Please listen to this song if you can before reading as it sets the mood.
A song to the sun.
In the late evening, as the Spring sky turns to a light peach colour, it stretches everywhere, hovering over the tall mountains. The stars in the night sky are singing my song. carrying my thoughts, they sparkle. Even now, I still feel nostalgic thinking about the day when I met the beautiful you, I can see the smiling cheeks of the lovely you... Can you hear my song as it traverses the sea and crosses over the mountains? I want to lightly and softly cross the sea of stars just to surprise you, but when the sun rises you are gone...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A small little figure with raven hair spread across the pillow, her body was buried by soft fluffy covers. The pale young girl's cheeks were painted with a deep rose pink, her breathing was slow and her eyes closed. Suddenly she heard a noise, a creak of the floorboards,
"Mayuyu?.."
She opened her beady eyes slowly and turned her head to face a small standing figure.
"How are you feeling Yukirin? I brought some porridge with dried plums~" A crystal eyed doll carried a tray of hot and dry food, walking ever so carefully not drop anything as she was still a small girl as well, she knelt down by Yuki's side and blew on the hot porridge.
"Say ah~"
Mayu brought the spoon closer to the raven haired one.
"Ah..~"
Yuki parted her lips and opened her mouth, slowly tasting the porridge with her taste buds she smiled softly at Mayu.
"Oishi Mayuyu..~"
Mayu's cheeks turned warm and smiled back at Yuki, and began to feed her more.
Moments later, Mayu began telling Yuki stories to pass the time.
"After crossing many seas, the girl finally arrived at a faraway country. In this foreign land she met another young girl. The girl who had arrived had eyes the colours of the sea and summer sky, while the other girl had mysterious dark brown eyes that reminded her of chocolate~
This is why the blue eyed girl liked her at first glance and fell in love!~ They talked about things they liked and taught each other how to dance~
'What lies beyond the sea?' asked the girl with dark eyes.
The other girl replied, 'I don't know because there is an endless world beyond the sea.'
But she also said, 'do you want to cross the sea of stars together?~' the girl reached out her hand to the dark eyed one.
'..Un!~' she took her hand and both of them smiled, making a promise to always love each other no matter how far they were.
The end~"
Mayu finished her story, she looked at the pale laying figure who smiled and eyes began to drift.
Mayu planted a gentle kiss on Yuki's forehead and tucked her in.
"Oyasumi Yukirin.. Aishiteru..~"
The next morning.
The young little Mayu went out to buy some more medicine for Yuki, while she was heading home through a tunnel of Autumn trees, she passed several people along her way who stared at her with fear in their eyes, even a mother held her child closer to her just as Mayu walked passed them.
"Don't look at her Rino!.."
The infant turned her head away to avoid looking at Mayu.
Mayu let her head hang down, salty tears brimming in the corner of her sky blue eyes.
Mayu was staring out into the bonsai garden sitting on the edge of the porch.
"I don't want to see anybody's face again.."
Yuki heard the quiet whisper and frowned as well as she saw her best friend depressed.
"Mayuyu.."
"Whenever I open my eyes, all I can see are their smiles fading away." Curled into a ball and Mayu's heart burst, silently crying.
Yuki felt hopeless but then had an idea and leaned in closer to her sad companion.
"In that case, look at me and nobody else!~"
Yuki said proud of her idea and began rubbing her tiny hands together.
"Ayy!~"
Yuki put each of her small palms on Mayu's blue eyes. "Kyaa!!"
"It's a charm, from now on, I'm the only person you can see! This way Mayuyu won't have to see any more scary faces~"
After that day, Mayu and Yuki had their own secret. Mayu pretended not to see the world around her and Yuki was the only one who could see blue her eyes.
They always held hands as they would walk next to each other, passing by countless people and when everyone was gone...
"Mayuyu it's clear now~"
Mayu opened her eyes with comfort in her heart as she smiled warmly at Yuki.
Four seasons later,
Yuki's health started to improve each day, however.. Mayu's started to deteriorate. Her eye sight started fading along with her strength to even walk.
