Picture Perfect
Chapter OneI stared at his picture in my hand. I remember his name; it isn't too hard for me to forget his name. I would love to meet him again, but yet, he left. I sighed his name. "chaos…"
It all happened awhile back…
"Hey, Sumina!"
I jumped up, and shoved the picture of Yue under my pillow. I don't remember where I got it exactly, I just… had it. Ta entered my room with the most innocent look in the world. And I just knew she was up to something. "Yes, Ta?"
"I was wondering… there's this friend of mine, you see, he's in a bit of a jam and well… I told him I would help, but I found out I was busy. So, can you help him?" she asked.
"What could you possibly be doing?" I asked, confused. Usually, Ta had all the time in the world.
"My lil' angels wanted to go to the park the day he was coming…"
"But why don't you just take him with you?"
"I can't explain. He's in a really big jam and he can't be going out in public!" Ta said. She put on her cute little ferret face that I can never say no to. "Please?"
I nodded reluctantly. "Alright, but what do I have to do, Ta?"
"Just protect him. Hang out. You know, the normal stuff. He just can't go to places that are populated because he might be seen. Well, you can, because he can protect himself too, but err… I'd rather him not going."
"Why?"
"He's got powers too. I mean, it's not a bad thing, but—"
It was taking her such a long time to answer. I was getting bored. "Alright, I got it!" I interrupted quickly. Just so she knew, I summed up what she had said to me. "Just protect him and I can go on with my daily life."
"Yeah, that's it, Sumina! I also talked to Keikei and Kyohei and 'em. You get the whole day off that day!"
My face lit up. "Really, Ta? You're the best!" I said, hugging her. I stepped back, embarrassed. "Sorry, you know. Busy schedule. Anyway, what's his name?"
Ta paused, thinking about it. "Err… it's on the tip of my tongue… something like destruction… ruin…"
I interrupted, knowing this may take a while for her to figure out. "Anyway, what day am I meeting him on?"
"Oh, he's coming over tomorrow and staying for a day or two."
"Tomorrow, oh, alright. It's a Sunday. I'll be fine," I said. "I'll just finish up on cleaning and I'll be fine. I'm so glad I have this week off because it's the principle's birthday."
"The week?"
"Yeah, he went on vacation."
"Lucky you…"
Ta walked out of my room with her ferrets following close behind. The white one looked back at me, nodding as if saying thank you. I smiled.
"Umi'nade (You're welcome)" I said back to it. It hurried off to catch up with Ta. The rest of the night was a usual quiet, Ta playing with her ferrets and teaching them weird things and I just sat in my room, daydreaming about anything that came to mind. I felt calm thinking about Yue, or what I remembered. All I truly remember is that he was my first love and he died in my arms.
Ta left early in the morning. She must've wanted to take all day with her ferrets. I was simply cleaning, when I heard the doorbell.
"Ta must've forgotten something," I said as I opened the door. But, deceivingly, I saw a boy. Looking about 16-17ish, with lightly tanned skin, silverish-white hair, and calming green eyes. His clothing was out of the ordinary. I've never seen anything like it before.
"May I speak to Ta?" he asked, his voice calm and somewhat deep.
"She left," I stated. I was thinking over in my head on how different his clothes were, not to mention his hair and eyes. "Are you the one that she said she'd look after?"
"I am," he replied.
"I was given the job of that because… she had other things to do," I replied. I bowed, as I always did. "I'm Sumina Suisha, pleased to meet you."
He bowed also. "Pleased to meet you, Sumina. I'm chaos."
