The Song of the Sakura Tree – 8 – Story

I woke as much as the songs of birds chirping outside my window. The sun was just showing and I breathed. I smiled to myself, “This is going to be a fantastic day.” I got up from my bed and flexed my muscles a bit. Following that I took a bath and got ready for school. Ahead of I went out, I got a message from my older brother.
It said,

“Hey, Arika-chan, my wife and I are gonna drop by later. We just need to see how you will be performing, okay? Bye!”

I grinned even more. This really is going to be a great day. I saw another text message as I flipped via the subsequent one. It was from Raiden. OMG! What is he going to say? I opened it instantly and he told me,

“Ohayou, Arika- chan! Would you mind if we go to school together right now? I?ll meet you in the park by 6:15. Hope to see you soon! Bye!”

I flustered at the content material and I read it thrice to make confident I wasn?t imagining and it was accurate. I looked at my watch and it was already 6:00! 15 freaking minutes! Gotta dash! I rapidly grabbed my points and sped to the door. I locked it and ran to the park. And due to the fact I was excellent at running, I got there by 6:10! I was just on time!

I looked about the park and I immediately spotted Raiden because of his hair. He was sitting on a see- saw and was seeking far distant, as if something were on his mind. I walked to him and put my hands on his eyes to hide myself.

“Who am I?” I said, changing my voice hysterically.

He laughed and held my hands. “Is this Arika- chan?”

I shook my head and sneered. Then I released my hands to let him see. He spun about and smiled at me, “Arika- chan, ne? You?re generating fun of me!” I giggled heartily and hugged him.

“Thanks for making me pleased, Raiden- kun.” He cuddled me with his big hands even though supporting me with his broad shoulders and then patted my head. “You?re welcome, Arika- chan. That?s what buddies are for.”

I chuckled and moved somewhat away from him to say, “Let?s go. We might be late for school.” He put me down and held my hand as we went our approach to school.
The classroom of II-A was babbling about gossips and giggling with funny jokes when the day had started. Yuzora was freaking out as Kimiko told her the terrible news of Hiro- senpai creating out with Akiko- senpai. “YOU HAVE GOT TO BE FREAKING KIDDING ME, KIMIKO- CHAN!” She stomped her feet. “ARE YOU Really Sure IT HAPPENED?!” Kimiko adjusted her glasses and spoke, “It is accurate, Yuzora- chan. The other years are also talking about it.”

She freaked out some more and shouted, “WHAT ARE WE GOING TO TELL, ARIKA?!?! WHAT?! WHAT?!” Luckily, Hinatahi and Kiro entered the scene and helped Kimiko calm the angry spirits of Yuzora down. When she did, her voice croaked because of tears when she stated, “What? a-are w-we going t-to do?”

Hinatahi sighed, “We just have to tell her the truth.” Kimiko let out a breath and said, “She?s proper. We can?t hide the truth.” Kiro patted both girls on the head and suggested, “Why don?t we comfort her when she cries?” The 3 girls nodded and Yuzora stood up. Hinatahi grinned at Kiro and he smiled back at her tenderly.

“Hey, guys!” I referred to as out. Kiro, Hinatahi, Kimiko, and Yuzora tried to greet me happily. My greatest friends almost crushed me in one hug. “Hey, hey, guys! You?re all so heavy! Haha!” I laughed. “Are you guys sick or some thing?” My pals released me from their bear hugs and sighed.

Hinatahi stated, “Well, there?s absolutely nothing wrong.” She and the others looked at each other. Hmmm? I sense one thing deep. “We just want to tell you something about Hiro and-” She was cut off by the freaking bell. We all groaned as we went to our seats. Hinatahi tapped me on the back and told me, “We?ll just let you know later.”

I nodded and faced the front to listen to my boring teacher?s lecture about history. I took notes on some intriguing parts but a lot of the time, I was just thinking about Raiden and what my friends are going to tell me later about Hiro. I don?t know why they acted strangely, but I could genuinely feel that there?s one thing going on.

After an hour and so of eternity, we went straight to the topmost floor whilst carrying our lunches. I just ate some onigiri ?trigger my stomach was quite hungry about what my friends desire to speak about-so hungry it wants to eat it. Now.

When we finished eating our food, I faced them and I could tell that they were genuinely frustrated or maybe even depressed. I tried to smile to ensure that it would ease their loads and it seemed to work because Kimiko started talking.

“Ano, Arika-chan, about whilst ago,” she stated. “We identified out some thing about Hiro and Akiko.”

My eyes widened with eagerness. “What is it about them, now?” I asked casually. Kimiko gazed at Yuzora and Hinatahi. Hinatahi nodded. Yuzora looked pained. Kimiko gazed back at me and breathed for five seconds ahead of she stated essentially the most shocking news I by no means wanted to hear:

“They made out with one another? on the infirmary. There was a video and now, all the individuals are talking about it.”

