The Promise
I was in the hallway heading toward the secret garden. I never knew someone other than me and My Lady know about this garden. I took the letter out of my left pocket. Then read it again.
Meet me at the Cantarella garden
Please,
…
Please? I guess he or she is really polite. The name looks like it has been cut to 2 pieces I don't know why my feet is bringing me here. I think curiosity bring me here. I put the letter in my left pocket and exchange it with a simple key look-like clover. I search for the key hand lock. It was almost unseen because of the plants, flowers even weeds. Someone is inside. A sweet voice speaks.
"Note: Password" from the voice I can tell that she is a girl. I don't know where the voice is coming from.
"Cantarella" I answered. It is the code in order to get in. The door opens inside wait a girl. I went in. I can't see her very clearly. She is wearing a cloak, a black one. "Who are you?"
"You came" she said. "Thank you" she is running toward… me? I fell on my back. She is hugging me. The cloak is loose. I see her. A honey blond hair and the azure eyes she is…
"My Lady! What? Why?" My Lady revealed herself. My face is shocked and my head is filling itself with question. Then I see My Lady took a deep breath.
"I know you are shocked. But at least accompany me for tonight? Before I get stuck with someone who is not fun?" My Lady said. Of course, that explains the blank face earlier. It looks like My Lady can only have one last day with someone before My Lady is going to be rare to see. I knocked my sense. I stare at My Lady blue azure eyes it was filled with hope.
"Okay. It was a longing until I can't serve My Lady her favorite snack now" I said bowing. I stand straight and give My Lady a smile. I almost blush, when I see My Lady face a little red. "Well, now I guess My Lady want to play the swing first" I said stretching a hand to My Lady.
"I swore if you read my mind again, I'll be canceling this" My Lady gave me a serious tone. I gave her a faint smile and push her onto the swing. It's 1 hour before midnight.
"I always know that clover fits perfectly on you, Len!" My Lady said cheerfully. Handing a clover to my right hand. "Len, promise to this clover and me. That you will protect me even when we will rarely see each other, promise?" My Lady asked again My Lady eyes is filled with hope. I took the clover and squeezed it.
"I, Len the servant of Kagamine Company, promise to this clover and My Lady that I will protect My Lady even when we will rarely see each other" I said with a serious and fun tone. My Lady smiled in relieved. I put the clover inside my pocket. I see My Lady yawned. "Tired?" I asked. My Lady nodded. I took My Lady hand and led her outside the secret garden.
I see my watch it's been 7 hours and 30 more minutes it's midnight, tomorrow.
"30 minutes, My Lady will rarely see me and have a new bodyguard. I recommended we get back." I said, regretting what I said.
"30 more minutes before hell come" My Lady said. I giggled. The hand that I hold, I hold it tighter. Walking toward My Lady bedroom. I started singing.
"You are my princess. I can only be your servant. Adult selfish reasons divided, a queen and her servant. If it's in order to protect you just for that. I'll become an evil to protect you from harm" As I was singing. Something cold runs into my hand. It was a tear, My Lady tears.
"I don't want it. I like your snacks. Your and only yours, please!" My Lady said. I give her a faint smile. We arrived in front of My Lady bedroom. I bend on my knees and kiss My Lady hand. I get up and bowed down.
"Please, bear with it from now." I said trying to comfort My Lady. My Lady hadn't stop crying but I turn around and started walking away.
"Then, please the last for today. Just tucked me to bed?" My Lady voice stopped my walk. I turn around and give her a smile.
"Your wish is my command" I reply. Opening the door. Bowed down. Signaling for My Lady to go in first. My Lady walked in. As My Lady changed to My Lady nightgown, I prepared My Lady bed.
"Thank you, Len" My Lady cheered herself up. Coming out with a yellow nightgown that looks perfect on her. My heart is beating fast. I even notice my face is turning red.
"Your welcome, My Lady" I reply.
"Will you sing me a lullaby, Len?" My Lady asked. It's clear I'm red. I think over and started singing. A song called 'Soundless Voice' I feels like a tears is tanking in my eyes.
