Okay, so this is my very first fanfic but I've been writing for about 3 years now. Hope you enjoy this. :P
--Prologue:
I walked slowly inside the mist-filled, not-so-vacant, soundproof room. There, I found a piano sitting in the center of the room. The piano was white—all white. I slowly walked towards the piano and touched its smooth, scratch-free edges. Something inside of the piano just kept on calling my name. "Kaho.. Kaho." It was so tempting that I sat down on the piano chair, that was frankly too short for me, and started to play it. The sonnet I was playing was my own composition and I'm pretty proud of it. The piano was soon going to be ours, though. But yet, I still played it with great caution with a fear that I might break it. I gently touched and pressed the keys of the piano and closed my eyes. I listened carefully to the beautiful melody I was creating I guess I got so carried away that I started to sing to my own tune. "Imagine if the pillow that you cried on was my chest and the tissue that you wiped your face with was my hand." Then, I stopped for a moment. NO! I don't' want to play the piano, no more. I love the violin. I love it. But then again.. I don't know how to play it.
Chapter1: A Bump to Remember.
RIIIING! It was my alarm clock. Again. Hi! My name is Hino Kahoko. And my family and I currently live in Japan. But unfortunately, we have to migrate to New York in a few years so I guess I have to get the best from Japan now. So, I'm currently 15 so I'm just a sophomore. I will be studying in Seisou University, I guess, a music school. My journey to learning a new instrument and learning to love it started with that morning.
As I reached out my hand and pressed the alarm button, I poked my little head from under the bed sheets and squinted my eyes. "Gosh!" Kaho sighed." It's 6 in the morning and there's no school until tomorrow!" So I thought to myself. "hmmmm." I snapped and finally knew what was going on. I crossed my hands and raised an eyebrow. "MOM! Must be her fault. Who else could it be? My sister?!" So, I jumped out of my messy, messy bed and looked at the mirror. There, I saw my reflection, ofcourse. "I'm finally learning to play the violin tomorrow. Aren't I supposed to be excited?" I thought to myself. After a few minutes of daydreaming about me playing the violin, I finally snapped out of the dream world and yes, back to simple, old me. So, I brushed my messy, hair-in-the-morning redheaded curls and ran down the stairs. I'm supposing that my mom is already down stairs. I didn't here her banging all the books again inside her room because of her clumsiness. So yeah, I went to the kitchen but had a little doubt inside of me that she's in there. Well, simply because. For a girl and a mother, she really is not that good inside the kitchen trust me. As I rushed inside the kitchen, still having doubts that she's there, my eyes widened. There, I saw my dark, shorthaired mother flipping a pancake. And guess what? She's not failing OR burning them! I was still a bit sleepy since she woke me up 6 in the morning. So technically, my eyes were sleepy, too. But after seeing mom do that, my eyes just popped.
"Mom! You're cooking!" I exclaimed. Mom looked at me like she saw a ghost. I guess I frightened her. "Jeez, Kahoko, keep it down. You're sister I still sleeping you know." She scolded and raised a brow on me. "Sorry, mom. Oh yeah, good morning. I was just a bit surprised you were cooking. `Cause usually, I do that." I chuckled. She then crosses her arm and chuckled, too. "I'm not that bad am I? I know how to cook to you know." She said without hesitation. She's pretty confident of cooking pancakes since you just flip `em when they're done. I gave my ever-caring mother a sincere smile. "I know, mom." Mom was always there for me. I know. I've been worrying lately because I wasn't confident of going in an exclusive music school. Yes, I've always loved playing the piano. But I come to this school to learn something more that a little piano keys. I guess she's always kept me up. Speaking of mom.. I suddenly remembered what she did! "Uhm. Mom? Can I ask you something?" I asked acting all serious. "What is it, Kahoko, dear?" She stiffens. I guess she's worried because I had a serious face? I heard an evil laugh suddenly inside my head. Yeah, it's weird. I bowed my head a bit. And.. "Why did you wake me up at this time!?" I blurted out laughing. She sighed. I guess she was pretty much relieved that it wasn't real serious. I sorta felt guilty, though. Well, she is my mom I shouldn't have done it. But, she laughed so I guess it's okay. "Well?" I asked while waiting for her to answer on the rights of a 15-year old teenager trying to get some sleep while there's no school. She finally stopped laughing and got back to her cooking. "Well, I wanted to get new clothes for you since you're going to a new school tomorrow." She excitedly replied. "And? `Cmon mom, we have a uniform." I said eager for another answer. "Well.." she explained. "This school promotes on their students having a lot of outside activities. And I was guessing that you're going to need a lot of clothes since you're going to go out more." I can see it in her eyes when she said that. She was really excited on helping me be more adaptable to the new surrounding and grounds that I will be facing tomorrow in Seisou. I see, she's still a bit concerned about me even though there's entirely nothing to worry about. I can't argue with my mom `cause I know she's just doing what she thinks is better for me. So, I agreed.
Mom was so hyper and stuff when I said yes. She' started to get a little carried away, I guess. She talked to me while eating her half-burnt pancakes. I walked slowly to the bathroom to take a bath. I have to admit, I really am scared and very nervous. Even though mom was there to comfort me, it can't be helped being nervous, right? It is my first time to be in an exclusive school. I really thought about those kinds of things while taking a shower. It relaxed me a bit, though.
--In the Mall, 9:34 am.
"Oh! Look at that Shirt, Kahoko! I'm sure it would fit you perfectly!" This is what I was afraid of. MOM. She's MOM! She gets all hyped up and stuff and drags me all around the place. But besides all of these, I'm happy. Seeing mom so happy like this is just once in a while. So I guess I have to bear with it. "Oh `cmon, Kahoko, try it on. I think it looks good on you!" Mom said scurrying to me with a bunch of striking-colored shirts. I slapped my head then sighed. "Coming, mom! And yes, I will try all of these!" There was a LOT of shirts, trust me. When you go shopping with my MOM, you can never have to many to fit. But in the end, you just end up buying maybe 2 or 3 of the clothes you tried on. The pile I was carrying was so freaking high that I didn't even see where I was going! And because of that.. *THUMP* Dang, I bumped someone! I fell on the floor on my bottom(LOL) and the big pile of clothes I was carrying went flying all over the place. I fell on the floor real hard, and it hurts. It was my fault so I had to apologize. "Ow. I'm really sorry. You see, I couldn't see where I was going and.." I suddenly stopped talking because I saw a hand in front of me. I held it and stood up quickly and when I finally was on my two, very clumsy feet, I saw the guy who held his hand out to help me. He was a bit taller than me and he had forest green colored hair. The colors of his eyes were also green so it matched up perfectly. He wore blue unbuttoned polo with a plain white shirt as an undershirt. He also had blue camo pants and wore sneakers with it. He had a sad and concerned look in his face. I saw that face so I said with an I'm-okay smile, "oh, I'm sorry. I didn't see you because of the clothes I was carrying." I then bowed to him as a sign of sorry. "Gah! Don't bow down!" he said surprised. So I quickly raised my head and scratched my red curls. He smiled at me because he sensed that it was all okay. So as a sign of response, I smiled back at him.
Oyeah! Guess who! :I think you guys know who he is! xD YEY! :P
