Prologue

The Hill Where the Cherry Blossoms Bloom

I hated this town. I still do. I may have been born here, but this godforesaken place held only bad memories for me. Until I met her. Nagisa Furukawa. She was small for her age. She was a year older than me, but I was about a foot taller. We were in our senior year at Hikarisaka High School. She had nobody she could call a friend, because all her friends graduated, leaving her behind. Because of an illness that lasted nine months, she'd had to repeat her senior year.

We met at the bottom of a hillside path in front of the school. She was just standing there, alone. Her hair was a striking red color, and stopped just short of her shoulders. For some reason, my hair was the color a blueberry, God forbid. Then, she spoke.

"Anpan!"

I stopped in my tracks. Anpan? Then, she said something else.

"Do you like this school?"

I decided that she couldn't be talking to me. She was probably speaking to someone in her heart.

"I like it very, very much!"

Good for you, then. That was when I noticed that she had two strands of hair that popped out like antennae. Strange. I opened my mouth to speak, but this girl wasn't done.

"But nothing stays the same. Fun things...happy things. It always changes. They never stay the same. Even so, do you think you could still love this place?"

She had a high voice, like a small child. I actually kind of liked it. Finally, I spoke up.

"Then go find them. Go find the fun and happy things."

The girl jumped, as if she had received a painful shock, and turned to face me. A breeze threw pink and white cherry blossoms around her. She was beautiful, with large, honey eyes and rosy cheeks. Her eyebrows were fine and she had a small button nose. For some reason, I couldn't stop thinking about how adorable she looked. I moved forward.

"You comin'?"

Side by side, we walked up the cherry blossom hill to school. That was how Nagisa Furukawa and I met. On the hill where the cherry blossoms bloom.
