Welcome to Chapter Two of "You Wish!". Enjoy 3 Please Review.
POV: Tsukiko
I totally see Erika over there typing away into her labtop computer like a madman. She's so self-absorbed with her image it's pathetic.
Just because Tanpopo is prettier, friendlier and smarter than she is.
...Haha. Well, I wouldn't go as far as to say she's smarter but she can definitely teach the lesson for friendship. Seriously.
Friendship? God, I didn't know what the word really meant until Arisa had to shove the concept into my mind.
It wasn't what I, Koki and probably everyone at stuffy Meio High thought, even though we were the most elite minds that Japan had to offer.
Some country girl had to come in and show us. Aren't we pathetic? You'd think so.
She had a difficult time adjusting. Everyone downed her, dissing on her social status and her wealth. While we were all safe paying our tuition and having thousands upon thousands of dollars left over, she was stuck barely being able to pay for her tuition.
Now me, if I were her...I would have just quit. I, the sometimes over-dramatic yet weak-hearted Tsukiko Saionji could never handle being told I was disgusting. And then have other people agree.
Or push me out of the way, just because I was different.
I guess that's probably what made me like her so much. She could handle not just one, but all of that...and still have a smile on her face with no doubts on the path she chose.
She has and has always had faith in me. Even when I would deviously create plots to ruin her advances on Koki.
And the reason we're best friends? Beyond me. I guess it's just one of my scheming plans gone bad.
But it didn't go bad at all. It was actually...a good thing.
I'm a part of a group of friends that feel like family, I have a crazy boyfriend who is obsessed with his music (J-rock, what else?), a computer hacker and has lightning typing skills.
I have another close friend, Arisa, she's already a mother at 15...kinda gross, I know, but still...we're great friends. She's changed alot since she met Tanpopo.
She never had any friends and she dressed very skimpy-like. I guess she must have had a really low self-esteem since her mother was always sleeping around on her father.
Some role-model. Sheesh.
Oh, well, my parents aren't any better but...
Well, we're richer. That's all that matters.
Anyway, so that's Arisa...Koki? Oh. He's just...there. He doesn't connect with me the way he connects with Tanpopo. They were definitely made for eachother. I wish Erika would just see that and buzz off. She's like a mosquito. Annoying.
But it's nice that Koki hangs out with us when he could be off doing his own thing with all the other kids at school. I mean, really. He's popular, handsome, famous, rich and he eats lunch with us dorks from the planting club.
Well, he's tecnically the guy who approved all the stuff for it...so I guess he can't be too far from a dork at heart...right?
RIGHT?
Well, whatever. It doesn't mean anything to me anymore. We've quickly dominated the school with our club! We are victorious! peace sign
...Okay. I so did not just do that.
End of Chapter two. Please tell me what you thought :)