And just as Yuki was experiencing freedom, her family had decided to move to the prospering city known as Akihabara.
*sipping a freshly brewed tea, Yuki's father was suddenly startled by his daughter's reaction*
"EH!! AKIHABARA?! That means I can finally study about theatre~!" Eyes widen with surprise and excitement, Yuki could not contain her happiness and started to indulge in daydreaming about attending a school of drama and arts. But then a familiar face popped into her mind.
Yuki's pov.
"If I'm leaving Mayu will be alone... It's so far away from Mayu.. I c-can't go!! But I'm only 15, papa and mama would never allow me live on my own..."
At the Watanabe household, Yuki was telling Mayu that she was moving away. Mayu told Yuki she was going to miss her but wanted her to be happy with her new life.
Though in her eyes, she was fractured on the inside. Yuki cried in front of Mayu but managed to keep her composure at the end.
"I didn't want Mayu to see me crying so I tried to hold back the tears. In reality though, I was ready to break down right there..."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Several months have past since Yuki has left her hometown, and now she is working towards her dream of being a famous theatre director..
April 5th, 1979
Dear Diary,
It's been over a year since I've moved to Akihabara and well it's not bad. My new school is nice and I've already made lots of new friends. I'm glad I was able to fit in well with the others and so were my parents. However deep inside, I missed Mayu deeply. I would sometimes dream about her being here with me and we'd do all kinds of fun things together. I dreamt of us going to open cafes and sharing an ice cream together. We would hold hands and take walks throught Autumn tunnel of trees. Then I'd wake up and realize she wasn't here so I would sulk. I miss Mayu so much.. If I had wings I would jump out the window right now and fly to her. I hope she's doing alright.. I sent her a letter but I have yet to receive a response so I worry. I hope Mayu is okay.. I miss her..
June 7th, 1980
Dear Diary,
Today was the day I first met Mayu~ All those years ago we're still together even now. Mayu writes to me everyday and I always write back as soon as I get the letter. I tell her everything about my life and all the things I've done. I tell her all the things here that she has to come and see someday. I want her to come so badly but she's recently fallen ill and so she can't leave anywhere. I still can't believe it's been so long since I've met Mayu. Makes me realize how much more I miss her. I want to be with her so badly but I can't!!! But.. one more year and I'll be 18! I can go wherever I want and the first place I'm going to go to is back home where Mayu is waiting for me. I'll finally be able to tell her the words I was so afraid of telling her long ago.. I'll tell her that I love her.
January 21st, 1981
Dear Diary,
It's been a while, I'm 18 now so that means I can do whatever I want! I was planning on going to see Mayu but then I got distracted with studies and school. I'm studying musicals and I hope to one day make on of my own. It'll be about the story Mayu used to tell me when I was sick, about the star crossed lovers and I want it to be so popular that even Mayu back home will hear about it. The great musical write Kashiwagi Yuki!!! Hehe it's a big dream but I'm shooting for it! I want to do something that will make Mayu proud of me.So far I've been doing well but because I've been so busy, I haven't been able to write to Mayu. I'm either buried in work or my friends drag me out for stupid things. Grrr! I need hurry and write back!!
February 21st, 1981
Dear Diary,
It's been exactly a month since I wrote to Mayu and she hasn't written back.. I check the mailbox everyday and all I get is bills or junk mail but nothing from Mayu... I wonder if she's okay.. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pass the lamp post with the broken flickering light, the smell of rain on the pavements, painting the streets as if they were a glistening river. A distant figure in the background, waited for her bus on the streets of Akihabara.
"I hope it comes soon.. I'm turning into an ice popsicle!"
Yuki shivered from the cold gust of wind brushing against her cheek, she then noticed something small next to her, hiding behind an a paper floral patterned umbrella.
She gazed quietly at the person a few feet away from her, "Atchuu!.." Suddenly surprised by the smallest sneeze she ever heard, Yuki remembered she had an open pack of tissues in her back pocket.
"Here..You can use this." Yuki offered the soft white paper to the sneezing girl.
