Chapter Five
They're Already Know
Kumiko having a conversation with Daniel
Hello, how things going in your new school Ku chan.
It's better than before.
Huh!
Ah sorry I mean I'm fine.
And also I want to register to the concert band again.
That so like you.
Wait if you entered the concert band again, is it okay if they know who you are.
Maybe, it doesn't matter I know it's for my own ego so if I will not register I will regret soon so I should have to entered.
Are they good? Ku chan
Nope but I think they will improve since the new teacher is good.
So are you okay if they know.
They know what, they want to know.
It seems sooner or later they will find out who you are.
Actually, someone's there seems know who I am, but she's not sure so. It's fine.
Daniel, it's a little more exaggerated than me.
I'm not being an exaggerated person and if someone will find out that one of the celebrity, I ,mean famous musician join to their band, what would they be look like.
You know what stop with the negative vibes please.
Yes, do you think that's what I'm going to tell you, of course not Ku chan~
Daniel I have to start the me in the past is the past this is me the present Kumiko, no one know who I am.
Of course they're also free to judge Oumae Kumiko, they're free have a confuse and saying bad things about me.
Ku chan~
But you know what to be honest. Emotionally, I'm done. Mentally, I'm drained, spiritually I feel dead, and physically I smile.
Ku chan~
If I met them again,
I'm sure that there will be a time,
For us to met again
And maybe I can also forgive them to what they've done to me.
Ku chan~ Sorry bothering you and you say will soon will come.
Ku chan~ Do everything without complaining and arguing, so that no one can criticize you.
Dear past thank you for all the lessons
Dear future I'm ready.
Ku chan~ you know, by doing what you love, you inspire and awaken the heart of the others
Thanks Daniel I have to go now
See you Ku chan.
Seriously he always uses Ku chan again.

No particular reason.
No particular reason?

Whispering I search in internet what you said and you know what I found out?
Since the leader of the euphonium is here, why don't you go and grab your favorite instrument.

I curse myself for saying those words...
Asuka senpai
I'm not being so mean and I said sorry when I say those words to you.
I just want to try other instrument.
Kumiko could please stop being so mean to our senpai.
Stupid Shuuchi,
Stupid.
What is there relationship I've never been good at talking to a guy so I don't know what his relationship to Oumae san Reina stop thinking about it the weird thing about Oumae San was her accent. Why she speaks and why her dialect is weird she seems like she's not Japanese. But her look is like Japanese. I wonder why. And she also has a similar look of the winner of the champion in France last year.
Reina you have stopped thinking?
Why should she choose this school, hard to imagine especially why that girl will go here our school when there's a lot of nice and good school there?
I want to ask her why she also has the same surname of Taki sensei mentor Kentaro Oumae.
Why?
Kumiko earth Kumiko.
Oumae chan.
Kumiko are you okay
Huh!
Ah it's just that I saw the piano over there.
I never saw that piano when we came here to watch the rehearsal.
Oumae chan that piano is there when came here.
Do you want to play the piano Oumae chan
Asuka senpai I want to play the piano.
I want to ask you?
What is it?
Can you say tell me what is you said when you, kawashima san and katou san.
What did oumae san said to Tanaka senpai, she's serious
I'm curious and I want to know.
Reina stop this. It's not my business and was not close at all.
But saying those words Asuka senpai it's embarrassing to say it.
Embarrassing
Then you can play the piano
Asauka sanpai you so mean?
Fine, then I will say
Kumiko did you say something to Tanaka senpai.
It's just I said something that I say it out loud.
Then are you going to say it to me again.
Hai degli occhi bellisimi. (A/N You have a beautiful eyes)
Ciao, Bella (A/NHello, Beautiful)
Sei pui bella di un angelo, che ne dici di accompagnami a cena stasera? (A/N You're more beautiful than an angel, what do you say about joining me for dinner tonight?)
Wow her accent I just hear it, but why when I heard it I feel jealously towards Tanaka senpai
Maybe because she's the first person who hear her lovely voice..
How I wish I'm the first person who hear it.
Asuka senpai I said it so can I play the piano?
Nope.
Why?
Translate it to us.
But, I can't
Then you can't play..
You said
What I said?
That you research in internet.
Yes, I research it it's better if I can hear you say it.
(A/N she said it in whisper.)
Hai degli occhi bellisimi. Means you have a beautiful eyes
Ciao, Bella means Hello, Beautiful
Sei pui bella di un angelo, che ne dici di accompagnami a cena stasera? Means you're more beautiful than an angel, what do you say about joining me for dinner tonight?
Oumae chan~ said I did not here it.
I said
Hai degli occhi bellisimi. Means you have a beautiful eyes
Ciao, Bella means Hello, Beautiful
Sei pui bella di un angelo, che ne dici di accompagnami a cena stasera? Means you're more beautiful than an angel, what do you say about joining me for dinner tonight?
This time I said it and with meaning of it
So please let me play the piano now
So what's what Tanaka senpai I'm jealous that she said it to Tanaka senpai, But Why?
Asuka Senpai?

Why you want to play the piano?
What is it this time?
Haruka let her play the piano
Why?

