As I tried to listen to Mr. Takenaka's speech, I could feel his pools of amber burning my flesh. His Snow white hair cascaded down his back. His muscles rippled with each movement. I fantasised about the time we would chance upon to meet and he would wrapped his arms around my sheltering me from the dreary world,
"Miss Taijiya, would you please repeat to the class what I just said."
I stared at Mr. Takenaka's form dumbfounded. I tried to scrape in the barrel of mind what he said but i found nothing.
"Why don't you leave her alone" shouted a voice behind me. It was Miroku's. I held a slight crush for him, But I knew I could never be number 1 in his heart. The chambers were filled with a vast amount of past present and future women. I knew he liked me too. Well everyone knew that, I the only girls he's talked to that has not slept with him.
"Mr. Mushin, Please sit down or I'll ..."
He could not finish his statement as the bell that ended my torture sounded. I quickly packed my books and left. When I got to my locker I saw THEM together.
I can't believe he would really go out with her. I felt a knife dig deeper into my heart. The fairy tale image in front me eyes would never be mine. She had her arms around him. Laughter glittered through her eyes. He held her by her waist.
The bell rang again signalling, the continuous ritual of school life was to begin again. I got my books for Home Economics at went on my way. I felt a figure brush past me. He never turned a round to say even a sorry when my books dropped to the ground.