"A-arigatou..~"
Just as Yuki was about to give her the tissues, crystal blue piercing eyes peeked out from the umbrella, which shone under the stars of the night.
"..M-Mayu?!"
"Eh?? Yuki-chan..?"
..*silence*..
"What are you doing here?!" Yuki gasped with eyes wide open.
"I-I wanted to see you!.." Mayu blushed embarrassed and both the tips of her index fingers touched each others in a cute manner.
Speechless by the turn of events, Yuki intertwined her hand into Mayu's, causing the younger girl look up. "The bus will be coming soon, so you better watch your step." Yuki said with a straight face turning her head ever so slightly avoiding Mayu's gaze, smiling warmly at her old friend's gesture she tightened her hold on Yuki's hand.
*BEEP! BEEP*
Both girls hop onto the bus awaiting to purchase their tickets.Once again silence filled the air, awkwardly Mayu shuffled closer to Yuki, little by little until, "You haven't changed."
Yuki's blunt words rang in Mayu's mind like a bell, causing her to pout her nude pink lips. "You saying I haven't grown?"
"..Maybe~" Yuki grinned and scoffed.
"Mou!! Bakarin! Ijiwaru!" Mayu puffed her cheeks and whined at her teaser. Chuckling at the younger girl's reaction, Yuki patted Mayu's head softly.
"I'm glad you're still my little Mayuyu~"
"R-really?~" Embarrassed again, Mayu ducked her head to hide her crimson cheeks.
"..You've changed a lot.. You seem so grown up Yukirin~" Smiling plainly, Yuki couldn't read any emotion of Mayu's smile which bothered her, "...I guess~". Deciding in the end it was nothing, Yuki shrugged it off. "Oh this is our stop, time to get off~"
And like that both girls reached Yuki's dorm.
"Do you want some tea?" Yuki offered, nodding in response Mayu sat on the floor and rested her arms on the wooden coffee table.
*Meanwhile in the kitchen*
"Hmm~ *humming merrily* I'll be there in a few mins Mayu just preparing some snacks!"
"..."
"Here we g-.. *sigh*"
Yuki saw her sleepy twintailed friend fast asleep, Yuki sat down next to the tired young one and rested Mayu's head on her lap, stroking the silky black hair and playing with one of the twintails', Yuki started drifting off into her own state of slumber.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A week into Mayu's visit...
Cicadas humming in the humid season, a small girl, fixes her sandal, peeking from behind red coated rusty gate, in search of someone, the small girl started taking her footsteps steadily towards the entrance and stared in awe.
"I thought I told you not to wait at the gate. *flicks forehead*"
"Kya!! I-itai!"
Behind Mayu shadowed a taller girl with arms folded sternly.
"What if you got lost? I told you to wait at the dorm!"
"I-I know my way already mou.." Mayu rubbed her forehead. Sighing at her naive companion, Yuki guided Mayu into town.
"Honestly Mayu, Akihabara is big city it's not like back home in the countryside where all the paths are linked together from the main road."
"I got bored waiting at the dorm though Yukirin, your not there to play with me. *pouts*" Yuki pinched Mayu's squishy cheeks causing Mayu to squirm. "You're so spoilt when your with me~"
"That's because you can't resist me when I pout~" Mayu tried to nip Yuki's hand. "Hey! Keep that up and no ice cream for you!"
"But I'm hungry Yuki-chan~~" Mayu cuddled Yuki and from behind and nuzzled into her the back of leather jacket.
"Okay, okay~"
Both girls came across a small retro cart. Yuki came back with two bright coloured cones, “Here we are~”.
”Yatta~!" Mayu squealed happily and began eatingstrawberry swirled the ice cream.
Nibbling slowly at frozen treat, Yuki noticed how Mayu had a trace of cream on her cheek, soon Yuki's lips curved into a smirk.
"*licks~*
“K-kya!!"
“W-Why you do that?!” Mayu yelped.
“You had some cream on your cheek, so I did what any good friend would do and cleaned it for you~” Giggling away, Yuki's smirk did not leave.
