Author's Space: Hello there, readers! This is

Chapter 1: The Promise

"I know you will keep your promise, Haku. I know we will meet again."

That is what Chihiro believes and nothing is going to make her change her mind. She will always wait for him to come for her and she will always try her best to reach him.

Three months had passed since she let go of Haku's hand. Ten-year-old Chihiro Ogino will go back to the tunnel that leads to the other world once a week, hoping to be able to get to the place where Haku is. But three months had passed and every time she tries, she fails.

Today, after three months, she came back to the tunnel again. Taking a deep breath, she then walks into the tunnel with her eyes closed. She had crossed this tunnel enough times to allow her to cross it without bumping into anything even with her eyes closed. She opened her eyes when she felt a breeze of wind touching her face.

Like usual, no path was there for her to go to where Haku is. She turns around and sighed. Walking back to the entrance of the tunnel had always makes her feel heavy and sad. She left the tunnel and starts to climb onto her bicycle and decided to go back home after another failed trial.

She was cycling away from the tunnel when a voice stopped her.

"Chihiro!"

That familiar voice came from the direction of the tunnel and it is so familiar that it didn't take Chihiro even a second before she recognize the owner of that voice.

She turned around and her face is filled with happiness, "Haku!"

She quickly gets off from her bicycle and run to him. Haku smiled and opened his arms, ready to accept an expected hug. Chihiro felt happiness flowing through her whole body when she hugged the boy who she had waited to meet all these time.

"I know you will keep your promise! I'm so glad I get to see you again!" Chihiro said as she could feel tears of happiness forming on her eyes.

Haku placed his head on hers and said, "I will feel bad if I make you wait for too long so all this time I tried to come to you as fast as possible. I am happy to know you never stopped believing on me."

Haku broke their hug and wipe away Chihiro's tears. He is glad she is safe and sound. Chihiro is glad Haku managed to come here unharmed too.

Suddenly, Haku frowned a little and it made Chihiro worried for a while. Haku smiled and reassured her that he is fine, "I'm fine, don't worry. Just that..." Chihiro stares at him as he talks. "I don't have a place to stay here."

Chihiro just stared at him for a few seconds before she laughed a little. Haku looked slightly confused but Chihiro will always be there to guide him in this world.

She held his hand and told him, "Don't worry. Leave everything to me! You helped me when I was at the other world. Now that you are here, it is my turn to help you!"

Chihiro pulled him to her bicycle and ask him to sit at the back seat while she climb onto the bicycle. "First, you need to change your clothes!"

Chihiro cycle towards the town where she stopped in front of a shop where they sell clothes that Haku could fit in. Chihiro led him inside the shop and ask Haku to choose clothes he like.

But Haku just stared at the clothes and look confused. Chihiro laughed at him and decided to lend him a hand. She found a sky blue t-shirt and a pair of black jeans. She hand them to Haku and ask him to change into those in the dressing room.
