OPEN STARTER
mutuals encounter chiyo!
Tumblr media
emotions swirl within her chest as her friend's hand remains wrapped around her wrist, overwhelming and maddening. chiyo wouldn't call herself an angry person, but frustration masks itself as such. it isn't because of them -- not really, even if their well-meaning actions have led to this. a shaky huff pushes itself past her lips as chiyo stares at their hand ( they aren't letting go, and she doesn't understand why ). it's her fault. it's always been her own fault.
" why do you--- why do you care? " chiyo can hear the sharpness of her tone, regrets it as her words cut through the air ( she doesn't want them to stop caring, is terrified of that, actually ). she's shaking her head, feels her heart pounding against her ribcage. " i don't... i just mean, i'm not easy. i don't make this easy. i know i don't, and i think you know that, too, so i don't get why you aren't letting me go. "
it's a bad day. that's all it is, and chiyo just wants to save them the trouble of handling her when she feels so... messy. gently she tugs at their grip on her wrist, chancing a glance at their face ( it's a mistake because her heart quivers upon being seen ).

" you don't need to take care of me, you know. it's not your job. "
