CHAPTER 12
WELCOME BACK, RE – AUDITION
I'll be back to Japan today, Hey you! You have to explain to all your band, yes I know Sister.
I know sister, and in the first place I'm sure Taki sensei already explain to them, about our beloved father, I never thought he will opening a shop here at the same time on the second floor, is for instrument, and really on the second floor there's also for season lesson..
Flashback
At the first floor is an Italian food and also Asian food, when we first came here and sister and I whispering each other I'm sure this restaurant it's a nice and it's also, its Asian and Italian food, maybe it's from father's friend. Or we're just here to eat kumiko and I said we have a chief to cook for us in our rest house onee chan so what are we doing here?
Were here to help your father to run this restaurant, my dearest daughter. Mother you know this, and you two didn't tell to us. Your father trying to tell you guys about this, restaurant, but the two of you have been tried, so your father wants to surprise both of you….
What!? We came here for watching your performance father, and you said this restaurant is ours, Father really and father said this. It's not a simple restaurants, you see on the second floor is for seasonal lessons at the same time they can also buy instrument. Kumiko, Mamiko, I want to see both of you working and know how to run a shop. I'm sorry for not telling this. And especially you kumiko, you've been down. If it's about Maria, I know you guys been friend, and her parents been trusting you for their daughter own ego, so you better not let her down. Kumiko I know how you feel, but were just afraid to asking you, that's why where here to shaking off your depressing look...
Maybe, we have to work here for two weeks then.
End
Miss Kumiko, I'm here to get your luggage..
Thanks..
Kumiko, Mamiko, We have to go to the shop first.
Okay.
Time escape
We arrived at the shop, onee chan and I said I don't feel to going back, come on don't say that. But father, it's true it's been long years since we stayed here. You two staying here in Italy, Father, and Onee chan back at japan together with mother right? Oh yes, Sorry, maybe forcing you coming back to us...
It's not what you think father, you did not force me to going back to Japan... Come on guys that's been a long time ago. Kumiko I forgot to tell you Kumiko Aurora want to watch the audition of Kaori Nadaseko... so you better get her on her school. I don't think I can go there father.
Why not?
I will go, and get her in her class, in one condition
Onee chan thank you, but what condition it will be.
You better go with me.
Why?
You're asking me why? Do I have to explain it to you?
Fine, I have to go there so I can greet. The professor and also Bella and Maria, right?
Yes!
Let's go,
8 h 48 min
Time escape
Were here Isabella Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory of Music
Onee chan, really calling me Isabella? Why? Why, so suddenly. Calling my Italian name.
Kumiko.
Aurora
Let's go.
Where are you going?
Sara, Please Isabella is not for you?
Oh my, I heard you been stalking my girlfriend, so it's true?
If I know you will study here I will go here too seriously, stop stalking her?
Why Should I?
You're stalking her and did you see this ring and I show her.
So Un anello (A ring) and Un bracciale – (A bracelet) it's still not enough. Seriously,
Aurora, lets's go we have to go come back in Japan before the re audition
Mio amore where are going?
Maria, is that the girl really do love you? She's heating Aurora
SHUT UP!?
Maria, why? I really love you since where in our middle school, so why,
That girl said she doesn't love you, stop pretending you're dating.
WHO SAY TO YOU WHERE JUST PRETENDING!? KATLIN? ARIANNA? OR LUCY?
Isabella where are you going?
I'm just here for Aurora, maybe I should better explain to her. You see Aurora wants to watch the re audition in my school, It's about the audition where the two of our Trumpet player... How can I explain more...? It seems she's doesn't believe me, I know it's just a fake relationship, but seeing her face like it's in bad mood...
Kumiko, I'm not mad, I'm in the bad mood, yes, and I'm in the bad mood,
How did you know? Maria, that girl see through you.
I am her girlfriend, and we know each other so well. Right I-sa-be-ll-a~ chu
La guarderò ogni giorno, pensando a te. (I will stare at it every day and think of you.)
I mean I will stare this necklace and ring to think of you, even though you're not here every day I will always think of you, Isabella. So you better tell me.
I'm sorry for your lovey- dovely reunion, but we have to go now Maria,
Isabella, explain to me first
She already told you?
Can we go?
What!?
Right, Maria.
Kumiko, its better if we go to, it's unfair that only my sister will go.
What about all the concert band will go?
Sara, You crazy,
No I'm not...
All the leader of our concert band will go and watch the re – audition and I also want to see, this school, and why you suddenly rejected the school, They called you the goddesses of hand, even the universities wants to get you. Why did you rejected them..
Sara, If you're here to judge Isabella, then, go back to classroom..
Fine, call them, all our band leader..
But, it's better if you call the Trumpeter player right?
"These are the few ways we can practice humility:
To speak as little as possible of one's self.
To mind one's own business.
Not to want to manage other people's affairs.
To avoid curiosity.
To accept contradictions and correction cheerfully.
To pass over the mistakes of others.
To accept insults and injuries.
To accept being slighted, forgotten and disliked.
To be kind and gentle even under provocation.
Never to stand on one's dignity.
To choose always the hardest."
I'm I will call them...
But, remember this, Oumae san, you cannot hide the fact that you're not an ordinary high school girl...
I know, so what?
I already txt them... You know that I'm also a part of concert a band leader right?
Time past
1:04:22 PM Japan Time
I hope Kumiko will be here soon.
Maybe things will be awkward because I tell that to her
I said bad words and I also curse her.
What should I do?
Cring….
Riiinnggg…
Kumiko?
What should I do? I'm panicking right now Kumiko, Kumiko is calling.
Ahem! Reina Kousaka, Relax, Relax… take a deep breathe… Inhale, exhale.
Hello, Kumiko...
Oh Hi, Reina, I have to tell you something...
Oh my, what she wants to tell me, what should I do? What to do?
What is it?
You see were already here at japan, But I can go to your audition today..
What!? W-why?
I'm sorry, you see its traffic,
KUMIKO?
Yes?
YOU'RE NOT HER?
You scared me to death right now Kousaka Reina san..
It's just you, Bella.
Oh my you seems disappointed?
Of course, I'm disappointed? Why she always, is she always teasing everyone on the band before. Maybe I should ask about this to kumiko.
L'amore e cieco( Love is blind)
Huh?
Nothing, we will coming there
Bye
Bye
L'amore e cieco what does it mean?
Next day
Good morning.
Kyaahhh…
What was that for, Kousaka San?
When I turn, I saw Bella wearing… Where did you get our school uniform?
I borrowed this uniform to kumiko...
Wait? What are you doing here?
Bella, Kumiko tell us to wait to her right?
Serena...

