You're My Sunshine (KarmaxNagisa)

Chapter 5

"The other night dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
But when I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried.

I'll always love you and make you happy,
If you will only say the same.
But if you leave me and love another,
You'll regret it all some day:

You told me once, dear, you really loved me
And no one else could come between.
But now you've left me and love another;
You have shattered all of my dreams:

In all my dreams, dear, you seem to leave me
When I awake my poor heart pains.
So when you come back and make me happy
I'll forgive you dear, I'll take all the blame.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away"

"What's this?" Karma gulped, "is it a poem? No, it's a song.." His color face drained, "kind of creepy.."

Karma took the other paper and one by one they revealed something. The rest were like a diary of someone who's in love. The curve of the writing was smooth, perhaps it's a girl.

She's in love with an unknown boy who suddenly appeared before her, but the boy was weird. He had a blank stare and didn't talk. She thought that the boy was mute and blind, so she gently grabbing his hand trying not to startle him. She tried to drag him but he didn't move. At that moment, she's just standing beside him in silence by watching the other children playing on the playground. Soon, there's some adults came, dragging him forcefully then left her behind.

"There the first writing.. Next.." Said Karma by taking another paper.

In the other time, the boy was already there sitting on the bench on the playground. There's no one but him. The sky was clear at that time, so it's strange that no child was there to play. She then sat on the same bench but not so close to him. She began to talk a bit about her days but still no response from the boy. That repeated days after and even weeks.

"So, she's enjoying it though she knew that the boy didn't even realize it.." Karma sighed, "next.."

"Every time I saw his eyes, slowly but sure I saw a small spark.. I'm sure he can hear my voice.. I'm sure he notices me.. There's a day when I saw one of his fingers flicking.. I will try to sing for him next.. I hope he likes my favorite song.."
The next day she met him, she sang the song in front of him. She didn't care with the stare of people around her. She sang it with all her heart. She hoped her feeling could be delivered to the boy. Unfortunately, she only knew the chorus of the song.

"Did she add the rest of lyrics by herself?" Karma looking at the paper which had lyrics of the song then he took the next paper.

It'd been three days and he didn't come. She kept on waiting for him by sitting on the same bench. The last time she saw him smiling though it's just a really small smile on the corner of his lips. The relief feeling of seeing his progress warmed her heart. She wanted to see him soon. There were so many stories to tell, but why didn't he show up? Did the adults forbid him to go outside? Was he sick? The girl was really worried.

"Next.."

"What's with them? Who are they? Why do they after me? Did I do bad things to them? I need help, but no one can help me.. Better if I hide myself in the basement to see what's happening.. I'm sure that they're keeping him somewhere there!!"

"Eh? There's an erasure here.. No.. It's....."

"Karma, can you___" karma's mother suddenly came in.

"Eh!? Mom??" Karma startled, turning to face his mother and hiding the papers behind him fast, "what is it?"

The mother furrowing his eyebrows, "what's that, Karma?" She pointed at Karma's arms.

"Nothing.." Karma panicked, "what is it, mom? What do you need?"

"Karma, answer my question first! What's that behind your back!?" The mother insisted by grabbing Karma's shoulders, "don't make mom worry even more.. I had enough of worrying you that time.." Her tears flew.

"Why are you crying?" Asked him flatly and for a short moment, Karma's stare was blank.

The mother gasped, "Kar..ma..." She hugged Karma tight, "don't make me remember about 'that'!! Please.. Be a good boy and don't try to recall it.."
