Through the murkiness of the big city, Nephrite couldn't even see the stars they loved so much. They were in an unfamiliar neighborhood, in an unfamiliar city, under an unfamiliar sky. Everything that had once been familiar and comfortable turned against her when she over-estimated how progressive her hometown was and came out as non binary.
Now, having run away, they sat under a balcony soaked by the rain that still fell all around them. Tears lined their cheeks disguised by the rain and they glared at the ground with a solemn look.
They pulled out their wallet to check again, and once again found no money. They had not eaten since their last meal this morning and hunger was announcing itself with the loud rumbling in their stomach. Unable to conjure money out of thin air, Nephrite simply sighed to themselves and curled up into a ball, trying to ignore the chill in the air and their hunger.
