Chapter 13

Concert Band

I always thinking this past week, since the re – audition have been decided Reina will do the solo part, I'm happy to her, but today I should tell to her, I don't have the time to say to her yesterday, I hope she understand it. And if she doesn't, I don't know if I ever face her if she saw my face, Please let her understand it. I know that saying this to her make even worst that I expected.

Isabella see you at the audition, where going to watch your competition this time.

Isabella Sorry for what we did before, and we said when we're about to graduate.

Guys, it's okay now, do you think what you say to me before, maybe it's true, I've been selfish since then, and didn't hear anymore, I know that you guys said those word because that's what you want to say from the beginning, the past is pass.

Isabella, Thank you.

Isabella We promise to watch your competition.

Thank you.

We have to go now. See you at the Italy.

See you guys.

While at the car

I play on my phone Mayday Parade

Terrible Things

By the time I was your age I'd give anything to fall in love truly
was all I could think,
that's when I met your mother
the girl of my dreams,
the most beautiful woman that I'd ever seen.
She said boy can I tell you a wonderful thing?
"I can't help but notice you staring at me,
I know I shouldn't say this, but I really believe,
I can tell by your eyes that you're in love with me."
Now son, I'm only telling you this because life can do terrible things.

Now most of the time we'd have too much to drink
and we'd laugh at the stars and share everything.
Too young to notice and too dumb to care,
love was a story that couldn't compare.
I said girl can I tell you a wonderful thing?
"I made you a present with paper and string,
open with care now, I'm asking you please,
you know that I love you,
will you marry me?"

Now son I'm only telling you this because life can do terrible things
you'll learn one day, and I'll hope and I'll pray that God shows you differently.

She said boy can I tell you a terrible thing?
"It seems that I'm sick and I've only got weeks.
Please don't be sad now, I really believe,
you were the greatest thing that ever happened to me."

Slow, so slow, I fell to the ground on my knees.

So don't fall in love there's just too much to lose
if you're given the choice, I'm begging you choose to walk away, walk away,
don't let her get you, I can't bare to see the same happen to you.

Now son, I'm only telling you this, because life can do terrible things.

At the hospital

She also want to go to national

Kumiko, It's better to say tell to her.

Kumiko, when we see her, the day when she know about you, she's mad, really mad.

Your right? I have to tell her.

At the club

Miss Oumae..

What are doing here Sara?

I overslept…

What? Then, who drove you here?

Your sister drop me here.

Seriously, Sara. That's rare for you to oversleep.

So, just want to hear your band.

But, Maybe I will stick to you today?

How about your class?

Because someone wants to know more about your condition, this month..

I know.

Once the summer break had started.

You guys practiced from early morning to sunset.

Yet, as long as it was, everyone felt as though the time were too short.

And it happened suddenly

It's time. Miss Oumae, and please take care of your health

How do you know?

I'm not stupid.

I will stay here, and will be back home, after your practice.

I've never seen Kumiko, that serious before, maybe it's my imagination, Sara its nothing to do with you.

Sara…

I know… I'll go outside..

Playing instrument ….

Can we get the eups to play that part, as well?

Where?

Measure 162. In unison with the contrabass.

Can you do it, Oumae chan?

Y-yes. "I've been thinking about how I tell to Reina".

Here, Kumiko chan

"Why the other been not to their self, Tanaka senpai been calling Kumiko Oumae chan and Kawashima san also call Kumiko with chan"? You must been thinking too much Reina?

Thanks.

See you Miss Oumae

See you, Sara

Reina, can we talk

What do you want to talk about?

I said to you, yesterday.

Sure.

Thanks.

I know this is all of sudden, I will said this to you because your also my friend Reina.

Reina, I have a competition. The same date Kitauji High School band compete to Kansai… So I can't go, I've been preparing this competition, although I rejected it before, but this time for sure. I have to do it.

I know I say I will stay by your side, I'm sorry, saying some reckless decision, Reina

Then, don't go to the competition… Kumiko, Don't go.. Please..

Reina, I'm sorry, but this competition is more important to me, Like I said, I've been practicing my piece this upcoming competition, before I join the Kitauji High School band..

LIAR! YOU SAID YOU WILL STAY BY MY SIDE, BUT WHY!? I HATE YOU, I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR FACE.. I DON'T WANT TO HERE ANY EXCUSE OR HERE YOUR VOICE SO, JUST BE GONE!

Reina, why you're angry!. Why are you mad!, first of all you're not my boyfriend or girlfriend to get angry to!?.. This is bad, I should more careful, or else I will collapse.. I feel the pain of my heart again.. Any moment, I will..

"Kumiko why she's holding her chase? Is she okay, did I say too much"...?

Fine, I'll be going now, if you don't want to listen to what I say I have to go now...

This is really bad...

"Why she seems she's looking something on her pocket".

Reina, I'm sorry, if you really don't want to see this face, hearing my voice... Then I will not going to talk to you anymore…

She's been holding her chase.

Kumiko, Are you okay.

Yes, I just need my medicine today…

We have to go to infirmary…

Thanks, Hazuki.

It's everything alright?

It seems kumiko chan been holding her chase.

Oumae chan, you have to take care..

Thank you, Asuka senpai.

Infirmary

Kumiko chan are you okay.

