"When the person meets the half that is his very own, something wonderful happens. The two would be struck by a sense of complete belongingness to one another, by love, and by desire, that they wouldn't want to be away from each other, not even for a moment." I said, reading my most favorite qoute of Greek Pilosopher Plato.




"Kazumi, why are you speaking English? Don't you love Nihonggo?" my best friend, Sakura asked.





"Of course, Sakura. I love Nihonggo. It's just that..." I heaved out a sigh, "I'm practicing English because Papa Alberto wants me to go in Italia."




"Is that so? Okay." she responded.




I just shrugged and went back reading.







Oh, God. Galilei is just soooooo awesome! He was the one who invented the telescope. Cool! Makes me want to idolize him more. Plus the fact that Galileo Galilei is an Italian astronomer; and I'm also Italian!





My name is Averie Kazumi Takahashi D'esognin. Takahashi is my Japanese middle name, because my mother, Hana is a Japanese. While, D'esognin is my Italian surname, because my father, Alberto is an Italian. My friends here in Japan calls me Kazumi (because they can't pronounce my Averie) but Papa calls me Averie.





I was born in a Barrio in Okinawa Island, Japan. My mother died because. . .I don't know. My Grand Parents raised me.





Living in a technology-filled country was really awesome. I'm now taking up BS Astronomy at Ishikawa Science Institute for Future Scientists (formerly Ishikawa Science University) here in Tokyo. I was inspired by the Italian Astronomer Galileo Galilei that's why I really love Astronomy.




"Look, Kazumi." Sakura showed me her phone, "the Sun's solare flares are about to hit the Earth. 2 light years, only and then BOOM. Bye, bye, Earth."


"Sakura, don't say that!" I shrieked, "that is never gonna happen, because someday, I will be known as the Earth's saviour. I will know the solution to the solar flares hitting Earth. We will never be firing up by those flares. Never."

*the words/sentences that are underlined are stated by Averie and Sakura as Japanese/Nihonggo. I was confused if I was going to translate it or not because I know not all of you know how to speak and understand Nihonggo. That's it, grazie milie, Flarers! :D
