Part 6

I heard my phone vibrate on my nightstand. I moved my tissues and my medicine to get it. "Hello?" I answered. "Hey Hibiki, it's Rin." He said. "Oh, hi Rin." I said. "Okay. There is something I want to ask you. Haruka and the others invited us to a event at the new Iwatobi Swim Club, we are swimming in a relay. Can you be on the team?" I felt so bad. "I'm so sorry Ri-Ri-achoo!" I said as I sneezed. "I think I caught a very bad cold from the cherry blossom that was in my mouth." "I keep telling you it wasn't the cherry blossom! You swam in freezing cold water while it was raining! Ugh, anyway I hope you feel better." Rin said. "Thanks." I replied sniffling. "Guess you won't be at practice or class either?" Rin said. "No, but don't worry. You still have Nitori and Sousuke." I said with a s light giggle. "Okay, get some rest." Rin said. "Okay,bye." I said. Then the phone line went dead. Poop. If I wasn't sick I could be having fun swimming in a relay!

I was laying in bed and I looked at the clock. I then had a ingenious plan! I hopped out of bed, but a little to quickly. I got sort of dizzy. I put on a pair of blue jeans and a kinda thin kinda thick black sweater. I then put I on converse shoes. I looked at myself in the mirror. I looked at my short teal hair. Before, the reason I died it was because my hair was naturally teal. People made fun if me in America so I died it white. But I have now decided to let it grow back into teal. I cut off the white parts too. I then brushed it out and grabbed my phone, tissues, medicine, and money. I stuffed them all into a little purse and hung it over my shoulder. I then walked out of the dorm and off to Iwatobi SC returns I went.

I was standing infront if the new Iwatobi Sc building. It looked so new! I then walked inside and it was sort of crowded. I was looking around and found a wall. There was a sight hanging over pictures saying, 'the history of Iwatobi' I went over and looked at it. I saw the picture from the relay years ago. I wasn't in that one because I volunteered to take the picture. But I looked over and saw the most recent one. We were all standing there looking happy as ever. I was in this one. It made me smile. I then coughed. My throat was dry, I needed water. So I found a hallway with a vending machine at the end. I saw Haruka there being pushed against the machine by...Sousuke? I then walked towards them. "Hi guys!" I said in my scratchy, but cheerful voice. Sousuke then turned around. "H-Hibiki? What are you doing here I thought you were sick." Sousuke said to me. "Oh, I wanted to see you guys swim, that's all." I said. Then Sosuke gave me a look and walked away. "See you later." I waved back at him. I then turned around and saw Haruka. "Hi Haruka!" I said with a big smile. "As you can see I have gotten sick from the cherry blossom that got in my mouth." I said with a giggle. He giggled a little too. "I think it was the cold water that did it." He told me. "That's exactly what Rin said!" I replied. I then took out a dollar and put it in the machine. I pushed a few buttons then I had a bottle of water in my hands. "Good luck today Haru-" I said turning around. But when I looked Haruka was gone.
