Ok they both happen on the same day at the same time frame you could say.
[Saturday 3:00 P.M.]
It was a hot Saturday afternoon at the racetrack, and the sounds of engines were roaring. A blue and gold car came speeding around one of the curves ahead of the other cars, it was #7. As #7 was approaching the start of the final lap #22 came up beside it. They were coming up on the final stretch and #22 was neck and neck with #7. They got closer to the finish line when #7 stepped on the gas and beat #22 with a cars distance and won the race.
When all the cars came to a stop the #7 racer Haruka Tenoh, exited her vehicle and waved to the cheering crowd. Haruka Tenoh a crowd favorite was the youngest racer on the circuit, as well as the first female one. She's one of the top racers out there winning almost all of her races.
While she was standing there a man came up and pulled her towards a podium where he then gave her a trophy for winning the race. The photographers and reporters started to take pictures and bombard her with questions. After awhile she was able to leave the crowd and head towards the changing rooms, on her way there she heard someone call her name.
"Haruka, congrats on winning another race." A dark haired man said.
"Hey, thanks Darien"
"Wanna go to a bar and celebrate with the guys?" Darien asked.
"Thanks, but I can't I'm going to a charity event soon, I gotta start getting dressed for it."
"Ok well hit me up of you still want to go after"
"Ok will do, bye"
She continued her way to the changing rooms and changed into a green and black track suit and headed towards her car to go home. She made it home and went to go take a shower. When she got out she got dressed in a white button up shirt and dark blue jeans. When she finished she left her place and went to her car and headed out to the charity event.
[6:00 P.M.]
When she got to the event she walked in and signed in with the lady at the counter letting them know she did show up.
"Hey" She said as she winked at the lady behind the counter who blushed lightly and pointed to the double doors off to the right.
"The event is being held in there"
Haruka smiled and nodded her head in thanks before walking through the doors. Inside was a giant room, the wall on the left side was floor to ceiling windows giving a great view of the outside garden with the doors to the garden. A giant white tent was set up with refreshments and beyond that the children were running around playing.
Inside the room there was tables where people could sit and eat or talk, then a dance floor, and beyond that a stage. Against the right wall a buffet was set up. Haruka walked outside to get something to drink and watch the kids play. Haruka grabbed a can of cherry coke out of the giant bowl filled with ice and a napkin.
As she was about to open it she heard crying and taunting voices coming from behind the table she went around and saw two boys and a little girl kneeling on the grass covering her face and crying. Both of the little boys were laughing.
"Ha-ha cry baby, I didn't even push you that hard!" one of the boys taunted.
The other one pointed "It's probably because her pretty dress got dirty!" he said mockingly.
Haruka had heard enough she walked up behind both boys. "How would you like it if I picked on you two" she said ominously and both boys froze and turned around.
She straightened up a bit using her full height to frighten them just a bit more and smirked evilly. The boys trembled slightly Haruka leaned close to their faces.
"Boo!"
Both boys ran away one tripping over the other and getting up again and running. Haruka watched them go.
"Bullies" she scoffed then turned back to the little girl. She couldn't have been more than 7; she had straight black hair with big purple eyes.
She was looking up at Haruka with tears still coming out of her eyes and dirt smudged all over her face and on her lilac dress, and one of her knees looked skinned. Haruka kneeled in the grass smiling brightly at her.
"Don't worry bout those boys, they're like that now but once they get older they will be attacking you with flowers instead." She said jokingly grabbing her napkin to wipe the tears off the now hiccupping little girl's face.
"Aww stop crying, you're too pretty to cry." She said as she wiped away the tears from the little girls face.
"So what's your name?"
"I'm Ho-Hotaru" she said through sniffles.
"Well it's nice to meet you Hotaru, I'm Haruka, wanna go sit with me and share a soda?"
"Ok" the young girl smiled.
They both got up and walked over to a table that was outside. They sat down at the table and Haruka was about to poor her some cherry coke when a thought occurred.
"Do you like Cherry Coke?"
"Yup yup, it's yummy"
"Alright perfect, here you go" she poured her half into a cup.
"So Hotaru huh? That's a pretty name."
Hotaru blinked up at her. "You don't have to be nice to me just because I'm an orphan." The little girl said with a solemn look in her eyes that was too old for a child her age. Haruka's eyes widened at the statement then she smiled.
"I'm not just saying it to be nice." Haruka said laughing lightly. Hotaru's cheeks puffed out in annoyance, and she looked like she was about to continue. Haruka held up a hand.
"I can tell that just by me saying that won't make you believe me, so here's what I'll do. I'll visit you again, and to prove it I'll give you something that means a lot to me. I want you to hold on to it for me."
Haruka said holding up her wrist. On it was a silver bracelet with a ying and yang in the middle. Haruka unclasped it from her wrist and held it up to Hotaru's surprised eyes. She wrapped it around the girls' tiny wrist and tightened it to the last one.