I'm Okay now.

Here's you're, medicine. Did I get it right Kumiko?

Yes, thanks, Hazuki and thank you guys for everything.

Kumiko, how is it? You talk to her right?

Yes, I talk to her, Reina said, she doesn't want to hear me, or seeing my face..

Why she's mad, she's not your girlfriend at all,

Midori is right? Why she's mad, and angry with you if she's not your lover.

The next day

I keep participating the band at the same time I always practicing my piano lesson

And Reina, didn't talk to me. Anymore…

We keep talking, but not the same anymore

Next day

Kousaka san, morning, you're early.

Good morning.

It that Oumae san?

Yes

She was having a hard time in ensemble…

If only Asuka could teach her better.

I-I've been wanting to say something.

What?

I'm sorry for being smug at the audition.

Me, too… Sorry for dragging you into it.

Kaori senpai..

Look at you, turning red by yourself

Wh-why are you even here?!

Nakagawa senpai… Did you know about Kumiko, going back to Italy?

Oh you mean her competition, Yes I know, and I know how important this to her. This will also her last chance…

What do mean?

Ehhh… You've never know…

This will be her last practice today…

What!?

This is her last practice..

Yup, because today she need to practice. And she need to concentrate her piano lesson..

The competition is in ten days

Please diligently practice the part you need to work on.

Yes.

Time past….

Tenor, baritone, eup, this part is important.

Yes.

From 7 bars prior. Baritone, play this part more clearly.

Yes.

Accent the beginning of the snare roll.

I've said it before, the horns should sound impressive in this piece.

Do you understand?

Trombone, Tsukamoto Kun…

Yes.

Make sure you can play that part every time..

Let's begin.

Measure 158.

Okay, stop.

Trumpets, end your notes clearly.

Yes.

Horns, more, please.

Yes

And eups, I'd like Tanaka san to play this part alone.

"Did sensei know about Kumiko leaving the club"…

Tanaka san did you hear me?

Yes.

Once more.

Pay attention to what I just told you.

Miss Oumae san, need have something to say to all of you, Oumae san

I have piano competition same date as our Kansai competition..

This would be my last chance to play to this upcoming Premio Pianistico Internazionale "La Palma d'oro" in short "La Palma d'oro" International Piano Competition "The Golden Palm"

I've been practicing every day and also today is my last practice. That's why I'm here in front of you once again. Thank you for everything up until now…

That's all. Thanks

As you heard Miss Oumae will no longer staying at the concert band, just this month. And will coming back.. Right miss Oumae

Yes.

Good luck…

Kumiko?

Midori really wants to go out to eat.

Let's go!

Okay

Few minutes pass

Reina?

Kumiko.

Please, Can we talk?

Reina!

I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR FACE. I DON'T WANT TO HERE ANY EXCUSE OR HERE YOUR VOICE SO, JUST BE GONE!

It's that really want you want. I have to go now

Where is her butler why his not here?

Miss Kousaka, have you seen Miss Kumiko…

She run that way…

I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR FACE.. I DON'T WANT TO HERE ANY EXCUSE OR HERE YOUR VOICE SO, JUST BE GONE! Really, why she said it. Whatever maybe it's the best, at least this will my sad goodbye,

Miss Kousaka "Letting go of the person you love is the most awful feeling you can ever receive. Letting go can mean, finally realizing you're strong enough to let go of the one you love and move on, or it can mean letting go of your love and hoping that fate will bring you back together again, wishing if you're meant to be".

I don't love her anymore Mister William?

Is that so, thank you for letting her go..

Huh!

Nothing.

Why his saying random quotes…

"I have reached a point in life where I feel it is no longer necessary to try and impress anyone. If they like me the way I am, good and if they don't, it's their loss."

"Don't be embarrassed by who you are. They're going to judge you no matter what you do."

Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by dragging day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways.

"Stop worrying about someone that isn't worried about you".

It always repeating of what Reina told me I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR FACE.. I DON'T WANT TO HERE ANY EXCUSE OR HERE YOUR VOICE SO, JUST BE GONE!

I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR FACE.. I DON'T WANT TO HERE ANY EXCUSE OR HERE YOUR VOICE SO, JUST BE GONE!

I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR FACE.. I DON'T WANT TO HERE ANY EXCUSE OR HERE YOUR VOICE SO, JUST BE GONE!

I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR FACE.. I DON'T WANT TO HERE ANY EXCUSE OR HERE YOUR VOICE SO, JUST BE GONE!

I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR FACE.. I DON'T WANT TO HERE ANY EXCUSE OR HERE YOUR VOICE SO, JUST BE GONE!

I guess this has nothing to do with me, but why? Why she's angry knowing that she doesn't love me... She's always been the one who said she love me, hahahahaa I see she's just playing my feeling. Then, goodbye, goodbye Kousaka Reina… When I wake up I'll be gone just like you say…

YOU WILL NO LONGER HEARING MY VOICE, SEEING MY FACE, AND YOU WILL NEVER HEAR ANY EXCUSE… YOU SAY GIVE YOU SECOND CHANCE, BUT I MADE A MISTAKE… FOR GIVING YOU ANOTHER CHANCE…

KUMIKO!

BAMMMM! Crash bang

MISS KUMIKO!

Till next time
