I read the first chapter, carefully absorbing the information on each page. It probably sounded like I'm studying to you and I was. I was trying to learn everything I could about girls. Then maybe, just maybe, I could finally get Kimiko to like me… I carefully read the title of the first chapter: Give Her Flowers, and skimmed the rest of the contents. I already know what to do now, so why bother?
Concentrating with the skill of a brain surgeon, I conjured up wind, wind so strong it can lift me up into the air. I smiled, watching how my powers have grown. Not bad, not bad at all. Then the headaches start. I frowned. Those twinges of pain grow steadily worse the longer I keep myself hovering in the air, so time is needed. Quickly I flew over to the town just down the hill. Even though I've "flown" many times, I still haven't gotten used to the feeling of flying. I prepared myself for a graceful flight, one that will cause the townspeople to look at me. Then, a sharp twinge of pain erupted in my head. Startled, I fell to the ground. Great. The one time I want to look cool, I end up falling flat on the ground! Oh, joy.
I get up and run over to the florist's shop. If Master Fung calls us, I'll have to tell them I went to the town. And then he'll ask why- I can't answer that! With the speed of the wind, I left the shop, a pair of bright flowers in my hands. I forgot what the guy said; they were called. Tigerflowers… or something. I crept up to Kimiko's room and put my ear against the door. She was talking to someone, probably Keiko. I swear, she talks to her every five minutes. I eavesdropped in on the conversation and prepared to open the door when Kimiko said, "FLOWERS! No way. I'm, like, allergic to them." She giggled, a sound that I wished I could hear again. But then the news hit me. She's allergic to flowers? I cursed, and then walked slowly away. Stupid book.
