i finally figured out the plant once it started sprouting it's leaves.
it's a sunflower.
it is army's favorite flower, he told me that sunflowers follow the movement of the sun and when there's no sun the flowers look at each other, which i already knew. he said he likes the flower because the sun makes him happy, and so does this flower.
coincidentally, he is a sunflower...
in chinese culture they are considered intelligent, auspicious, and good, just like army. it also symbolizes long life happiness... which i wish army always had.
the sunflower is now planted in his garden, just so it can grow happier and healthier.

i started cutting up bread when suddenly another earthquake came. i didn't know where asagao was and i started freaking out. i didn't want anything happen to her, that's literally army's baby that im responsible.
i found her on the couch clinging to the cushions in fear, i grabbed her and hid under the closest table.
we were unharmed... or so i thought. i saw blood on the persian cat, thinking that she got hurt under the table. but it was actually me...
my arm was cut open by the knife i cut bread with.
