Chapter 6: " Watch Me Shine. "

This was the last day for my stay in the hospital. Practically. I'm glad, I'm sick of hospitals.

Right now Ri sensei took a day off to accompany me towards school.

" Suzuki chan. Are your clothes all fixed? "

Yes. Hey, Ri sensei. Did you that I didn't truly know you as an idol.

" What?! Everybody knows me. That's absurd. "

Well I know you now as the best teacher-slash idol, I grinned like a crazy maniac after I tolld sensei that.

" That's sweet, Suzuki chan. " Ri sensei ruffled my hair. Let's go sensei. " Alright, Let's go Suzuki chan. "

Me and Ri sensei Rode his car. " Sensei, Are you really gay? "

What?!

He looked dumbfounded when I asked him that.

" I'm not gay. I'm just doing my job. "

Well, Sensei. Is your hair really pink?

" That's top secret, Suzuki chan. "

Ok. I looked at the window. Then I saw a billboard of ' Starish ' I took my time to look at there faces, I saw a very familiar face. Eh! That man.

" Eh? "

I pointed the blue haired boy which had straight hair. That man, he caught me when I almost collapsed.

" Hijirikawa Masato kun? Ah. He was one of my students. "

So that time. When I overheard the girls talking. That man. He was Hijirikawa Masato. He's part of Starish. I've got to admit, They're all handsome.

I've got a question for you, Suzuki chan.

What is it sensei?

" Have you ever been in a relationship? "

Eh!? No, I've lived my life in a hospital for 10 year- I covered my mouth. I spilled some beans.

" What? Can you repeat what you've just said about a hospital. "

I didn't say anything. I tried to force a smile but I failed. Oh no, At this point ri sensei will ask me about it over and over again. He might know my past. " I'm still not prepared to tell my terrible past. "

Through out the whole ride we were quiet. This must have upset him, I stared long at sensei. " Sensei, Gomenasai. " I can't tell you. For now, It's too painful for me...

I recieved a ruffle instead. " Suzuki chan, I understand. Of course the first one who will know about it is the headmaster. "

Arigatou sensei..., He understands.

Not long we arrive in the campus. Sensei gave the quards my stuff. I needed help on standing up so sensei helped me.

I walked slowly because my legs still ache. The students looked at me, Well this is new. They no longer talked, stared, glared at me.

When we reach the path towards the girls dorms, I see Dia and the other girls. They looked sorry for what they've done.

" Suzuki san, We are sorry for what we've done. Thankyou for persuading the headmaster to let us stay. We are very grateful to you despite the horrible things we've done. "

I smiled, Dia san. Everybody, I didn't want you to experience your dream being broken. You still need to achive your dreams, And I understand it. I have already forgiven you all.

I recieved a suprise hug from them. For the first time. I can feel the warmth, They're doing this truthfully. I tried to hide the tears of joy, Mello, my bird. Was circling around us.

We bid our goodbye's and I went to my room. I'm very happy, I feel appreciated. For the first time, It's as if my smile reached my ears. I'm gonna fulfill my dream, I feel the determination running through me. I began to write songs. The whole day I wrote songs for the near thought about me singing popped in my head.

Maybe I should try singing. It's been years since I've last sung. I sat on the piano's stool, The song me and my mother sang. But this time, Just me.

Aki wa mizube ni

Fuyu kozue ni hisomu

Sekai no oku no

Kagirinai yasashisa

Yoru ga kuru tabi

Inori wo sasageyou

Ashita kuru hi wo

Shizuka ni mukaeyou

I reminsce the time when me and my mother sang it. I was still a little girl back then.

Watashi wo michibiku

Tooi tooi yobigoe yo

Hohoemu youni

Utau youni

Hibiku kaze no oto

Closing my eyes. At the end of the song. I muttered silently. " Oka san, This is for you. "

I melody made it's way to my mind. I quickly wrote it down in my note book. I continued to work on my new song until i felt sleepy. Since I took a bath awhile ago. I decided to wash and brush my face.

After that I decided to sleep, " Goodnight Mello. "

I was busy walking towards the cafeteria, I was still sleepy. I woke up at 4 " o clock and I deidn't get to sleep again so I took a bath. I did a lot of things and now I felt like I'd bump into something or somebody.

I closed my eyes for a second and I tripped and fell. My eyes were still closed. I was waiting for the impact, I was hoping for somebody to catch me like before. But the ' prince-in-shining-armor ' doesn't really come everytime. And yes, Like I said. The impact I kissed the floor hard.

Sigh. Why am I so clumsy? I bought my food and after that I proceeded towards our classroom.

Once I entered the room. I was caught off-guard in the sudden outburst.

" Ohayo, Suzuki san! "

Ehh?! I was shocked, everybody greeted me. Another ' first ' I was doing a small victory dance in my head. Since I'll look like an idiot if I do it in front of them. I answered them back

" Ohayo Gozaimas, Minna. " Everybody smiled at me. I can tell, They're being truthful. And I'm really happy.

Sensei came in and as usual, He was wearing his ' Cross-dresser ' get up. Sensei informed us about the graduation audition. Since our school had a different curriculum. We also had different types of exams. And the graduation audition is the ticket towards an idol debut,

The idols sing the songs created by the composers.

In my case, I no longer need a partner since I'm taking both courses. I heard ny name being called like before.

" Suzuki chan. Will you play the song which earned you the highest grade. " I quickly standed up and walked towards the piano.

I sat on the stool and I began to play my song, " Stand Up. " but of course without vocals.

The pace of the song slowed down, And the song ended. " Sensei why did you ask me to play it? "

Because, The song reminded me of the songs Nanami chan creates.

Nanami Haruka, I want to meet her so badly. I'm gonna meet her soon. I smiled, I'm gonna make my debut soon. Perhaps.

Class ended shortly. And time passed by so quickly, I made some aquiantances. And I'm very glad about it.

I'm a few steps away from my dream. Everybody. " Watch Me Shine. "

To Be Continued...
