Seven Souls of Stars

Chapter 7 - Lesson of Familiar

In a beautiful day of Hawaii,

Warmth sunbathe on my skin,

As I hurried to my beloved,

For this unbearable happy news.

As I enter my home,

Two stranger came upon me,

Propose for a bond between family,

And I heartbroken from my father.

I weep hearing this,

My beloved left me,

And father seems indifferent to my feelings,

Soon it'll be fleeting as I reached out for my blade.

I've survived from darkness,

My mother weeps for me,

Understanding my fear and pains,

My father is nowhere to be found,

Until my mother told the unfortunate event upon him.

He felt guilt over my pain,

As he inflames himself,

Unable to withstand this pain,

I reach for another...

As she wrote her poem, she immediately crumpled into a ball and tossed it to the basket. She always wrote a poem every time she had a nightmare and 'toss' it out hoping it will go away. Alas, she can't erase this sadness deep within her heart. Unable to sleep, staying up until another day, she's hoping she'll find a way to end this nightmare once and for all.

It's nearly six o'clock, even without getting much sleep of it, she decided to get ready for her training. Seems her mentor already rub some of his habits on her and she decided to follow his footsteps since it is good for her. She remembers when she used to be an overweight person. Yes, she's usually chubby but after being train under Goku, it won't be for long as she's decided to stay in shape as it keeps her perky up.

She never wastes any time and head over to the gym until she meets him.

Aren walks through the halls wearing a royal purple robe. His teal eyes perfectly stare into her hazel eyes as he smiles at her with a toothy grin. She greeted him with such modesty but confused by feelings overwhelmed inside her.

"Good morning, Aren." She greets as usual cheerful tone.

"Morning, sunshine. Head to a gym?" He asked. Kalana blushes a bit by a nickname he gave.

"Yeah, I'm surprised to see you up early. Usually, you'd be bed by now." She snickers.

"Can't sleep last night... I've been thinking about my dream..."

"Dream?" She asked. Could it be a nightmare like hers? Coincidentally she had experience same as his.

"Yeah, I keep dreaming about playing piano but I can't remember the rest..." He awkwardly explains to her.
