Chapter 2….Similar pains'
Regular pov.
Chirp……Chirp…..
As the sun begun to woke, over the mountains, a light, chilly breeze came as the time strolled down now in December. Though in December, it has not yet snowed yet, which brought chatter to the community only except one person. This person was the kind of person who lived in only his mind. A person who was known as an icicle and a cold person. This person, of course, is the only … Aoshi Shinomori, himself.
Aoshi's pov.
The sun's beams, struck my face as I am climbing towards my little cave, known as the temple. To me, it seems like Déjà vu every single day, since I always do the same thing everyday. My schedule is pretty simple really: wake up, go to the temple, come back, eat supper, and go to bed. Though it seems pretty boring to other people, I do not mind it one bit. But what I do mind is the fact I feel empty inside.
'Why….' I thought to myself,' Why…after all these years here, doing the same thing everyday, looking for peace, why do I feel the same? Why do I still feel empty inside?'
I have asked myself presently these painful thoughts in my head and it only came to one conclusion.
Misao…
I have not seen her, nor heard her since I have gotten that dreadful letter. Yes, to be precise, it was just about 3 years ago since the letter. I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss her. She was the only reason why I bothered to come back here. 'So why am I still here?' Hoping that one day she will come back here, and to me. I could not believe how much she had grown while I was away; she was practically a woman then.
'But what about now?'
'Where she is now, is she okay and alright'. These other thoughts always come into my head each day. I must of been to much into my thoughts as I am now inside the temple room. As I sat in my usual position, my thoughts came back to Misao. But thats no surprise since I always think of her. I practicly cant meditate since I always think about her. So I come here everyday, thinking about her and when she'scoming back, as of yet again, I feel the same emotions inside me...saddness...regret...and loneliness...
' Misao...please...come back to me...'
Regular pov.
Poor Aoshi though, if he weren't in his thoughts so much, he would of senced or saw someone outside the temple lookin in. But that figure vanished quickly into the forest once agian.
Misao pov.
'I cant believe it', I thought. After three years, he hasnt changed a bit. I of course, cant say the same. I have cut my hair so it comes before my waist. I have also gotten more womanly curves through out my travels.'But what have I done really'. All I have done was cause more pain to myself as I was trying to find myself. But all I could think of was him, and what he woud be doing then and now. But he could never know I was here, I could never feel that horrible feeling I felt when he told me to go.
' I cant'...
' Never again...'
No I shall not feel that again, the feeling of being abandoned. But wait, I was abonded so that would make sence. I must of been in my thoughts so much that i didnt even know that I was just standing right outside the temple looking in for so long.'Oh no...he could see me!'
I quickly ran and leaped on a tree and noticed that he didnt see me and continued to meditate. I sighed and decided that I would go and take a walk at about midnight since no one is up at that time.' Funny, it was December and it hasnt snowed yet...'With this thought in mind, I left as the darkness consumed me over, as onethought came into my mind.
' Oh Aoshi...please come back.'
