Lloyd POV
It's 5:00 I'm listening to my alarm wondering if it was a dream no my alarm isn't going off I'm still asleep but sadly as my mother calls me to get up I know it's not a dream.
I go downstairs to see my mother already waiting for me she struggles with walking and has to use a cane so I'm not happy when she tries to do stuff that could end with her falling.

Lloyd : Mom I thought I told you not to carry more than you can what if you fall

Misako : if I fall then I will get up and besides I can handle myself, sweetheart.

Lloyd : okay just please be careful

Even though my mother doesn't want to agree with me she knows that when she falls it's hard for her to get up which scares me knowing that one day my mother might fall and never be able to stand again.
Lloyd : okay I should go the others are probably waiting for me Love you and please be safe

Misako:  I will Lloyd don't worry about me and love you more.

As I started to walk to the stop where I meet up with Jay and Cole I was lost in thought not a lot of people like me for my father the only time I get praised is when I'm the green Ninja and I saved someone but not even the other Ninja know who I am which is good I guess by the time I got to the meeting spot Cole and Jay were already there

Cole: hey Lloyd on time as normal

Jay: hey Lloyd you want to come back to reality for us

When Jay said that it snapped me out of thought and my head shot up at them.

Lloyd: what oh sorry Jay  let's just get going the others are probably waiting

Jay: sure thing buddy let's get going

Time skip

Jay's POV

as we were one block away from school Cole was listening to music like always but when I turned to Lloyd he was lost in thought again but this time he was scratching his hand he only does that when he is nervous or his anxiety is really bad.  out of the group, Lloyd is definitely the quietest and the more anxious when in public I never knew why but I guess it's because of his father. As we were turning into the school grounds I tap Lloyd on the shoulder lightly to not scare him thinks someone is about to punch him or something

Jay: hey Lloyd Earth to Lloyd come In
No response

Cole: lloyd come on buddy we are at school

Cole : great I think he is disassociating  I'm going to get Kai and the others

As Cole leaves I bring Lloyd to a shaded tree and sets I continue to try and bring him back to reality when Lloyd is lost in thought it's like he gets lost in reality and almost becomes mindless I was talking to his mother about it and turns out Lloyd will disassociate and almost shuts down if he gets too anxious at this point Kai and Cole comes running to us kai drops his stuff down and sets in front of Lloyd

Kai hey Bud come on come back to us

As Kai starts to rub Lloyd's arm Lloyd started to come back

Lloyd: w-what where...are we at school

Kai :yes we are you want to tell me what caused you to disassociate

Lloyd :my...my mother she is getting worse and with that and the streets being so crowded I guess it just happened.

Cole : well at least you are okay now
