2 weeks later...

i've been staying with taro ever since that day and things have gotten better.

i've gotten a job at akedemi high as a teacher, my students love me, and i've been taking self defense classes just in case... anything bad happens.

my PTSD has gotten better! i've been able to walk past the alley without having a panic attack.

everything has gotten better. today i get to go see my mother. it's been a while but i'm looking forward to it.

budo hasn't tried to reach me, but i'm okay with that.

i grab my purse off the counter before stooping down to pet taro's cat, Lua.

clever name.

but he named her that because of her eyes. for some odd reason when taro saw them he thought of the name.

she purrs under my touch making me chuckle.

"alright,you be a good kitty while i'm gone." i say picking up my keys.

she meows in response.

i smile at her before going to the garage where taro  is waiting.

"morning taro." i greet walking towards him.

my smile soon turns to a frown when i see his tie isn't tied right.

he gives me a small embarassed smile.

i sigh shaking my head before coming over to tie it.

as i tie it he stares at me, pink dusting his cheeks.

i smile a little before meeting his gaze.

"what?" i ask smiling.

he quickly averts his eyes.

" ehum! i-i just wanted to s-say thank you." he says quickly avoiding my gaze.

i chuckle before finishing.

"come on, i got to get to the school." i say walking to the passenger side.

he nods quickly before getting in the drivers seat.

we pull out the garage and start towards the school.

"h-hey y/n?" taro says getting my attention.

"hm?" i hum in response flipping through some graded homework.

" o-on your lunch break do you want to go to lunch with me?" he asks looking forward.

i tense.

"u-uh yeah sure." i stutter.

he lets out a breath.

" here we are!" he says pulling up in front of the school.

"thanks taro!" i say before getting out the car.
