Tears splashed on the soft ground. She brushed her soft auburn hair away from her swollen eyes and cried, "Why does it have to happen this way??? Everything is gone! Everyone I love is gone! Why?? Why!" She threw a rock into the deep blue sea. She was crying. She felt like getting away from this place. A place that she had lived in for 14 years and where she had fun, laughter, plus tears. She hated reality; she hated everything about this world. To her its like there's no point on living this life.
She threw another rock into the open sea. Her long auburn tresses flew to the wind and the sun started to set upon the horizon. She had lost all hope. Her mother just died a few weeks ago from Leukemia. It bought grief over their tiny island. But not that much grief that gave to her.
She was all alone in that world. No one understands her. No one. Everyone's gone, she thought. Even Sora. The thought of him made her glum and again tears slid down her face.
She heard footsteps behind her. Her head tilted towards the sound of the footsteps and saw Akira. Akira is a new girl in their island who moved a few months ago.
"Are you alright?"
Akira crouched and patted her on the back.
"Yeah, I'm fine."
She said wiping her tears away.
"Look, Kairi. We all know your going on a tough time right now, but you must understand that there are still people where who cares about you."
Akira said in a comforting smile.
"No, you don't understand! Nobody understands! Everyone is gone. Everyone I loved! And to me they don't care! They don't care at all!"
Kairi shouted and tears ran down her cheeks.
"Look at me, Kairi. You get through this; it's just a small stage of grief. Everyone goes through this. Even me."
Akira said with a warming smile. Kairi looked at her. But still, tears ran through her round eyes. She was still sad. Akira looked at her and saw something different.
"Kairi? What's wrong with your eyes?" She asked.
"What? What do you mean?" Kairi replied.
"Your pupils are shrinking and your iris is turning yellow."
Akira said pointing at Kairi's eyes.
"Oh! It's nothing. It must be because of all the crying I have done." She muttered and wiped her wet tears away.
"Oh, okay. I'm going go now, I'm hungry." Akira stood up massaging her lurching stomach.
"Want to come?" She said.
"No, I'll stay for a while, I want to see the stars. Sometimes the stars help me stop crying." Kairi replied with a small smile.
"Okay, see you late then." Akira walked off into the island.
Walking on the pavement she turned back and saw Kairi. Kairi was looking up to the darken sky and watched as the small stars glistened. Akira sighed and muttered, "Please, Kairi. Don't surrender yourself to the darkness!" She turned and walked home, hoping that it will not happen what she thinks will happen.
