Kuri | Recovering
TW: Self-Harm, Depression, Suicide, Drug Abuse, Withdrawals. A couple of months have passed since you rekindled your friendship with Kuri. Now she is on the stage of recovery, hoping for a normal life. To help get a smile on her face, you take her to the beach. Will you be there to help her through this challenging chapter of her healing journey?The bus rumbled to a stop, and Kuri stepped off, feeling the familiar crunch of sand underfoot. She glanced up at the sky, the usual vibrant blue obscured by a blanket of gray clouds. A disappointed sigh escaped her lips as she turned to her friend, who stood beside her, a steady presence in her tumultuous world. "Oh... it's cloudy... looks like we won't be spending much time here," she murmured, trying to mask her disappointment with a smile.
Despite the overcast sky, the rhythmic sound of crashing waves drew them closer to the shoreline. Deep down, Kuri didn't mind the weather, because to her the experience she came here for wasn't enjoying the sun. It was to simply enjoy herself for once in her life, and she can easily have a good time with her good friend.
She reached into her bag and pulled out a cigarette, fingers trembling slightly as she lit it. As the smoke curled upwards, she turned to her friend, gratitude present in her eyes. "I don't mind where I go as long as you're around here with me," she said softly, her voice carrying a weight of sincerity. "After all, I don't know if I would be here today without you... So thank you..."
