Story Description: I never got the chance to tell you how much I loved you since the first day I met you through the piano.
* * *
A car parked on the school's parking lot. It was a very high class school for music. Rina Suzuki, a new transferee looked forward on studying the piano. Her butler, Sebastian, gently opened the door for her after he successfully parked the car.
"Here we are, Suzuki-sama." Sebastian said.
Rina didn't reply to that. Instead, she gave a smile to Sebastian's humble attitude. Rina slowly went out of the car with her bag and walked inside the entrance slowly. Rina heard the sounds of a piano playing, so she knew her destination wouldn't be that far now. She slowly then followed the sound and accidentally bumped her foreahead onto the desired room's door. It took her a lot of time to finally reach her destination.
"I-itte.." Rina mumbled and rubbed the aching part of her forehead. Rina moved a bit to the right and leaned her back against the glass window.
The girl inside which was Haruna was busy playing a piece her teacher told her, but Rina seemed to get Haruna's attention. Haruna's head slowly turned to where Rina was at and gazed at her in awe while playing the piano. The teacher then gave Haruna a smack on the back for not paying attention to what she was playing. Haruna jumped as she was startled with the teacher's action. Haruna went back to playing the piano, but secretly.. She darted her eyes to Rina from the corner of her eye without the teacher noticing.
The next day later..
Haruna was about to attend her classes already. She excitedly packed the things she needed and headed to the music room. Her room was only three rooms away from the music room, so it didn't take her a whole time reach there. When she arrived by the doorstep of the music room, she saw Rina playing the piano with the teacher. Rina's mentor seemed to be torturing her a lot more worse than Haruna whenever she makes mistakes from the way Haruna saw how the teacher smacked Rina with that whip. Haruna could see the tears that streamed down Rina's eyes as she watched her from afar. It made herself guilty to know that she couldn't do anything for her that time.
"Ah, Suzuki-san.. You're really not learning this fast enough." the teacher mumbled disappointingly.
"S-sensei, give me one more chance.." Rina pleaded desperately as she tried to stop the sobbing sound of her voice.
"I'm going to let you play another piece, Suzuki-san. I'll go get the piece back in the teacher's room." the teacher said and immediately left the room with Rina practicing the current piece she has. Still, she made a lot of mistakes.
The teacher passed by Haruna and continued to walk the hallways. When the teacher was visibly unseen, Haruna immediately took the chance to finally spend time with Rina personally. Haruna slowly opened the door and made a soft creaking sound enough for Rina to hear it.
"Sensei?" Rina asked and stopped playing. Haruna carefully closed the door and crept her way beside Rina. Haruna then sat beside Rina and held her hands that was on the piano.
"Ah, that's not how you play it.." Haruna said calmly and guided Rina's hands to play the right keys. Rina's body immediately froze when she felt Haruna's warm touch. The only thing she could just do is smile there.
"Who are you?" Rina finally spoke up. Her eyes still darted on the piano keys.
"H-Haruna Ono.." Haruna stuttered nervously. "And what's your name?"
"Rina Suzuki.." Rina simply replied and suddenly smiled.
"Hehe.. That's a pretty cute name for a cute girl." Haruna replied and continued to guide Rina's hands on the right keys.
