My daughter Sen
Chihiro Ogino left the spirit world 10 years ago. She never will forget it. It's still as if she can smell the smoke from the boiler room in her sleep. Whenever she thinks of the bath house, she starts to cry. She even tried killing herself a few times. "If I can't have Haku I don't wanna live anymore" she would say. Once she stabbed herself in the chest. Her friend came over to find her bleeding to death on the living room floor. At that moment there was an 80% chance of Chihiro dyeing. Too much blood had been lost. But luckily Chihiro's friend, Rumi got her to the hospital in time. Chihiro lived from then on. But no matter what, Chihiro was always miserable. She felt as though she had nothing. Her mother dyed when she was 13, from lung cancer. Her father dyed when she was 15 of suicide. She had been living on her own and taking care of herself since she was 16. The only one in the world that was there for Chihiro was Rumi. Rumi and Chihiro had beens childhood friends, before she moved to the quiet town that held the beautiful magical kingdom. Rumi was 3 years younger than Chihiro but took care of her well.
Saturday morning 9:00 am.
"Chihiro! Chihiro! Your breakfast is ready" Rumi called from the kitchen downstares. Chihiro sat up and rubbed her eyes. "coming" she said almost louder than a whisper. She ran downstares and sat at the table. Rumi smiled at Chihiro sweetly and kissed her forehead. "So whats up puddin' cup?" she said as she motherly smile gleamed on her face even more. "Well, In was sleeping soundly until my human pest woke me me up" she said with a groan. "Well, I was not gonna let you starve to death" she said as she handed Chihiro some soup. Chihiro lapped up the soup in 2 minutes. "Why did you do that? You will get a stomach ache" she said. "No I won't" Chihiro said. Rumi shrugged. "I'm going outside" Chihiro said. Don't forget to put on your coat. It's chilly out there" Rumi said as she st down to eat. Chihirop grabbed her gray coat of the hook and wrapped it around her slim frame. She walked over to her little pond in the front yard.
Chihiro sat down and and ran her fingers through the water smoothlwey. Chihiro felt a sudden tug on her hand as she was doing this. She pulled her hand out the water thinking it was nothing and then put it back in. Then this time the tug was so hard that it pulled her entire body into the chilling water. Chihiro just kept being dragged to the never ending bottom as she stared wide eyed into the vast ocean. The pond was huge underneath, but small shaped. She felt her lungs plead for air as she came to blackness.
All of a sudden, Chihiro could breathe again and she was not wet and at all. But she could not see a thing. She moved her hands around trying to grasp on to something until she felt skin. All of a sudden her vision came back and she was stareing up at a man with long steely green hair and gorgeous green eyes. He smiled ever so loving at hger and she could not help but smile back. "Haku" she whispered. " Yes Chihiro, It's me" he said as he pulled her into an embrace. Chihiro pulled away. "Am I dead?" ahe asked. "No. Since I am a river spirit I control all bodies of water. I can speak to lakes, ponds, rivers and oceans. I told your pond to send you to me. That was the only way I could see you again." he said with the most loving expression on his face. Chihiro smiled and bit her lip. "While I was in the being pulled, I could smell your hair" she said. Haku giggled. "You remember what my hair smells like?" He asked. "Yeah. Of course I do". When you used to hug me and comfort me I used to smell your hair." she said. Haku smiled. "Good to have you back Chihiro" he said. "It's good to be back" she said with a smile.
