My Old Friend

Note: This story is based on an old friend I haven't seen for a couple years, and, yes, it has one of my own characters in it.

Prologue

It was a sunny and warm fall day, and Akane was just going to the library to get some books, when she saw someone she thought was one of her classmates she wanted to avoid. So she hid. She was a little early to the library, and it was about to open in 5 minutes, so it was a little awkward that she was hiding.

Then they boy saw her, and he got up from his seat on the bench and said, "Hi, what is your name?"

Akane was a little shocked to see that this boy wanted to talk to her and replied, saying, "My name is Akane."

The boy then moved closer and said, "My name is Kintaro*."

Akane immediately recognized him as one of her old friends that she hasn't seen for quite some time, so she asked him, "Do you need help carrying those books?"

Kintaro said, "If you want to help, and, what are you here for?"

"Oh, I'm just looking at books to see which ones are good to read, and what about you?" she replied, looking at all his books again, pretty stunned.

"I've been waiting outside for half an hour, and by the looks of it, they just opened the library door, so, we can go in," he said, moving to where his books were to pick them up and bring them in, "And I need to return these books and I want to check out some more books."

Akane helped him with the bag and they went inside to look at the books.

Note: Kintaro*= It is a Japanese name that means golden boy. All reviews are welcome! I will continue this soon!