"Black Yukirin!!"
As soon as Mayu spoke those forbidden words, a dark aura emerged from the older one.
"*gulps* Y-Yuki-chan..~"
"..Too late Mayuyu~"
Yuki cupped Mayu's cheek and lifted her chin up, Mayu could feel her heart racing as the raven haired girl leaned in closer, and soon the warmth of her hand left as she stroked the side of Mayu's bare neck down.
"*shivers* H-hyaa..~ Y-Yukirin please anything but that.."
Shortly Mayu found herself letting out a gentle whimper from Yuki's sudden touch. "No excuses Mayu, you need to be taught a lesson~"
"....Hyaaan~!!"
Yuki held Mayu's slim waist tightly and started caressing her sides.
"Take that~! *tickles*"
"I-I'm sorry Yukirin! I won't say it again~!" Mayu squirmed uncontrollably and chortled gleefully.
Moments later..
"*pant* *pant*..M-my insides hurt..~"
"That's what you get for being cheeky Mayuyu~" Yuki ruffled her best friend's hair messily. "Not my bangs!!" Mayu roared. “I didn't touch them~ *teases* I have one more surprise for you, come on~”
Sharing the sky, outside day starts to dawn. Two shadows sitting by the edge of the river bank, watching the moon floating on high.
As Mayu supported her head against Yuki's chest, Yuki could hear Mayu's gentle heart beating in time with hers, Yuki gently lay'd both of their bodies, their hair sprawled out on the earthy grass. "Mayu.. *turns on side and wraps her arms around Mayu's petite waist* I-I really missed you.. You know that.. I'm sorry for leaving you back then, you must've been pretty bored.." Mayu's cheeks turned a shade of rose when Yuki pulled her in closer.
"*shakes head* It's not your fault Yuki, you didn't have a choice but to stay with your parents, you were still young.. You're my light Yukirin~ Brightening the sky each day!"
"Mayu..."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Four seasons later,
Mayu would wait outside the college's gate for Yuki, and each second their friendship grew and a stronger bond formed between the two..
Yuki's pov.
I woke up to her sleepy face this morning, "Good morning Mayu~" I pressed my fingertip against her pink puffed cheek, Mayu's face turned to a bright red and looked away trying to hide her embarrassment which I thought was adorable. I kissed her on the cheek this time without holding back.
"Up and at them, we're going out for breakfast~" Yuki stretched as she slid her duvet of herself. "Buuu~ It's still early!" Protesting of getting up, Mayu hid under the cover of duvet she shared with Yuki. Moments later, finally dragging the stubborn Mayu out of bed, both girls glanced upon an oak carved sign, "Momo's Kissaten Cafe~"
As soon as Mayu stepped into the café, the smell of matcha and lavender greeted her. The café was larger that what she had thought. A wooden bar counter on the left side of the café and the bartender dressed neatly in a white buttoned up and bow tie.
Although there wasn't much customers in sight, a painted face lady was performing the koto on a little stage in the far corner of the café while an old couple was smiling ear to ear, carefully listening to the rhythm of the strings. Yuki then led the shorter girl to the reserved table located in front of the stage. She took the chair out for Mayu, and the other girl blushed furiously at the sweet gesture. "It's really soothing in here Yukirin~"
"I know right! It's my favourite place whenever I need a break from college life~ Actually speaking about college, there was something I wanted to ask you Mayu.."
Mayu's pov.
Oh no.. is she really annoyed that I wait for her at the gate each day..?
"There's an upcoming dance before my graduation, I was wondering if you'd like to be my date?"
"..OF COURSE I WOULD~!!" Mayu beamed with twinkles in her eyes, "Shhh~" Yuki hushed as other people in the cafe turned their attention to high pitched squeak of Mayu. "S-sorry..~" Mayu covered her mouth immediately.
At 7:30pm..
"Mayu hurry up we're going to be late!" Yuki fastened her smooth leather jacket and which she styled with her tulle chiffon dress.
"Mayuyu are you finish ye-..." As soon Yuki's bedroom door opened, stepped out a familiar face.
