Prologue

Have you read or have you watched some love stories recently? When you were a kid, you may have heard fairytale stories like Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and Cinderella. And yes, you may have heard their prince charming as well, and then they married, and live-happily-ever-after-the-end sort of thing. Those were the days when you were a kid. You also watched some romantic stories on TV as you grow up. But let's just cut right there. I always ask myself: "Well there ever be a prince charming that will come to me and save me from trouble?" "That's just absurd", you might say. But who knows, in the end, the prince charming you've ever hoped for and your dream marriage might come true. But beware of the trials and triumphs.

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Runo Misaki. I am 24 years of age and yes you know it. I'm single. I'm now in Tokyo after I moved from Chicago. "Why" you may ask? Well, it's a long story. A very long story indeed. But you will find out later. Anyway, let me ask you: "What would you feel when your parents wanted you to move to another place or another country?" Well, for my part, after my father passed away because of stage 4 pancreatic cancer when I was just 12, my mother said to me that we are moving to Chicago. For me, it is a deadlock. "Why would we go to Chicago?" I thought to myself. Is it because she wants to run away and forget all the troubles in the past with my dad? I can't help myself crying in my bedroom for hours non-stop. I just couldn't stand it anymore. I kept on thinking my dad. And I asked myself this: "Should I go?" I kept on thinking hard enough. I don't wanna start a new life. I just wanted to stay in my house with my dad even though he is not here with me. I'm also going to miss my friends. But I don't have any choice. My mother applied me for a passport visa. And then my mom wanted to visit to a recruitment agency so that she wants to have a job abroad. The next day, my mom and I are started to pack. I took my cellphone off from my wallet and started texting to my closest friends. At the airport, I grabbed my cellphone and when I opened my inbox messages, there are 40 new messages in the past few minutes before we arrive at the airport. Some of these messages are from Julie, Alice, and Shun. But there is one message that is not only inspiring but it's really touching. Although it's long, I just couldn't help reading it over and over again. This message belongs to my one and only friend and he is none other than Dan Kuso. Dan is my closest friend since we were little. After all the fighting that we had, he's still my closest friend. Maybe you'll ask: "Do you have crush on him?" My answer: No comment on that particular manner. But you know what, he is handsome, gorgeous, and really funny. But that doesn't mean that I have a crush on him or something. When I read the message, I saw that he's not only a funny kind of person but he is also a person who gives an advice. Wow, I thought, that's the first time that he text a message like that. I liked the last part of his message: "Be strong. I know you could do it even though you're in another country. But I'll miss you so much." I was blushed at that time. And after I finished reading the message, the plane arrived and it was time for me to go and start a new life.

When I arrived at Chicago, it was very different. The buildings were different than in Tokyo. The streets are all busy. And lastly, it is very cold. When I moved in to an apartment, I saw a room filled with dirt. That room wasn't cleaned yet. So we moved in to that space and tried to clean everything up. When I reached 15, my friends texted me and said to me that they were here. I was very surprised when I saw them outside the apartment. I told them: "How do you guys know that we are living in that apartment?" They said to me that Alice knows Chicago very well and the residents there know her too. So we started to live a happy life.

That's the end of the story but when you read in the future chapters, you'll notice that it's not only about friendships or adventures. It's also about romance, drama, tragedy, and humor. And now I'm back to Tokyo, there are a lot of things for me to discover. I am going to experience love at the highest level possible. I'm also going to meet new friends along the way. This is going to be a one rocky ride. In the next few chapters that you're going to read, you will witness a flashback of me when I was just a high school student. You will then realize what is my experience when I was in high school. It's like in love stories on TV and in books. First, the journey when they were kids then proceed to the story proper. So do stay tuned as the author will update future chapters that will give you a ride of your life. And please be patient.
