Chapter:4
There at the back of the school akane was eagerly waiting for his opponent to come. As she had arrived early that morning, she was surrounded by silence everywhere. After waiting there for 20 minutes, the silence there broke.
"How are you akane……seems like you have come early". A guy walked in the battlefield.
Akane stood back in surprise, she had guessed and expected a stronger, cruel opponent but contrary to this the boy looked calm and happy. He was a boy with a smiling face and his eyes…….they were just so…..so innocent. Quickly akane washed these thoughts from her mind…..above all the boy had challenged her.
After coming back to her senses akane replied "I have not come early…….YOU ARE LATE."
"And by the way…..who are you?. she continued.
"Oh my! Why are you so impatient to know bout me…….Am I so handsome?" The guy gave her a cute smile.
Akane blushed but replied strictly "Its not that …… just wanted to know the name of the boy whom I am gonna fight".
"Fight?" "Is that so,why………I mean I haven't even mentioned fighting you in the letter" the boy said strangely.
Akane's mouth dropped. 'What the hell is this' she thought.
"You're not gonna fight me, so……what are you here for"?. She asked confused.
The girl asked so sweetly that 'he' said "Now I am unable to hold the suspense any longer so let me tell you who am I" he replied looking continously in her eyes.
"You remember 10 years back a boy gave you a pearl…………..". He wanted to say more but akane stopped him.
"Wait" she said "Are you Y..Yo..Yoshio?"
"Yes, you got it right, I am the same" he replied back calmly but lovingly.
Akane's eyes gleamed with happiness. She haven't expected HIM but it was all true. He was standing there in front of him strong and handsome…..after 10 long years.
They both were standing in front of each other, staring each other surprisingly yet affectionately, both lost in their old memories of childhood.