The petite young lady wore a lilac silk backless dress, embroidered with white floral designs across the chest. There were some gems sewn into the little white flowers, making the dress bring out Mayu's sparkling turquoise eyes. Her hair was styled as a braided bun to one side and with her bangs pinned up. Mayu looked like a princess out of a fairytale which made Yuki feel somewhat not worthy of her presence. However when Mayu took Yuki's hand, Yuki could see Mayu thought she was just as lovely.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The couple entered the building, the big hall was adorned with banners and streamers. Everyone filled the room with light laughter and excitement.
Mayu's pov.
Yuki and I danced the night away that day and it was the best night of my life. We danced and danced all the way until the very last song. Holding my waist and my hand, we slow danced to the beat swinging side to side. We danced to the slow music and let our hearts be carried away getting lost in the gazes of each other.
"You look radiant tonight Mayu..~"
"You're not bad yourself~" Mayu stuck out her tongue playfully.
"Oh why thank you your highness~" Yuki chuckled while keeping a firm hold around Mayu's slim waist.
"Oh Mayu I forgot I owe you~"
"Owe me? Owe me wha-! *kiss*... nn... *kiss*"
The older girl leaned in closer to Mayu's lips, feeling her heart race with joy, Mayu felt Yuki's warm breath against her neck, she tilted her head down a little and both of their lips clashed.
Mayu's pov.
I clung tightly to the back of Yuki's leather coat. Bending down slightly over me, she pressed her lips hard against mine.
"Nnn... *kiss*... mmm, Yuki..."
""*nom*...nn~" Yuki couldn't help but grin when she released her lips.
"Wh-what was that for??" Mayu blushed like a tomato.
"I still remember what happened after the story Mayu..~" Yuki whispered in a low husky voice.
Flashback.
Mayu finished her story, she looked at the pale laying figure who smiled and eyes began to drift.
Mayu planted a gentle kiss on Yuki's forehead and tucked her in.
"Oyasumi Yukirin.. Aishiteru..~"
Stumbling upon the sudden memory Yuki brought up, Mayu sweat dropped, "Y-you were meant to be asleep! Plus that was on the forehead!"
"You really are clueless girl aren't you Mayuyu~" This time Yuki stuck her tongue out, Mayu felt like she was going to die of embarrassment. Yuki however expected Mayu to whine or pout, instead felt a weight against her chest. Nuzzling into the taller girl's breast, Mayu basked in Yuki's warm embrace.
"Do you want to take a walk..?" Yuki rested her chin gently on the top of Mayu's head. Without saying words, Mayu guided Yuki out of the hall, leaving with a big smile plastered on both of the girls faces, they escaped into the night.
Yuki and Mayu danced the night away that day and it was the best night of their life. Holding each other's waist, dancing to the beat swinging side to side. They sang their own song and let their hearts be carried away getting lost in the gazes of each other. Even though the party was over though, Mayu and Yuki had other plans. Yuki entangled and weaved her fingers through Mayu's silky loose braid, sweet moans escaped from Mayu as Yuki explored and tasted everything in her mouth, caressing each others lips, both of them sealed each others love for one another.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
September 5th, 1981
A few days after the dance, came the morning of Yuki's graduation.
"Hmnn!.. *stretch*"
Yuki's pov.
5am ughh.. *looks over* I love her sleeping face, she looks just like a doll.. I brushed my fingers across Mayu's messy bangs softly and planted a kiss on her forehead and got ready to help my friends at college with the preparations for graduation.
Hours later..
"Today is the day as students you move forward in your lives to something much greater. Today is the day you say goodbye to crammed halls and small lockers. As my students I am proud to say that I have accomplished my goals as you stand before me now here today to graduate. Congratulations everyone!"
"Where is she..? She was meant to be here ages ago.. Don't tell me she actually got lost!!"
After her graduation ceremony, where Yuki was expecting Mayu, Yuki rushed back to her apartment as fast as she could and slammed the front door wide open.
"Mayuyu?! Mayu?! Are you here?!"
