    Friends are nothing more than the the people who you spend the fun yet meaningless times with.
    When those times get rough, they aren’t there to support you.

    Hauu~! I want to take it home~!

  • Rika FURUDE

    Just killing time until the world ends.

    There’s a really big difference between things you should tell people about yourself and things that are just personal.