I created confident I was breathing and I blinked my eyes to hide my tears. We were silent for five freaking minutes. Just then, we heard big footsteps behind us. We looked behind to see who it was, but we had been blinded by the sunlight.

The shadow formed a guy and we knew it was a boy. He was giggling a silent laugh. “So, you?re talking about that, eh?” A soothing voice said. As he came nearer, we instantly knew it was Yamazaki Soichiro. We knew it was him since he wore glasses and has the badge for the Student Council Vice President.

We rubbed our sore eyes to ease our pain and stood up. Yuzora came in front all of us and spoke for us, “What do you desire, Yamazaki- senpai?” He grinned evilly and stated, “I admire your courage to speak, Fujiko Yuzora- san, but I would just like to warn all of you to mind your own organization.” Yuzora was baffled and shouted angrily, “MIND Your own FREAKING Company, SENPAI! WE Had been JUST TELLING OUR FRIEND THE TRUTH!”

Soichiro chuckled and came towards Yuzora. It made Yuzora step back and he cornered her to the wall. Yuzora was taken aback by this and she located it hard to speak. Yamazaki took some strand of Yuzora?s hair and caressed it against his skin. Then, he looked back at her. “You?re gorgeous, Yuzora- san, that?s why you shouldn?t be angry or else it is going to make you look ugly.”

Yuzora blushed at this but remained persistent. “What do you want from us, Yamazaki- senpai?” She muttered under her breath. Soichiro grinned and released her. He walked to us but stopped within the middle. “Simple.” He stated, searching at us and then at Yuzora. “Keep quiet in the event you don?t want to be scratched by her cats.”

It was not just a warning, but a direction. “Get us some proof, Yamazaki- senpai,” Kimiko greeted her teeth. Soichiro turned to Kimiko and adjusted his glasses. “Well, I?ve heard that somebody tried to snatch your jewelry box, ne?” Kimiko was shocked and she shouted, “How did you know that?”

Soichiro tapped his shoulder and took a tiny notebook from his pocket. “Resources,” he smiled. “Somebody watches you and your friends.” We all gasped with awe and we quickly thought concerning the blonde haired girl. He was right. He tapped his shoes and stated, “Well, it appears that I?ve given you considerably of my time, I ought to be off.” He headed for the door and stopped to say, “Be cautious about who you’re talking to, specially freshmen and juniors.”

He took 1 last appear at Yuzora. Yuzora was looking half embarrassed and half immersed in thoughts. He chuckled and whispered, “Cute.” Then he went out and closed the door.

We had been all engrossed with all the details Soichiro gave and all of the items that had just happened. It took us all a moment before we could speak. But the 1 who broke the silence was? me. Tiny tears fell from my cheeks along with the moment it fell, I ran to the infirmary, leaving them behind. I swear I could not take this. It hurts? a good deal. I heard my Hinatahi cry for my name, but I didn?t stop. I don?t want them to see my tears.

Even although I don?t adore him anymore, although I?ve hated him now, although? I still loved him! That freaking idiot! I ran and ran towards the infirmary and didn?t stop until I bumped on somebody. I cried on that person and I only stopped when he patted my head and hugged me. He whispered my name.

“Arika?” a gentle and angelic voice stated.

I know that voice! Raiden- kun! I looked up at him and he smiled at me. “What?s the matter? Did somebody hurt you?” I didn?t answer and only cuddled myself to his embrace. “Please take my pain away. It hurts too much.” I cried.

“What precisely is your discomfort?” He asked, coolly. “I hate him, I hate him, I HATE HIM!” I shouted and far more tears flooded down my cheeks. “It?s Hiro, isn?t it?” He said, irritated. I gazed up at him. I was surprised. How had he known? “How did you know?” I asked. “I hear them.” He pointed in the babbling class. “In truth, I hear them all of the time and I? don?t.. like.. it.”

I squeezed his hand and said, “If you? don?t like it, please take that freaking discomfort away.” I blushed. “It?s disgusting.” To my awe, he lifted me out of the school and we each ran away. When I was tired, he carried me on his back and I hugged him tightly to ensure that I wouldn?t fall.

As we reached my house, he put me down and he looked at me long-Long sufficient to hypnotize me into his gorgeous eyes. “I don?t like it,” he muttered. “So, is it okay to take your discomfort away my way?” I just said, “Please take that discomfort? away.”

He did.

In a kiss.

He touched my lips to put it away.

I enjoy him.

I adore Raiden-kun.

Raiden?

Today, indeed, was a amazing day.
