Part 2: Dreams of The Past
When Senpai was walking down the hallway, Someone had chased after her, Realising something that I didn't and did something that I couldn't.
He stopped senpai on the staircase and asked "Senpai, Could we talk for a bit? "
"Nakamura...?" Senpai Mumbled and agreed to listen to his words. Then Nakamura lead Senpai to the rooftop
[On the rooftop, Their Legendary Conversation Begins]
Near the rooftop gate, Senpai stood in front of Nakamura. With a little hesitation in his words, Nakamura asked Senpai " Umm... Hina-Senpai, What is your relationship with Riel? Is he your relative... but I never saw you talking to him before and neither he is kind of person who would talk to anyone, let alone someone like you but today, He was different. He came to you and talked to you as if it was nothing to him-- as if that was normal and he even used your given name. So?"
Hina-Senpai's full name is, Fukai Hina-- Her given name is Hina. She listened carefully to whatever Nakamura had to say but Nakamura noticed an annoyed expression on Hina-senpai's face when he finished talking to her-- With that annoyed expression on her face, Senpai replied to Nakamura's question with her own question "Nakamura.... was it? First of all, I don't remember getting so familiar with you that you started to use my given name. So, Why are you using it? "
Nakamura was taken back by Senpai's question, He was surprised The girl who was so kind that she'd allow everyone to use her given name, is asking such question. Though it was only in his imagination that Senpai would allow anyone to use her given name.
"uh? I thought you don't mind people using your name... Even Riel used it. " Nakamura asked Senpai
And the answer he was about to receive is something so satisfying that I could die in peace.
"He uses my given name cause he is my boyfriend. And you, you are not even someone I know much about." Senpai said to Nakamura.
Nakamura was dumbfounded by Senpai's answer, so much that he refused to believe Senpai's words and thought of 'Aha this is a dream, isn't it? Indeed, It is a dream. ' emerged in his mind but, Sorry, It's not a dream, Nakamura-Kun.
Even though Nakamura tried his best to deny the reality, He failed to do so. As he recovered from the shock, He asked senpai, with a calm voice "I understand... But senpai, you said that you wouldn't go out with anyone so, now why are you going out with him? "
And Senpai remained silent for a few seconds and after much thoughts, she answered his question with " That got nothing to do with you but... I know if I don't answer, you will end up asking about it to Katsuki-chan and I don't want to cause trouble for him so, I will answer. Along the lines that I said while turning everyone down, I forgot to mention something so, Let me tell you again and this time, with what I had forgotten to mention 'Please don't worry, it just not you. right now, I am not interested in any of boys since I already have someone I love' and that person is, Riel Katsuki. There were various reasons for me to not confess to him even though I badly I wanted to but when He confessed to me, I was all over clouds and accepted his confession"
Is what Senpai said to Nakamura, Nakamura had no choice but to accept the fact that Senpai was my girlfriend. (YEH!!) There was nothing that Nakamura could ask more so, He left senpai alone on the rooftop and came back to class. He told me about this incident.
Though I was happy when Nakamura told me about this incident later and when I realized, How openly she declared I was her boyfriend But still... I didn't understand why she'd fall for a guy like me.
In any case, This is where my dairy end. I will continue on tomorrow and learn something new, then write it in this diary of mine
[End of Diary....]
It was a tragedy. " The world has gone through so much that now it is crumbling beneath my beloved's weight alone. " As she stood on a rooftop of a school while speaking those words to herself, The ground started shaking from an earthquake. When She looks beyond the fence of the rooftop, She sees a few tall buildings crumbling. She doesn't wish to harm any innocent people, thus she suppresses her emotions once again and the violent earthquake stops.
She puts a smile on her face, beneath that smile she hid her sorrow. On her smile, the world stands still and the one she loves, and to protect the one she loves, she smiles.
With that smile on her face, She extends her right arm in the air. An Images appears in front of her, Reminding her of her past. Tears from eyes would always fall on the ground whenever she watches herself in the image, killing the person she loved the most "On...Only If I could've acknowledged your will-- Only If I had done that, We would have been together forever. " She says, with a smile yet tears falling from her eyes.
She was suffering...Yet, She was happy. Those were complicated emotions that she felt. The image that she uses to reminds herself of her past and what she has done, in that image- She stands in the middle of ruins of a city, holding a sword in her hand. On the other side of the sword's tip is the person she loves the most, the person she would've given her life for, without a second thought. She thrust her sword in that person's abdomen as the person who stands in front of her, give her a smile in return. The resolve she made to cut the person she loved the most, broke in pieces.
She saw his smile for her, in his last moment. The mere moment he had before she stripped him of his soul, he spent those moments to smile, for her
She started crying in agony "Why... Why you had to smile!!? " She shouts in the ruins but there was no one that could hear the cry, the only person that could hear and answer-- was Dead.
When She reminded herself of what she has done, She fell on her knees on the rooftop. She was almost about to cry and ready let her emotions be free, to mock the world of its trivial existence, to remind the world what she had sacrificed while trying to save it.
"Hina-Senpai? What are you doing... No, I mean; Do you want to eat lunch me? " But the world was saved by these words that she heard. When she heard those words, tears from eyes quickly disappeared along with the image which reminded her of her past.
She stands up on her two feet and replies to the person who had just saved the world without even knowing "Katsu...Katsuki-chan... I love you. " but these words are not the only that she wanted to speak---She wanted to apologize for she has done and she wanted to ask, Why'd you smile for someone like me?
Truth is hidden from him so, He couldn't answer but... Everyone who fell in love knows what his answer would've been to that question
He replies with his benevolent words to the person he loves the most "Eh...?? Wha... Uh Yea, I also love you. "
The past is something that cannot be changed in the real world but surely, in this world, The past is something that can re-written with a price and She paid that price, to live again with the person she loves the most.
As she walks beside him, again. She swears 'This time, I will attain our Dreams of The Past. '
The Diary will resume---
