Cool Rebellion

"Doushitano, Cool. Nani ga okotta's. Anata wa kawarimashita", asked Imel whose father works in the Japanese embassy. 1)

"Nande mo nai. Daejoubu" 2)

"Haohi?" 3)

"Hi, hontou desu" 4)

Imel was not sure of his friend. Cool looks very much different from the Cool he used to know.

"Cool..."

Cool looking at Imel.

"I'm sorry, not that I'm sassy for you. But, I know what you're feeling right now. I understand how you feel. However, please Cool, don't spoil yourself with bad things. You are right, you deserve to be happy. But not in this way you seek happiness"

Cool stay still.

"You have to show that you're not as bad as they think you are. I know you're a smart kid. But I beg you to change your prilak. Be the real girl, the one that's really cool that I used to know. Cool who is friendly, jovial, meek and well mannered. Not cool like this"

"Time can change everything, Mel"

"Indeed time can turn you into this, meaning time can also change you into Cool that was not"

Cool can't argue with Imel. In his heart, he felt overwhelmed with his current life. There was an empty side to his heart. Something was missing in his heart.

"Samma ...!!"5)

"Dare mo watashi no kyoka nashi ni kono michi o toru koto ga dekimasen"6)

Some thugs intercepted him as he passed through a deserted street near the station. Today Cool came home later than usual.

"Mimi ga kikoenai!!" 7)

Cool stared intently at the thug.

"Name ... Mite ... Kirei da yo", said one of the thugs as he rubbed his chin Cool. 8)

Cool back to beat the other thugs until battered. Cool from small already follow karate and when first grade Junior High he was already a black belt. The thug was not a worthy opponent for him. Cool could easily knock out the six of them with his bare hands.

When he got home he found no one there. Her mom doesn't seem to be coming home tonight. Cool is used to it. He headed for the kitchen and opened the fridge, picked up a can of cold sake.for a third-grader of Junior High it was indeed amazing, let alone a girl. Her mother had raised her hand in the face of Keren's temperament.

"Modoranai jikan", his mumble 9)

He only looked at a photograph when he was not in school, when he was only two years old. He and his parents often went fishing in the river. They were a simple happy family.

"Kimitachi ga kirai. Hontou ni kirai ..!!!", cried Cool while throwing his sake can towards the photo earlier. 10)

Prahaaang....

The photo fell and the glass was scattered on the floor. Cool feeling his head dizzy. He staggered into his room. And finally on the floor.
