Life is lovely, life is beautiful and life is really, really cruel. Kuroko Tetsuna thinks she knows that better than she has any rights to.

The fact that they see each other from time to time doesn't help at all. Every time she sees him, whether it's just a glimpse of his dark blue hair or look at him when he doesn't notice, she can't help but recall when they were in their first and second year at middle school: when everything was easy and simple and bright (Aomine-kun has always been so bright); all she had to worry about was when they could play basketball together and how many times their fists met. His laughs were tinged with happiness, and there's joy hidden behind her smiles.

(She wants to live like those times, someday in distant future, when Seirin is her home and Aomine-kun is one of the members, and he and Kagami-kun will bicker everyday while she just watches and doesn't bother to hide that she's rolling her eyes…)

(Oh, little girl, someday never comes.)

And then everything changed, he became unbeatable, his light brighter and brighter until it devoured her shadow, and suddenly, nothing was the same, and her world was spinning faster and faster, whirling around until it made her dizzy. There are ghost tangled in her limps, there's nothingness behind her eyes.

She couldn't handle it, so she ran away.

She left him. She just left.

Suddenly, her smile was tingled with regret.

-:-

"Let's write a wish on a paper and"
"Send it out to sea in a bottle"
"If it doesn't break, then surely there"
"Will be a wish granted"
