Author:  Hello everyone!  My name is Pinku and I'm a young aspiring writer.  This is my first piece, so expect lots of mistakes.  I welcome all criticism in the comments.   I'll be releasing a chapter every Friday.  With all that information gone, Please enjoy my story and all comments welcome.


 The Light shines through the curtains. I groan. The is warm, but I can't sleep. I need to go to the bathroom too. With hesitation, I crawl out. The room is dark but just bright enough to see. My stuff bunny named Mrd. fluff. Its gorgeous pink stands out against my very dull blue bed. I move it under my bed. It was a gift from Yumu. I will cherish Mrd. Fluff until the end of time. I approach the curtains and swing it open with all the energy I could muster.

I left my room and went down the stairs. I walk to the kitchen and begin to pour a glass of milk. I dip a cookie in it. I need to remind dad to get some cereals. Next, I change into uniform worthy clothing then I walk to the mailbox. The school bus appears shortly afterward.

While on the school bus, I saw a red rose briefly. It was a glowing red rose, petals as dark as ruby. Yet shines like a star. Around it, there were static white roses.

I arrive at school and travel to an open classroom. I begin to read a novel titled The Master's Pet. The story is about a young boy who falls in love with a rich man's son. The boy does everything he can to make the man's son fall in love with him. But in the end, he does not succeed.

However, I lost focus quickly, Yumu is near the front talking with his friend. But is he blushing?

His face suddenly turns red.

"Why him. Don't you think there someone better than him?" says a girl

"Amanda! I like him!" Yumu shouts louder then I expect. The teacher hears them and asks them to leave.

I wonder what they were talking about.

After school, I go home and start watching anime. During an episode, Yumu texts me.

"Hey," My iPhone reads

"Hey, is something wrong?" I reply. Yumu and I only hang out and talk during the weekend or school breaks.

"Listen, I need to tell you something."

" I am moving away to another country." In this very movement, I feel an emotion I have forgotten

Love. I have forgotten how much I love him.

I fell into despair instantly.

I love him. I want to tell him how I feel. I suddenly want to hold his hands. I feel lovey-dovey thinking about him now. I don't want him to go.

I shut off my iPhone and walk to my bed. I get myself comfortable and begin to sleep. I shut myself off. I'm sad and tired. I don't want him to go. I want to hold him tight in my arms. I want to curl up into a small ball and forget my own existence. I'm scared, I need him. He is my only friend, but now that he's going. I feel I want him to be more than a friend.

"Hey, are you crying?" Says Amanda
