Ayano had died of leukaemia. She, being an all too cheerful and caring person did not want her family and those around her to worry about her. So whenever she was suffering, she always hid the pain with her smile. When she was revealed to have Leukaemia, it was already too late. She stayed in the hospital after the diagnosis.

Knowing that she would die sooner or later, she often looked out of the hospital window, staring afar, clutching to the paper cranes she had folded. She still had her smile but she was already too weak to walk around. She had become quiet, her bright voice was heard rarely. Shintaro visited her everyday.

One day, she felt really peaceful, and she was falling into a deep deep slumber. She knew she was at the end of her life, she wanted to live on, to be with the person she loved. She grasped onto Shintaro's hand as her life slowly drained out of her. And then her life ended.

She stood by her death bed, watching her love ones weep over her cold lifeless body. It pained her to see them in sorrow, yet all she could do was watch and let her tears fall, a silent soul by their side.

After Ayano's death, school ended for a term break. Shintaro was kind of relieved because school always reminded him of Ayano and their memories. At least he had a month to get over her pain. He had promise to not mourn over her death, so he had to be strong and smile for her.

End of term break, school reopen

Shintaro sighed as he trudged towards school. Momo was skipping cheerfully beside him, eager to meet Hibiya and her friends. They met Haruka and Takane on the way to school and walked together into the school.

After separating ways, (Momo, Shintaro and HaruTaka do not have the same age ^^) Shintaro mounted the stairs and walked up, ignoring the surroundings and the chatter of the other students. Momo had already sped up the stairs not afriad of risking being caught by any teachers and might get detention for running around.

He turned left around the bend and bumped into a figure.
   
"Ouch!" Shintaro said, wincing as he landed on the ground, butt first from the impact.

A hand appeared in front of his face offering help. "I-I'm terribly sorry for bumping into you.." this voice...it was all too familiar...... Shintaro shot his head up to meet the shy face of the owner.

The same smile, the same red clips at the exact location. "It can't be...sh-she-she's already dead" he reasoned to himself. He had Ayano's red scarf wrapped around his neck to remind him of his beloved.

"Um, is there anything on my face?" The girl asked, fidgeting uncomfortably at how the stranger was staring at her.

Shintaro quickly snapped out of his daze and shook his head. He could not think of anything other than Ayano. His soul seemed to have slipped out of his body as he walked to his classroom. Everything else was a blur, only Ayano's face was on his mind.

Please tell me how you feel with this chapter. I tried to organise my thoughts but seems like I failed because I feel like I wrote it in a mess.