Overcome with panic and confusion, in the corner of her eye Yuki found a neatly folded origami swan saying, "Open me."
Crumpling the paper animal, Yuki figured out it was a note left by Mayu.
'Dear Yukirin,
I'm sorry I couldn't make it to your graduation, I received a telegram this morning concerning urgent news back home and had to leave. Please forgive me..
Yours truly,
Mayuyu.'The atmosphere tense, Yuki let the crinkled note drop from her hands.
Days passed, and Yuki was already scouted to work on a big musical in a local theatre down town. Still, Yuki was angry, frustrated that Mayu left on the most important day of her life, she even stopped writing letters to Mayu, although she found it strange that she had not gotten any letters from Mayu about Mayu's return to back home.
When work was over, Yuki sighed as soon as she entered the dorm, "Tadaima.."
Ever since Mayu had left to the countryside, Yuki buried all of her emotions, her love, her sadness, her memories.. Occasionally those emotions would resurface.
"Baka Mayu! *bang!* I'll never forgive you!.."
Yuki slammed her fist hard against the wooden coffee table, her hand twitching with pain, she could care less. Yuki's silent sobs occupied the whole room.
"I'll go to her.. I want to hear it from her.. Her insignificant excuses.. Her petty apologies.. I want to hear them all.." Overwhelmed with frustration, Yuki packed her tattered rucksack and hopped onto the next bus to the harbour.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"All callings to Takayama departure, is in 2 minutes. Passengers please aboard or exit now."
Yuki hopped onto the train carriage and like that, she was only a few miles away from her and Mayu's old birthplace.
*Knock!* *Knock!*
*Creak!..*
"Hello, may I help you?" A middle aged woman wearing a mint green kimono, opened the heavy wooden door.
"Kanitua Watanabe Oba-san, it's me Yuki, Kashiwagi Yuki."
Yuki formally bowed to the older woman and smiled politely.
"Ara~ Yuki-chan! It's been so long! Please come in~ How are your parents??"
Taking of her shoes, Yuki entered the traditional wooden house. "My parents are good, they're running a dango shop now."
"Oh I'm so glad~ Would you like some tea?" Guiding Yuki's towards the main room, Mayu's mother started venturing into the kitchen to prepare the refreshments. Yuki could only smile at her auntie's kindness and sat down on a small cushion.
"Here it is~ I've prepared some cookies as well~" The wrinkled woman chimed.
"It smells lovely Auntie, by the way is Mayu joining us?"
Soon impregnated silence fell into the atmosphere, "Yuki-chan.. Mayu is.. Do you want to greet her yourself?" Feeling something was wrong, Yuki suddenly had a uncomfortable sensation in her stomach.
The older Watanabe stood up and led Yuki to another room, a room familiar to Yuki's eyes. She slid the paper door open, "Mayu..~ Yuki-chan is here to see you, I bet you'll be really happy..~" The old lady's voice broke as if was she was caught in the freezing winter wind.
There, in the corner on the right hand side of the room, was a marble shrine, little white jasmine flowers were placed in pink bunny shaped mug and a picture of a smiling twintailed girl was left beside it.
"A-auntie.. W-what.. I don't understand!.." Yuki's eyes brimmed with salty droplets.
"Mayu hadn't been feeling well over the years, we tried every doctor in the village asking them for help, but they all said the same thing. Then one time Mayu had the strength to get out of bed, she said she felt well enough to take a walk, I didn't let her leave the house but I allowed her to take a walk into the garden. Then later in the evening when I was calling Mayu in for dinner, the thing I heard she was missing, we searched over and over for her, we found her at the local train station, she collapsed and.. and.. *sniffle* *sniffle* she fell into a coma. Eventually 6 months had past since that day, she was still alive but it was like she was sleeping.. for those past 6 months, she never stopped smiling, I could even swear sometimes I would hear a faint sound of laughter. In early September, she stopped breathing.. I'm sorry Yuki-chan.."
"...T-that can't be right! She was with me for 6 months in Akihabara!.. A coma.. it's not right!..." Yuki dropped to the ground, overflowing with tears.
