Chapter 11: Storm

Well, another day. And this time, Miku, Kaito and I were planning to get some materials for Rin's made up frame. "We have to be creative!", Miku said and I nodded, "you're right", "It's effort of course!", she said again. My class was over and I brought my bag with me, we three was sitting on the floor at the rooftop school building and it was their break time. This will start a great plan to make my little sister smile. "well, have you printed the photo?", asked Miku while they took out some art materials and designs.

"Yes, I did", I told them.

"Well, let's get started", we three started to make and cooperating. We stick it to the card board, instead of using the glue, we just taped it and add some designs and glitters. "Look, I bought a  sea shells stickers for Rin! ", she said and showed it to me, a few packs of sea shells was placed in the plastic. Kaito and I nodded and put some of it, effort is all we need, we don't need to buy a frame. Kaito had made up the idea of letting it stand, then we quickly put our names at the back and each letter for Rin. "This'll be fine, it looks great!", Miku said cheerfully. The design was great, a few glitters of blue, some sea shells and out message at the back of our made up frame. It actually took us more than a minute to finish this but good thing their bell wasn't ringing. I would've know what to do since my class was finished.

For a few minutes we talked about plans and hanging out but I felt like a child or back on my high-school or middle days. But it's more better than what happened back there. "Well, three minutes left to start the class again", Miku said and the two stood up, "we'll see you later or probably you should get there and show it to Rin ", Kaito said and Miku suddenly punched his arm a bit hard, "I-I can't see Rin again! I wanna see her with you guys", she said and crossed her arms. "We can always visit her after class. Len's going to be alright", Kaito told her and rubbed her hair softly like a little kid.

"Okay.. later then", Miku said to me as the two waved, Kaito opening the door and let Miku go first, follower by himself. I just stared at the door that was closed when Kaito entered lasts and glanced at the sky, feeling the wind passed by me. I closed my eyes and thought about that my sister will be fine. She'll be fine, right? she's just unconscious because she was tired.

=======================
* * * * *

"Mother", I called when I opened the door, mom was with my little sister, she was focusing on her and Rin was still unconscious. I got worried about that. I'm in a hospital once again to see Rin. I brought our made up frame with a wonderful picture of the sunset and beach. I hope she'll like it and most importantly, see it when she's awake.

"Len, how was it?", Lily asked and I placed our made up frame at the table beside the hospital bed where the oranges placed. "It was fine", I answered. Mother glanced at the frame and slowly smiled, maybe she was proud of me creating one for Rin. "Did you made it?", she asked and grabbed the frame and kept glancing at the frame, it's sticker wasn't falling and the picture was nice. It was a good idea to use tape instead of glue because if we did use glue, it's printed color will scattered, well some of it.

"My friends and I made that for Rin", I told my mother as I sat on the grey comfy couch.

"That is so caring of them..", Mother whispered and I stared at her, "H-hey, I made that too, you know!". Mother giggled at my childish act and placed back the frame. She seem like in a mood to tease me. "Reminds me when you were little, trying to create some designs in a piece of paper with a cute Teddy bear stickers and yellow glitters with random colors you wanted to add. It was actually cute", Lily told me about my past and smiled at me. I whined and blushed a bit as I remembered the past. I didn't know what to do that time, so I did some random things. I wanted to be creative which it was actually my second talent. Mother told me my first talent was singing because when I was three. I began to sing along with my mother while clapping my hands. She told me Rin did the same when she was little. My little sister and I probably love music and arts for some reason. Maybe that was running in our family blood. "You two remind me of myself when I was a baby", Mother said and kept smiling.
