Everyone's got his or her own dreams. They want to be something, own
something or accomplish something. My dream is to be a writer. Of course,
if I tell anyone else that, that would laugh. You see they don't find me to
be smart they just see my beauty. That's not what I want. So I am secretly
starting this journal in hopes that one day, my dreams will come true.
My name is Mimi Tachikawa. I just moved to Odaiba, Japan. Of course, I lived there before for years, and I had a lot of friends. My parents decided to uproot me, and off we went to New York, in the United States. I quickly became "Miss Popular" over there. I've lived there for years. I haven't been to Odaiba since I was 10. Now I'm 17 and it's time to return, or so my parents have said.
I stepped into my new house, a large mansion type place. There were 3 floors, and with a grin, my parents told me the top floor was all mine. The attic belonged to me. I trudged up the stairs to the door of my new room. I sighed and slid it open to find a wondrous place full of so much potential. It was like what you would call an apartment I suppose. My jaw dropped as I gazed into each part of the floor. I had a kitchen area, a bathroom complete with a large tub, a large bedroom, and a living area w/a beautiful bay window.
All my furniture had already been brought up and arranged. It just looked so wonderful; maybe moving back wouldn't be so bad after all. I collapsed on the new pink couch and drifted off.
I woke the next morning at 7:30. My mother was standing over me, shaking me slightly. "Darling, you have to get up, or you'll be late for school."
I nodded, and walked into my bedroom. I took the first look at my uniform. It was a green kilt, white dress shirt, green knee high socks and a green tie. My first thoughts were basically on how ugly a green it was, but then decided I could make it work. I pulled on the kilt, then took some safety pins and shortened it. Then I put on the dress shirt and tied it in a knot so it showed off my stomach. I put the tie on so it hung loosely around my neck. After I put my socks and dress shoes on, I picked up a green coloured scrunchie that matched the uniform green.
She put her hair up into a loose ponytail, and looked herself over in the mirror. 'Another day.' she thought to herself as she put the finishing touch lip-gloss on. Smiling to herself, she closed the door to her room and bounced down the stairs. "Bye Momma! Bye Daddy! I'll see you later!"
I sat down in my new Black Jaguar convertible and raced off toward school. I put on my techno CD and blared it as a sped down the roads.
I won't bore you with the details of my arrival, but I'll just say I got plenty of looks, whistles and whispers, nothing new.
I found my class easily and slid into a seat at the very back corner, just as the bell rang and people filed in. Even there I was getting looks, and I can tell you, that it was getting rather tiring.
"Hello class!" a middle aged plump man said as he waddled into the classroom. His name was Mr. Panquin also know as Mr. Penguin. "We have a new student today, Mimi, so I hope you'll all treat her well." The teacher kept talking, but everyone kept looking at me. I blushed slightly and gazed off into space, wishing class would end.
The class ended and I rushed out to find my next class. 'Just this class then lunch.' I thought to myself as I found my classroom. 'Oh how I can't wait'.
Class finally ended and I left the classroom as soon as I possibly could again. I didn't really want to go to the caf because everyone would be staring again. I couldn't take that, so I darted out one of the doors and looked around for a place to sit and eat. I spotted a couple of trees that looked like the ideal spot so I quickly headed of towards them.
As I got nearer, I noticed that a large part of the tree was taken. A large group a people of a variety of ages sat around laughing and talking. The suddenly stopped as I walked by and sat as far away form them as the trees would allow, and I pulled out my notebook to write in.
The whispers started, and I could hear them say that I was that new girl that ignored everyone. Just then the whispers stopped as 2 sets of feet appeared in front of me.
"Hello! You must be new!" one of the pairs of feet said.
"You can come sit with us, so you won't have to be lonely all the way over here." The second pair said.
I looked up and almost fell back with surprise and recognition. The two pairs of feet were people I called my friends before I moved to New York.
"My name is Sora Takenouchi," a petite tomboy with auburn hair stated. "And this is Hikari Kamiya" Sora said, pointing to a young women with brown hair.
"And you are?" Hikari asked politely.
"Leaving" I said, almost reluctantly as I stood up and began to walk away. I didn't really want to, but I had made a promise that I wasn't break. I made a mistake, however. When I walked away, I took a look back at the group, and felt a dull ache in my chest that almost made me run back. I knew almost all of them, and known of them seemed to recognize me. One of the guys kept staring at me intensely, and I looked away out of shame.
Most of that group in my last 2 classes, so I was constantly avoiding everyone's gaze more then normal. When class ended, I left in a hurry and moved quickly to my car. I finally reached home and breathed out a sigh of relief.
Saying a quick hello to my parents, I trudged up the stairs and flopped down in front of my computer, and logged onto MSN. I had everyone on there, from both Odaiba and New York. Only two people were online, Sora and Yamato Ishida.

I stared shaking at her computer screen. 'How did he find out? I was totally careful?' Thoughts plagued my mind as I made myself a quick sandwich and flopped down on my bed. As I slowly slipped into the unconscious, memories from when I left Odaiba floated into my mind.
*Flash back*
"I'm. I'm." a younger, 10 year old me stuttered.
"Spit it out already Pinky!" a young boy with unruly brown hair stated.
"Cut it out Tai! She's obviously upset!" a younger blonde cutie snapped.
"But out Matt! I don't need to listen to you!" Tai yelled back.
Tai and Matt started bickering while everyone else watched hopelessly. This was nothing new to any of them. Matt and Tai always fought.
"I'm moving." I whispered, trying desperately to hold back my tears. Only Sora heard me say it.
"What?!" she screeched, getting everyone's attention and even stopping Matt and Tai from fighting.
"I said I'm moving. To New York. It's in the U.S and really far from here and I'm gunna miss you guys!" I cried out, letting the tears slip down my distraught face.
Nobody dared to move, or dared to even breathe. Only the sounds of my sobs were heard. Suddenly more joined in and Everyone was crying. I didn't want to see them upset, so I said goodbye and ran off.
I was suddenly pulled to a complete stop as a pair of arms encircled me. I screamed, but was silenced as I looked up and saw Matt. He planted a light kiss on my lips and blushed "Never forget me Meems. Never forget your friends here."
He then dashed off, leaving me standing there, my fingers lightly touching where his lips lay moments before. "Damn you Matt! You had to make leaving even harder. But I can't keep that promise. I will have to try to forget you all, to make the pain less. Goodbye Matt, goodbye everyone. Goodbye Odaiba."
