Perhaps Love
♡ Chapter 1 Love at first sight
"Mommy," Mitsuki cried running through the pouring rain. She held her tears as long as she could, wiping them with her sleeve every few seconds. Looking around, she was surrounded by strangers.
"Mommyy!" Mitsuki stepped forward and tripped, her pink teddy umbrella fell out in front of her and she lifted her muddy face from the puddle. She burst out in tears and slowly got up.
"You okay?" A young teenage boy picked up the umbrella and handed it to her. Six-year-old Mitsuki looked up, sobbing. His wet, blonde hair fell into his face as crouched down to her. "Where's your mom?" Mitsuki started to cry again.
"Here come with me," he took her hand and smiled. She looked up at him. "Don't cry," he said, bending down and wiping her tears.
"Now, do you know where you live?" Mitsuki nodded and pointed to her street. They walked towards the street.
"Mitsuki!" A voice cried behind them. "I've been looking everywhere for you!" Mitsuki's mother ran to her. With an immensely relieved look on her face, she thanked the boy.
"Let's go," her mom said taking her hand. Mitsuki scowled and clung to the boy, hugging his legs tightly. They laughed.
"Mit…suki…" her mom said with clenched teeth five minutes later, both her and the boy trying to get her hand to let go. Finally, when they managed to wrench her hand free, she picked her up. Her eyes started to tear up when he started walking away. She looked at her mom, threatening to cry, and her mom let her down. She ran back to him and pulled shyly on his jacket.
"I'm Mitsuki," she said looking at her yellow boots. The boy smiled and held out his hand.
"Hi Mitsuki, I'm Eichi." She turned around and ran back to her mom, her cheeks flushed.
Puppy love… her mom thought as she rushed the love struck girl into the house.
She jumped onto her bed, enjoying the soft fluffy sheets. Tomorrow's a new school year… She grinned. She couldn't wait.
"I wonder if I'll meet my true love…" Mitsuki bit her lip. She's always wanted to meet the perfect guy and have a movie relationship. Like her rain… her Eichi…
"Please Miki, you know he'll be like 100 years old when you meet him again?" Meroko teased, brushing her long pink hair.
"Wh-What? What are you talking about Meroko!" Mitsuki yelled, her face red.
"Can't forget your first love eh?" Mitsuki fumed and threw a pillow at Meroko, but she closed the door just in time.
"…And that's why you only date guys like Eichi!" She added, stuck her tongue out and quickly left. Miki glared. It was weird that she could not forget him. It was something about the rain and him that made her fall in love. Eichi…I hope I meet you again someday…
