"You don't know me?" Haruka asked, controlling her voice.

"Well…um…" she narrowed her gray eyes, "actually I do know you…a long time ago." Haruka looked at her watery eyes. Drunk, obviously, She thought.

"It's really stuffy in here," Haruka said, "Come outside."

"First you have to tell me who you are?" she said in a singsong voice, waving her finger in front of Haruka's eyes. Then she giggled.

"Haruka," Haruka replied.

"Haru…ka…" she stuttered, her eyes went wide. She stared at her for a moment and then squealed and hugged her.

"Oh, Haruka! You came back! I thought you would never come back!"

"Let's go outside, Valy," Haruka said, "It's too crowded here."

"No!" Valy said, "Let's dance!" She grabbed Haruka's sleeves and pulled her to the dance floor.

"Valy!" Haruka said, "You have my key, I need my key." But she just kept on dancing.

Hell! She dances good…like a girl… Haruka finally gave in and danced. She let the music guide her. Valy was laughing.

"I am glad you came back Haruka!" she said over the music, "So much happened, I have to tell you all about it!" She grabbed Haruka's shirt and suddenly she wasn't laughing anymore. She was crying.

"Valy let's go outside," Haruka said. Valy nodded. Haruka took her outside. The stars were scattered all across the sky. Valy was wiping her tears.

"You want to go home?" Valy nodded again.

"I have my own car now," Haruka said, "A Ferrari 512 M." (That's Haruka's favorite car also.)

"Really?" Valy smiled, more sobered, "Can I see it?"

"Sure," Haruka took her to the car. The car, silvery in the moonlight, looked beautiful just like it always did to Haruka.

"It's beautiful Haruka!" Valy said as she sat in.

"Glad you feel the same," Haruka said. She started the engine and drove to the building she had seen earlier. Valy was looking everywhere but at her. When they reached the building Haruka stopped the engine but didn't get out.

"Why did you come back, Haruka?" she asked quietly.

"Things happen," Haruka replied, "You?"

"Things do happen," she replied.

"Why did you stop writing?"

"You never replied,"

"You know I still read your letters."

"It wasn't the same." Valy looked at her, "You did write once though. Told me about this girl."

"Uh…" Haruka looked at the rear-view mirror, "So, where's Tina now?"

"Don't change the subject, Haruka," Valy said.

"You didn't answer my question," Haruka replied.

"I asked you first," Valy said stubbornly.

"No, you never asked a question." Valy stared as Haruka said that.

"You changed." Valy said.

"At least I look the same."

"I couldn't act like a guy forever. I am a girl."

"What am I then?"

"You were my best friend. Who are you now?"

"I am Haruka." Haruka looked at Valy, returning her stare.

"Come on, Haruka," she said, "if you really need your key, I have it up in my apartment." They left the car. Haruka entered the old building. It felt like she had gone back in time. How many a time had she and Valy gone through this corridor together. The only difference was that back then they were best friends and now they were strangers. They entered the elevators and stood there in silence. They knew each other, but still didn't know each other at all.

"If I wasn't here, how would have you gotten your key?"

"Janie-chan has a spare key to your apartment, remember?"

"Did you go see Janie-chan?" she put her key into her apartment door. The door opened with a creak, showing that it was used a lot. Valy moved aside to let Haruka in.

"Yes, as a matter of fact, I did see her."

"That's how you found me." Valy smiled, "So Haruka, you still want to be a race-car driver?"

"It was only a dream."

"Dreams come true."

"Not this one." Haruka sat down on the sofa. On the side table there were picture frames. One was Valy at two with her parents on each of her side. The other was Valy and Haruka, when they were thirteen. Both girls had the same hairstyle and same exact clothes on. It was taken on Twin Day at school. The last one was Valy's most recent picture probably. She was wearing a lavender sweater and a white skirt. Beside her stood a guy with red hair and green eyes. He was wearing a jeans shirt and jacket on top of a blue T-shirt. Haruka picked the picture up.

"That's Tina and me," Valy explained. Haruka looked at her with her eyes wide open.

"Yeah, I know," Valy smiled, "She looks a lot like you. She didn't want to be a girl; she just wanted to be a guy. She was the only child and her family owned a barn. Working there made her a guy, basically. She was really lively and all. Always making me smile."

"Was?" Haruka asked, scared to hear the answer.

"That's the reason I came back," Valy looked at Haruka, tears in her eyes, "She was killed a week ago."
