6. Sayonara Memories - Supercell

"I guess in the end, I couldn't bring myself to give this to him..." Lire says, rolling over her bed, clutching the letter in her hand. She sighs and looks at the letter for a while, placing it on her nightstand afterwards. Lying on her back, she closes her eyes and tries to remember each memory she had of her and Ryan.


"Okay class, settle down, today you'll have a new classmate. Young lady, please come in."

All eyes went to the door as a girl with blonde hair and forest-green eyes entered the room and walked up to the teacher.

"Would you so kindly introduce yourself, Miss Lire?"

"Hello everybody. My name is Lire, I'm 16 years old. I hope to be friends with all of you, it's nice to meet you all."

"Welcome, Lire. You may take a seat on the empty seat besides Ryan." the mentioned boy raised his hand, so as to let Lire see where he was. She walked towrds him and he pointed to the seat next to him. She murmured a soft "thank you" and sat down her seat.

"History is kinda boring, so ya might wanna drink some coffee before class to keep awake." he said and chuckled softly, making Lire giggle a bit as well.

"Mah name's Ryan. Nice to meet'cha, Lire." Ryan says, flashing a grin at Lire, whom smiled back. And that was when Lire had started liking Ryan.


"Hey, Lire, look! The cherry blossoms had bloomed earlier this year!" Ryan said, always the nature-lover. Lire looked at him in amusement. The orange-haired boy had led (rather, dragged) Lire to a hill where a cherry blossom tree stood. Lire watched as a single petal fell off, her eyes following the way the petal swayed in the wind.

"Isn't that right?" she laughed, even though she knew, after a little while more, they won't be able to go back to that place anymore.

"When spring comes, we'll all go our separate ways..." Ryan murmurs.

"It's makes me... kinda sad."

"Don't worry, we'll always stay best friends!" Ryan says, grinning at Lire.


Several memories played in her head, every joyful and sad memories slowly coming back to her, from where she first transfered to the academy, to today, their last day of school.


Today was their last day of school, and Lire still hadn't told Ryan that she loved him. They had grown close in the past year, and Ryan had become her closest friend, probably because he was the one who befriended her at her first day in the school.

"Hey, slowpoke! Hurry up with fixing you're things, I'm still waiting..." Lire says, they were the only two persons in the room left, and Lire was leaning on one of the desks, looking at Ryan from time to time. she had a letter behind her back, clutching it tightly, it was a letter containing a confession, and she was deciding wether or not to give it to him.

"A'right, I'm all done." this startled Lire, as she almost stumbled on the desk she was leaning on.

"Oh, o-okay. Then let's get going!"

They walked their way back home, and Lire had intentionaly took a detour, because, even though it was a little longer, he wanted to be at Ryan's side.

"Ooops, I might have made a mistake. We went the wrong way." she said giggling, trying to sound as innocent as possible.

"I guess you did, but on the bright side, at least we have a little more time together, right?" he smiled warmly, and Lire looked away to hide the blush on her face.


"Maybe we're meant to stay friends..." she sighed, rolling over again. Then she noticed that something was missing; the letter was gone. She looked for it, until she heard a voice.

"Looking for something?"

She looked for the source of the voice and found an exact replica of herself, looking more like a ghost, holding the letter in her hands.

"Catch me if you can!"

"Wait!"

Her copy ran out the door and Lire soon following after, though she was confused of what was happening. Several times she tried to snatch the letter away, but she was too fast. The copy kept on running, and Lire soon realized where she was taking her. To their school.

"Feeling tired yet? Just a lttle more!"

She continued following her copy towards thier classroom and entered, where her copy finally stopped, leaning on a desk. She took the oppurtunity and grabbed the letter, but as soon as she did, white light stuck her vision, and, as if time had gone back, she was back in their room with Ryan.

"A'right, I'm all done." Ryan says, and Lire looks down, her heart was beating frantically.

"Hey, Earth to Lire... can ya hear me?"

She decided, she was already here, and she was given a second chance, why not say it? She crumpled the letter she was holding, and spoke.

"Ryan, sorry, somehow, I can't say this very well, but you see, I... with you... how do I put it? With things left the way they are now, I just don't want to say goodbye. I don't want to be just friends anymore."

Ryan's eyes widened, and didn't know if it was a good reaction or not, but she had already started, she had to finish.

"I decided I'd say it, my feelings for you, always... always, since a long time ago... I... you... I love you!" she finished her sentence, and bowed her head quickly, notknowing how Ryan would react. She was expecting him to leave, but instead, a pair of arms wrapped themselves around her.

"It's not cool for the girl to make the first move... but I guess now's a greater time than never..."

"H-huh?"

"Lire, it's okay, I accept your confession." he chuckled, "Lire, I think I've fallen for you..."

Ryan moved his face closer to her ear, and said

"I love you too, Lire."