At night when silence
Envelops the town
It is raining white (snow)
I hold up my palms
The snow melts as soon as I touched it
A transient piece of life
Snow accumulates without a sound
Like light
You smile as you gathered it
Hey, how do I sound?
Even if I reply, you
Cannot hear anymore
Say you're in pain
Say you're lonely
I'll find you
Wherever you are...
Don't leave me behind, aren't we always
Together as one?
I feel like a tear in my eyes.
As the snow becomes thicker
You gradually fade away
I can't do anything but embrace you
I wish, just one more time
To hear your voice
One more time, just one more time...
Say my name...
From your unfocused, blank eyes
A drop appeared
In this gray world
Everything has stopped
Except for the quietly falling snow
You are becoming cold
Your voice has not come back
We've given up understanding each other
Hear my voice, smile for me once more
I have ran out of tears
I cannot
Melt you...
If possible, my voice
Take it all away
And give it to the person dear to me
If I'll be in a world alone
Without you
Just...
Take me away
With you
I love you, even that
Cannot be said
Our era
Is about to close
Forever
Even if I shout, I can't get
You or your voice back
To the falling snow
Please don't stop falling
Take me away with her
Everything transient, my voice, my life
Erase all of them
Until all is white...
When I done something touch my hand. My Lady hasn't sleep.
"You have a really nice and cool voice, I never noticed" My Lady praised me. "I guess I can try" My Lady said. My Lady closed her eyes and started singing. A song called 'Proof of Life' a duet song so I sing along in the middle.
The wind's voice tells me of winter
My body shivers as I listen
You're right next to me
Your breath seems white and cold
Life has withered away, too, this year
Before long, I've grown impatient for spring's arrival
While listening to the chains of life
Continuing to bud in the light
My fate continues to rot away
I understand, but I remain strong
I want to breathe, I want to sing
It would be good if I can leave something behind
That says I have lived… a proof of my life
I don't want to sing a sad song
Hey, I'm begging you, right now my only wish
Is to laugh next to you
I want to sing a gentle song
Listening to the song waiting for my entrance, I realized I don't want to be parted with My Lady, ever.
Several winters passed by
I finally realized this feeling
I can't say it out loud but
Our hearts are always connected, right?
I started singing with My Lady.
It's dark, I can't see anything…
I can't hear anything…
It's scary… It's painful…
It's lonely…
While everything in me
Continues to disappear
Your smiling face
Still lingers…
You are singing a gentle song, right?
Even though we're wrapped up in this world of loneliness
I'm always beside you, don't forget
You are never alone
I'm not lonely because you're here
You embrace with your warm hands
I can't hear you, but I understand
The hands that you hold me said
My tears are fighting with me but I kept singing.
"I love you"
I do not want to sing a sad song
Hey, I'm begging you, my only wish right now
Is to laugh with you
I want to sing a gentle song
I want to dedicate it to you, a song of parting
In my last moment, I want to tell you…thank you
My Lady ends the song. There was a long silence. I look at my watch, 2 more minutes it's tomorrow. A hand that holds mine tight is now loose. I see My Lady face for the last time and touch her hair. I let go of her. I hum a song.
"You are my princess. I can only be your servant. Adult selfish reasons divided, a queen and her servant. If it's in order to protect you just for that. I'll become an evil to protect you from harm" As I'm done singing, I tiptoed outside 'I love you so much, My Lady' I said in my mind.
"I, … good night, My Lady." I said. My body doesn't want to leave but my mind disagreed. I took the clover out of my pocket.
"Everyone has fallen asleep, I guess," I said as I walk through the hallway. The clover that I hold, it means a lot to me now. I walked in my room. I looked at the bottle of rose.
"WeRRa Svey Jhno Jhno" I sing.
"Hello again, I miss you. I miss you" As I sing tears come out of my eyes. I squeezed the clover.
I vowed, "I will keep the promise"
Hy, I need a comment about this story. It's a little bit cheesy isn't it? Well, R&R, please! The song 'Hello Again' that is not the meaning! I just made it up! So, please don't be mad at me! Bye! thanks for reading!
