I finished this story, about two nights ago. After this chapter, there arethree more! Don't cry though! They're really funny. At least, I hope so. Wow! We're on entry NINE already! This is the fastest I've ever put out an entire story! The order in my typing binder (I put every chapter I need to type in order there. I know, I'm an organization freak!) says that entry twelve will be put out right after I post the last chapter of It Ends Tonight. Hopefully, that will be before July!

Sorry for the cliffhanger at the end of this chapter. I just love writing cliffhangers though, and sometimes reading them! It makes me want to read MORE!

Does anyone even read my endless, blabbering author's notes? Probably not! I'd probably know how to sneak into a movie theater if people did!

Now here's the part where you like to look for your name to see if I love you for reviewing:

I love Petit-Hana, me, Edakumi, Teh Future Mrs. Kyo Sohma, Shiro Aki, x Fade x To x Black x, and The Cucumber Lady!

Kaze no Namidawa: The Diary of Isuzu Sohma

Entry Nine

Graduation is in two weeks.

Fourteen days.

Sometimes when I think about it, it seems like forever, but then later it seems like nothing.

And I've been going to school.

How icky.

I know it's really idiotic to care about education (ha. ha.) but I really have been trying.

So I ran (literally) into Bitchtoko today in the hallway, right? I hadn't talked to her in like four months, when I called her a bitch at her house. And I didn't really feel like talking to her then.

"Isu…Rin?" she said. "You know…I'm really sorry about what happened a while back…"

"Are ya? Took ya long enough," I rolled my eyes. "Go suck something, bitch face. It's all you're good at."

She looked absolutely shocked that I would say such a thing. What a loser.

"Pr…President Takei wants to see you, in the student council office," she told me, head down. I flicked her off and began to walk away, before she spoke again.

"Rin Sohma… what is WRONG with you?"

I stopped walking but didn't turn around.

"I apologize and you don't take it? Talk about holding a grudge! Get over it, already! You and Yuki are both the same. You want to distance yourself from everyone, don't you?"

"You can shut the hell up before I force you to," I said, balling up my fist like 'See! Tee-hee!' "Yuki and I do have a lot in common. We both can't stand bitches."

She had her infamous "WTF?" face on when I stormed away to that stupid student council president's office.

"Ah. Sohma," Takei said as I sat down. His glasses flickered in the light like a creepy mastermind. "Have a seat," he said, which was pretty retarded because I was already sitting down…

"Whadduya want?" I asked, kicking my feet up onto the desk.

He didn't really care. "Well… the whole student council has talking it over, you see, and we believe we would like to assign you a speech, for our upcoming graduation."

"WHAT?"

A speech? I totally bombed my Grade Eight graduation speech! And barely anyone had come to that!

I ran off the stage crying for Hatori.

YOU LAUGH, I KILL YOU!

Fine. Laugh.

HA HA HA HA HA!

Okay, we're done.

"I've only been here for… a semester," I tried to think of an excuse. "Surely you want someone with more experience, Takei!"

"We've chosen you because you're the newest member of the senior class, Sohma," Takei sighed. He could tell I didn't want the part.

"Well that sucks," I sighed, taking my feet off of the desk.

"So you'll do it?"

After school I ran all the way to Gure-nii's house, my temporary home.

"Haru!" I shrieked. I was glad he had gotten there before I did. I jumped onto his lap like a freaking three year old and showed him the paper in my hand, which was slightly crumpled. "I got a B+ on my history test!"

"That's great…" he said quietly, slightly uneasily, pushing my hair behind my ear.

"Yes, Isuzu. It is very great."

I turned at the eerie voice the came randomly from the other side of the room.

Man Bitch.

My body tensed up. Here I was in Haru's lap, and that fag had seen everything.

I felt the shove already.

"I will disregard your entrance… for now. I am here to discuss something," Man Bitch said like a scary controlling person.

"What?" I asked, sitting up.

"You are graduating soon, yes?"

As if he didn't know.

"Yes."

"I am very proud of you. I can honestly say I did not think you would make it, Isuzu."

Shigure and Yuki entered the room.

"So… what university do you plan to attend?"

SHIZ!

It felt like a whale had just landed on my head. Of COURSE I hadn't thought about that! I didn't want any more education then was absolutely necessary!

"The same one as Kagura," I decided.

Akito chuckled his girly, evil chuckle. "I don't think so. You see, Kagura's college is very prestigious, and your grades are simply not high enough."

I was getting straight Cs! What was the big deal?

"Okay…" I couldn't think of anything to say.

"You haven't thought about this, have you?"

It would be stupid to LIE.

"No. I haven't."

"Rin got herself a part-time job at the convenience store down the street," Gure-nii put in. "She's saving her money…"

"I do not care. Shigure, stay out of this."

I could tell Man Bitch was getting angry.

"Isuzu, what do you want to be? What career path have you looked into?"

My head pounded and the room became hotter than hell, like I was deciding on my life right at that second.

"I want to be an author."