Can you let me play the piano or not.
Of course right Haruka.
Why she wants to play the piano the way she look she didn't play a piano before
Hey it Okays senpai she can play.
Is it okay?
It's okay.
Right Haruka.
But what if she can play.
Senpai its okay Kumiko can play Piano. Because she's a daughter of Mr. Ke... Shhh...
Can you stop talking about that?
Here in school...
Ke?
Kentucky?
Ken?
It's okay if they don't want too.
Fine but just once.
Thank you so much senpai.😍😍
She's happy that she can play a piano really just like a kid. Whatever I have to try to play my trumpet now.
When I'm about to try the trumpet.
I hear someone playing and also her voice too.
When all the band just staring at her while she's singing at the same time...
While I'm on my position playing the piece ready to play my favorite song.
"A Thousand Years"
Heart beats fast
Colours and promises How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone,
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow.
One step closer
[Chorus:] I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid.
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this
One step closer
[Chorus:]
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid.
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
One step closer One step closer
[Chorus:]
I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid. I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
Kumiko.
That's a good song.
Oumae chan can you play another song
Eh... I'm sorry, but that's enough for today.
Then can we request tomorrow.
I'm sorry but I can't Senpai
please don't push her, if she don't want to play.
she don't want.
Why?
Why?
Why?
Fine, just for today.
Wait then why you choose different instrument.
You play just like "The Goddess of Pianist" or "Goddess of Hand"
Really she's good to when she play another song is it me or the other. Reina your brain been deceiving you she could be. But the way she play she's seems professional than Taki sensei been tutoring me since my middle school. Maybe I should ask Tsukamoto Kun about her. Wait did I just heard Nadasekosenpai saying she play just like "the goddess of pianist"
Maybe I should ask Tsukamoto kun
I'm about to go to were Tsukamoto kun were when suddenly someone scream.
KUMIKO ARE YOU THE DAUHTER OF MR. KENTARO OUMAE.
EHHH...
KAWASHIMA ARE YOU SERIOUS.
TSUKAMOTO KUN IS IT TRUE.
senpai yes it's true.
When Tsukamoto kun said it I was dumped of his comment and our senpai say this in union.
What!? But! Why? She.. Choose... Our ...school...
Oumae chan...
Wow seeing the real thing is different than seeing her o TV.
I have no other choose but to say this
You know that I was your big fan.
Eh.
You're a fans of Oumae san Kaori Sanpai
Yes I'm a fan of yours it's like "by doing what you love, you inspire and awaken the heart of the others"
Nedeshiko senpai
Yes she's a fan of yours Oumae chan.
Why?
Eh... Oumae chan what do you mean Why?
Why me.
When I saw you playing I was inspire by you. As the quotes say "by doing what you love, you inspire and awaken the heart of the others "
You guys not mad.
No were not mad.
Why should we mad at you you've never done anything that make us mad is there a reason.
Yes, there is.
Kumiko..
I have to go now..
Oumae san, why you said those word I want to know I want to ask her because I should have to ask her. I'm about to go when I saw Tsukamoto Kun stop Oumae San.
Are you going to run away again Kumiko.
I'm not running.
Your running who do you think I am I'm not someone else! I'm your childhood friend you know how much I want to go to Italy at the time, but I can since our school also has a competition I want to comfort you and said everything going to be alright. But I can.
Shuuchi.. I've never know how much your suffering..
That's why please tell to them tell your friend tell to us what happen in your middle school in Italy.
You see there's no one will go to judge you.
So please don't run away Kumiko.
And after Tsukamoto Kun said it.
All our senpai especially Tanaka senpai the way she tease them makes my heart ache... But who am I what is this feeling.
I will tell this to all you
Then she tells her pass.
After a moment of silent..
And we heard her voice again
You know guys I've never said this story to others.
Nothing will change even though you try to be nice to them
Sometimes I regret being nice,
Apologizing when I didn't do anything wrong,
And for making unworthy people priority in my life.
It's not my fault if my father is famous musician.
Someone said this to one of my senior in my old school
"Don't ever mistake my silence for ignorance
My calmness for acceptance
And my kindness for weakness"
And someone confess to you saying she like you.
And seeing her again I want to stop this stupid relationship that you know its forbidden love
Kumiko
Kumiko
Oumae chan~
I've never know how much she suffer at her old school
You're suffering so much Oumae san.
That's why no matter what happen I don't want to fall in love.
Because if I'm beginning to trusting them
It's scaring me.
Because I'm giving them a new ways to hurt me again
Every single day
What a strange feelings is it
Knowing that someday I will trust to fall in love again...
Is it okay to fall in love again, Senpai.
Oumae chan~
Asuka senpai.
Kumiko.
Were staying silent.
Time escape
Reina thought: After she tells us her story I was mad I want to punch the face of the person who traumatized Oumae san.
Kumiko Thought I thought telling them is the best When I'm about to lift my head I saw some of them are crying some them looks like they want to punch someone.
After the entire story I tell about them some of them asking my autograph some of them trying to talk me as normal as possible.
Time escape
Now I'm on the way home.
As usual talking about concert band Saying to them my pass..
They all shocked...
I'm about to sleep when someone call
Conversation to Aurora and Bella
I press the accept button..
