A Tale of a Promise

Chapter 7

Kimi Aiyu's

The maid gave me a flower; she said it's from Yunme. I smell the flowers and put them in a vase. Then I saw the calendar...February 14, it was encircled...the day I always wait for him, and now it is the day of my surgery. I really do hope that I will see him again before my operation. Because maybe if fate plays with me. Sooner or later, I'm gonna die. The doctor said that my chances are half away from death or alive. Guess this will be my fate, but there is only one wish I want to come true, and that is to see Iro.

The next day...

Just another day, I was here at the cafeteria when someone sat in front of me.

"Here, seems like you're sleepy."

I looked at the person in front of me and saw Finn instead.

"Thanks."

I grab the coffee he's offering to me, and then he asks me something.

"Hey, uhm...does Angel have a date on Valentine's Ball?"

I just spat the coffee after hearing those words.

"Ah...no...she doesn't have one..."

"Then will you help me then?"

"S-sure"

I smell something between these two...Last time at the locker room. Angel just began to hide from the locker door when Finn passed by. Now Finn wants Angel to be his date!

As the bell rang, I went to my next class. But suddenly, my chest seems to tighten...

I-I can't breathe...I fell to my knees and tried to catch my breath. My sight started to blur, and then I tried to look for the medicine inside my bag. I open the bottle and drink one medicine. After that, I put the medicine inside. I felt my sweat and tried to catch my breath...I try to stand, then push myself to the nearest wall. I hold against the wall as support until. I fell on the floor.

"Is she awake?"

"Maybe"

I heard some voices. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Finn and Angel.

"Gosh, thanks to God you're awake...what happened to you?"Angel said.

"I-I just didn't get enough sleep,"

"Stop lying," Finn said.

"What are you talking about?" Angel asked him.

He handed something from my bag; it was my medicine.
