"I believe that there's purpose for life, everyone deserves to live and the right to happiness. Yes, not all may be happy but Happiness come from within or someone."
~ Haru
Life has a purpose, which is why I'm still standing here today alive but have no memories. Makoto so far is someone that is really important to me, not saying that my other friends are not important; it's just Makoto stands out to me. Even if all I can remember is the car accident, I still have hope that there's valuable memories still in my brain.
"Haru? Hello?" Makoto waved as everyone just left.
"Oh sorry, need anything?" I responded.
"No um you alright? you were kinda just quiet all of a sudden" Makoto worried.
"Yea I was just thinking about something" I replied.
"Oh ok, the guys left by the way they are going to Samezuka Academy pool." Makoto announced.
They left, I probably took too long, oh well maybe we can go to this "Samezuka Academy" it sounds so familiar.
"Ummm do you think we can go there also?" I asked nervously drinking my tea.
"Sure, they said we can follow them there" Makoto smiled.
"Ok, I'll just change my clothes and then we can go" I responded heading to my room.
Finally we both walked outside and went to Samezuka Academy, it was so familiar but I can't seem to remember at all.
"Wow, this is a nice school" I complimented.
"Yea it is, well what are you waiting for let's go in" Makoto beckoned eagerly walking to the entrance.
"Nothing, let's go" I gulped and entered the school. When we got there it was immediately a swimming arena. Hmmm, come on brain work I thought hitting my head.
"Haru, Makoto just in time" Gou greeted waving from afar.
"Yea, Haru wanted to see the place" Makoto responded.
"So is this what they call swimming?" I questioned.
"Hehe, you're so funny Haru and yes this is swimming come on why don't you try?" Nagisa encouraged giggling.
"Are you crazy? I don't even know how to swim?" I responded jumping back.
"Hey you won't know unless you give it a try" Makoto uttered grinning along with Gou, Rei, and Nagisa.
"hmm, ok I'll give it a try" I nervously replied heading to the locker room where I changed into swim wear.
Still have no idea what I am suppose to be doing, so I adjusted my goggles and dived right in. Something was different I didn't sink, like the time at the beach instead I moved my arms and kicked reaching the end lane where my friends were shocked, smiling, and cheering.
"Woah, Haru that was awesome!" Makoto complimented offering his hand.
"Thanks, I didn't even know I could do that" I blurted grabbing onto his hand stepping out of the pool.
"Haru glad to see you swimming again" Rin addressed walking up to me.
" Oh Rin, right? yea that felt awesome!" I exclaimed.
"How about a race?" Rin offered.
A race, but I just swam for the first time what should I do? I looked at my friends who were shocked and frozen. "Haru, you can do this" I thought.
"Sure maybe it will bring back some memories" I replied and walked back to the diving boards where I positioned myself.
"3...2...1 GO!" Nagisa yelled and we were both off.
I swam to the best of my ability and closed my eyes where I saw dolphins gracefully flipping their fins to the open shore. I sped up more and touched the tile, where I heard the whistle blew.
"Haru, good game!" Rin congratulated pulling me out of the water.
"I won?what?uh thanks" I smiled scratching my head confuzzled to what just occurred.
"Haru, you won and you were so fast" Makoto excitedly running up to me, along with the others.
"Thanks, Makoto I did my best from what I believed I use to do I guess" I answered walking back to the locker room.
"I did it!" I yelled to myself. This was it, everything was starting to come back starting with my passion, swimming.
