Chihiro clicked her pen as she stared blankly out the window of her classroom. A clean quiz sheet sat on her desk, unmarked by penned answers.
"Finish your sentence and pass your quiz forward." The teacher announced.
"Chihiro, Chihiro," Chihiro snapped out of her reverie by a tap on the back. "Pass your test forward."
"Oh, thanks." Chihiro handed her blank sheet to the person in front of her.
"That's it for today, class, you're dismissed." The students stood, shuffling their seats and gathering their books. Chihiro slowly put her books together and followed the crowd out the door.
"Chihiro," the teacher motioned Chihiro over. Chihiro walked over to the desk and stood before the teacher. She held Chihiro's blank test in front of her. Chihiro stared at her feet. The teacher sighed heavily.
"Chihiro, I know you can do better than this. You need to pay attention. Maybe you need to study more, have a tutor, something, but you need a C at least for me to pass you in this class. Do you understand?" Chihiro nodded. The teacher took a red marker and marked the test with a zero. "I need your parents to sign this so they know you're failing." Chihiro nodded again, took the test, bowed, and left.

"Mom, dad, I'm home!" Chihiro yelled as she slung her backpack from her shoulder to the floor.
"Chihiro, we need to talk to you. We're in the living room." Chihiro's shoulders slumped as she shuffled into the room. Her mom and dad were on the couch looking very serious. Chihiro cringed. this couldn't be good.
"Chihiro, we just got a call form your teacher." Her mother stated. "She says you're failing almost all your classes." Her mother sighed. "Chihiro, we're all worried about you. You don't pay any attention to your studies, you barely ever talk to anyone, or us in fact. Chihiro, ever since we've moved you've been so distant. Is there something wrong?" Chihiro smiled weakly.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I'm going upstairs, good night Mom, Dad." She said as she kissed both of them on the cheek.
"Goodnight" her parents said in unison. Chihiro walked up to her room and shut the door behind her. She changed into her pajamas and fell onto her bed and moaned. She rolled over and gazed at the ceiling.
"I'm Chihiro. The girl who's only friends and love might not exist." She cuddled her blankets. "If I could just see them one more time. Lin, Kamaji, No Face, Granny, heck, even Yubaba! But even more I miss Haku…" She closed her eyes. "Haku…" She repeated as she was whisked off into the land of dreams.
She felt herself falling, helplessly into darkness, till suddenly a hand clasped onto hers, then her other hand. Tears slipped from her eyes but flew upward instead of dropping down.
"I knew you were good…" She whispered in her sleep. Unknown to her, watchful eyes guarded her dreams…
