My Secret
'We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.' -Mother Teresa
[M. Akimoto]
Akimoto...Miwa!
I woke up and took a deep breath. Don't be afraid, I mentally thought to myself. I checked my alarm clock...Really?! It's only 6 A.M., and my brain won't even give me or itself a bit of a break. Considering it was so early though, I started thinking back to last night: the only night I remember so far...
FLASHBACK TO: 11.23 P.M., 6 February 2013, Wednesday
I woke up, and I was lying on the floor. There was a black digital alarm clock next to me. It displayed the time: 23.23 6.2.13. And in front of me was a opened purple luggage with many clothes inside...Wait. Were those my clothes?...And...Who am I? Where am I? Why don't I remember anything? All of a sudden a whole flood of questions rushed into my head and I just wondered where I was and what was I doing.
I have to be strong. I have to be strong...
I repeated that phrase in my head, it seemed like an instinct for me to say that in my head, and it made me feel better. With that I forced myself to calm down and clear my eyes of any tears. The feeling was weird, for me. I think it would've been for anyone actually, and even now, I'm still not use to it: Waking up by yourself in a room, and not recognising anything. Having to calm yourself down, when you don't even know your own name or how you can even talk or have the knowledge of a common human. Or even not knowing how you know what a human is.
Anyhow, my instinct had made me skim around the brightly lit room, and immediately my attention was drawn back to the luggage I saw earlier. However, what I didn't see before though was a purple paper rolled neatly up and tied by a purple ribbon that showed a few signs of fraying. Curious to at least know anything I quickly pulled the tail of the big fancy ribbon and the purple paper rolled down with ease.
And then I read the letter.
FLASHBACK ENDS: 12.09 P.M., 7 February 2013, Thursday
Suddenly, my alarm clock started ringing like crazy. I have to get ready for my new school: Namimori Middle.
"Okay class, let me introduce you to our new student: Akimoto Miwa. She has recently moved to Namimori from Italy, so please make her feel welcome." Sensei briskly said to Class 2-A.
"You can just call me Miwa. Nice to meet you!" I said back to the class, holding in back all my nervousness.
After I was allocated my seat, Sensei had started teaching Maths straight on time. Anyways, I somehow remembered all these formulae and equations that the class was being taught. With this, I started raising my hand for each question and answering all the questions with accurate and precise answers. I didn't even know that I knew how to do all these maths problems. I deduced that it must've been common sense; everyone else probably thinks that these maths problems were too easy too. Like Sensei had directed a question to a pretty arrogant-looking guy called 'Gokudera' and he had also answered the question pretty easily. However, just in a matter of a few seconds my conjecture was proven wrong when I heard Sensei call out to another student to answer another question.
"Tsuna! You can answer this question: a square + b square = ?"
"Eto..." the brunet replied.
I peered over to this 'Tsuna''s direction and I saw, to my surprise, Tsuna's face was COMPLETELY BLANK. And then on Tsuna's right-hand side there was Gokudera. He was doing outrageously fast but random hand gestures to which I could quite accurately say that...Gokudera was trying to sign-language to Tsuna the answer. I was also pretty sure to say though, that not even Einstein would understand what Gokudera meant with those movements.
My thoughts were cut off by Sensei's sharp voice however, "Gokudera, I know that although you may have learnt this schoolwork in Italy just like Miwa, but allow Tsuna to just try work this one out".
Hearing this, I once again trailed off into my thoughts: Does this Gokudera know anything about me? Because I supposedly come from Italy and Sensei said that Gokudera came from Italy too! And I should trust what the letter had told me:
'Your name, Akimoto Miwa. Akimoto, being your family name, while Miwa, your first name. Your background: You come from Italy...'
Plus, there were many other things said in the purple letter last night that I didn't understand, yet. I decided that I need to acquaint myself with Gokudera, because it might lead me to a some important information that I need to understand about myself.
Then class had finally finished.
I decided that I could spend this break to explore around the school or find a nice place to settle, and then I could go and meet Gokudera at lunch time. So with that, I started to wonder around the school. I couldn't really comment on if it was a big school or a small school though because I had no other school in my memory to compare Namimori-chuu to. Hm...so where can I go to then? Somewhere that has to be nice and pleasant... This thought then left me pondering all the way until I somehow made it up to the rooftop of the school.
There was a very pleasant breeze and the sun was warm here. I decided that I actually really liked this rooftop of Namimori Middle. It was also quiet, away from the crowds of students that hang around in the school. Not that I hate too much people, it was just that the quiet was really nice here. It suited my personality in a way I guess. Then all of a sudden, the door to the rooftop opened with a creak and a guy with jet black hair and a very nicely ironed uniform walked out. However, I didn't remember seeing him in my class, so I was surprised when he started talking to me.
"Herbivore. What are you doing here?"
Then it hit me! This was my first time talking to someone (apart from the reception and teachers that didn't seem too friendly) that was at least somewhere near my age! Excited with so many questions to ask in my head, I started off with one I was thinking before,
"Say, don't you find this school big?" I said with a slight smile. I had completely ignored his weird use of the word 'herbivore' before and his question. Plus, being so excited to talk with someone, I had turned off any warning senses that I had.
"I'll bite you to death for crowding here."
"Hey, that doesn't answer my ques..."
Then he started walking towards me with his tonfas in his hands, and I realized that he didn't plan to answer my question. In fact, he gave me a very deadly stare as he walked towards me. I then somewhat recalled that tonfas were weapons that could be quite deadly if used professionally. I also then somewhat recalled that I didn't decide that I wanted to die yet, and this guy looked truly serious about killing me as he took long strides toward me.
As I took a few steps back in terror, I accidentally stepped on a stone. Maybe this would do?! So I lodged the mini stone over to this scary-looking...carnivore?
I must have had really good aim because the sharp small stone scraped a bit of the skin off his arm... Oh no! I actually hit him? What am I going to do now? He's going to really kill me now! I thought to myself as I saw the expression on this guy's face turn even more serious. I closed my eyes and tensed myself as I didn't know what I could do now that I hit him.
Then I got hit in the head.
Really hard.
By his tonfa.
"OOOOOOOW."
"Get back to class, weak herbivore". And then he walked off.
What was that all about? Does he always hit people? AND WHEN DID THE BELL RING?I felt a big huge bruise coming to my head but I didn't think too much of it as I packed all my things back into my bag and sprinted back to class.
So...did you like it? Hey, sorry some things may seem mysterious in the plot but I'll get to it! Please review my FanFic and help me make it better!
Again, thanks for reading! Sorry it was so short as well...I'll try make it longer next time! And I'll try update sooner, before school starts in two days :O
Bye bii~
