A twelve year old girl came hopping down the stairs,unknown to her a young boy of similar age was waiting for her at the playground. She ran towards the playground looking for her best friend,Keira. A girl with blue eyes too big for her doll like face came flying into her arms as she exclaimed ''Misa where have you been? We were supposed to meet for our English assignment!Now we are late."
"I have something to tell you. Mom called up and said she's got a transfer.I think I will be leaving boarding soon." The girl called 'Misa' watched as two cerulean orbs filled with water,before she could say anything,Keira broke down."Please don't go away.I'll be all alone if you leave."
"Keira,don't cry,look I tried telling mom but she is going to New Orleans and it's too far from here. Are you gonna cry all day instead of spending our last few days together? I believe we can get into a lot of mischief without anybody knowing, got a plan?" Misaki asked in order to lighten the mood.
"Sure,but first you must promise not to forget me. If you do,wait what I'll do to you." Keira replied in a cunning tone, sniffing the last of her sobs. Hand in hand they walked away,giggling and snickering thinking of the evil ideas popping up in their heads.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
As Misaki approached the blonde headed boy she saw him looking towards the sunset. She plopped down on the bench beside him."I am leaving hostel." she said quietly.
"Running away?" he questioned with a smile."Nooo I'm leaving as in my mom is taking me away." Misaki tried to explain but she was cut off by his next words."Finally, I thought I'd never get you off my back."he drawled.
The words stung her as she thought-This is it. No one will miss me if I leave. Am I so unwanted? Nobody cares. Forcing her tears back she told the boy,"Contrary to your belief I do not run after you Takumi,that would be plain disgusting,and-"
"Oh ya no wonder people find you trailing behind me everywhere, be it in basketball or tennis or during classes. You are the only girl playing in the football tournament and I have to take you in my team cause no one else will."
"That's because there is no football tournament for girls only,and even if you did not take me in your team I would get into some other team because I am a good player even better than you so do not think that you have done me a great favour, and for your kind information I do not trail behind you."Misaki shouted.
"Why can't you just play with the other girls?"
"That's because I like playing basketball more than hide and seek and the girls rarely play that!"
"No the truth is you have to try and best me at every damn thing and you just won't admit that I am better than you at all."
"Get over yourself you self-centred idiot! I am not less than you at anything and I got more than you in my mid-term exams"
" So what,I beat you in tennis yesterday."Takumi said with a smug smile."And I won the last race"he added. "Whatever I'm going inside" he shrugged and walked away leaving a fuming Misaki behind.
ŹZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
''sshhhh!"
" Keep quiet she will be here now! "
" Why is she not here yet?"
" Takumi, go fetch her. Hurry up."
" Why should I go? Besides she will be here I already made sure of that."
" She's coming, she's coming, hurry up, places! everybody, fast!"
Misaki walked into the classroom where she was scheduled to meet with Takumi. He had asked her to meet up saying he was up for a challenge. She was still pissed about the things he had told her yesterday so she would show him today that she was and always will be better than him. She was surprised to see the darkness so she called out," Hello..."
HAPPY FAREWELL TO YOU, HAPPY FAREWELL TO YOU, HAPPY FAREWELL TO YOU DEAR MISAKI, HAPPY FAREWELL TO YOU! "
Lots of claps and singing filled the room as the lights were switched on and Misaki found herself surrounded by her friends. She was so surprised that she felt tears filling her eyes. Sucking a deep breath she scolded herself for feeling sad at such rejoicing times. " Seriously guys, thanks a lot, I mean really really thanks all of you."
Keira stepped forward with a blue box in her hand ," This is for you and just remember that no matter what happens we'll always be friends...Promise ?"
With tears in her eyes Misaki said," yes" and then all she knew was that she was crying into Keira's shoulders and everyone was hugging her. So engulfed was she in her sorrow that she did not notice the blonde headed boy at the back of the room leave through the door.

She stood before the green gates which she would be saying farewell to very soon. Her mother was inside distributing farewell gifts to everyone, she had come out for some fresh to her left she began memorizing the curved patterns on the pillar next to her when she felt a hand on her shoulder. Turning back she saw her P.T. teacher, Mr. Korusuke standing there. He always seemed to have a soft spot for her. With his deep baritone voice he was easily intimidating to the students but not for Misaki, to her he was more like the father she never had. Taking her hand he took her to a bench in the corner. " You are a true player Miss. Ayuzawa, your struggle through each game has proved that. Always remember its not the winning that matters but the game itself and how you play it that's gonna make you the champion.Remember to keep your face to the sunshine and you will never see a shadow."
At that point she knew that someday she would make this man proud.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
It was the last time she would be seeing him she would be bad memories if it ended wirh a fight so she told herself repeatedly to keep calm.
But as usual he had to come with his big head full of ego and tell her it was stupid how everyone was crying because well one or the other time they all would have to part and then cell phones were invented for a reason and you could always keep contact and such stuff that pushed all calm thoughts out of her head and she ended up doing just what she'd been trying to avoid, that is shouting at him.
"Just leave me alone ! I hate you, so just go away, it's ok i get it you don't care so just leave me alone! and guess what?..you wouldn't know what i did or where i will be going, you wouldn't know if i laughed ,cried or died because you never looked for anything to do other than making me feel sick and this is the last time I am seeing you because I'm leaving so you can GO FUCK YOUR EGO!"
She had never felt so relieved and torn at the same time, before . Turning away she hoped she'd never meet him again. And then she walked out of his life forever letting the iciness of her hurt freeze every emotion she had ever felt for him.
