#4 - You're not as I thought you were

Aoi Shiroyama POV

I was supported by my aunt when I left my family from the states. I told them I can take care of myself since half of them doesn't really care about me. Probably Aunt Carly is the only one who cares about me, I don't know about Yamato. In the past he was the one who supported me when I'm down and the only one who showed his care before Aunt Carly. Too bad he changed... so much... ever since she came around.

I'm now living in an apartment it was kinda small compared to my room but at least I have a roof under me. I just finished washing my hair as I dried it up with my pink towel, I looked at myself in the mirror, I looked stressed even though I was fresh from the bath. Even me, myself pitied myself.

Not only am I confused with my feelings.

But no one knows what I'm going through.

Not even my aunt.

I vomited and started having a wild headache, it was almost a week when I'm having these symptoms. I don't know what's wrong. And I don't want to check it up, I don't want to bother my aunt since she've helped me enough.

In these days.. I feel like I'm on my own.

I washed my face after and head out to get some fresh air.

I'm completely mad about that I'm still confused. Confused of why I'm still excited to see him? why do I still care for him knowing he doesn't care about me? Why do you always look at her when I'm just beside you? why am I suffering just because I've liked someone for years?

I'm so naive...

This is why I hate myself.

I was on my way to the grocery store to buy myself a nice piece of doughnut. But I was disappointed when they ran out of stock. I looked around to grab a cup of noodles to satisfy my disappointment. But then I saw Kei Fukunada on my way out.

"Aoi?" He ask.

"Kei! I've never seen you for a while." I said. I said with excitement.

"Cheerful as always!" He locked his arms around me.

We sat down next to the store and ate the stuff we bought to catch up. "How come you're not in the states?" He asked.

"My brothers and sisters are pain in the ass including my parents! they really do get in my nerves that in the end I had to come back here in Japan to live by myself!" I said as if I was rapping.

"Slowdown, don't rap while you eat." He laughed.

"I can't help it!"

"So you live by yourself?"

"Well.. for now, Aunt Carly supports me in the meantime until I graduate in college, she's also the president of Miyagi High."

"Really? the school not far from here? hope it's not awkward and all with my sister in Miyagi." He said scratching his head.

"Oh, I've met your sister. She changed a lot actually.. and too bad she doesn't remember me and Yamato."

"Yamato? is he a student there too?" He asked.

"Yup.. he changed too.. so much.." I looked down.

He let out a sigh as he pat my head. "I see you still like him huh?" He gave me a smug as if he's making fun of me. I slapped his hand out of my head and shouted "Of course not! he became a jerk, I'm telling you!"

"He was always a jerk to begin with."

"No not like he used to! like literally, he's anti social, he doesn't talk to anyone, anyone who confessed to him he go straight to a no! and he rarely smile these days!he doesn't even have any friends in Miyagi, almost everyone doesn't want to be friends with him because he became a cold jerk!"
