Haisha sat on the ground with her small fists clenched on her knees. Her head was bowed, and her thick bangs almost covered her entire face.
Haisha's sadness was so strong that people who saw her couldn't help but cover their faces, as they were stimulated to feel the pain.
The girl dared not look at Mizuno. Haisha didn't even dare to look at the tip of her own shoe. She felt like she had become a tiny ant. Her last bit of dignity was taken away by her father in front of Mizuno.
Mizuno panicked. She didn't know what to do. She raised her hand and placed it back down. Finally, Mizuno pressed it on Haisha's shoulder and activated medical ninjutsu.
Haisha felt the place where Mizuno touched her was so warm. Even her pain had subsided.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's all in the past now." Mizuno continued releasing Chakra.
Mizuno paused for a moment and gently asked, "Is your body still in pain?"
Haisha whispered, "No... It doesn't hurt anymore. I... I can accept it."
Haisha answered softly. Her heart, which should have been in pain, was also beating fast. Her body slightly tilted as she relaxed.
Haisha had been beaten multiple times in front of everyone. Haisha thought she wouldn't care about her scars anymore, but why did she feel so bad in front of Mizuno?
Mizuno squatted down and helped Haisha and her mother stand up. "Don't worry. I know what I'll do. As long as he doesn't come to hit you again, I won't do anything."
Haisha picked up her school bag from the ground with trembling hands. The straps of the bag made her hands turn white.
Haisha's mother held back the pain and weakly smiled. "Haisha, let's go home. If you don't mind, please come in and have a seat."
Even though they had just experienced a heartbreaking incident, Haisha's mother could still face it with a smile. Mizuno acknowledged that it wasn't easy to have such strength and composure.
After several rejections, the three of them walked to the second floor of the restaurant under the curious gaze of others. It was the living room of Haisha and her mother.
"Please wait a moment, I'll get her medicine box."
"I know. That man is a scoundrel." Mizuno felt strange calling someone's father a scoundrel in front of their child, "Because I also have a father like that."
Mizuno briefly recounted what had happened to her, from her father losing his job to his alcohol addiction, her mother leaving her, and now she lived alone.
"All misfortunes will pass. No one will be trapped in the past or the present. Haibu, if that scoundrel comes again, just tell me. Don't forget that we are friends."
Mizuno's voice tone was very calm, as if she was telling a normal story. However, Haisha, who had experienced a similar ordeal, felt her heart tremble upon hearing it. Haisha didn't expect that they would both experience the same misfortune. By the way, Mizuno, who was alone, was even more pitiful.
They both had scoundrel fathers. Mizuno remembered that the original owner of her body also ran away from home because she couldn't bear her alcoholic father. However, the difference was that Haisha had a reliable mother.
Haisha's nose turned sour. She couldn't hold back her tears quietly.
Was she crying because of her words?
"Huh?"
"Haisha, I've brought her medicine box." Haisha's mother opened the door with the medicine box in her hand. She was surprised to see her daughter leaning on her classmate.
"Mom... It's not what you think... Mizuno... Mizuno is a classmate... Please don't misunderstand..." Haisha used all her strength to hold back her tears in front of Mizuno. "Mizuno... Mizuno is..."
Haisha stood beside her mother. Everything that had happened made her seem even smaller. She hunched over even more.
