Chapter 5 - The puzzle of childhood.
All because of the dream.
I woke up with tears rolling down my cheek. I’m crying.
The flash back, the memories, makes my heartbeats in bitter pain.
Again, I cry.
Thinking back those memories, makes me miss him even more.
It just bitter even though I say I’ll let go of you, but I just can’t.
----
Flash back of the dream*The sky was pouring rain, little Rena was in the rain with her boot and rain coat over her. Enjoying herself under the rain with a smile on her face.
A pretty kid with a boyish clothing, holding an umbrella walks toward her.
“Is it fun to play under the rain?” his sudden approach gives Rena a surprise.
Rena remain silent.
“Ah, I’m sorry. I didn't mean to be rude, I’m just curious. It seem that you are having a lot of fun.”
“Um-m. (She shakes her head) is alright. It is fun, I feel refreshing, as if all my problem flow out from my body together with the water. “
“Really? I should try it next time then, thanks” he shows his smile to Rena.
“Ww-elcome” Rena blushed after seeing his smile.
End of flash back*-----
That dream was one of my childhood memories that was buried in my head.
I still remember that dream happen during a summer holiday when I was still living at Nagoya.
Back then, I was only 11 years old.
Few months after that, I moved to Tokyo due to my papa’s work.
I transfer to Akb middle school. A place that is unknown to me.
I remember that is where I met Jun, the person that change my life completely.
------
Flash back* 10 years ago.
Knock* knock*
“Come in”
A tall woman with short hair, with a figure like a model came into the room.
“Mariko sensei, I would like you to meet Matsui Rena. She will be in your class from now on.” Principal Atsuko said.
“Oh, we have a transfer student.”
She turns her attention to me.
“Hello, Matsui-san. I’ll be your homeroom teacher from now on, you can call me Mariko sensei. Come with me now, I’ll bring you to your class.” She said.
I just nodded.
We reach the door of my class. She called me to wait till I was told to go in.
Mariko sensei went in and settled the class.
From the door way I could hear what she said to the class.
“Today we will have a friend who will be joining us from now on.” She said to the class.
I heard whisper among the student.
“New student? I wonder if is a boy or a girl.”
“Transfer student during the middle of semester? “
I was nerves and scared. I’m a shy person that doesn’t mix well with others. I don’t have any friends back in my old school.
“Come in” I heard Mariko sensei said.
My leg was frozen on the spot, I told my leg to move but it doesn’t want to listen to me as if it has a mind of its own.
Now I begin to panic.
Bang*
“Ouc-ch!” Someone bumps into me from the back.
“Ahh… gomen. I didn’t mean to.” He said it and bows slightly to me.
“JUN! You are LATE” Mariko sensei shouted.
“Gomen!!! Sensei! I won’t do it again!” he said with his back facing me, so I didn’t really get to see his face.
“I hope you won’t, now go back to your sit.”
Somehow my legs can move again, I walk slowly into the class.
I could feel that the whole class turns their attention to me.
It made me nerves.
“Introduce yourself.”
“H-hello. My name is Matsui Rena, I’m from Nagoya.”
Whisper could be heard again. “She has the aura of princess around her.” “She is so pale” "Did she say Matsui?" “Look at her silky long black hair”
“Okay, quiet down class. Matsui-san, you can sit behind of Jun.”
Jun? Isn’t that the guy who bumps into me? I look over to his direction and met his eyes.
“Ah!” I remember him. Isn’t he the one that I met a few months before at Nagoya? Why is he here?
“ Is there a problem, Matsui-san?” teacher asked.
“No.” I shake my head and proceed to my sit.
I could felt that all the eyes were on me, and it make me felt super nerves.
Time pass fast, it’s already lunchtime now.
“Jun-kun. Are you free after school? Let’s hangout!”
“Nah, I will pass today. I have to go for my martial arts club later.” Jun rejected the girls, with a smile on his face.
“awwhh! Really? That's too bad then.”
He goes for martial arts club? That’s kind of cool. I over heard their conversation and slightly turn my head and look.
