Disclaimer: AHHH~ A bright sunny day... Am I that rich?

Dreams are not reality...
Dreams are darkness
that once pierced through..

Dreams are darkness
in a fake mask.

They're so comforting,
yet reality is not.

Nothing I care...
nothing I share,

Nothing I own,
Nothing I love...

Her once bright sapphire were dull and deep, she was just sitting beside the window, staring. Her long raven hair were no longer shining and sparkling, instead, it was downright untidy. Her face was filled with unseen pain, always struggling...

Struggling...
So much pain,
So much tears...

Where are my spirit?
Where are my determination?

Where am I?
Who I am?

"Kaoru!" a voice chirped, outside the door. The door creaked opened, revealing a girl of about 18, with long braided hair and sparkling jaded green eyes. In her hands were packet and packet of pills, and a goblet of water. Grinning like a Cheshire cat, she asked, "How are you today, Kaoru-chan?"

No words came out from her lips.

"Hmm... Well I see? Come on Kaoru, lets get you to bed shall we? You should take a rest y'know? It's not like you're made of metal, huh?" Misao laughed at her own joke, putting down the goblet and pills on the table, she grabbed Kaoru's hands. But a emotionless Kaoru pulled back her hand harshly, causing Misao to fall. Luckily, Kaoru caught her by her hand.

Misao stood up and scratched her head, still smiling. "At least you've reacted to me today, Kaoru-chan!" she said happily, clapping her hands. But her smiles soon died down. "Kaoru... what happened?" she enquired, eyeing the older. "I've been your nurse for 2 months and I can't get you to have faith in me... I can't... I don't know what to do... Kaoru..." The latter cry hard, tears threatening to fall.

"Gomen, Misao." a soft voice came, Misao jerked up her head, and looked at Kaoru. Her face was an exact replica of Aoshi Shinomori's, Totally emotionless.

"Kaoru?" Misao whispered, a questioning look in her eyes.

"Leave......" Kaoru looked out of the window, muttering some unnoticeable words under her breath. Misao just stood there, took the pills and goblet, and put it by her side.

"I would. Please, eat your medicine. I'll be here for you if you want to talk." Misao grinned and skipped off, her face fill with joy.

Her dull ocean eyes fixed right on the pills that was lying afar. A trembling hand reached out for the packet, but it was jerked back as usual. She clutched her chest, tears shed unwillingly out of her eyes, yet no sound came out from her mouth.

Where is my ray of light?
The light that once shines me through...

Through the darkness in the dark,
fireflies coming towards me...

The lake was a sparkling blue,
the night was young...

The dawn shining towards me.

My ray of light...

"You've promised to come back for me... I am waiting..."

Then my teacher's voice interrupted my train of thoughts by saying, "You've promised to hand in your homework my today, I am waiting, (insert friend's name)!" Ta ta! This is my origin of the ficlet.
