Villain Is on Vacation

Spring had arrived, and the day was perfect for enjoying the blooming cherry blossoms.

The roads were lined with fully bloomed cherry blossom trees.

As one walked by, a gentle breeze brushed past, causing petals to float in the air. Under the clear light blue sky, the sight was breathtaking.

The stunning view of the cherry blossoms attracted many people to leave their homes and take a stroll.

Couples walked hand in hand, admiring the beauty around them, while families gathered in the park to enjoy a picnic.

The atmosphere was lively, and some people were singing and playing music, adding to the festive mood.

Nearby the park was a serene lake that added to the beauty of the area.

The surface of the water was covered with delicate flower petals, making it a mesmerizing sight to behold.

Despite the breathtaking scene, only one boy was there to witness it all.

He sat by the lake, admiring the beauty around him, grateful to have this moment of tranquility to himself.

A boy sat on the shore of the lake, propping his chin with his hands, lost in contemplation.

His hair, jet black with a slight brownish tint, fluttered gently in the light breeze.

His black eyes were piercing and deep, drawing the interest of anyone who looked, despite his young age of 4-5 years.

One could easily predict that he would grow up to be a handsome man, with such striking features.

However, his peaceful solitude was soon interrupted by the lively voice of a girl. "Hey, Rain, let\'s play!" she exclaimed, breaking his concentration.

The boy\'s eyebrows twitched, and he looked slightly annoyed at the interruption; he had been enjoying some quality time with his thoughts and didn\'t want to be disturbed.

"Nah, I\'d like to spend some time alone, Kaya." Rain shook his head.

"Please leave me be. You\'re invading my private space," he said firmly, without even turning to look at her.

Upon hearing his refusal, Kaya puffed her cheeks in frustration. "Geez. Then be alone." She grabbed the other girl\'s hand who was beside her. "Let\'s go somewhere else, Emma." 

"Kaya, we can\'t just leave him alone like this," Emma said, stopping Kaya in her tracks.

"But didn\'t he just say, he wants to be left alone?" Kaya asked, tilting her head in confusion.

She didn\'t understand why Emma was insisting on bothering Rain, who she knew nothing about.

Emma remarked, "Mama said we shouldn\'t leave anyone feeling left out. Guys like him tend to become introverted as they grow up," gesturing with her finger towards Rain.

Curiously, Kaya asked, "What does \'introverted\' mean?"

"I\'m not entirely sure, but Mama said it\'s not a good thing to be like that. So, we should try to include him. Otherwise, he will end up becoming introverted," explained Emma.

With determination, Emma approached Rain and struck up a conversation.

Meanwhile, Emma\'s and Rain\'s parents observed the interaction from afar, admiring the compassion and kindness of the children.

"Hey," Emma nervously called out to Rain. She was shy as it was her first time speaking to a stranger of the opposite gender with the same age group.

Angrily, Rain turned his face and snapped, "Didn\'t I tell you not to disturb me?"

But as he was about to shout in anger, he realized that it wasn\'t Kaya who had approached him.

Instead, he saw a small girl with pink hair pigtails looking up at him with fear in her eyes.

Although Emma was frightened by Rain\'s outburst, she bravely spoke up. "I just wanted to talk with you. Sorry for bothering you," she said in a low voice, audible to Rain.

"It\'s okay. I am sorry, too. I didn\'t have to talk like that." Rain felt bad to venting anger on someone. 

***

Rain sat alone in the park, relishing the peace and quiet, until a girl with a shy smile sat down next to him on the bench.

"Why don\'t she just leave?" Rain grumbled inwardly. 

She didn\'t introduce herself, and Rain wasn\'t in the mood to talk to anyone.

After some time, Rain couldn\'t take it anymore. "What do you want?" he asked curiously.

"I was just passing by and saw you looking lonely," Emma said, her voice soft and gentle.

Rain was surprised by her kind words, but he didn\'t want to show it. "Nah, I like being alone," he replied dismissively.

He didn\'t like crowded places or interacting with many people, so he always spent his time alone.

Emma noticed the guarded expression on Rain\'s face, but she didn\'t give up. "Are you sure? It\'s nice to have someone to talk to," she said, trying to be friendly.

Rain frowned for a moment. The people who took initiative to talk with where either hypocrites or people who pitied him. 

Rain hesitated for a moment, but then he nodded. "Okay," he said, feeling a bit awkward. He didn\'t want to be rude to someone. 

Emma\'s face lit up with a smile, and she extended her hand towards Rain. "Great, let\'s be friends forever!" she exclaimed.

"When did I agree to become friends? Whatever." Rain was shocked for a moment, but he didn\'t care about that. 

He shook her hand, feeling a warmth spreading through him that he hadn\'t felt in a long time.

Suddenly, Emma grabbed his hand and pulled him towards Kaya.

Rain\'s heart started to race. He had never expected the shy girl to take his hand like this.

As they approached Kaya, Rain\'s mind raced with questions. "What should I do? I don\'t even know her name. Should I pull my hand back? But wouldn\'t that be rude? Do friends hold hands like this?"

"See, I brought him, and we even became friends!" Emma said to Kaya with enthusiasm.

Rain was still lost in his thoughts when Kaya tapped his shoulder, bringing him back to reality.

"Huh? Where did that girl go?" Rain asked, confused.

"Geez, Brother Rain, you\'re quite biased. When I called you, you didn\'t come. But not only did you come, you even became friends with someone you just met," Kaya said, folding her arms and staring at Rain.

Rain shrugged, feeling a bit embarrassed. "I don\'t know what came over me," he said.

"Okay, but do you even know her name?" Kaya asked, causing Rain to look at Emma with a puzzled expression, hoping she could answer.

Emma realized that she had gotten ahead of herself and had not even introduced herself properly.

She held her ears and made a sorry expression, feeling embarrassed.

Observing their behavior, Kaya guessed what had happened and shook her head in frustration. "As expected from both of you," she said.

Emma and Rain both looked down, feeling ashamed of their actions.

"Okay, let me introduce both of you properly," Kaya suggested.

She pointed towards Rain and said, "This is my cousin brother, Rain."

Then she pointed towards Emma and said, "And this is my best friend, Emma."

\'Emma,\' Rain mumbled Emma\'s name, trying to remember it properly.

Kaya called out to Rain, "Hey, Brother Rain!"

"Yes?" Rain answered, feeling a bit nervous. He felt something unpleasant was going to happen. 

"Now that you\'re here, let\'s play together," Kaya suggested, her face lighting up with happiness.

Rain frowned, thinking that he should return to his place. But when he saw Emma, he had a strange desire to stay.

"What are we going to play?" he asked curiously, trying to hide his nerves.

"Let\'s play House-House," Kaya suggested, smiling brightly.

Rain froze on the spot. He hated that game, but he couldn\'t go back now.

"Okay," he agreed reluctantly in the end.

Charles and Carla were happy to see their son interacting and playing with someone. 

However, after playing for sometime. 

\'Maybe I should have gone back.\' Rain really had urge to go back. 

He didn\'t like the game at all.
