning on his shoulder, he started to get comfortable knowing that life is going to change ever since this moment.

January 14th, 200X
Winter break was over, the now 14 year old Sunny was running down the hallways looking at the floor running outside. High school was hard, he got average grades due to the incident 2 years ago.
But also, he was committing vandalism, robbery, and fighting with kids he didn't like in alleyways and the back of the school.
He always brought Aubrey with him, since she knew Sunny hanged out with her very often, not only that participate in what he was doing. Aubrey stole some pink hair dye yesterday and planned to dye her hair with it.
The two were planning to vandalize Fix it, a flower store, not only that steal some flowers there as well. Both kids ran to the front and spray painted all over the surface, Sunny did most of the work since he was good at drawing, while Aubrey was the lookout.
Before Sunny got started, a timid voice tickled his ear saying,
"Sunny is that you?"
Sunny jolted as he looked at the blonde haired boy wearing a flower crown, he wore a green polo shirt and beige shorts.
"Basil, what are you doing here?" Aubrey said, aggressively whispering to the flower boy as she walked to Sunny's position.
"I was going to buy some flower seeds for my Garden, also why is Sunny holding a spray can?"
Basil then pointed at the spray can being held by Sunny, not noticing what they were doing.
"Basil," Sunny said, politely pushing Aubrey away to talk to him. "Have you ever heard about minding your own business?"
"So how about you get lost and walk away, hm?"
"Sunny, what happened to you?" Basil said, scared at how Sunny was acting. "This isn't the Sunny I know, what happened?"
"I said, get lost."
"But Sunny we used to be best friends, please it's been 2 years since we tal-"
"I JUST SAID, GET LOST!"
"WHY CAN'T YOU FOLLOW WHAT I'M SAYING, I DON'T WANT YOU HERE!"
"Sunny, please just tell me why you are acting like this?"
"Your sister is waiting for you an-"
"HOLY SHIT, THIS IS WHY NO ONE LIKES YOU!" Sunny yelled back at Basil, with rage in his voice. "ALL YOU ARE IS A NUISANCE, WHO LOOKS AT FUCKING FLOWERS ALL DAY, AND THINKS THAT EVERYTHING WOULD BE FINE, NO WONDER WHY YOUR PARENTS LEFT YOU!"
"BECAUSE YOU'RE ALWAYS A DISAPOINTMENT, EVEN TO ME BECAUSE YOU COULDN'T HELP ME TRY TO ESCAPE SOMEONE WHO I THOUGHT WAS MY SISTER BUT SOMEONE WHO GOT ENGULFED TO THEIR OWN PRIDE AND EGO!"
Sunny was surprised from what he had said, he didn't mean to, he said all of this because his former best friend talked about the prideful and egomaniac sister.
Basil was on his knees, sniffling before looking up at Sunny, he had tears in his eyes, he got up and ran away. Sunny put his hand out but it was too late, he was too far to get his attention.
"Sunny." Aubrey said, after hearing the commotion. "Is that why you were at my front door that day?"
"Yes." He said. "That's why."
"Do you promise to not tell anyone what happened?"
"I promise."
----------------------------------------------------------------
Four months later....
Sunny was casually walking to what was once their old hangout spot, they used to have picnics here but due to the incident, everyone drifted off. He hasn't heard from Basil for a while even calling his home number in order to apologize.
However, when he passed by the church, he noticed the gates were opened. He then walked to the graveyard and saw a freshly made patch of dirt. He then walked to it before seeing a gravestone, he then crouched down to see what the stone said before seeing the text saying,
"BASIL AMATA"
"The town bloomed when he was here."
Sunny was shocked, he didn't know that Basil died. Why wasn't he told that he died, it could have been a dream, it must be. But, it wasn't a dream. He got up and ran away from the graveyard, back to Aubrey's house.
