Chapter 2: My Wish
Daphne and I were riding in the limousine. I sighed. Daphne noticed it and asked "Sakuno-sama, is there something wrong?"
"Daphne, can we visit him before we go back home?" I asked her in a low voice.
"As you wish Sakuno-sama." she said with a smile and told the driver to go to that place.
I muttered a "thank you" and looked outside the window. I smiled sadly. 'I miss you so much.'

"Sakuno-sama we are here now." Daphne woke me up from my short nap.
I slowly went out in the car and go directly to where he is. When I arrived to where he is I slowly kneel down and said with teary eyes "It's been a while right?"
Daphne, who was behind me just looked at me with a sad eyes.
"How I wish you're with me right now." I said in a sad voice as my tears started to fall down.
"If only that night didn't happen, I bet until now our family was still the happiest family in the world. But it seems like it won't happen again… You know I miss you so much." I kept on crying while Daphne hugged me.
"sshh… please don't cry now Sakuno-sama, I'm sure if he saw you crying he would be sad." she said.
"It hurts too much Daphne. But you're right, I should stop crying or else he would be sad." I put a smile on my face but I knew I just force myself to smile.
"That's better." she smiled. "Shall we go then?" I nodded and we left.

It was late evening and I was walking in the park. I sat on the bench and looked at the beautiful night sky. It was so peaceful. I'm all alone until…
"Well it seems like we meet again Ms. Twin Braids." I heard a man said that. I looked up and saw the man before. The man who is so arrogant, an arrogant jerk!
'Something's not right. Her eyes…it seems like sadness were visible in those beautiful eyes…wait? Did I just call her eyes beautiful? What the heck? What's happening to you Ryoma?' Ryoma scolded himself.
"I didn't know that you will like me that fast 'cause it seems like you're following me." I smirked at what I said.
Ryoma frowned. "Me? Will like a thing like you? And will follow you? Are you kidding me? Those people who like you are a bunch of idiots." Ryoma jokingly said.
I laughed bitterly. "Yeah, you're right. Those people who like me are a bunch of idiots." I said bitterly.
RYoma was surprised by this. He wasn't really serious of what he said. He didn't know that she will take it seriously. He meant it as a joke. "Hey-!" Sakuno cut him off.
"I'm really a burden to them. And I don't even know why they still like me." My tears are threatening to fall but I must control it. I can't cry in front of a stranger. No, I can't!
"What are you talking about?" he asked.
"You wouldn't still understand it." I can't control my tears anymore so I let it fall.
Ryoma was shocked to see that the girl in front of him was crying. "Hey, why are you crying? Have I done something wrong? You know I was just joking a while ago." he said honestly.
I chuckled. "I wasn't crying for that idiot." I wiped my tears using the back of my hand.
"Oh. I thought you were crying because of that." Ryoma looked up and saw that there were shooting stars. "Hey looked up there are shooting stars. Make a wish Ms. Twin braids."
I looked up to see if he was telling the truth. And he was. I closed my eyes and made a wish.
Ryoma looked at her. His eyes softened. 'I didn't know that she was this beautiful.' he thought. He didn't make a protest because it was the truth.
The girl in front of him was indeed beautiful.
He looked up and made a wish too.
Ryoma heard a sob. He looked at her and saw she was crying again. Ryoma didn't know what to do, so the only thing in his mind is to give her a….
"Here," he gave her a handkerchief "you can use it to wipe your tears."
I stared at him and accept it. "Thank you" I said and wiped my tears.
"It seems like what you wish made you cry, right?" Ryoma guessed.
"What made you think of that?"
"You wouldn't be crying if you didn't make a wish."
"I smiled bitterly. "Yeah, you're right." Ryoma saw the smile and It seems like it's full of bitter, sadness and pain.
"Do you mind telling me what did you wish for?" he asked curiosity was visible in his voice.
"My mother always tells me that never talk to strangers. But now here I am talking to a stranger. And asking me what I wish for." I chuckled.
Ryoma smiled and said "My mother too tells me that. But when I first saw you, you were completely a stranger to me but now it seems like I'm talking to a friend."
I looked at him with teary eyes. "Me too, if I tell you mine you will tell me too. But I don't think you will understand it"
"Sure, I doubt that you would also understand mine."
I smiled and said "My wish is… I wish everything will go back to the way it used to be." As soon as I said those words here I go again crying.
Ryoma looked confused. 'The way it used to be?' he thought. "Now it's my turn. I wish I wasn't born in a wealthy family." he said seriously.
"Well…it looks like we've shared something we didn't expect." I said. And Ryoma nodded.
"You know… I really miss him that I can't help but to cry again." I honestly told him. I didn't know why but it seems like I could trust him.
"Hey you're crying again." Ryoma said.
"I'm sorry but I can't help it."
So Ryoma do what he doesn't expect himself to do. He hugged her. "Let it out." he said while caressing her smooth hair. He didn't know why the hell is he doing this? But one thing is in his mind. 'He can't stand seeing this girl in his arms crying.'
And so I let it out. I cried in front of a stranger whom I wasn't supposed to do but I don't care. I feel like I'm safe in his arms.
And that's how I spent my first night in Japan.
