23. Antique (1/2)

hell yeah kahiro can be your spirit animal b)

"oh my gosh, look at this!" a girl squeals, five others rushing over and almost immediately 'oohing' and 'ahhing' at the object the first girl had been so excited about.

kahiro hangs back alongside another girl who looks a little exasperated, chuckling to herself. it's after club practice and the girls of the softball team have nabbed her, insisting that the whole team goes out together-she's always considered a prize member of teams even with how little time she spends with them. then again, she's been on first name basis with everyone since the start of middle school (and sometimes even earlier) so it's easy to include her.

"god, they should be more quiet than this…" the third year beside her groans, kahiro still watching the other girls in silent amusement. there's another shriek and the third year pinches the

idge of her nose before she storms over to the group, roaring that they shouldn't cause such trouble for the shop keeper who is laughing nervously.

kahiro's about to join them all but her attention is caught by something glinting in the light on a shelf near her and she wanders over, curious. on a stand lies what looks as though it is a very old necklace, an antique she'd even go to say. the weathered silver chain has a pendant hanging off of it. in the middle of it is an stone (moonstone, she reads off of the label beneath the piece of jewellery) and it is surrounded by intricate silver fishes, which look as though they're jumping off into the air.

there is one fish that catches her eye however. it's jumping off the very top of the jewel and, whilst the edges seem slightly more weathered than the others, there is a another small bit of moonstone position in the middle of it.

before she can catch up to her actions, she finds she's already taken a photo of it on her phone, typed out a message and hit send.

in his house, tsuna feels his phone vi

ate in his pocket as he's doing the dishes and, after wiping one of his hands, he unlocks it, eyes scanning over the photo he's received.