“Interested in Him?” girl sitting next to me said it with a smirked on her face.
“ Uh?” I look at her with a face of confused. What did she just say?
“haha, hello. I’m Kashiwagi Yuki. Just call me Yuki.” She flashed a genuine smile, she gives out a elegant aura around her.
“I’m Matsui Rena. Can just call me Rena.”
“So tell me. You interested in him? Matsui Jun”
“Uh? Matsui? Uh? No. I just met him, how could I-“ before I could finish my line.
“Anything is Possible.” She said with a smile.
“Yukirin.” A voice interrupted our conversation.
I look over and saw a girl with twin tail and neat bang hair called her from the doorway.
“Mayuyu~.” Yuki walks toward the door with a bright smile on her face.
Anything is possible huh?
A blink of an eye, the school has ended.
I was packing my book into my bag getting ready to go home and I heard whisper going on.
“That’s the new girl.”
“She is pretty isn’t she? Giving out the aura of princess”
“You’re right she is pretty.”
That’s weird I have never once heard anyone saying that I’m pretty or like a princess. I guess this is nothing like my old school.
I left the class and notices there is some boys are following me.
Or is it jus my imagination, cause I hope it is.
Is not my imagination, they are following me.
I begin to panic and lost track of where I am.
I heard some talk along the hallway, so I hid behind a pillar, hoping no one sees me.
“You sure? The new student is pretty and looks like a rich kid? Don’t you dare to lie to me.”
“Big brother, never once I dare lying to you. Is true”
I begin to tremble and scare. What should I do? Today is just the first day and this- happening to me.
“Big brother, I think I see a shadow behind that pillar.”
“Really?” “Come out little kitten, we won’t harm you”
I’m afraid and scared.
“I found you.” He said.
I was too afraid to look at him. He grabs my collar and asks for money and asking me to be his girl.
“ I d-on’t have much mo-n-ey on me-.” My voice is shaking.
“Is alrite, then you have to pay with your body then” he said.
He grabs my hands strongly and started putting his lips on my neck. I started to scream for help. But it was no use.
“You damn women, stop screaming!” He shouted angrily and he started to strip my upper clothes.
He was too strong for me to break away. His hands was holding onto my hands so tight, knowing is already is red in colour.
Tears started to flow down like river from my eyes. I keep on scream and kicking that guy hoping someone will come and save me.
His filthy hands were touching every crook and nooks of my body, his filthy breath was choking me and all I could do was whimpered and stared at him with blurry eyes.
“HEY! What are you guys doing there!!!” I heard a voice.
“h-elp. He-lp” asking for help, wishing that person could hear me.
“You piece of CRAP! How dare you touches the new student!” I heard loud voice saying it.
“J-UN! Big brother is JUN! Better go now!”
When they were about to run, it was already too late. Jun has already appear in front of them.
Spilt of a second, Jun’s fist landed at that big guy.
The big guy wasn’t fast enough to react then he fallback onto the floor. He tries to get up from the floor but fails.
The punch that Jun gives is too strong for him even though he is twice the size bigger than Jun.
The big guy doubled over in pain from the first blow but Jun wasn’t done yet.
He grabbed the big guy’s filthy arm that touches me and twisted it the wrong way until he could hear the guy screaming in pain.
“DIDN’T I TOLD YOU NOT TO TOUCHES ANY GIRLS?” Jun shouted at him.
“I’M Sorrryyyy, I won’t! I won’t anymore!” The big buy was crying in pain.
“IF YOU TOUCHES AGAIN, I’LL BREAK THE ARM OF YOURS!”
Jun sounded very mad.
After he let go of the arm, he send the big guy flying 5 feet away by kicking his gut really hard for the last time.
Jun quickly run toward me and grab me into his arm and pull me close to him. I was sobbing uncontrollable, and my hand couldn't stop trembling.
“shh. Is ok is ok….. Is all right now. I’m here for you.” He take off his jacket and cover up my body. My hands start clutching on his shirt tightly.
