Fate and Destiny
Chapter: The Meeting
Mitsuki Kouyama was walking through the neighborhood one day, wearing her soft blue long-sleeve shirt and a flowing green skirt that went up to her knees. On her neck was a light purple scarf that was knit by her very own grandmother. She was a pretty young 14 year old girl with her brown hair down to her shoulders and bright brown eyes. She had a stuffed animal hamster which had crown spots here and there connected to her small light blue purse. In her ears were headphones connected to her mp3 player. As she was walking to the market to buy Tanaka-san some ingredients for the miso soup, she was singing along to her favorite song, New Future. She could now sing with out the pain from her tumor because a year ago, Dr. Wakouji had removed it with the help of Dr. Lon Herberd.
"Let's Sing A Song-ah!" She was suddenly cut short as she fell to the floor, and as she did her hamster keychain fell off. "Ow…." Mitsuki said as she closed her eyes and rubbed her head.
"I'm sorry," said the tall figure in front of her. As he said this Mitsuki opened one if her eyes, then both of her eyes in her astonishment. In front of her was a very handsome teen that was smiling nervously at her.
"N-no, it was my fault for not looking where I was going," said Mitsuki after she snapped back. After which she got up grabbed her purse and walked away embarrassed with her head down and blushing. The man looked at her surprised as her sudden leaving. Then he continued on and saw her hamster keychain on the ground.
"W-wait! You left your keychain…." He stopped as he saw she was already far away. Mitsuki had just come back from the market place with some groceries and turned the same corner as she did this morning and there he was again. He came up to her holding her hamster keychain and said, "You left this here this morning." When he said this he was smiling, and Mitsuki started blushing. She took the keychain from his hands and thanked him. She then walked away with her head down, too embarrassed to say a word. He walked in front of her.
"Can I escort you home?" the man said. Mitsuki tripped suddenly and flinched. Her hands braced her fall, but when she opened her eyes, she saw that she had landed on him and he was blushing. She sat up and looked away.
"Um, sorry about that," she said while pulling back her hair.
"No, no it's ok," he said as he looked in the other direction.
"Oh! I forgot to ask, what's your name? My name is Mitsuki Kouyama," she said politely.
"Oh, my name is Takuto Kira. Nice to meet you," he said cheerfully. "So, may I walk you home?"
"Walk me home? Well, ok," Mitsuki said nervously. They had a quiet walk back to her house. When she arrived back at her house, she waved good-bye to him and went inside. She greeted her grandma and Tanaka-san, setting down the groceries in the kitchen and then she walked into her room and closed the door and slide down onto the floor. Her face was surprised and blushing as she replayed what had happened when she tripped. 'Takuto Kira huh? He looks like he's only a year older than me; maybe he goes to my school?' She thought to herself. 'No, that can't be. I would have noticed him before now if he was in my school.' She jumped onto her bed and thought for awhile. After a few minutes she got up and took a book out of her bookshelf. 'In any case, I should give him something in return.' She opened the book and got out her sewing materials, and set to work on another stuffed animal keychain, this time she was making a white cat with a bell collar.
