I was shocked.
Everything is moving too fast. First, he asks me to my girlfriend, and now this??? I really want to say no. But, if I do, his heart will be broken again. And I love him and he loves me. So, I guess the answer will be...
"Yes. And I don't care what any one else thinks, I love you."
My dad glared at me, his eyes boring into mine, making me feel comfortable.
But I didn't care.
Kuro's smile was so bright and full of joy it made me smile too.
The crowd was so happy for us. They yelled, " Congratulations! Hope you too are happy!
Well, everyone except my dad.
After the ceremony, he pulled to the back of the gym. We had a conversation about this whole marriage thing.
"Honey, I don't think is a good thing. Kuro put you in jail and broke your hart several times. I don't think he is a very trustworthy guy. I want you to be happy, and you two getting married won't make that happen.
"What about mom? What does she think?"
He sighed running his fingers through his hair, " She doesn't think you guys should get married also. What I'm trying to say is be careful. We'll talk about this later. I don't you to stress about this now, tonight your night. So, go have fun. You know where to find me." He said motioning to the punch table.
"Thanks dad."
The rest of night was just pure fun. We ate, danced and hang out. Then, afterwards we went to a party at Ashley's house. It was amazing!! Not too over the top as her birthday party, but still very fun. I got home at around 10:00.
Good thing my parents knew I would, or otherwise they would so mad.
The next few days were pretty easy, to be honest.
Then, came the hard part us leaving to go to college.
We were both crying, as we hugged. Kuro said, " Here's a little something to remind me bye." It was a promise ring, that had the words in graved on it.
"Promise you'll never forget about me, no matter how long we are apart. Can you do that for me, Kyoto?"
I nodded my head. Then, I sealed my promise with a kiss.
As, we pulled out of the driveway, I looked back to see Kuro. I could see water in his eyes.
I wish I could stay with him.
But, I can't. I want to be successful in life.
Goodbye Kuro. I'll miss you so much.
And just like that, he was gone.

2 years later"Class. Be turn to page 321 in your math books. Complete example 1.When you're done, sit there quietly. Then we will do over it. Any questions, comments?"
The room was as quiet as a tombstone.
I only heard a few coughs."Okay then. Get back to work, I'll be back to a few minutes."
As, soon as the door closed I groaned and mutter " This is so stupid. Why do we even have to do this? It's not like I will remember this in a year or two."
As you can see, I hate college math. Everything is twice as confusing as it was in high school. Thank goodness, I have tutoring today. Maybe she will help me understand it.
"Kyoto?"
"Uh? What?" I stuttered.
"Can you solve this equation on this board, please?"
"Umm, sure."
The pressure of the chalk against the board made a loud noise. It really hurt my ears.
It distracted me. Now, this was going to be twice as hard as it was before.
I stood there for a few minutes. Not knowing what to do."Please, go back to your seat, Kyoto."
"What? I haven't even solve the equation."
"That's my point. See me after class."
------------
"Are you having any life problems? Because you seem to have trouble paying attention in class. Care to tell me why?"
"No, not really. I've always had trouble with math."
I would appreciate if you come to help class on Thursday. If you have any other questions, contact me at my email or phone number
He handed me a slip of paper that read: levin1324@ gmail.com or

"You're dismissed, Kyoto. See you tomorrow."
I made my way to my dorm. I can't wait to call Kuro. When I last talked to him, we was going a film class. He was learning how to edit. He seemed to like it so far. I'm really happy for him.
My phone buzzed out my ringtone Taylor Swift's " Wildest dreams "
"Hey, baby."
"Hey." His voice was hoarse. But, I could hear him clear as day.
"So, how are things?"
He didn't reply for a few minutes. I could hear muffled voices in the background.
"Who is that?"
Finally, he answered me after what seemed like forever. "Umm, that's just my roommate. He's having some friends over. "
"Okay."
I hope everything is okay.
