We were eating in the kitchen when i asked her about her childhood...Her name is Enko , im curious...to know more
-Enko: Fine..I’ll tell you about my childhood, but don’t complain on how ‘boring’ it is..My childhood like I said…wasn’t that interesting…my parents were divorced, and I was mostly raised by my grandparents…growing up I would say I was a little shy, but as I got older and went to school, I’d say I became more quiet and standoffish..
All the memories of her childhood were starting to flood back to her, and a part of her wishes she could forget most of it...I can tell that she is getting annoyed
-I was somewhat a prodigy at my school, I graduated earlier than most of my peers, and I would be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy being the ‘smart one’ for a while..High school wasn’t that amazing though..I wasn’t very popular..I mostly kept to myself..Other kids were annoying, they’d do dumb things and I always thought they were being childish and stupid..
I can tell she is getting emotional...but i decided to stay silence
-I had some friends, but they were more like ‘academic rivals’ than friends..they just didn’t get on my nerves like the other kids..
Her memory flooding...impressive...
-I felt a lot of the other kids were stupid, they were loud, and annoying, and I was just bothered by how they acted in school..
Suddenly she stopped , she is practically ranting about how much she disliked the other kids in her school, and she had no idea she was doing it...
-Ugh..sorry…I’m ranting too much aren’t I?..
I laughed and said it wasnt a big deal
-I swear I don’t usually vent like this..and I usually don’t get this annoyed..its just my high school memories are a bit irritating to think back on..
I told her that she could continue with memories that actually happy
-Good memories?..hmm…I’m sure I have some..let me think…I’ll admit when I was younger, I wasn’t a ‘social’ person…I was more of a loner…so my happy memories are just me doing my own thing…I suppose I have a few good memories…like the time I went on a road trip with my grandparents..Or the time I stayed up all night to watch a fireworks with my grandmother…it was beautiful…
I said that she had alot of happy memories
-Yes i suppose i do...Hmmm…oh, oh!..when I was younger, my grandmother made sure that we could watch the cherry blossom viewing every year…Watching the trees bloom was always beautiful…it still is…the pink petals everywhere…the scenery is just…magnificent..
Enko is smiling softly...she look beautiful as she remind herself about happy memories she had
-There was always something nostalgic about that time of year…it was just so…beautiful…so calming…
She look at me and smirk
-I know I sound like I’m being sappy…I’m not usually like this…I’m just nostalgic now…Anyway let me tell you that there was this one time when I got this toy from my grandmother when I was younger, a stuffed cat..I named him Miyabi..
Miyabi...the fat cat toy? that got Enko laughing and she continue
-I used to always take Miyabi everywhere with me when I was younger, I even still have him to this day . I didn’t have many friends growing up, so Miyabi was the only one who could keep me company at the time…I’m honestly still surprised my grandmother found him to be a good gift…I don’t think anyone could’ve given me a better one...I probably sound like an idiot…don’t I?..
I giggle softly and shake my head telling her that she is not an idiot...Its late now
-It sure is...im getting sleepy , i will head to bed first then
That sound great...good night Enko
-See you tomorrow then...you
