Dear 28: My December

Who'll let you know
If I'm safe
It's not what I see
I have never heard life's always hard
Go wrong, it's alright

- Juvenile

Three months later.

"Hey Moms, Dad. It's been a while." I put the three baskets of flowers on top of my parents' graves. I lit three white candles, too.
I'm pretty sure that Moms (I have two Moms, right?) and Dad are all way up there smiling down at me.

It's been three months since the incident. Maybe it's plain luck because the day after the crash, 180 out of 295 bodies had been found, and that included my parents'. A huge thanks to Ellie, Rock and his best friend Rhythm who helped me recovered them.

Thanks also to a ninja named Takahiro.

After mumbling a small prayer, I hugged myself because it's very cold. This is my December. My season because my name is Winter but hey, I lived in a tropical country so don't expect any snow here.

Three months had passed. I survived. Yeah, I lived alone in our house, went to school, composed a couple of songs then uploaded it on my Youtube channel, painted some artworks and sone of my friends and classmates bought them. I earned a lot to sustain my everyday needs. My parents left me a huge amount of money in my bank account and it's still untouched.

I survived.

My parents, my bestfriend Ellie, friends and relatives -- they're my inspiration. I owe them a lot.

Of course, ONE OK ROCK. Their two-day gig in Nagisaen was a huge success! Imagine that 110,000 people! Can't wait for their new album Ambitions.

My thoughts interrupted because of my ringtone Let's Take It Someday. I smiled because of Taka's name flashed on the screen. My cheeks heated at the same time because I remembered our kiss. My first kiss. I let out a deep sigh before answering the call.

"Hey."

[Hi, Winter! We miss you so much!] I pulled the phone away from my ear. My goodness, they shouted at me! I thought it's Taka but I heard Toru, Ryota and Tomoya. Tomoya's voice is the loudest. So, where's Taka?

"Same feeling here, guys."

[Come to Japan, Winter! We'll have Ambitions Japan Tour starting on February.]

"How I wish, Ryota but we still have classes until March." I threw one last look on my parent's grave and started walking outside the cemetery. It's so chilly.

[Please, Winter? Vane, Mel and the rest of the gang will come to watch too!]

"But Tomoya--"

[No buts!] They shouted again. I'm afraid that I'll be deaf anytime soon.

"Chill, guys! Don't shout at me. I'll check my class schedule. Happy now?"

[Thank you!]

"Guys, my ears."

[Hey, Yuki Hime.]

My heart leaped when I heard his voice. The call ended to be replaced by a video call. Oh my God.

"Sorry I have to end the call. They're so noisy." Taka's cheeky smile appeared on the screen. Oh, how I miss his doe eyes too. I noticed that the background is quiet now. No Toru, Ryota and Tomoya.

"Hi, there. You're a ninja! Where are your bandmates?" Maybe I'm a ninja too because I'm still walking without getting tripped.

"They're at the living room. I'm here at my bedroom." He rotated his phone so I had the chance to take a glimpse of his bedroom.
