Chapter 13
It's 23rd of December and it's already snowing. Looking outside the window gave me a sense of longing for someone. My parents are always going here and there, leaving me alone in the process. Tomochin has been going in and out of the hospital. Oshima-san always send letters telling her wonderful experiences in the states. And Acchan, haven't got any news about her..I don't even have a chance to see her in school.
"I guess I need to take a stroll" I said to myself.
I grabbed my purse and my winter coat and went straight out the door. The sight of kids making snow angels on the ice-filled ground made me much lonely (how I wish I could do that with someone). I walked across the cold and icy streets, walk to wherever my feet takes me.
"Taka-chaaaaaan!" a familiar voice yelled out to me. To my surprise it was Shinoda-san.
"Shinoda-san, it nice to see you here. How are you doing?" she looks nice as always. It's like she's radiating a godly-like feel.
"I'm fine Taka-chan. How are you doing?"
"I'm fine too, Shinoda-san. I'm just strolling around since theres nothing much to do at home."
"Come with me. Let's go out. I'm meeting with a friend, I'll introduce you" ehhh? Wait..what?
"KARAOKE?!" I exclaimed "What are we doing here Shinoda-san?"
"We're gonna have fun Taka-chan!" she answered with a laugh that gave something-bad-is-gonna-happen feeling "Ah, there she is"
A tall beautiful woman walked towards us. She's really beautiful and gave a princess-like feels. She has curls on the end of her hair. Every guy she passed by was at awe, even their respective girlfriends were at awe too. She's shining.
"Nyan-Nyan!" Shinoda-san ran towards the girl and hugged her.
"Please stop calling me Nyan!" shouted the girl "It's been years Mariko"
"Can't stop myself Nyan-Nyan. Hahaha"
"Eh? Who is that girl?" She ran towards me and looked at me closely "KAWAII! Who is this Mariko? She's cute and..chibi!"
What?!!!!! I really don't know if It's a compliment or what. Hmmmmppfff, this girl.
"I forgot to introduce her Nyan-Nyan." Shinoda-San walked towards us "Taka-chan this is Kojima Haruna, the friend I'm telling about. Nyan-Nyan this is Takahashi Minami, a frequent in the infirmary in school"
Shinoda-san whispered something to Kojima-san.
"EHHHHHHHHHHHHHH??!!!" Kojima-san suddenly exclaimed "High schoolers nowadays, but Taka-chan, Good job!"
"Ehhh?! What did you said to her Shinoda-san?" I was so curious suddenly. The expression of Kojima-san was huge.
"Nothing nothing Taka-chan. Let's go!"
Days surely pass so fast. We were here in the same place together few months ago. We were singing together, having fun like we are doing today. She was here back then, singing a song for me. She whispered 'Nee Minami, that's for you..' I blushed, I don't know what to do. I held her hand secretly and whispered back 'I love you Acchan..'
"Christmas is coming! Do you have plans Taka-chan?" Kojima-san asked while twirling the silver fork over the plate.
"I don't have any Kojima-san. Maybe I'll just stay home and treat myself to something" I answered. I guess I'll spend this Christmas alone.
"I heard you're into L Taka-chan. Maybe you want to.." Kojima-san whispered "With the two of us.."
"Ehhhhhhhh?!!!!!!!"
"Stop teasing the kid Nyan-Nyan. I know what you're trying to do" Shinoda-san said "Don't mind her Taka-chan"
Kojima-san pouted in disappointment which is cute, much like Tomochin's.
"Ah! A band will perform today. I guess it's our lucky day guys" Kojima-san pointed at the small stage across.
"I wonder what they will play" I asked my self
"Merry Christmas everyone. Our first song is called 'Forever'"
I suddenly felt a tug on my chest as the band starts playing. It's as if I already heard the song before. I heard this before, I'm sure of it.
~~We can keep walking forever
Together, now and forever
This love I clutch close to my heart
Will never change, this one unique
“I love you”
Don’t forget this promise we’re making
Because you’re more important to me than anyone else
I want to make the dreams you told me about come true, little by little
"I love you.."~~
"That was a nice song Acchan"
"It's because I made it for you Minami"
"Ehh?! Really?"
"Of course. Do you like it?"
"I love it Acchan"
"Promise me Minami.."
"Promise what?"
"That we'll be together forever.."
"I promise Acchan.."
"I love you Minami.."
"I love you too Acchan..""That song was composed by a friend of mine in school. She hopes that this song will reach the person she loves even though they are away from each other. I hope you guys liked it" the band received a round of applause.
I rushed out from the place leaving Kojima-san and Shinoda-san behind.
"Where are you going Taka-chaaaaaaaan!!!!?" Shinoda-san followed me.
"Im just gonna get something at home Shinoda-san!"
I ran without thinking anything. I want to be with her, that's how I feel. Darn you Acchan, making me crazy at times like this.
An unexplainable feeling rushed throughout my body as I was nearing my apartment. There's a girl standing in front of the apartment door. It's....
"Acchan...?"
"Minami..."
