Warning: Slight OOC! Consider yourself warned! Bwahahahahaha!

Chapter 1: Prologue

In the center of an Acacia garden stands a very elegant cherry blossom tree. But under that said tree, there sat a heart-broken lass with her knees brought right in front of her chest. Her golden blonde hair swung with every gust of the wind. She wanted to cry again but she had cried all of her tears last night. She adjusted her cute small rectangle glasses by pushing it with two fingers back in place. (1)

Girl's POV

Why is life like this?! I'm a total idiot! Fall for a guy and set your whole heart and mind into ONLY loving him and one day you catch him locking lips with another girl! You're a bona fide idiot, Ednaline!... sigh… I give up! Does life have to be this painful? Is my life really meant to be like this?

End of POV

Then she wrote a letter to somebody whom she didn't know, just to make herself feel better. After, she folded it into fours and placed it in a slightly opened bark of the Cherry blossom beside her. She marveled at the living colors of the Sakura (Cherry Blossom) tree and she inhaled, making mental notes that if she felt lonely she could come here. She began standing up just when a strong gust of wind blew and several carnation pink leaves of the Sakura tree fell all around her. She awed in amazement and delight. The sight of pink everywhere lifted her spirits up and she began twirling around, her arms outstretched in her sides parallel to each other. Her golden hair danced along with her and she came to a stop. She even didn't realize she was smiling. She nodded once and exclaimed, "Aja!"(2) While she bent her right arm in front of her vertically so as that her elbows were pointed to the ground and she thrust downwards.

"Roy, mi darlin'!" a girl with short dark brown hair that was held in place with a green hair band with the most high-pitched voice the world has ever known came running down the rose garden the Mustang's have. Roy's family owns a very large lot which was used for gardening. They own the Acacia garden and the single Cherry blossom tree that Roy has tendered himself. He watched the tree from it's being a seed to a full-bloom paradigm of beauty and splendor.

"Hughes! Do me a favor and court Susie! Or at least kill me! That's right! Kill me! Just kill me now!" A raven haired man coaxed as he choked his bespectacled best friend slightly.

"How could I possibly kill you if you're killing me first, dim-wit!" Hughes said as he pushed Roy's hands out of his neck.

"Oh, Rooooooy!!!!!" Susie prolonged Roy's name in a theatrical manner.

"I thought you liked ladies, Roy…" Hughes uttered while he smirked at the now terrified Roy Mustang.

"Yeah, but that's no lady! That's a nightmare!" Roy said as he pointed to the direction of Susie now a few meters away from their hiding place. Roy saw her coming towards them and he made a run for it.

"What happened to my darling, Maes?" Susie asked making an effort of looking cute. Hughes can't comprehend why Roy doesn't like her. She's beautiful and thoughtful.

"Um… Upset Stomach?" Hughes queried as he shrugged.

"Oh My! That's bad news! I'm going to the pharmacy right now! Oh my Roy! Just you wait for me sweetheart!" Susie said as she skipped back to the exit of the public garden that only a few people know about.

"Whew!" Roy exhaled noisily as he wiped the edgy sweat bids that slid down his face a couple of times. He leant on his back as he slid down the cherry blossom only he and his father knew about. This part of the garden was not private but he feels that no person ever gone this far of the public garden before. He was about to wipe another sweat bid but his sleeve got caught on a slightly open bark. He used his free hand to release his sleeve when a piece of paper that has been positioned below the bark caught his attention. He grabbed it and unfolded it after he got his sleeve free.

Hi,

I don't know who you are but thank you for reading this. It means a lot to me whoever you are. I'm a person who has experienced being heart-broken so I'd like to give you a piece of advice… Never love and give everything you have… don't make immense sacrifices for a guy who least deserves it. You can't be positive that he's the right man or woman you deserve. Don't love straightforwardly. Learn to make decisions because you might end up wounding your own heart. Life is no game. Learn to deem your limitations and go on. Hope this message finds you well…

Cherry Blossom

Roy blinked. He never knew that such a girl exists. He was stunned. There was actually a girl that was sincere and passionate. He wanted to meet who this 'cherry blossom' was. He got a pen and wrote a reply on the same sheet of paper and placed it in the exact same spot he found it earlier. He stood up and began walking; looking from side to side just in case he spots the person who wrote the message but unfortunately, he found no one. He puffed a heavy breath and continued walking.

He reached the exit of the Public Garden and turned right towards the coffee shop he really liked. He opened the glass door and scanned the Café. He saw four waitresses walking around the café, taking orders and serving food. He saw a man with light brown hair ordering at one side of the café. He turned his head to the side and saw a lady with black hair taking sips of her coffee while reading some documents. He was used to the café being like this. He enjoys being here to. The environment was very inviting and calming and was just near the garden. His attention was caught by a young woman with golden blonde hair who stood up from her seat and settled money in her table and headed to the exit with her head down. He stayed at the doorway and watched her walk. She accidentally brushed her shoulder with his and she looked up and he was surprised to see her eyes were also a deeper shade of gold. She wore small rectangular glasses which reminded him of Hughes. He smiled at her and she softly smile at him.

"Sorry…" she merely said with a soft feminine voice. She bowed and went out turning left. He nodded and walked to a table and motioned for a waitress.

When the waitress went back to the counter he leant back and remembered 'Cherry blossom'. He thought that playing around with girls was not all right. After reading the message he felt guilty. And then the image of the blonde he saw a while ago flashed through his mind. She had sad eyes under those cute eyeglasses. I wonder who she is, he thought.

1: Her glasses are not those nerdy types. It's those cute once like Kunimitsu Tezuka of 'Prince of Tennis' or those of Hughes! X3

2: Aja means 'I can do this!' This expression was taken from a favorite Koreanovela, "Lover's in Paris"
