"WHAT YOU WANT", said Yuki.
"A BEARD" said Makoto.
"A MOUSTACH", said Akari.
"Me too man", said Neova from the distance.
"Haha you wish, you haven't grown an inch taller than me how are you supposed to grow a beard jackass", said Sakura pushing Neova down coming right up to the siblings.
"Word dude, they're kids", said Neova picking up Yuki.
It all fuzzles out, near the end, kids have a hard time remembering, ...
"What you gonna become Sakura", said Makoto while Sakura was holding Akari.
"A giiiiiiiiiiiiiiirrrrrlll and then all the men will look at me and tell me how cute I am", said Sakura this was his wanting to be a magazine model phase.
"You're GAY, and your still a perv too", said Neova pushing aside Sakura like a nudge.
"Yeah but then the girls will be jealous and girls are all lesbian nowadays anyways, I will have a better chance at getting one", said Sakura putting down Akari.
"Say that about skin color and your getting beat up in the sidewalk, your lucky sister Ichika isn't here nowadays she'd beat you up real good man, and that kids is the limit of my word count no more disturbing me anymore, I wanna mope all day and think about how depressing my life is now", said Neova leaving the room.
"He's bound to come back, he's just dramatic", said Sakura sitting down on the ground to come to the kids level.

Sakura, Ichika and Akari were related relatives, while the others were adopted in some way shape or form. They became a family, but Sakura and Ichika came by from time to time and stayed some nights because of the long distance between their real family and because their parents didn't have enough money to take care of four kids turned three after a death in the family. The twins Yuki and Makoto were family by Sakura and Akari, but distant reletives outside of the home, Neova was the only one aside Sakura who still saw them as family. But everything is status and small issues pile up somtimes.

"ATANUS YOU ARE TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE YOU CAN'T ASK FOR HUGS LIKE THAT, SHE WILL THINK WE PUT YOU UP TO THIS WHAT WILL YOU DO THEN", said our grandpa.
"SHUT UP OLD MAN, I WANTED TO GET TO KNOW MY SISTER MY GOD", said big brother Atanus.
"If their side of the family is so good why live here, I wanted a sister living here not a stranger, ..." said big brother before getting slapped across ablebody to be heard from a mile away.
"How many families are you in contact with, you in contact with my mom or dad, the ambulance that took them away, if this is the now with Ichika WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN A FEW YEARS WITH SAKURA THEN AKARI THEN MAKOTO AND YUKI", said big brother but he didn't leave. All our cousins were out, that is what grandpa told us to call them.

The little ones were eight around the time including Akari and the twins. Ichika never made an effort to try and talk to anybody that wasn't her family, not because she didn't like them, but she would rather be an adult and do things house wife's would do than be a member. Grandma Hana and Grandpa Hiroko were family, the good side of family while their distant relatives were a bit problematic, nobody could be trusted, it was a broken distant relatives bond between them. Atanus stayed for the next four years, when the kids turned teens, he left at the age of fourteen and them being between eleven and twelve. He left with the fond memories not the hate he had for their situation. After leaving he didn't even say a passing goodbye, just said chasing dreams. Sakura was devastated, the words of Buddha were listened too but even then the smallest amount of rememberance pained him. He didn't stop being his goofy self, as a front for the kids, he had no issue being around Akari and Ichika who talked to both of them occasionally. The twins were treated fairly too by Sakura and Akari saw them as her friends her best friends. His room was untouched and though they had a cry, it was accepted he ran away chasing dreams.

As Yuki woke up the more creative brother, while Makoto the more sound asleep one stayed asleep. He saw Neova having written a personal letter to all of them saying his goodbyes under his pillow was one too, and as he saw the footsteps outside his windows a final goodbye and maybe an upcoming hello ... Neova now having lost the name Atanus to his past jumps from the wodden railing out too the world grabbing his bike and running off just like he did in his past ... he was going ... he was going ... and now he was gone.
Yuki saw all of it and yet said no word, he understood, but there was a hole in his heart just like now there was for Makoto, Akari and Sakura. It was dead of winter and the black room contrasted too the white window and the white snow was something else. Fin.
