Disclaimer: Hikaru No Go is not my work; but this story is my work; my idea =P

==========

Ahh... after one month of tremendous stressful days, I'm back!! Firstly, thanks to all who gave encouraging reviews, I really needed them. Have any of you really waited for the story? Hehe, I hope you did. Anyway, I've been having so many headaches when my examination was going on and finally today's the last day of exams and hopefully, for my headaches too. The next worry will be my exams' results. I hope I can get good grades : / But for now, it's time for the story...

My Heart Within

III. What's wrong?

----

Perhaps this is just my imagination, perhaps it is only hallucination.

Whatever it is I only hope, that it will soon, finally stop......

----

Days passed like they had always been, while I live my life like I always do. There wasn't much happenings these few days, and I don't want any too. But this morning, I had woke up with a bizarre feeling, I hope nothing serious' going to happen, for my feelings always mean something.

I flipped my planner to today's page, 5 of May, it's Sunday, and mum and dad were both at home. There was nothing written on the page so I just closed it and went for breakfast. Mum's busy cooking in the kitchen whilst dad's up in the Study as usual

"Akari, can you get me something at the grocery after you had had your meal?" I nodded my head. "Just some, wait a moment," she went through her shopping list and continued, "Ahh, a packet of chocolate chips and some flour."

"Mum, you're making cakes?"

"Yep, it's been a long time since I last made one, well, are you not in favour of it?" she asked jokingly.

"Of course not! I think it's a great idea!" I exclaimed.

"That's good." Mum's cakes always tastes brilliant even if it's her 'experimental piece'.

Upon finishing my food, I decided to visit the park. "Mum, I'm going out for a walk, will be back in about half hour."

"Alright."

I took some money and left for the park. It's a rare chance that there's nothing to do on a Sunday, but I know I do have something in mind. I had been feeling tense since I woke up, that bizarre feeling really meant something and I'm afraid something would happen. Thinking that the park could solve my problem, I decided that's it's the best destination.

The park has become my favourite site probably because of its beautiful scenery. The serenity of the place strongly attracted me; it might be the best thinking area, as no other place could have provided me with any better conditions.

I strolled round the park, trying to calm and relax myself from the unpleasant idea. Finally sitting down, I closed my eyes, listening to the sound of peacefulness...

On my way back home from the grocery, I noticed a familiar figure—tall, with blond cool bangs as his fringe and carrying a haversack. Hikaru? He was only on the opposite track from me, but my intuition told me not to call him. His eyes were focused with a frown on a book which he was holding, and he looked sort of nervous and serious. I wondered where he's going to, as I watched his diminishing figure as he walked on.

That evening, even though mum's cakes were really delicious, they couldn't keep me from thinking too much. Thoughts flooded my mind even though I tried to get rid of them. They were so disturbing, and making my head ached so much. The hindering feeling kept coming back --- despite my efforts of concentrating on other things --- as if telling me that something bad was really going on. Thoughts on Hikaru filled my mind at the same time. Since he walked away, I had been feeling that I should have called out to him. His frown showed that he was in some kind of trouble, and I should've helped him. But would I really be able to?

I couldn't sleep well that night, tossing about in bed, I finally fell into a restless sleep...

==

The following morning, I couldn't get up, I was feeling feverish, and after minutes of struggling, I managed to force myself out of the bed. Mum noticed my pale face eventually, despite the fact that I tried to hide it from her. "Akari, are you all right?"

"Yeah, I'm okay. Why?" I acted as though I didn't realise that I was feeling sick.

"You don't looked so good." She said as she touched my forehead, "You're having a slight fever. How about not going to school today and have a good rest at home? I think I'd better get the day off too..."

"No, mum, I'm all right, you go on with your work. I'm really okay."

She shook her head, looking concerned, "I'll ask your dad to drive you to school, I'll stay at home and wait for you after school. Be back early for lunch okay?" She smiled.

==

It wasn't good in school, I tried to concentrate on the lessons but nothing could get into my brain. Everything was in a blurred vision. Staggering home, I caught my breath before entering the house. "I'm back."

"Akari, come over here and have your lunch." She felt my forehead for a second time that day. "And have a good sleep after this, and have this medicine." She handled me two pills and walked off.

The two pills and the long sleep were refreshing. Even though I woke up drowsily, but the fever had subsided and I wasn't feeling sickly.

Mum was listening to the phone. Usually, I don't listen to what she was talking about, but a word caught my attention and I continued to listen intently.

"... Hikaru behaved strangely yesterday?" There was a slight pause while the other side spoke. "You meant he went out and come home a few trips searching for something and not telling you what it is. Well, it's not weird..."

I did not carry on listening to the rest. What matters most was that Hikaru was behaving strangely yesterday. Had my feelings been about that; that the frown on his face when I saw him, had actually symbolised that he was in trouble? It could be, for my feelings are always true and I couldn't find any reasons other than this. But this is just too much of a coincidence. Or... is it not?

Hikaru, if this is true, does it meant that I could sense your feelings; could feel what you are feeling? Perhaps. Perhaps my feelings for you had grown strong. Now that I know you're in some kind of trouble, will you let me help you? I'll share your problems, and you won't have to bare them all alone. I- I wished that from this day onwards, I could reach towards you... and understand you......

Again, how's this chapter? I think I'll be able to increase my speed of update now, because I'll be having three weeks of school holiday after the next week. But I might also not update for a long time. However, I know you guys will know what to do if you want to read the following chapter soon right? hint hint hehe, joking, what I want to say is that I'm going to edit all my other stories and finish this story before I update the next chapter because I think that story is not flowing and this chapter sounds bad too. Furthermore, I've got other fics which I have not update for a long time. So I guessed from now onwards I'll write out the whole story first (and when I say 'write', I meant it) then slowly update them. And I've got so many ideas for other stories I can't wait to start writing them. Anyway, that's all this time. Hope to receive comments from ya. See you then!

P/S: Please review my second fic too: Valentine Love, 'cause there were so little reviews -sob- and I really hope to receive more for that story because I'd personally think that it's the best story I've written so far.
