Kuto woke up to the sound of waves crashing against the shore. He sat up and stretched, taking in the sight of the beautiful ocean before him. The sun was just beginning to rise, casting a pink and orange glow over the water. Kuto smiled and got to his feet, feeling grateful for another day alive.
He walked down to the beach, admiring the way the sand sparkled in the sunlight. He dipped his toes into the water, enjoying its coolness before making his way back inland. He had always loved living on this small island; it was so peaceful and calming.
As he made his way through town, he greeted everyone he passed with a smile. Everyone here knew each other and there was a sense of community that Kuto cherished. He waved to some children who were playing near their homes and they ran over to him excitedly.
"Good morning, Kuto!" they chorused as they surrounded him eagerly.
Kuto laughed and patted them on their heads affectionately before continuing on his way. He couldn't help but feel happy here; it seemed like everything good in life happened on this island... except for one thing: he had never been able to find true love himself
