A thing to remember
It was a day like any other, a girl named Kagome passed by the botanical garden not that far from their home. She saw a girl who looks exactly like her, holding something that can't be seen by ordinary people. The warm rays of the sun bathed the grass yellow green, there's no one around. That girl sat on a white towel, on the grass. She isn't doing anything in particular with the thing she's holding, just quietly staring at it. Every now and then she'll look up in the sky, deep in her own thoughts. Her hair played with the gentle breeze, glowing as the ray of the setting sun hits it. It was such magnificent scenery, like the ones you normally see on a painting, with shadows and color contrasts with the light. A portrait of an eternal sunset that illustrates how sadness and happiness become one.
Out of pure curiosity she decided to approach the girl. Slowly, she walked towards the girls' direction. Kagome was surprise that she's already right in front of the mysterious girl, both locked their gazes on each other. The mysterious girl gave Kagome a warm smile and hugged her all too suddenly. In a warm caressing tone the girl asked Kagome if she could accompany her, even if it'll just be in a short period of time. Without any hesitation, Kagome agreed.
Time flew by fast, it's already midnight. The two girls sat side by side, they're looking at the beautiful night sky in their view. The stars are shinning brightly, there aren't single clouds in sight, and the moon isn't out either. It was clear starry night scenery. Intrigue by the thing that the girl is holding, Kagome asks what it is. Instead of answering the girl held Kagome's hand tightly and gave it to her. The girl said "This is very precious to me, I hope you'll take care of it"...
Kagome looked intently at it, its wrapped ion a bluish white silk. Kagome was about to open it when the girl spoke and said "Please don't open it yet, I still have to talk to you about a few things.". "I've found a friend" Kagome thought. The two talked all night, laughed and even cry because of joy. As dawn approaches, the girl once again held Kagome's hands and said. "Now you can open your gift". Kagome excitedly opened the gift and saw a heart-shaped locket. The locket was a rich color of silver, slowly she opened the locket. To her surprise she saw a picture of her and the girl inside the locket. As she looked at the girl with an inquiring gaze, the sun blocked her view, but she saw as the figure of the girl slowly fades away, and a warm voice saying "Take care always, my twin".
The next morning when Kagome woke up, the first thing that came in he mind was the vision of that clear starry sky, sitting beside a girl she doesn't even know. Then reality hit her, it was her twin. Kagome realized that she was holding something in her palm. It was the locket she got from that girl on that clear starry night.
Yesterday was their birthday, but the two of them had a fight, because Kikyo (Kagome's twin), didn't want to go star gazing with Kagome. Kikyo decided to buy a locket that day as a make-up gift for Kagome, but as she was on her way home she was hit by a car and died. Kagome finally remembered, as tears flow from her eyes, she solemnly prayed for her twin's soul and whispered a thank you that only yuuki will be able to hear..