"I'll leave you two alone.."
Hours later..
Yuki sat on the porch where she and Mayu once played together, fondly remembering the time they spent together.
Flashback.
"In that case, look at me and nobody else!~"
Yuki said proud of her idea and began rubbing her tiny hands together.
"Ayy!~"
Yuki put each of her small palms on Mayu's blue eyes. "Kyaa!!"
"It's a charm, from now on, I'm the only person you can see! This way Mayuyu won't have to see any more scary faces~"
Yuki's pov.
In a place that won't let us feel, where nothing seems real, I have found you.. Your bright smile protects me, you gave me the courage to love straight-forward.. Living is just so sad, it’s filled with heart breaks such as this. But, Mayu I don’t regret a thing, that I met you, that I fell in love with you, if I were to meet you again, even knowing such sadness awaits me, I’d definitely fall in love with you again...
A light weight unexpectedly balanced onto Yuki's back.. As if someone was leaning on her..
"Yuki..~"
Eyes widen, Yuki instantly changed her position and searched behind herself.
"Mayu?!.."
Yuki turned round only to find an origami swan, picking it up slowly and scrunching the poor swan open, she read the tiny font with smudged ink.
'Aishiteru~'Yuki said nothing but held the note dear to her heart. As if it was the most precious gem in the world.
"Aishiteru baka Mayu..~"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
November 17th, 1984
Dear Diary,
Another three years have gone since I've last written in this thing. It's all old and stained but somehow its survived all the years of abuse. Looking back at my old entries, I saw ones that talked about Mayu all the time. I miss her more than anything in the world but I manage to keep it all together. Though inside, my heart aches knowing that I was never able to tell her that I loved her. I loved her so much that I would've done anything to save her life even if it meant giving up mine, which brings me to today's writings. My musical that I had written a long time ago has finally made it to light. A big director found the story touching and brilliant so production will start soon. I'm so happy that my dream as finally come true and I've made it this far. Mayu would be proud to see me like this.. I just wished she was here to share the happiness with me... Today the director asked me what was the name of the musical since I had never really came up with one. I don't know why I came up with that name but I thought it was the best since it suited it. Therefore, the name of the musical is... A song to the sun.. Because even when there is darkness, the sun would always rise in the morning, shining it's warm rays onto the earth. Mayu was is my sun, my light, my muse.
Mayu.. Aishiteru.. zutto zutto.. Aishiteru..~---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
September 5th, 1981
On the other side of Japan, a similar image appeared..
A small little figure with faded blue eyes, was buried by soft cushiony covers. The frail young girl's cheeks were decorated with a deep rose pink, her breathing was slow and her eyes were closed.
Mayu's pov.
Yukirin.. *coughs*.. in the late evening, as the Spring sky turns to a light peach colour, it stretches everywhere, hovering over the tall mountains. The stars in the night sky are singing my song. carrying my thoughts, they sparkle. Even now, I still feel nostalgic thinking about the day when I met the beautiful you, I can see the smiling cheeks of the lovely you... Can you hear my song as it traverses the sea and crosses over the mountains? I want to lightly and softly cross the sea of stars just to surprise you.. *coughs heavily and starts panting*
Suddenly people started running around, trying to comfort the sick young girl, Mayu started cough out blood and her felt pain all over small body.
"Her temperature is 38.9 C!! Someone get the emergency line!"
Mayu could hear loud heavy foot steps and people screaming around her, but then.. She started to imagine and remember the times she spent with Yuki, she dreamt of the moment when Yuki put the charm on her. Her lips formed a simple smile and a tear ran down her cheek, she couldn't hear anything anymore, none of the noise that surrounded her before, only Yuki's voice, and with that Mayu mumbled her silent words of love towards her before falling into an eternal sleep.
There's a place in my heart where I want to live a small world of past days I can no longer reach. I won't forget, I'm quietly watching over you even now I love you the most, you must know that.
The end~Okay if you have any comments or questions about the fanfic, please feel free to ask~
