This chapter presents Mitsuki's point of view.

Chapter 2: I found you!

Mitsuki woke up and washed her face. She looked at the blue sky and stretched a bit. She had to work today too. She was still sad that she caused pain for Takuto. She wondered if she was bad luck. After all, it was her fault that Eichi died and now she got Takuto hurt. She always had to be protected and she hated that.

Mitsuki peeked in Takuto's room. Empty. That's all it was. She wondered where he had gone off to. Maybe he hated her for yesterday and left. She looked at the ground and tried to be strong. She wouldn't blame him for leaving.

After she ate breakfast, she walked to work. She looked over to the side of the spot where she was singing. Usually, Takuto would be there but now he isn't. She lost confidence. Without her friends, she wouldn't be able to get as far as a singer.

"Full moon, is there anything wrong? Do you feel sick or something?" Ms. Ooshige looked very worried. I couldn't stand to worry anyone else.

"I-I'm fine! Just feeling a bit faint is all. After all, everyone gets the flu at winter right?" I smiled weakly at her and she left after she made sure that I was all right.

Dr. Wakaouji came in after Ms. Ooshige left. He grew worried about me too. I was…. Happy that so many people cared but at the very same time sad because I might wind up hurting them one day.

I walked alone on my way home, I knew that Eichi was the one I love most but its hurting inside. I looked up at the blue sky and uttered the words I never said in my whole life. "Takuto… I'm so lonely without you." Realizing what I said, I blushed and walked quickly.

I looked around and realized that I don't know where I've gone. "uhhhh…" I looked around more and I instantly got scared. I had to be brave and I don't want to worry anyone anymore. I began to scold myself again. This always happens to me.

I began to wonder around the unfamiliar streets. I decided to ask one of the stores nearby. I approached the music store and carefully opened the door. I peeked inside carefully and looked to see if anyone was there.

"Excuse me? Is anyone here?" I looked around saw lots of CDs.

"Wow, there's even CDs of Route L, Mom and Dad's band. Come to think of it, I only heard a few of their songs. Maybe I should buy it."

I picked up the Route L. CD and went to the counter. I breathed in and screamed.

"HELLO? IS ANYONE HERE?" I heard my voice echo in what seemed like an abandoned store. Suddenly, I heard a crash and some familiar voice.

"OW! Darn, that's what I get for snoozing like that. Oh yeah, we're open. Sorry about that. Welcome to- M-M-M-Mitsuki?" Takuto's voice trembled as he looked at me with awe.

I just stood there like a statue. I thought that Takuto had hated me and went off somewhere.

"Wh-what are you doing here?" He said still trembling. I wondered what he was trembling about. Why couldn't he have told me he was working on the CD store? He made me so worried.

"Hey, why are you crying? Did I do anything wrong? Mitsuki?" He was worried. I don't know why but he was. And what did he mean by 'why are you crying?' I'm not crying. I touched my face. It was wet with tears.

Without thinking, I threw my arms around him and wiped the tears in his shirt. "I-I found you! I've found you Takuto, don't leave me anymore!" I clung to him hiding my face so he wouldn't see me crying so hard.

He put his hand on top of my head. "Yeah… you're right… You found me… Let's go home now. I'm done working."
