Gah.. Forgot to publish yesterday XD
Anyways, here's the next chapter.. Sorry.. It seems a bit like a filler chapter.[Akane's POV]
When our sparring ended, Shin and I were dragging our team to the nurse's office. With Mira and Tomo on either sides of my shoulder, I set them down on separate beds. Shin does the same and the nurse comes in. "Why don't you, two, wait outside?", she says. We both nod and leaned on the wall by the nurse's room.
"..Tell me.. What did you mean by knowing how I felt?", Shin was the first to break our silence after a few minutes. "Hm.. When I was 4, my parents passed from a serious illness.. I always found it weird that they both passed around the same time with the same illness. I use to think someone got to them, but I don't know.. I might be wrong. I sometimes get a faint memory.. Two adult figures.. Me.. And someone else. I'm not sure if I had a sibling.. If I did, then I wonder where they are now. I was then enrolled in K.. The feeling of being abandoned and alone.. Is the feeling I felt the day I last saw my parents..", I told my story, sighing. I took a seat on the ground, looking at my opened hands.[Shin's POV]
'The feeling of being alone like that.. I know it very well..'
"Well?", she said. "What?", I asked. "You can't have me tell my story. What's yours..", she asked. "Hm? You're curious about me?", I found myself slightly teasing her. "Eh.. Not really", she said, looking away.
"..I don't really remember. When I was 6, principal found me in the streets abandoned. He said I won't even feel abandoned or lonely again.. And he took me in", I gave a quick and short explanation. She doesn't say anything, only nodding. Suddenly, the door opened and Lily came out. "Lily, you should be resting", I straightened up. "..Shin, let's talk..", she muttered. "I'll be talking with Mira and Tomo", Akane said with a bored expression, sighing as she walked into the nurse's room. "Lily.. About earlier..", I awkwardly said. "It's okay.. You're forgiven, but.. The reason you're so different.. I know it's because of her", Lily said, leaning on the wall besides me. "What are you talking about?", I asked. "I've seen you, Shin.. In class.. Nobody has ever seen you talk that much.. It's been years since you actually smiled..!", Lily began. "And it's because of her. She changes you. From the usual you to the one who didn't care about comrades, to now.. For the first time.. You smiled", Lily said, tears welling up in her eyes. "..Lily..", I didn't know how to comfort her. I didn't know how to react to this.
"It's okay. Shin.. I loved you ever since I got here", she said. "..w-what", I didn't know what to say. "It's okay, Shin. I appreciate what K actually did.. For the first time, you seem happy.. W-well, I'm gonna go rest", she said, heading back to the nurse.
'Lily.. Hm.. What did she mean by 'she'.. Akane? No.. Can't be.. Right?'[Akane's POV]
"Why do we have to be here.. This is basically nothing for us", Tomo said, sitting up. "I'm perfectly fine.. If not for Akane's stupid paralyzing thingy", Mira sighed. "How do you even do that?", Tomo asked. "..secret", I shrug. Lily then came in, with Shin following after her. "Aha, look who it is. The one who couldn't take a punch to the shoulder", Mira sighed, still a bit mad about losing. "What..", Lily glared. "And I thought instructor said it was going to be like K.. We didn't fight to the verge of death at all", Mira sighed, resting her head on her hand, which was on the table. "We don't practice K's way", Lily said, taking a seat on her bed. "Hmph.. This is K's way? It's undisciplined", Jin mutters. "You're just too weak. We didn't even go all out", I sigh, leaning on the wall.A/N: Short Chapter this time >n< Sorry