"Wow, so you really will come and visit me?" Hotaru looked at her with wide eyes.
"Of course I will, I enjoyed talking with you today, you're a very smart child." Haruka smiled.
"Thank you so much" Hotaru said as she tackled Haruka with a giant hug.
"Well I have to go now, but I will visit you tomorrow alright?" She smiled and patted the little girl on the head.
"Ok I can't wait!"
"Me too, bye"
After talking for about an hour with the little girl, Haruka left, and Hotaru stared down at the bracelet and then glanced up to watch her leave through the big doors.
[Saturday 3:30 P.M.]
The air was cool and the atmosphere was quiet aside from the sound of a violin and an orchestra that was playing the accompaniment. The violin crescendo as the orchestra decrescendo and came to a stop, so just the sound of the violin could be heard. It continued like this for a few more minutes when the violin started to decrease and then come to a stop. The sound of applause broke out and roses were scattered on the floor as the crowd threw them.
The lady that was playing the violin lowered the violin to her side and bowed to the audience. She then bowed to the orchestra as a sign of thanks. The conductor came up to her with a bouquet of roses and handed it to her; she kissed him on the cheek and spoke to him.
"Thank you for having me"
"No thank you, it was an honor to have you perform with us here Ms. Kaioh."
She continued to bow with the conductor when the curtain started to close. She started to make her way off stage and to her dressing room. She was about to change out of her dress when she heard a knock at the door.
"Hello Michiru Kaioh?" someone said behind the door.
"Yes, can I help you?"
"It's your agent; don't forget that you have the charity event tonight that you volunteered to go to"
"Yes of course I remember, thank you"
Michiru continued to change out of her teal dress and changed into a skirt and blouse. When she finished she made her way to her driver and headed to the event.
[6:00 P.M.]
When she got there she got out of the car and thanked the driver and went to the check in desk and let them know that she had arrived.
She said "Thank you" to the young woman who had a light blush on her face behind the desk. She proceeded through the double doors into the large foyer. When she went in she was about to head outside where the children were playing, when an older gentleman staggered over to her.
"Excuse me miss, are you the famous violinist Michiru Kaioh?"
"Yes I am" she answered sweetly.
"Wow, me and my darling Madeline just saw you in concert a few nights ago."
"Oh really? Did you and your wife enjoy it?"
"My wife? …Oh dear me, she's not my wife, she's my mistress." He said. She stared at him before she put on a smile to avoid the awkwardness.
"Oh, ok… well uh how did she like it?"
"She loved it, she said you were magnificent" He continued on.
[An Hour Later 7:00 P.M.]
"Wow you flatter me too much sir, I thank you but I must go now, thank you once again for the compliments" she said as she walked away from him in a quite rapid pace.
She made her second attempt to go outside. On her way out she meets the eyes of a tall blonde who winks at her. She gives the blonde a look that screams 'not gonna happen' and walks by the blonde without a second glance.
She walked outside and glanced to her right and saw a little girl with black hair kneeling behind a bush. She was watching the boys intently as they played around while rubbing the bracelet on her wrist. Michiru walked up to her and placed a hand on her shoulder, the little girl jumped a bit.
"Oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to frighten you"
"It's ok you didn't" the child smiled.
"Good, hmm if you don't mind me asking, what are you doing hiding behind the bushes?"
"Oh nothing just watching those boys over there"
"Why are you doing that?"
"Cause Haruka told me that when I get older they're gonna attack me with flowers." The child said with
"…" Michiru giggled. "I don't think they meant that they'll hit you with them, it means they will give you a whole bunch of flowers because they will want you to like them"
"Ooooohhhhhh… ewwwwww"
"You're a funny girl, what's your name?" Michiru giggled.
"I'm Hotaru!" she said as she put her hand out.
"Well it's very nice to meet you Hotaru, I'm Michiru" she said extending her hand to shake Hotaru's.
"Oh wow that's a very pretty bracelet you have there" she said as she noticed it when they shook hands.
"Yup, Haruka gave it to me since he promised to come see me again"
"To come see you again?"
"Yeah I'm an orphan so Haruka gave this to me to prove that he'll come back since I didn't believe him."
"Well that was very nice of him"
"Yup yup"
They keep on talking for an hour.
"Well it's getting late, I have to go"
"Awwwwwwwwwwwww really?" Hotaru said with a pout on her face.
"Yeah I'm sorry; I really enjoyed talking to you." She smiled.
"It's ok I enjoyed talking to you to"
"Hey are you always here or is this just for the event?"
"No, this is just for the event; we live in a smaller place."
"Oh I see, well bye Hotaru" Michiru hugged the little girl goodbye, and proceeded to walk away towards the double doors.
As she stepped through the double doors, she pulled out her cell phone and started dialing a number.
"Hi it's me Michiru"
"Hello Michiru, how can I help you?"
"I need an address" she says as she gets into her car.
