It has been 6 years after the accident happened. I was around 11 years of age when that misfortunate day occurred. I remembered when my father carried me in his arms all the way to the hospital. My parents cried as they waited for the results; whether if I'll live or die. The doctor said the fall I took nearly broke my skull in two, that I was lucky to even be breathing that moment. They've talked nearly about 2 hours, and I can still hear my mother's sobs as she listened to what the doctor's explanation.

"Your daughter, is very lucky to be alive... if someone come here with the same condition, they would likely be dead before I get my hands on them...", he paused, then added, " It seems like your daughter have a guardian angel..."
He spoke so quietly as if scared I'll be disturbed by the sound of his vibrating voice.

A guardian angel, I thought and suddenly felt a warm embrace. I returned the embrace and did not let go, nor open my eyes.

"Chihiro...", I heard someone say, but still I stood my ground and did not let go. The person's voice reminded me of someone I've love; then out of curiosity I snapped my eyes open and there I saw emerald green eyes staring warmly at me. It was him, I cried and held him more tightly. He had saved me from my fall and here he is in here in the hospital...are we even in the hospital?
I looked around the surroundings we were at. It was a sparkling blue ocean..or was it a river, and on top of that we were floating above it.

"Ha..", I said; then I stopped. I can't talk! I panicked, why the hell can't i talk? He must have seen my expression because he made me look into his eyes.

"Don't worry... you're okay...apparently you can only talk to me in your mind", he whispered to me that sent shivers throughout my body. He gave me another warm hug and did not let go and I did the same.

I allowed time to pass-by and we just held each other lovingly. The wind blew a few times in our way, I got a whiff of fresh air. I scanned the surroundings again and i thought this must be river. The river shimmer below us in the morning sun.

"Chihiro, I don't want to lose...", he spoke, and finally let me free from that 'I'll-never-let-you-go-hug' and looked at my sapphire eyes. I'll never let that happen... I'll be here now and forever, I thought. I hoped that he heard what I have said...or thought.

"It's a shame that I could not always be there when you are in trouble", he responded. Then added, "I promise... we'll see each other again". I gasped as he put his lips onto mines. The coldness of our kiss ended everything. "Haku...", I uttered as i fell in a deep sleep that'll change my life here and out.

I was 11 years of age when that misfortunate accident happen, and my guardian angel was the one who saved me from death itself.

"Hi my name is Chihiro and I am 16 years old. I would say I am very stubborn, and curious", I told my non-interested classmates. They clapped, but i felt they weren't really clapping...was that a pity clap. I don't really want to know. This was my third year in high school and still hating it. everyone seems so distant from me, Am I so strange that no one even bothers to know who i am? Or at least acknowledge that i exist, and living a miserable life, am I that strange?

Maybe I am.., I thought. I look at myself as a weirdo, with no friends and someone who doesn't have a life. Wait... that isn't entirely true... umm the no friends part, i do have one. Her name is Chise and she's my loyal and only friend in the entire world. I met her when i moved into this town. Chise is not really a weirdo, she used to be in the "in-group" until she became my friend; then her so-friends dumped her. I don't really understand why she would be friends with the likes of me.

Chise is so pretty compare to me; she has this perfectly tanned skin, long skinny legs, shoulder-length ebony hair, and her face is to die for. But me I have... I would say an "okay" appearance. I am not short or tall, I am just right; i have this long chocolate brown hair pass my bra-strap. I do have curves in the right places and i grew all in the right places. I guess that working out thing paid off. I smirked at that thought. My face isn't really to die for but its alright, I have milky soft skin all throughout my body. And my face is like, I would say a porcelain doll. Every now and then you'll se me with a scarlet cheek, I blushed easily.

As I thought about my appearance, i am not really bad looking, but why is it that I have not been asked out or have lots of friend? It seems like I don't belong in this place... I got frustrated at my self and then i felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned and it was Chise's bubbly self.

"What's up Chihiro... are you thinking hard again?", she poked my temple and smiled.

"Yeah, what of it", I countered as I walked pass her, she followed and I knew she would. She always knows when I'm bothered.

"What's wrong now... you know i was just kidding", she said. Then she pull me into a stop and twirl me around. She's a few inches taller than me. "Chihiro... are you mad at me... I'm sorry okay... I'm sorry", Chise apologized. She always apologizes even when it's not her fault.

Chise hugged me in the middle of the hallway. The hallway was pretty dim and cold. Freaking school can't even afford their own electric system, I thought.

"Chise...what are you apologizing for... I am suppose to be that one saying that", I said now feeling guilty. We stood in the middle of the hallway getting all warmed up, until someone told us to go get a room. We both blushed at that comment, were we that closed?

"Forgive me..", i said as i looked at Chise who nodded. We walked together when school ended then parted our ways.
