~~~~~~~~ Meteor 6: The Unblossom Rose ~~~~~~~~

*** Late at night...

After Shizuka had a shower, she laid on her bed as she thinks about the mystery person Rui. He seems to be so mysterious and indescribable feeling evoked.

On the other hand, Rui sat down, thinking about Shizuka. He pondered: Why does her laughter seem so alike to Tsukushi? Why did I agree to go to the Dance, just because I heard the word "moonlight"?

Rui walked towards the cupboard and took out the smiley kite. It's been 12 years and he's still keeping it. While holding on to it, he fell asleep, in deep slumber.

*** The Next Day

Tsukasa: Hey Shizuka, over here!

Shizuka heard Tsukasa's voice and walk towards him, many whispers and gasps could be heard from the people. All of them had been wondering why Tsukasa is on good terms with the famous pianist, Shizuka.

Shizuka (happily): Hi guys!

Soujirou: Wow, you are in good mood, do you?

Shizuka: Ya, absolutely. I've been invited to the MOONLIGHT Dance Competition which is tomorrow, to perform a Mozart piece. Shouldn't I be happy about it?

Akira: Awww. I was thinking about asking you to be my date, seems now I had to go there without a date and no chatting.

Tsukasa: Akira, I guess you must be feeling terrible for not able to talk to girls, right?

Soujirou: HAHAHA.I guess the girls there will be waiting for me.

Shizuka turned her head towards Rui, who had been sitting there silently: Rui, who's your date?

Rui replied: Nobody.

Shizuka seem rather surprised by his answer and kept quiet for a moment.

Tsukasa: He seldom goes to parties like this, so I guess, he's there to watch.

Shizuka: What about you, Tsukasa?

Tsukasa raised his eyebrows and blushes, while Soujirou and Akira laugh, should be laughing over their heads.

Tsukasa: Hey, What's there to laugh about? I don't need a dance partner.There will be plenty of girls flaunting their beauty and fighting for me. why should I worry?

This time round, Soujirou and Akira laughed even louder.

*** Shizuka: okay, sure, I'll be there early this Saturday.Bye.

Shizuka finished her conversation and was walking towards the carpark when she heard a melodious tune being played. " It's a violin!", she happily exclaimed. As she walk, searching for the place where the violin is played. She is more interested to whom it is to play violin in the afternoon, it seems to be a sad piece. Finally, she saw him. Huh?Akira??

Shizuka walked over to him and looked up to him as an admirable person : Wow, you know how to play the violin? That's fantastic.

Akira giggles and replied: Hahaha.Shizuka , you think too highly of me. It wasn't me who is playing. It's this.

Akira pointed to the CD player on the bench behind him.

Shizuka: "Oh. looks like your image as a noble violinist is destroyed in my eyes." , she said jokingly.

Akira: it's all right, but there's someone who definitely fits your image as a noble violinist.

Shizuka: Really? Who is it then?

Akira motioned his head to the direction where Rui was. He's standing in the middle of the garden, playing the violin. At once, the garden was filled with harmonious melody. Shizuka slowly closes her eyes as she feels the music flowing like a river in her mind.

Shizuka moved forward when Shizuka stop playing.

Shizuka: You are a great violinist.

Rui: Thanks.

Shizuka: Are you always so quiet?

Rui replied coldly: What do you want me to say then?

Shizuka replied casually: Well, I guess you are like a rose that never blossom in F4, but I truly believe sunshine will gradually make you blossom.

Rui listened but made no comment.

Despite his coldness to her, Shizuka still cheerfully sat down on the bench beside him.

Shizuka: It's a wonderful afternoon, to have the nature sound and lovely music. Thanks.

She left after saying as Ruiwatched her goes and silence filled the garden once again.
