Deep Inside of You
By Miyamoto Yui
Chapter 24 – Niji. (Rainbow.)
I closed my eyes and yawned. But my eyes were already alert to what was happening.
For a moment, the Earth was lulled.
Had it really stopped raining?
I looked outside of my window, but it was still a little dark outside.
I smiled as I looked at the letter she had given me after I turned on the light.
Nothing I could do now. My body was so used to waking up early that even if I tried to sleep in, it would be of no use to me.
So, I just got a pen and paper.
"I'll just write to her." I reasoned to myself.
I laughed to myself.
"While my writing is still legible…" I trailed off.
The last time, I was a bit drunk with the others.
Lifting my pen, I wrote,
"Dear Miss Yuzuriha Nekoi,
How are you? I hope that you are doing well."
Crumble.
"That's no good."
I didn't seem the type, but I was one of those that had to say the 'right thing'. The most polite thing.
It was a reflex I always had since childhood…
"You're so weird," one classmate had teased me when I was little. "Always talking about the earth."
"Don't you care?" I asked innocently.
Another boy, in high school, said, "You think your special or something? Well, we think you're special all right."
The boys shook their heads as they laughed. "Talking to all the animals at the zoo while we're on a field trip? You're so strange."
"Too bad you don't talk to humans. You know? The things that _can_ talk back?" someone else chimed in.
Without malice, I just answered back, ""Just because some things speak a different language, does that mean that they shouldn't be understood?"
"Why can't you give a bit more effort in trying to become friends with your classmates?" my English teacher had asked me. She patted my back. "I used to be like that, but now, I've gotten over my fear of being shy."
Either people liked me or not.
I had always been gentle and courteous though I was not shown that same type of treatment sometimes. I couldn't help how I looked like.
No one can.
It didn't bother me at all though.
Deep inside, strangely, I was not insecure about it. I was just truly shy that way.
So, I found myself speaking to animals and other living things much easier than to humans.
But I never deemed myself special because I could feel more than some people.
If they had listened to the Earth's cries, then they would know how I felt for our world.
They just refuse to see the reality of their destruction.
That's why I joined this force.
We fight a common cause.
And Miss…
She understands me and what I do.
I smiled to myself thinking of that English teacher. She was so kind to me.
She looked her.
Miss Nekoi, I mean.
But…
How could I say 'how are you' when I knew what was happening to all of us involved in the end of the world?
I won't be able to just watch everything and everyone at one point.
What will I do?
Whatever is necessary.
As always.
It's not the side I am on, it's what I believe in.
I looked over at the next piece of paper in front of me and began to write again.
"Dear Miss Yuzuriha Nekoi,
I'm sorry that I couldn't come. I wish I had tried your cookies. I'm sure that they came out deliciously.
Right now, I am…"
Then, I wrote and wrote about the new project I had been assigned to.
The dawn was approaching and I stopped writing to look out my window.
I nodded to myself knowing what I would write lastly.
"…and I hope you were able to see it today. After all the rain, there was a rainbow.
They said that in the Bible, God made a promise never to destroy the Earth again.
But does that count for humans also? Do we count in this promise? I do not know.
They say we are made in God's image, but I know no answer to these propositions that people keep on coming up with. As if it were a campaign without support.
Humans go about talking without really doing anything to save what's in front of them. Only some care. But will that be enough for Earth? Again, I don't know.
Sorry, I did not mean to depress you. So, I will give you a flower. Strangely, I found it not in the forest, but while I was shopping yesterday. I'm not one to give roses, but I found a purple one just for you.
It's said that when someone had tried to make a field of blue, it instead made purple roses. It was something more beautiful than was originally intended.
Maybe that's how life really is.
Kusanagi Shiyuu
PS. I hope you saw the rainbow today. It's very beautiful from where I'm sitting."

We're almost done. I hope I captured him all right. I'm used to paranormal stuff, but not talking with the earth. ^^;;; Honest!
(Yea! My fifth fanfic for today!)
