Trapped in the Past

See each other

Six years Alita underwent elementary school education, and during that time there was not a single memory that stuck in her heart. He wears a decent uniform for his regular elementary school kid, but due to his good looks no one wants to be friends with him.

"Alita smells the market! It's so rotten."

"He's rude. Every time you borrow something, it is never given! Selfish!"

Such a meaning had no effect on Alita, she did not care what people thought of her. His heart was always softened when he was at school. However, after being at home Alita was cheerful as if she had just lived such a pleasant life. Since childhood Alita has been an expert actor in her own life.

Time continued to run until the first day of entering SMP arrived. At that time he was still wearing an SD uniform because he had not paid off the uniform payment. He became flashy because he was wearing a different uniform. But still no one seemed to want to be friends with him.

While waiting for the MOS committee to give directions, Alita sat in a park. His eyes looked at every passing student. No one cared about it, until accidentally a girl sat at the same table as him.

The girl was very pretty, the clothes she was wearing were neat. At first Alita is not interested in the girl, until her gut feeling tells her that the person in front of her is a good person. Out of nowhere the confidence came Alita did not know and tried to brave herself.

"You like to read books, don't you?" Alita finally made a sound.

The glasses girl in front of him raised her face. The book he read was closed for a while. "Lu talk to me?"

Alita was shocked as their eyes met each other. The girl's eyeballs emitted an aura of sadness like her eyes. The way he spoke was rude, but for Alita that was him. The girl in front of him was a figure who appeared as it was.

"Yes. I'm talking to you." Alita is interested. This was the first time anyone would be willing to talk to him without rebuking appearances.

"Yes. I like to read books. Do you want to read it too?"

Familiarity began to unravel unintentionally. Being watered by a bright light, Akita feels quite confident now that she has met someone who sees her normally. It was as if he had found a diamond.

The dark soul within him slowly disappeared to the point of not even a trace. Ruri's figure was the first friend to receive her presence. People who want to talk. The one who left a good impression on his heart.

They chatted a few lines. The conversation made them feel more familiar. Although during the conversation Ruri only showed a flat expression and rough tone, but Alita did not mind it. The two of them appeared as they were, as if the distance between them had disappeared. Slowly but surely, Alita began to confidently show her cheerful attitude like when she was at home.

"Why is your shirt different?" ruri asked after a long time they chatted about the book she was holding.

Rau Alita has doubts. But confidently he was honest. "I haven't paid off the uniform money. Haven't got a shirt yet, while wearing an SD uniform first."

Ruri nodded in understanding.

"You don't feel weird? I live in a simple family. My appearance is shabby and dirty. While you are the son of a rich man," said Alita as it is.

"Gue doesn't care about people. Being born rich is not happiness. I am happy to be myself. I think freedom is happiness."

Alita smiled, she seemed to see a shadow of herself another version of the way Ruri spoke earlier. "If so, let's be friends!" take it without a single shred of hesitation.

"When we spoke, I thought we were friends." Ruri returned Alita's hand.

After their handshake was released, Alita suddenly got up. So I decided to go near someone. Ruri watched the girl from a distance.

A man stepped down while looking down following his half-hearted words. Too many strangers around him, Kagami unable to look up, everything looks monochrome in his eyeballs.

Kagami's heart was empty, he didn't know what his current goal was. Entering an Junior High School, then studying, getting knowledge and graduating is mandatory for him. I don't know why it feels so boring. He was like an empty bottle that rolled back after being hit by the afternoon wind.

"Hi, you dropped your identification card."

A girl's voice surprised him. Slowly Kagami looked up hesitantly, his eyeballs instantly locking the jet-blank girl in front of him.

"This is your identification card that fell out" Alita said once again.

Kagami grabbed the thing. "Thank you," he replied and then looked down again and intended to connect the steps.

"Why are you looking down. Your body is tall, you know."

The girl was still nearby. Kagami was silent on the spot. He hesitated now, whether he should keep stepping or answer the words of the girl he didn't even recognize.

"Hi, look up there's a plane!" the girl suddenly.

Kagami's posture was straight, his head looking up at the plane the girl said she was looking for.

"It's true, you're tall!"

Alita measures her body with Kagami. It turned out that his body was only that of a man.

"Where's the plane?" Kagami.

The girl in front of him smiled widely. His eyes sparkled like stars. Her laughing voice made Kagami's heart warm.

"I'm sorry I lied. You keep bowing. What are you afraid of? You have no friends. Come be friends with us!" bring Alita.

The girl's smile was like lightning striking her heart. It feels very uncomfortable. There is a sense of happiness and doubt at the same time. However, as his eyes tried to look around, the world around him was no longer black and white. Everything starts to get colored. The net is wide open.

"Come, meet my new friend!"

Alita pulls Kagami's jacket sleeve forcing him towards Ruri.

'What's this? Why did this girl appear as an angel from the sky. Strangers who make my day colorful. Either he appeared on purpose or it was our fate to meet, but one thing is certain, I will protect him. Her smile was quite fragile, she was my life goal!' Kagami's heart is ambitious.

"Ruri, I found a new friend! Let's be friends with him." Alita's spirit excitedly introduced the man whom she did not even know his name to Ruri.

Ruri welcomed Alifa's intentions. However, he was still astonished after realizing that Alita's vision was extremely sharp. Kagami's identification card fell while they were talking, but Alita was able to notice it.

That day Alita found two dull diamonds. He is like a cloth that cleans the dust on the surface of the diamond, until the diamond shines again. Much brighter than before.

Ruri is a kind and sweet girl, despite her harsh tone. He always looks what he is. Kagami is a gentle man, and polite to women. One more thing that Alita knows about Kagami. the man likes to wear candy variant perfume. Sanga is sweet and makes her opiate when they are close together. Until now, even though Kagami is lying weak in the hospital, Alita can still inhale the scent of the perfume from Kagami's body.

"I'm sorry, I'm losing control again. I'm sorry, "sorry Alita while wiping away her tears.

Alita looked forward, now it wasn't just the two diamonds she found. There are three diamonds. Mirai, a gentle, whiny girl who hides her wounds, smiles at her.

"So, now we've made it all up, right?" Mirai.

Alita prancing and screaming. "Yey! We're back to how we were!"

"Whisper! You want to be expelled with the sisters?" chirping Ruri.

The sound of their laughter made the atmosphere there warm up. Their eyes that had dimmed back radiated life.
