"Class Dismissed."

Stand. Bow. Sit.

I took my bag and went outside the classroom. After I stepped outside the classroom, I saw a bunch of girls looking and staring at the windows. They kept yelling and screaming. My head ached causing me to go as far as possible from them. They remind me of Sora's fangirls.

"That's from the school a train ride away from here, right?"

"I believe its Destiny Islands or something or maybe somewhere in the middle of it? I don't know."

My face began to sweat and my body can no longer move. I gulped and started to hesitate if I'm going to look. I got hunch that it was Sora. Who could else that be? Maybe he wants to…..

"Kairi…" Selphie said while waking me up. "You're going to leave today, right?"

I sat up and nodded. She turned around and fixed her bed then I gave the biggest frown that I made in my life on her back. It's not because it was the good part of the dream but it's because he didn't show up.

I didn't saw him again.

It felt like he was avoiding me.

While waiting for him to show up, I never noticed that the time was ticking and moving. If it was, maybe I was waiting for an eternity. In other words it was impossible yet I'm still waiting.

After I saw him, I went instantly to Selphie and cried to my heart's content. I told her everything from my feelings up to the way he acted that day to me. He didn't greet. He didn't smile. I bet he didn't want to see me as well.

Selphie hugged me and looked like she wanted to tell me something. I smiled and looked at her. I shook my head and touched her face.

I don't want to hear that.

I'm just going to suffer.

Enough is enough.

"How's vacation?" Namine said while Roxas ,Namine and I went to the student council room.

I shook my head and acted like I'm crying. "It was the worst I SAW HIM but still I got to spend it with my best friend." This is the only way of forgetting this. To act like you don't care and joked about it.

I hope I can do it though….

"You saw him?" Namine asked with a surprised tone.

"I knew it! We should have come with you." Roxas snapped his fingers and exclaimed.

I just smiled and carry on walking. "Yep, I saw him when I went to visit some of my favorite spots in our hometown. Can you believe it?" I laughed. If this acting goes well I'm going to take drama-related course in college. I'm getting good at this.

Namine and Roxas looked at each other and proceeded on the room. My jaw dropped on how heartless they are. No why's and how are you? Maybe I'm just good at acting and it was very convincing. I guess that was really it.

"Kairi hurry up! The meeting is about to start. We can't start without you. You're the secretary you know!" One of the three stooges said to me. I nodded and hasten my way to the room.

Will he came rushing in?

Knock! Knock!

"This is Sora. I need to talk to Kairi immediately." His voice echoed at the student council room. "If you don't open this I'm going to barge in."

Namine sighed and showed displeasure. "That's not even lock you know. Attention whore."

The guys looked at me and grinned. All their tail and horns showed up. If Namine wasn't there, they will tease me for sure. I sighed and raised my hands in the air.

Fine, fine. I'm going to talk to him.

"Meeting adjourned." Namine said.

I shook my head and regained my senses. I looked at my notebook and it was completely empty. I didn't write anything about the discussion they had this meeting. Namine will surely scold at me. I raised my notebook and tried to hide my face with it.

"Kairi." Namine's ice-cold voice said. I started to tremble and threw tantrums for divine protection or earplugs if God is choosy. She then took a notebook and threw it at me. My tantrums started to change from divine protection to invincibility or better yet teleportation. I will teleport her to MARS.

"That's what we all talked about." She turned around and walked away. "Roxas noticed that you're spacing out so he jots down notes just in case."

Roxas smiled at me and gave a V-sign pose. I sighed and thanked God immediately for giving me an immediate response. I opened the notebook and checked the pages. I then noticed at the last page there was something written there.

You can do it Kairi. You're strong. –Namine.

I smiled and looked at the ceiling, Namine you liar.

After that, I confined myself on my room. I lie on my bed and wander on my thoughts. I kept on thinking on scenarios that might happen between us. Who knows maybe tonight he will throw pebbles at my window and serenade me right? There are many possibilities. ANYTHING could happen.

"You dumb idiot scatterbrain Kairi." Namine shouted while putting down a handful of paperwork on the table.

"You're mean" I pouted and rest my head on the table.

"I'm not mean. I'm just telling the truth." She turned to me and objected.

"Can you let me dream?" I said to her and pleaded.

She hit me in the head without warning and sighed. "Please use that tremendous amount of imagination of yours on your test paper." She rubbed her forehead and moaned from pain. "You can make impossible things to be possible."

I folded my arms and pouted. "Those things can really happen! You don't know Sora! He will do things like that!" I stuck my tongue out from anger. I was starting to lose my common sense. I know she was right and all but all those things are hard not to believe.

She sighed once again. Namine started to lose her patience. She looked at me eye to eye and said. "It's okay to dream but dream if there is a slightest chance of him wanting you." She grabbed my shoulder and held it tight. "He didn't cry nor acted like you when you two met. So please for your own safety moved on! If he'd loved you enough he will not wait for you to cross paths again. He will chase you just seconds after you ran away."

I closed my eyes and tried to comprehend her words. I nodded and heed her. I believed in her but my heart can't take it and my tears want to flow endlessly.

Is this why moving on is really hard, even though I can't see him?

"Kairi." Sora said while sitting like a gangster at the front of our gate. He stood up and smiled. He took something on his pocket and gave it to me.

I opened it slowly and saw a ring with an etched marking "I'm sorry" on it. He took it from the box and put in my hands. I covered my face and cried.

"Why do you want me to fall in love with you even more?"

I want to move on but dreams like this always halt my progress. Is this the side effect of loving him so much? Is that why unrequited love hurts? It drives you to the corner but still, you can feel happy even though he's breaking you apart already.

"Go back here if you have time, Kairi." A bunch of first years and second years shouted to me while I walked away for the last time at our middle school. I turned to them and raised my diploma.

I'm going to have a boyfriend this High School. I PROMISE.

I looked at sign board as hardly as I could. I'm already on tiptoe but I still can't see what class I am in. I lose my balance for a couple of times already, good thing someone always catch me. Then finally I found my name from the list.

"I found it, Class 1-C!" I exclaimed in joy. My journey has been long and hard.

"How annoying." Someone from the back groaned and shouted. Based on his tone he was VERY displeased. I gulped and turned around to apologize if it was my fault. But a sudden twist of fate flashed by in an instance.

He was there.

A one in a million chance in a person's lifetime.

[Author's Notes]

I'm following Japan's education curriculum, one Middle School (consisting of three years) and one Senior High School (which is also three years).

Again, Kairi transferred in the middle of her second year in middle school and now she's entering senior high. Yes, it's a timeskip. Because there will be no development if I continued on her middle school life. She will just dream and dream on things that will never happen. Besides this is the most interesting part of the story. STAY TUNED.