“I’m here. I’ll protect you.” he wrap he arms around my waist and carry me like a princess and afterward I vision went black, I pass out.
I woke up and realize I’m in an unfamiliar place. Where am I? I felt something warm on my hand, I took a look at it.
I was surprise that, it was Jun’s hand that was holding tightly onto my hand sitting next to the bed I was sleeping. I took a closer look at him, he was sleeping soundly.
“Thanks for saving me.” I said it with a low voice.
The horrible scene flashes back to my mind, tears starts forming at the corner of my eyes.
My sniffles woke Jun up and when he saw me crying, he had a concerned look on his face.
But it disappear in a second, he pulled me into his arm and gave me a warm hug whispering kind words into my ears.
“Is alright now. I’m here for you. I’ll protect you for now on” He gently pats my head with his hand. I felt protected like a princess somehow.
He broke the hug and looks me straight to his eyes.
“Let’s exchange number, it will be easier for me to protect you” I just nodded to agree to exchange number.
After exchanging numbers, I took a look at the time on my watch and realize it was already very late. Jun saw my face expression changes.
“Come. I’ll send you home now, its very late now. I’m sure your parents are worry.”
“…….”
“is ok. I’ll tell your parents that you had a welcoming party with your classmate. I understand you doesn’t want your parents to worry about you.”
“….. Thank you.” I said it with a low voice.
He smiled. “Welcome. Princess”
“Princess?” I looked him with a confused face.
He took my hand and kisses it and look into my eyes and said. “Yes, from now on I’ll be your knight” he show me cat smile.
My face heated up and blushed bright red. My heart beats like a drum repeatedly.
What is this feeling?
Since we left the house, he has been holding onto my hand as if I’m a little child that will get lost once he let go.
“Um, could you tell me where is your house?”
“er…” I look around the house area and found it familiar, isn’t this place around my house area? That’s weird.
“I think my house is just around the corner.” I said.
“Eh??? Really???? Where?”
“Few block away?”
“Eh-h” His eyes went wide, he is in the state of shock. I found it quiet cute though.
We walk toward to my house and I pointed at my name plate at my house that written “MATSUI”
“So from now on, we are neighbor uh.” He flashes his smile again.
“I think so.”
Suddenly, the door of my house opened and my mom appeared with a face of worry.
“Rena-chan! Where have you been? Why have you not call us that you will be late?”
“…. Sorry. I have forgotten” I felt guilty that I made my family worry about me.
“Good evening, Matsui aunt. I’m so sorry that I’m the reason that she is late back home.” He bows to my mom and apologized.
“My my, May I ask who are you?” my mom asked.
“I’m Matsui Jun. I’m Rena’s classmate. Just now we were celebrating Rena’s welcoming party, that’s the reason why are we late. I am so sorry.” He told a lie for my sake.
He knows that I didn’t want my parents to worry about me.
Matsui? Same family name as me?
“Well, Jun-kun I’m grateful that you bought Rena-chan safely back home. And Rena-chan, next time remember to send us a message or give us a phone call telling you will be late home ok?”
“Yes, mama. I’ll remember next time.”
Jun realizes is time for him leave.
“Is very late now, I should be leaving. Good night Matsui aunt and Good night to you too, Rena-chan.
“Good night Jun be careful on your way home.”
Again, he smiled and waves his hand.
------------------
From that time on, Jun and I have become closer. We go to school together, we have lunch together, and we always hangout.
I found out that he is very smart and he skipped 2 grades. Therefore, He helps me with my homework.
And yes, he is only 9 year old but because of his mature face he doesn’t look like it at all.
He became my best friend, my knight and a person that cannot be replace by others.
I wish the day would never come, the day that Jun leaves me.
But sometime life doesn’t go the way you wanted.
Jun left me.
End of flash back*-------
“Rena-chan?” Jurina called
“Um ah? Yes?”
“Are you okay?” She asked with a face of concern.
“Yeah, I’m alright.” I smiled.
(To be continue)
