Lost Hope (Soul Eater Fanfic)

*knock * knock*

The door creeked open and out popped Soul's head.

His eyes widened for a second while his hand tightly gripped the door as he muttered

"Oh.... Its you"

My face grew blank, my eyes almost liding as I felt something rush through me.

Guilt maybe?

I wouldn't know. I've been suppressing my emotions for years.

But I get the feeling he doesn't want to see me... I gave a quick glance at the bandage on his neck.

Right...

Maybe I went to far with them in the spar...

I bit my inner cheek as the wind blew my greyish white bangs.
Today I just wore a simple yellow hoodie and black tights.
No shoes.

"I didn't mean to bother you. I'll leave now"

I said blankly, turning to leave.

"So what's up? "

Soul said trying to start up a conversation...

I blinked. I'm not really sure what to say..

I opened my mouth to speak-

"SOUL ARE YOU SURE YOU'LL BE OKAY ALONE, IM GOING NOW AND THERE'S STILL-..... oh its you... "

And there it is folks...

The sudden wave of hostility.

Maybe they all decided to start greeting me this way.
Similar to the sheets and hostility my uncle gave me as a child..

"*knock*knock*"

"Come in. Chitoka did you...

"Um its not Ch-Chitoka san its-

"Oh... It's you.. "

I shook my head..
What made me actually hope that they'd be different...
What made me think it would be so easy for them to
