The Record Book
Based from a true love story, and the way I wish it could have ended.
Prologue
Ever since I went to Alice Academy, my life completely changed. I have grown into a lady, matured and set reasonable goals in life. Unlike when I was 10, I only thought of fun and becoming a princess in her own huge castle. I had experienced several hardships and trials. From pain, weariness and tears, I have learned. And now that the war between the rebel groups and the school is finally over, everybody, including me, is now at peace. Everyone else can enjoy their lives and live life to the fullest, in order to achieve their goals.
I'm Mikan Sakura, age 18, not the immature child everyone thought of me once. I'm still optimistic though, and I always keep on brightening the saddest people I encounter with my comforting smile. Seeing them happy because of me is enough to make my day.
I currently live a simple life as an extraordinary student. People look up to me like I am a hero, thinking that I am the most talented and gifted girl in the Academy. They idolize my theft and nullification alices, referring to having two very incredible powers altogether as being very lucky. I have several loving friends and connections, enough luxuries, and more-than-deserved grades. I am everyone's role model, and it is my responsibility not to fail their expectations from me.
They say that with great power comes great responsibility but I have experienced a lot of traumatizing events since I was ten. Modesty aside, I believe that being a leader is sort of a piece of cake for me.
I have everything I wanted and I'm more than happy to achieve these, but I can't help but feel that there is still a missing puzzle in my life. It's very frustrating to not know what it is.
I mean, I'm in my Golden Age.
What else could go missing?
Natsume closed the record book quickly, obviously highly affected by Mikan's words. He was only on the first page and yet, it felt like his heart was running a marathon.
"Why did Mikan give me her own journal book?"
A/N: I'll be focusing on this first before "A Week Full of Surprises" just to inform you :)
