((This story is following Anju after episode twenty.))
Anju sat on her bed and sighed. She looked and the lifeless doll sitting next to her. She missed talking to Boogie-Kun. He had become lifeless after Anju had awakened. It was like her imaginiation ran out after she began an adult. She missed his annoying voice.
Anju sighed again and leaned down to get a book from under her bed. She pulled it out and read the cover, for the millionth time, "Alchemy." the cover read. She opened it and flipped to the page she left off at. She read for hours, not thinking of anything else.
"Boogie-Kun. I'm going to try to bring you back to me, when I can get my hands on the stuff I need to do the spell, you will come back." Anju said.
"Anju, are you okay?" Karin came into the room.
Anju quickly slid the book under her comforter. "Hai. I just miss Boogie-Kun. That's it." Anju looked at the lifeless doll.
"Okay. Mama told me to come check on you. You haven't even left your room in a few days." Karin smiled and left.
"Mama told you? Mama doesn't care that much." Anju smirked. "I like to know you care."
Anju stood up and looked in her mirror. "I may look like an adult, but at heart, I just long to be a child again." She said looking at herself. Her face was serious and her eyes were a dark aburn. Her hair traced her knees. Her antique dress was slightly to short for her now.
She turned around to see the big stack of dolls that she had taken off her wall to put a shelf to put her many magic books on. Ren was right, she is one of the greats and she was only 14. If only anyone noticed my sadness. I always look so neutral, but underneath this mask, I'm crying all the time. I'm not happy with just being one of the best. I need my dolls. They were my company. No one ever visits me so I had my dolls to entertain me. But now they're gone and I have no one. Is it really worth living if you have no happiness or joy? If no one cares?
Anju has had these thoughts running throough her mind since she awakened. Karin had said that she hated her. And she didn't even really talk to me up until I almost died from that guy kicking me. If only...if only she knew the things I have gone for her.
