DISCLAMIER: The poem is an original written by me.

After that I fell asleep. I woke up maybe an hour later.

"Hey there," said Koyuki "The doctor came and said you would be fine. But you have to take this every 4 hours. He pointed to a bottle on the table by the couch.

Koyuki stayed home until I was better. It took about a week.

---------------------------------------------------xp

"Do you think you can go to school today?"

I looked at him half-asleep and nodded. Yawned and rolled off the couch. It took me about 20 minutes to get ready, and then Koyuki and I were off to school.

As we walked I saw a sign on the door of the local club that said "HELP WANTED"

"Hey Koyuki, look." I pointed to the sign. "Do you think they would hire me?"

"I don't see why not. But why do you want a job now?" he stopped and looked at me.

"Well... I just feel like I should pay you back for taking care of me." I said looking down, knowing that he would tell me no.

"Yami, you know you don't have to do that. My mom and I couldn't be happier to have you around. You aren't a burden, no matter what you think. Ok." And he took my chin and lifted my head."

"But..."

He pointed right in my face and said "NO" and we kept walking.

We got to the school and went our separate ways. I walked to my first class, it was my use-to-be art class. Now it's tutoring.

"It's Yami, right?" a young woman asked me as I walked into a very small room with a large table with about 7 chairs around in and a white bored with one black marker and an eraser.

"Yah" I nodded.

"OK so you teachers tell me that your history grade is...well, less than satisfactory." She looked at me and smiled. She motioned for me to sit. I put my bag on the floor and sat.

"I'm Miss. Kyo." She walked over to a bag and pulled out some papers. "OK so I guess we will start with what you are having trouble with so far."

-------------------------------------------------------------------xp

The bell range and I was off to my English.

"Ok class today we will be writing poems, but not just any poems. We will be writing sonnets.

The teacher passed out paper and we all wrote. I was really getting into it. Every one els was just goofing off and not caring. When we were done the teacher told us to pass our poems to the person next to us. I really didn't want to. All the other people would just laugh at mine because I actually tried.

"So, who thinks there partners poem is worth sharing?" the teacher said looking incredibly happy.

About 10 hands went into the air and one of them was the person with my poem, Yuki.

"Yuki," the teacher called on him. "Who's poem do have?"

"Yami's." he said.

"Ok Yami. Why don't you read it aloud to the class."

Yuki handed me my poem back and I, completely reluctantly, walked up to the front of the class and read

"School by Yami Hakumei Pretending to be something your not, Lying about one thing and then another, Then they catch you saying something rotten, And they make stupid jokes about your mother, Acting like the best and trying to be cool, Trying to fit into a cool group, Then you just end up acting like a fool, You can never win or want to give in, We all hide our own selves with a mask, We all have secrets we wont reveal, We all are here to do a different task, All this, how does it make you feel, Living a life in school breaking every rule, We all just act like one big fool."

It was silent for at least 30 seconds. I just stood there with my heads down looking up.

"Yami, that poem was one of the best I have ever head out of one of my students." The teacher said look as if he would cry. The bell rang and the teacher approached me. "Yami could I submit that poem to a contest I just read about. It will be under your name and I a feeling you are going to win." I nodded and walked out.

The rest of the day was boring. Not much happened the rest of the day.

As I was getting ready to go meet Koyuki.

I ran down to meet Koyuki. He was waiting at the front door

"Koyuki"

"Hey, you ready to go?"

"Yup let's go."

"Oh do you want to go home first or do you want to go to the club to get the job?" he asked me just as we started walking.

"Umm... We can go home first."

"Ok"

And we continued walking.
