Yo! This is my first story here. I plan on at least 10 chapters for this one. Constructive criticism is always welcome! Don't worry chapter 2 won't take long to upload. Thanks! :)

"It was a windy afternoon in the busy streets of Tokyo. Sushi bars and Ramen houses are filled with customers. The maid cafes are bustling with tourists who went there for the first time. Otaku's are out on the street, shopping for manga and collectibles. It was always like this. Seeing the same people walking on the street,seeing the same people in the Sushi bars and Ramen houses, it's becoming an eyesore to me. Will I ever see him cross the street? Will he eat at the restaurants here? Will he sip his coffee from any of these maid cafés? Does he like collecting figures? I don't know. I just want to...see him."

"Alright mom I'll be back by 7!"

A boy in his teenage years went out of his beautiful home. He was an energetic kid who wants to be a Doctor when he graduates. He has red hair, white skin, and is often called "cute" which he finds embarrassing. His parents are very successful in their careers. His father is a world renowned chef, considered as one of the best chefs in the world. His mother, was a former idol in her youth. Now she is a platinum singer who sold over half a million copies of her latest album around the world in less than 24 hours. He has an elder brother. Handsome, tall, and intelligent in class. Both of them get along well and almost agree on the same things. His brother wants to be a Football player when he graduates. They are rich indeed, but they never forget to cherish each other because they are a family, a family that loves each other and cares for each other and given the parents' hectic schedule they still give most of their time to their children.

"Wow, there are so many people out in the streets" the boy thought to himself.

As he was walking along, he thought of what he should do today. Normally, he just walks along the street looking for a coffee shop not filled with people. He brings out his laptop, a notebook, and a folder filled with documents and he'll continue his research in becoming a Doctor. Walking along the sidewalk whilst evading businessmen who were late for work and would just literally shove the people in front of them he finally saw a decent Coffee shop across the street. But, he saw a silver haired girl wearing a dress and a summer hat. The girl checked her phone and left while humming a song that sounded familiar to the boy. He followed the girl and went on to tap her shoulder but before he could do that, he saw a vision of a school, a group students wearing a brown coat with a patch of what seems to be a fraternity logo, and a pistol.

"Aaaggghh!" the boy cried, falling on his knees and holding his head

The girl turned around to see what was going on, he saw the boy on his knees while holding his head which seems to be in excruciating pain.

"Are you alright?" Asked the silver haired girl. "Yeah, I'm sorry to bother you" the boy replied while trying to get his senses back.

The silver haired girl was in shock, the face of the boy was familiar. It was the boy she was looking for. Although she doesn't remember that boy's name, she was certain it was him. The boy on the other hand seemed confused. The girl was staring at her and he was getting creeped out, and he thought that he had to break the ice. The boy then asked "Uhm, the song you were humming, it sounded familiar. Do you know the name of it?" the boy kindly asked "Not really, I just... I don't know the name of it sorry." replied the girl "Oh,alright then. I'm Yuzuru Otonashi." the boy said with a big smile on his face "I-I'm...Kanade Tachibana." the girl said

Hearing that name, Otonashi saw another vision. This time it was a red-haired boy with a silver haired girl. Both of them are holding hands wearing the same coat he saw from his earlier vision and they were at the same school that he saw earlier too.

"Agh!" Otonashi felt his head was being punctured by thousands of needles "Hey are you alright?!" Kanade asked with her face in shock."Yeah I'm fine, must be the weather that's making my head go crazy." Kanade tried to keep her cool. "The name, the face, it's...Otonashi! The boy I'm searching for" she murmured to herself.

"Hey do you mind if I ask where you're headed?" Otonashi asked. "I'm actually going home..." Otonashi thought that this might be a dumb idea but he shrugged it off and asked "Can I walk with you?" "Sure!" Kanade's answer was faster than a heartbeat which put a smile on the face of Otonashi.

The two walked along, talked about a lot of things though Kanade didn't want to "spoil" the moment by giving Otonashi more visions of their past in the afterlife. She thought to herself that in order to make the boy he loves remember everything , she has to win his heart and make him remember things slowly, just like how a guitarist must learn each chord of the guitar slowly before playing the entire song.

...And so the two finally reached Kanade's home. Otonashi was in shock since his house was literally just four blocks away from Kanade's house. Kanade's house was just like Otonashi's. Big, beautiful, filled with flowers and the kind of house you see from Beverly hills in Hollywood California (duh they live in a private subdivision for rich people lol).

"Well, I guess this is goodbye?" Kanade said with a sad face "I guess. It was nice meeting you by the way." Otonashi started to walk away whilst smiling and waving his hand at Kanade. Kanade didn't want the chance to slip away from her hands and so she yelled at Otonashi "Wait!" She ran up to Otonashi and: "Can I-I...have you're n-number?" asked the silver haired girl while blushing "Sure, I was about to ask that earlier too but I was too shy though." The two smiled at each other after successfully exchanging their numbers and Kanade hugged Otonashi from out of nowhere and the beautiful silver haired girl ran back towards her house...

Otonashi could've swore that the girl was familiar and the red-haired boy he saw in his vison looked like him. Confused and he felt that his head is going nuts again, Otonashi went back home, locked himself up in his room and wrote a note in his door: "Do not disturb, need a break from reality. Thanks! Love you guys!"

Kanade couldn't keep her excitement and she grabbed a piece of paper from her drawer and she hugged it. It was a sketch of Otonashi. Tears flowed from her eyes and she said to herself: "Don't worry Otonashi, I'll make you remember everything. Our friends, the school, the afterlife and most especially, our relationship...
