Disclaimer: I don't own CLANNAD.
There's a reason why I always was in the library.
In the silence, flipping pages, while the windows let in a cool breeze in.
Eating when hungry, reading when not.
Sometimes, I didn't bother to go home, since it wasn't really a home.
The librarian asked if my parents mind. I shook my head, trying so hard not to scoff.
In this silence, the flipping of pages was more than enough for me. I didn't need anyone.
By then, a day that seemed normal like the others, I heard a familiar voice called, "Kotomi-chan!"
I turned my head and saw him. He looks older but I know it's him.
He continued to come to the library and talk and eat with me. He tells me to be more sociable. I met many different kinds of people, like the sarcastic yet kind Kyou-san, the gentle Nagisa-chan and the hilarious Sunohara-san. Even when that scary person appeared, he didn't leave my side. He gave me hope.
A teddy bear, I asked for it, and told my parents I hated them for not getting it. I regretted being so selfish. With him, by my side, I got it. It was a miracle that it even reached me, even if it was in a metal suitcase. I was certain I was his special someone, since he was mine.
I was wrong. Reality crushed me, like it crushed the Fujibayashi twins.
Okazaki Tomoya.
The name of the boy who had my heart since little and always will.
