Chapter 2: Memories
After class, all went home immediately. Kou was walking by the sidewalk, his 'bodyguard' was suppose to pick her up. But Kou didn't want to show- off, she was rich- filthy rich.
Anyway, her house, I mean mansion was just around 2 or 3 blocks away. She dragged her tired body. She arrived at a highly secured gate, with 2 guards guarding it.
"Kou-sama! What are you doing walking?!" one of the guards asked, getting her heavy bag for her as the other called for the limousine just inside.
"Doumo, no need to call the limo, I'll just walk to the house" Kou smiled
"Demo, Kou-sama."
"For God's sake, it's only behind the gate!" her voice rising in anger
The guards stood stiffly as respecting their young master..
"Gomen ne, I had a hard day at school, suminasen" Kou went inside, leaving the two guards puzzled and worried.
"Kou-sama! Okeari!" the butler greeted
"Konnichiwa" she greeted with a smile "if you mind, I don't want any disturbance while I'm sleeping upstairs" Kou immediately walked sluggishly upstairs
She laid in her big bed, the soft cushion bounced as Kou heavily fell on he bed. She sighed heavily, as looking at the white ceiling. She hugged a certain teddy bear, sitting on her bed, a small brown bear with a heart in the center. She hugged it tight, soon her heavy eyes fell.
"Ru-chan! Ru-chan!" a small voice called "Ru-chan!" the girl started to worry
"Kou-chan! Where are you?!" another kid's voice called back
Two kids, a girl and a boy, age of 8 were playing hide and seek in a small forest. Unfortunately, they lost each other and couldn't find their way back.
"Ru-chan, where are you? I'm scared" the girl repeated, a tears fell from her childish eyes, she sobbed as sitting on the soft grass
"Kou-chan!" the boy finally found the girl, his smile faded as seeing his friend crying "Kou-chan, don't cry, I'm here" the raven black-hair boy bent down next to her, embracing her comfortably.
"Ru-chan! I was so scared" she continued to sob, embracing back her friend
"Daijobu, I'm here. I'm always here for you" the boy smiled, helping her to her feet
"Ru-chan." the girl looked at her friend, wiping her tears away "Promise you won't leave me?" she asked
The boy nodded, his warm blue eyes reflecting on the girl's brown crystal ones. They were best of friends, neighbors as well. Both lived by the abundant part of the country, tall trees and wild plants were around. Both are also rich, they were best friends since. well, since they could remember.
"We're best friends remember? Why would I leave you?" the boy laughed as putting his small arm around the girl's neck
"Just asking" the girl replied with a smile
~
"Naze?! Naze?! Why now?!" the raven black-hair boy shouted
"Gomenasai Kaede, me and your father decided to transfer to Kanagawa" his mother bowed her head in sorrow
"Demo, what about Kou-chan?!" he shouted again
"You. you have to leave her" she said
"You can't separate us! We're best friends! Naze?! Why are you doing this okasan?!" he shouted louder, tears flow freely
"That's enough! We are transferring to Kanagawa and that is final!" his father shouted back
Rukawa's fist clinched, his tears couldn't stop flowing, his heart full of hatred. He ran out of their mansion, Rukawa ran until the far end of the forest. A big Sakura tree stood, pink petals slowly fell, it was Rukawa and Kou's favorite spot, they stayed their when they were lonely or mad.
"Ru-chan. what's the matter?" Kou suddenly appeared
Rukawa couldn't say anything, he bowed his head, still tears fell. How could he say it in front of her?
"Kou-chan. watashi." Rukawa started "Watashi."
"Hai?" Kou listen carefully as sitting next to him
Suddenly, Rukawa hugged Kou with all his might, sibbing in her comforting shoulders.
"There, there, what's the matter now Ru-chan?" she asked again, patting his head
"I don't wanna be separated from you!" his words trembling as he cried harder
"We won't, you promise remember?" Kou smiled
~
"Bakeru! You promised me!!!" Kou slapped Rukawa's face
"Kou.Kou-chan..," Rukawa felt his red cheeks, he watched Kou cried
"Gomen ne." he apologized, he couldn't watch his best friend cry, she always cried, but it was different this time
Kou ran away from him, Rukawa shouted her name as running after her, but Kou was now lost in the forest. It was the day Rukawa and his family moved to Kanagawa, Kou of course couldn't take the news. She went to the Sakura tree again, tucked her feet and cried.
The next day, Rukawa was gone, his big room deserted and so was the whole house. Kou locked herself in her room for a month, she cried through the night. Couldn't take the news that her best friend, the one person that comforted her was gone.
"Nani." Kou's attention was caught by something furry and brown hidden under her pillow
She gently grabbed it, it was a small teddy bear, with a red heart on its stomach and a letter, hanging from the heart.
Dear Kou-chan,
I guess we're leaving. I know I promised you I won't leave you, demo it was my parent's fault. I hope you understand. ne, I got that teddy bear you wanted so much! Ch, it was so hard to find. I hope you like it! And I hope you won't forget me, best friends to the end! I hope I'll see you again. aishiteru.
Rukawa
After reading the letter, Kou hugged the fluffy teddy bear, it had Rukawa's warmth, but no one could replace him.
* End of Dream *
"Gasp!" Kou suddenly woke up, she looked around, she was in her room.
"Ru-chan, was that you?" Kou asked herself, remembering her classmate, the raven-black hair boy.
She looked at the fluffy teddy bear, stared at it and saw a small boy, smiling, his short raven-black hair, his pale white skin and that comforting arms of his. He looked so different from the Rukawa she saw. Was it really him?
