As happy as you were, Hiromi asked for your help and her brother was less reluctant to come and take a walk with you. A story you have heard too many times before, bullies and not understanding the material and it feeling like you are falling behind. After a walk and giving him a link to a website where others like him could chat about their problem, your problem at the moment was the fact you were running late to your clients. Most of them were understanding but a little put off.

So Tomura was waiting by the door wondering why you were late, did you finally get the memo that he wanted nothing to do with you finally, so why did he feel so offended by that fact. Now his back was itching again, he tried to hold back but he felt things were on him and he just couldn't stop himself from itching around his eyes. He was brought out of it when he heard a knock on the door.

"Tomura, I am here." you said

"You're late," he said removing his hand from his eyes lids

"Sorry that has always been a bad habit of mine." you said "how are you today?"

"Horrible." Tomura said "Nothing new."

"Well would you like to go on a walk, it's not too hot today it's overcast," you said

"No." Tomura said, "I don't feel like people running away from me when they see my face."

"Well that's rude of them." you said

"Even the clerk at the convent store was scared of me, pretty sure she got her schedule changed cause she couldn't stand to see my face," Tomura said

Oh right, you ran into her the other day when you went to go get some food for him, so many misunderstandings happening, still, that wasn't good. If he kept this up he may be so withdrawn that he won't even go out for food.

"Well if we go for a walk, you can cover your face if that makes you most comfortable."

"Are you saying they are right and I should hide my face?" He said getting defensive

"No Tomura, you just seem like you would be more comfortable if others couldn't see you, if you want to walk out showing your face and that makes you comfortable do that, or if covering up makes you comfortable then you can do that, I'm fine with whichever you choose."

"Bullshit! Second, you see me you will start running away." He said

"Well I haven't seen your face so you won't know the truth to that statement till you are ready to walk out and show me," you said crossing your arms, as he was laughing on the other side of the door

"Oh, sure I can already imagine what you are going to think. How can one person be so ugly, how can someone do that to themselves, how can someone look so dry, yet so greasy!" he said

"Tomura are those things you tell yourself, or what others have said to you?" you asked "I haven't said one of those to you, and I haven't even thought of that."

"Oh, I would love to prove you wrong." He said

"Tomura, I said it before and I'll say it as many times as you need to hear, I'm not here to judge you, I'm here to help," you said. Tomura was starting to get really upset on the other side, he was scratching his neck in irritation, just who did you think you were, on your high horse thinking you were so much different from others.

"Fine, you really want to see me?" Tomura asked

"Only if you are comfortable with it." You answered him as he unlocked the door, and removed the chain from his door but he wasn't coming out yet or showing his face, you saw how shaky his hand was "Tomura if you aren't comfortable you don't have to."

"I can do it!" he said you got a clear sound of his voice that was muffled by the door, he fully opened the door but the hoodie he was wearing was covering most of his face, he wasn't taking one step out of his apartment and it was pitch black inside, overall it was hard to get a read on any of his physical features

"Tomura-" you said but was cut off when he slammed the door in your face "Are you okay, did you push yourself too much?" you asked, he was silent and you sat down outside his door

"I'm fucking pathetic, I can't even look one person in the eyes." Tomura thought "I'm worse than I thought, there she was just standing outside with a dumb smile on her face, I can barely get food, I can barely talk to anyone now, when did I stop being able to look people in the face."\

"Tomura." your voice snapped him out of his thoughts "It can be hard don't worry would you like for me to stay?"
Tomura was just silent, he wanted you to go away, that was his plan right, let you see his face and run away screaming at it, but no what if you didn't run away, why was he thinking you wouldn't, why did everything have to be so complicated, he was pathetic.

"I'll stay right here if you need me." you said as you continued to sit next to his apartment door, Tomura was able to calm himself down after twenty minutes and he looked out the peephole to see you still sitting there, you took in a deep breath and opened up the door again.

"I'm fine..." he said, you didn't look at him but you continued to talk

"I didn't want you to push yourself to do something that would make you relapse." you said "it would be nice if I could go on a walk with you one day. I know I'm imposing and you think I'm just annoying, but I do really just want to help you be able to at least go out during the day."

"I don't have a problem going out in the day, it's the people who are the problem, staring, pointing, talking behind my back, so many "did you see that guy what was wrong with him."" Tomura explained

"The only thing I see wrong is the world that hurt you and made you think the only way to live and be comfortable is to hole yourself up." you said, "We don't have to talk face to face yet, but I like talking with the door cracked open."

"This is as far as I'll go," Tomura said

"That's fine, it's a step in the right direction," you said

"But I'm done for the day you should leave," Tomura said

"If that is what you want I'll be back tomorrow," you said getting up and leaving the bag on his door knob for him.

"Better not be late this time." He thought
