Simple Words: Chapter 1- The Diary
Diary Entry # 5
Dear Diary,
School is so hard! I have a hard time concentrating and I do poorly in test! Even with all the help that I get from Sohma- kun! But, I have to do my best, for mom!
Ever since she past away, I've felt that no one really cares for me, except for grandpa. My auntie and uncle are so mean to me. I remember that time when Sohma- Kun and Kyo- Kun came to pick me up. It all seemed like yesterday. You see, I used to live in a tent and one day Sohma- Kun and Shigure- Kun invited me into their home after an avalanche destroyed the tent I used to live in. I was supposed to live in it until the renovation's in my grandpa's home was finished. I didn't want to burden Hana and Uo about living with them until the renovation was finished, but they have done so much for me that I couldn't ask for more. And that brings us to how I live with the Sohmas! They've taken care of me so much and I get to know each of the Sohma's each day and get closer to them!
The Sohma that I care about the most would be Kyo. I mean, I care about them all, but I've always wanted to be born in the year of the cat and I've loved the cat ever since I was little. I would have given up being the dog and go to being a cat! When I found out about this guy named Kyo being possessed with the spirit of the cat in the Junnishi curse, I knew that I'd love him the moment I met him. And it was true! It was kind of weird in the way of how I met him. The day I met him was the day that I found out about the curse and I've sworn not to tell about it to anyone! I won't write about the curse here in my diary for the fear that someone might read it. Well anyways, back to Kyo. Although I've just met him, I feel as if I've known him for a long time. He has a really hard life, the hardest of all the Sohmas. Well, at least I think so. Kyo doesn't know this but, I love him. I mean, I know that I love him for being the cat and all but I love him for him. I've always loved the cat and when I met him, I knew he was different from everyone else. I don't know why I do but I love him.
I mean, there is Sohma- Kun, but I think I love him as a brother. He's really nice to me and all but I don't feel that different or feel the same way towards him as I do towards Kyo.
I really want to tell Kyo about the feelings I have for him, but there are many reasons why I don't. First of all, Akito. I don't think he'll allow any of the zodiacs to be in a relationship because they're "different" from everyone else. Secondly, I don't think that Kyo feels the same way towards me and If I do tell him how I feel, he might reject me and that might break our friendship or make it feel weird between us and I don't want that to happen. And finally, I just don't have the guts to ask him. So until then, my feelings for him will be locked up in my heart.
Love,
Tohru
Tohru POV
The bell rang to go to the next class. I gathered all my stuff quickly and stuffed it into my bag. I didn't want to be late for my next class so I rushed into putting everything away. I ran out of the room and on the way I passed Kyo. He smiled and waved at me causing me to blush. I returned the smile and turned away so he wouldn't see my face. "Oh, kyo looks so cute when he does that!" I thought in my head. "I'm such an idiot for blushing!"
I walked into my next class on time and took my seat and looked for my diary in my backpack.
Kyo POV
The bell rang to get to the next class. I walked down the hallway and passed Tohru. I would be going to the class she came from and she would be going to the class I just had. I gave her a smile and she returned it, but then she turned away. I wonder why she did that. Did I do something wrong? I hope I didn't.
I walked into class and took my seat. I dazed at the off as the teacher lectured us about something. I dropped my pencil and bent down to pick it up. As I did, a bright pink journal next to it caught my eye. I picked it up and put it in my backpack. I mean, what's wrong with that? It should keep me company and entertain me during class.
Tohru POV (Back with Tohru)
I searched frantically through my backpack and I still couldn't find it! Where could it be! I just hope no one found it… or worse! I hope they didn't read it!
Okay, so that was chapter one! Tell me what you think! I'll take all that criticism, so yeah. Review away! It's all that criticism that makes us better writers. So go ahead. I just pray I won't get hurt deeply, but hey that's reality!
Thanks and I'll update after 5- 10 reviews?
Please and thankies!
