Sora Takenouchi sat on the steps in front the school, wearing her school fuku. She stared at the poster that told about the Fall Dance on Friday. No one had asked her. She waited for her friend, Tai Kamiya. Inside she was crying, today was Wednesday and Tai was going to the dance with Mimi. Maybe she could ask Matt to come, they WERE like brother and sisters.
We were together in a dream, weren't we?
As the stars looked on
Tai quickly ran out and in front of Sora, "Hey, buddy! Wassup!" Sora smiled and tried to hide her feelings through that smile Tai never realized was fake. "Nothing much 'cept the sky." Sora said, her normal reply to Tai when he asked that. He laughed and the two started walking.
When we were just friends, we didn't mind too much
We could talk casually
But there were moments when I only saw you
I want to be prettier this instant
Sora looked at her plain face and body in the mirror. She didn't have the beautiful hair like Mimi or the figure that Mimi owned. She didn't have the personality that drew boys near like Kari. Her chest was flat compared to the girls in her school. Her curves were tomboyish and her hair had no style. Even her personality was dull.
Like Yolei, she didn't have the fun and loving personality. The crest she once had seemed like a joke. Love. She never had love in her life and never will. She loved a boy and he didn't love her back. He loved her friend, Mimi Tachikawa. The pretty popular rich girl.
When you fall in love, something changes
Close your eyes, and make certain
Keep the rise on your heart beat secret
I wish I can just show you my feeling
The next day was Thursday and she had found out Matt had been tricked into going out with Jun and said he wished he could go out with anyone else. Sora closed her eyes and took in the scent of the air. It was deep with the cold breeze of Autumn and the scent of leaves filled her breaths. She saw Mimi and Tai at the parking lot. She was hugging him and clinging to him. Sora wished she could be like that, show her feelings so openly but they will stay a secret in her heart.
On the way back home,
I don't want to say bye in front of everybody
So, I'll wave my hand big from today
I want to show you a better me
Sora waved to Tai. He didn't see her. She smiled and tried to pretend nothing happen. Anyhow, he was with Mimi. He will always be with anyone but her. No matter if she showed him in everyway but telling, that she loved him. She walked home on the cold Thursday in November, alone.
We were together in a dream, weren't we?
We were closer than anybody else
I'll give you back then
My love now
Sora laid in her bed. She listened to the clock tick on its way to tommorow. She smiled at the cieling, remembering everything Tai did. The sweet things that made her smile and laugh or the hurtful things that brought them closer. Sadly, asking Mimi out was too hurtful to forgive. He had asked other girls out but they never acted like this.
I have a feeling tomorrow
Will be a very good day
Sora walked to school, thinking to herself when she heard footsteps coming up behind her. "Someone on their way to school." Sora thought. She heard a faint sound of crying from the person. She quickly turned around and saw Tai, who was crying. "Oh, Sora! I am so sorry! Mimi... she was cheating on me." Tai hugged Sora. Sora gasped and hugged him back, "It's okay, Tai." They stood there for awhile.