Oh my, Bella, Did I Say it was you, Miss Kousaka san, did I say her name? Did you hear her name Miss Kousaka san?
Bella, I did not hear your name?
Is it obvious, she was talking about me?
This two sure are close so if she also a part of the concert band and a band leader did that means she's also good. Is she an old classmate's of kumiko or she's a part of Bella concert band.

Bella did you hear it? You mean the trumpet?

Senpai you're close.
You're close.
What do you think?
Eeeehhhhh…
What do you think about her sound?
I think she sounds good.
It sounds really good.
It's clean and loud. I-I think she's fit to play the solo.
Oppss…I'm sorry senpai, I didn't want to say it, I'm truly sorry.
You're right. How could a first year sound like that?
Senpai are you also referring at me too?
It isn't fair.
Kumiko..
Isabella, I thought you're going to her. I'll wait you here..
Thanks
What's up?
I was wondering if you've had lunch already.
Kumiko.
Yes,
Kumiko, sorry, for saying bad words and curse words to you.
It's already.
Are you already had a lunch
Yeah
So, I was thinking of having lunch with you.
Its fine, I already ate with Kaori senpai and the others.
Okay.
Are you all right?
Yeah.
Kumiko, Kaori senpai was really considerate.
The way she said to me
Either way, well still be playing together in the competition as the Kitauji high school concert band, let's put on a good performance.
Kaori senpai's is a good person.
Yeah, that's what makes things a bit hard.
Huh.
Never mind.
I really want ask, kumiko about her business in Italy,
And what's that Necklace hanging. It's a note? Kumiko you're hiding your true identity.
I want to know about you, I really do love to know, two weeks without you on myside I feel my two feet stayed on the ground for so long..
Goodbye, see you at the audition..
Wait!?
Reina.. You're hurting my wrist you know.
I'm sorry Kumiko..
It's okay, I have to go now, and my old concert band is here,
(Back hug)
Reina…
Kumiko... Can you stay here a little bit?
Sorry Reina, But I need to go now.
Why she always have to do that, she's been more and more different than she used to be.
I hope you will stop hugging someone Reina. Maybe next time you do it. I don't know, if I can forgive you. Knowing that you still have a feeling our teacher. I still you to know more about your feeling, before you tell me. Because that hug you just give it to me, it's a hug that wants to ask more question, I face that, even if it's no reaction a poker face. And the face only me know? Or maybe Taki sensei also know. What will be the other member will say, I hope they're will not ask me anymore.. This next week, I don't know if I'm still here.
Isabella. I know it will be hard. But you have to tell them, you have a competition this coming next week, and also a week you guys will play at the Kansai, Right?
You see one of the saxophone player have an entrance exam? And ended up in the situation she is right now even Haruka senpai. Do you think, Maria? I'm much more selfish knowing the day I will tell them, what will be there reaction, disappointed look? A confused look, Or maybe worst.
I love you, not because of what you have, but because of what I feel... I care for you, not because you need care but because I want to... I'm always here for you, not because I want you to be with me but because I want to be with you..! And there are only four words that so much better than I love you, and those words are I'm here for you.
I know, Isabella, I know no matter what your decision is together with Aurora and Bella including me, we will always, always be here for you. You understand that right?
Thank you so much.
Let's go.
Aurora…
Sister
Hey! What kind of face your showing?
All of you know, maybe except Sara.
Katlin, I know you know her more than us
You know kumiko, more than us.
For you, what do you think she will choose?
I will tell you, when she's not here?
You will going to tell to her? Right
What do you mean?
Lucy, Arianna. Sara doesn't know anything. You know. When you're in pain, don't fight it, you'll just get exhausted. Remember what Shakespeare said, Feel the pain until it hurts no more.
Lucy, Arianna even the other member here.. You already know where she gets that terrible personality of her right? It's all your fault why she get it, and why she still have a distance herself with you guys right?
Aurora, Bella I know she doesn't open ups but, eventually she will, that's how she is. Hiding the girl she used to be, and showing the good girl side of her. But we know her more than anyone else so, please just don't say anymore. Kumiko is Kumiko. No matter what will the other member will say, we have to always stay by her side?
What they will say, I should tell to Taki sensei first, I have to tell to them, really staying here for more week, I don't know, but I should to go back, it's a competition that I've been practicing for almost a year, and I also don't have a time to practice, I also adjusting my Piano lesson and my concert band.
This year will be my last chance, since I chose for my band at that time, but now I need to choose and I really want to join this competition.
Kumiko...

Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreamin' of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray
Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I pray
I could breakaway
I'll spread my wings, and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Want to feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get on board a fast train
Travel on a jet plane
Faraway
And breakaway
I'll spread my wings, and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
I won't forget all the ones that I love
I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging 'round revolvin' doors
Maybe I don't know where they take me
But gotta keep movin' on
Movin' on
Fly away
Breakaway
I'll spread my wings, and I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Breakaway
Breakaway
Next morning
I came early in morning, to talk to Taki sensei.
But I hear someone at the empty room

Kumiko… Would you be upset if I lose?
Reina…
I would. I would. I don't exactly what Yoshikawa senpai say to her?
Why.
You're going to become special, aren't you?
Right? Kumiko was right I want to become special.
You're different from the others. You're different from everyone else.
You can't let yourself be influence by others.
THAT'S STUPID.
Kumiko is mad.. But.. If I win now. I'll be a villain.
That's fine.
I'll be a villain with you, when that happens, you're better than Kaori senpai.
I'll tell them it ought to be you to play the solo. I'll tell them.
Hearing kumiko, saying it.. I feel a butterflies at my stomach.
I want to hear more, what else you will tell me, Kumiko.
But I should not jump to conclusion. But I need to learn more about this feelings.
Kumiko was right.
Really? What else you're going to tell me. I really need more to know
Probably.
Really, why you said probably are you mocking me, Kumiko…
You sure are an awful person.
I should better tease her a little bit, I don't know what's is the necklace and the ring she's always wearing. I want to know, is she? Engage to Shuuichi, but she told me they're not dating at all. So who would it be?
I came close to her. And I say this to her I know it's my selfishness but I still want to tell her
Kumiko, will you stay with me?
Yeah.
You won't abandon me?
If I do, you can hate me. And you can kill me.
I'll actually kill you.
You probably would, Reina.
She closed her eyes, Kumiko close her eyes.
When she closed her eyes, I wanted to kiss her.
But I hesitate, because of the ring she's been wearing since she came back here...
I'm prepared for that.
This is a confession of love, after all.
Did I just hear, confession of love, I heard it right?
I smile to her. Knowing that we have same,
Maybe the ring and necklace is just giving by Midori and Hazuki.
Reina...
What should I do I'm here to tell her, about the competition is it really the time.
What should I do? I have to tell her.
Reina. I have to tell something really important.
It's Fine you can tell me?
But this is really important.
It's fine. I never had any intention of losing, in the first place.
Maybe I can't tell to her? I really shouldn't have not telling her right Maria.
Oh my, you know I was here.
So, what should you do?
I don't know, maybe, Asuka senpai and the other brass section will tell to her?
Let's go.
"I survived by keeping my emotions in check – by maintaining my composure and tucking it all away. I managed to stay under the radar, skating through school without anyone truly remembering I was here. My teachers acknowledged my academic successes and my coaches depended upon my athletic abilities, but I wasn't important enough to make a recognizable social contribution. I was easily forgettable. That's what I counted on."
―Rebecca Donovan,Reason to Breathe
Are you okay, Maria?
"Never hide yourself! When you say something, don't be in the shadow; let everyone see you! Whatever you say always put your name under it! Be courageous enough not to use any mask; don't forget that hiding among the bushes is the affair of the cowards! Let the Sun shines on your face and everyman see you!"
Maria?
Did you say something, kumiko?
I said Are you Okay.

"I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death."

"There is neither happiness nor misery in the world; there is only the comparison of one state with another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness. We must have felt what it is to die, Morrel, that we may appreciate the enjoyments of life.
" Live, then, and be happy, beloved children of my heart, and never forget, that until the day God will deign to reveal the future to man, all human wisdom is contained in these two words, 'Wait and Hope."
