Behind Dark Eyes
Prologue:
"Please don't go, Kazu." My little brother pleaded me. He was just going into elementary school, and his English was choppy. "It's going to be a real, real long time before I see you again! I know! You can take me! I'll hide in your bags!"
"No Ren, you have to stay here..." I smiled softly as I ruffled his soft, black hair.
"Are you ready, Kazumi?" My mother called, she was very impatient, mostly because she was in a wheelchair and it took a few extra minutes to get her in the van. I sighed and closed my suitcase and grabbed Ren's hand and walked downstairs.
"Help your mother in the car. I'll put your bags in the back." Said my father; he was a very stern man. He didn't like the idea of having a girl; so when I was accepted for the foreign exchange program, he was furious. But then he looked at it as an opportunity to not see me for a year, and he took it. Now he was just in a rush to ship me off to the United States.
At the airport, I was embarrassed standing in line with my father. Apart from being stern, he was also very temperamental; he was yelling at the lady behind the desk for "messing up my flight number", because he mistook the time my actual flight left. So they gave him a courtesy ticket for his misunderstanding, and I was rushed off to the next available flight.
I didn't know what to expect when I woke up with a start, and got my first glimpse of America. It looked promising. I couldn't wait to get to school, even though it was a week away.
My name is Kazumi Nakamura, and I am Bullworth Academy's first foreign exchange student.
