Chapter 4: The Festival
"We can't tell her the secret."
"Of course not. But she can help."
"What?"
"She can help hold in my anger. She has something about her. Just like someone I know..."
"You mean like Rin?"
"Rin is family and I can deal with that."
"You want an outsider to help?"
"It's the only choice."
She walked home that day staying in the dark. She was me and I was her. We shared the same life, the same failures, the same pain. But there was one difference that she didn't exist. She was a blur of imagination, of time.
"Misuru! Suzume is here!" her mother called. "Misuru?"
She continued to read passage by passage flipping through the dialogue. Whoever wrote this knew a great deal about her. Did she have a stalker? No, she couldn't have. That was the time when she couldn't speak the truth.
She was stuck in that little room with no air, the water flowing in her hands scratched with blood. The rope was tight and she was afraid. Insanity that's what it was...insanity...
"Misuru get going! We are going to be late!" Misuru closed the book.
"Where are we going Suzume?"
"To the festival of course!"

Continuing the struggle a mindless thought grew over. The light was dimmer and the anger arose. They didn't want him and yet suicide wasn't the answer...or was it? How that was his black side came to be? Was it really all the teasing about the ox or was it his own jealously? His mother would cry every night looking at photos from six years ago. Into the eyes of that little child in the picture bore fear. Fear of being accepted. As much as his mother wanted to hold him close, she couldn't

"Misuru lets go on that ride!"
"Huh? What ride?"
"The Bat of DOOM!" Suzume pointed. Misuru's face turned white.
"Nuh uh I'm not going on there!"
"Yes you are."
"No!" Suzume grabbed Misuru's hand.
"Weren't you coming here with Kei?"
"He bailed out. Has a band thing."
"I bet you shooed him away." Misuru said trying to make her let go of her arm.
"Actually no...He really said that."
Misuru got into the rollercoaster in dismay. She would always embarrass herself on rides like these. As the thing began to move she buckled up and held on for her life. Suzume was enjoying it but she didn't. The only thing she could think about is getting out of that thing ...ALIVE.

"You are so mean Hari!"
"Momiji you have to remember what your father said. No candy for a week."
"Not that I wanted to go on that ride."
Momiji pointed at the bat of DOOM. Hatori turned white and walked away holding his black coat in his arms. Momiji followed looking at all the rides and all the kids. It wasn't really that crowed until the end of the day when everyone else comes. Momiji saw someone with brown hair come off of one of the rides. It looked exactly like Misuru.

"Urn I think I'm going to barf..."Misuru held her stomach and dozily went up to her friend who was cheering.
"Lets' go on that again!" she screamed loudly.
"Oh...no..."

"Ms. Rin we have someone here to visit."
"Is it Kagura-chan? She is supposed to come here to pick me up."
"No Ms. Rin it isn't. It's some boy with white hair."
"Ha...Hatsuharu is here? To see me?"
Haru walks into the hospital infirmary and sees Rin sitting in one of the beds. She was little wasted looking but otherwise she looked fine. He moved near her side and gave her a gentile kiss upon her forehead. It made her shiver.
"Why are you here Haru? Did that bastard Akito make you come?" she said angrily.
"I just wanted to make sure you were...alright."
"Huh?" she said moving away. "Why are you acting like this? I told you that we are over."
"That isn't it. Stop being such a bitch." Haru said annoyed. Rin jumped back in her bed.
"I'm not being a bitch! It's not my fault I ended up in here! It's all Akito's fault...it's his entire fault!"
"I've realized that after what happened to Yuki. If you calm down I have something to tell you." He whispered something in her ear and she gasped.
"No...He...he wouldn't! Not that I care if it happens"
"It's the only chance and the curse will finally be broken." Haru said looking out the window. "And maybe we will finally live a normal life without being afraid. Rin you know this and yet you still are dense."
