"Hey,do you want to play with us?"

A kid who was the most playful of the group invited me.

"No…I don't…"

"Oh come on don't be such a wimp!"

"But I have to study"

"It can be done later"

My hand was forcefully grabbed and I was dragged along to play.

"It's important to have fun first!"

But I didn't hate it…

Such a strange person…
.
.
.
Back then,I was attending a school in our neighbourhood.

I'm unsociable and couldn't get along with the boys of my age.

That person was the most wildest kid in the boys' group.

But the only problem was that the kid is a girl.

Even though a girl,she played football with the boys in the mud.

Skipped classes and climbed trees.

She was living in a completely different world from mine.

Her world is filled with colours and emotions but mine is dull enough to be black and white.

That day she invited me to play,I still remember it clearly.

We were still 8 years old.

She had short black hair similar to a boy's.She had tanned gold skin and a pair of pretty eyes.

I was just a gloomy boy with pale skin and petite figure.

I was mesmerized by that careless yet cute smile.

"Hey,what's your name?"

"M-Mitsuki Hayato…You are?"

"I'm…hmm…full name's annoying so I'll tell you my nickname,Shiro!"

"Shiro…"

"Nice to meet you Mitsuki!"

"Me,too"

Shiro was fun to be with and I realized that the reason the she hangs out with boys is because the girls casted her out.

Well,she hated girly things and gossip so it's natural that she became like that.

"Girls tell me the people who skipped classes yesterday"

"Umm they're Saki and Taro and…"

"Are they all?"

"Ah,wasn't Shiro included too?"

I turned to the girl who said Shiro's name.

As I recall,Shiro was helping that girl at the library.

"Hey,I helped you with the library work that day"

"But-but you weren't there…"

"Don't lie!"

"Stop it!Shiro,please come with me to the teacher's office"

"B-but teacher!"

"No buts!"

"Yes…"

I saw the group of girls snickering at her while she was being scolded.

That was the first and last time I saw her cry.

After that day,Shiro didn't come to school for a while.

I wanted to meet her but before she returned to school I was hospitalized due to an illness.

It was also close to graduation so I couldn't see her since then.

I wanted to tell her that we'll be changing classes next year.

But my summer passed without a trace of her.

She'll surely keep her promise.She is supposed to…

Months passed by till the new school year.

I got to A class and she got to C class.

From the start of the school year,I waited for her to come to my class.

But she never visited.

"She must be busy…I'll just go over to her class"
.
.
.
"Umm…is Shiro here?"

"Ah,she's at the playground"

Playground?

I saw her playing with the boys from our old class.

Her deep purple irises met mine and she came over to my side.

"Want to play with us?"

"Imm"

"By the way…"

"What?"

"What's your name?"

"E-eh?"

"I asked your name.Wait,where are my manners I'm Shiro.Nice to meet you~!"

That time I realized that no one was supposed to be trusted or loved.
