Admiration

Sakura x Hitomi Shorts
(Hitomi's POV)
I have come this far
If it wasn't for her then perhaps i'm still the old me who's leading the cheerleading squad.
i aspire to be an idol because of you. i was looking up to you..
You are my rolemodel
You potrayed my dreams of dominating the world through artistic manifestation
Sharing the same stage and you is enough but never have i imagined that we will be far beyond that
We seized the moment together..
Seeing how you faced everything makes me feel proud as one of your kouhai who's been looking up to you eversince..
She gave me hope that even a petite cheerleader like me can have a potential to become an idol like her..
Before it was all over, Before it was the end of the show, before the curtains fall, i just want to give all my gratitude to her who has made me the woman that i am now..

(Sakura's POV)
I'm just a normal girl who loves watching anime and playing games. Never did i thought that my world would change in one bit..
All these attention that i have garnered for almost a year under the spotlight, it makes me proud that for once, i have achieved something big in my life..
I have flown so high
When i decided to look down, i saw a simple girl, with a simple dreams, looking up with full of admiration to the sky where i'm currently flying
The girl smiled at me
I smiled at her and delivers a subtle whisper
"You'll fly this high someday.."
I did my best to go beyond my limitations..
I fall, i tripped off, i cried
I was about to give up
and live a normal life
Until i saw her again..
Beaming with determination
while looking up to me
like how she was looking to that sky where i once flew
Seeing her gaves me another determination to stand up and fight
I cannot lose
Especially that there is a pert who's looking up to me,
I have seen her, witnessed her tender and humble beginnings
How she was rejected for so many times
How she stumbled and fall
How she relentlessly chase her dreams
How she looks up to me like how she looks up in the sky where she once saw me flying
Watched how she grew up in the very front of us
From a girl who lacks of self confidence to a woman who conquered not just the stage but also the whole universe
Seeing her being like that makes me more stronger than i ever was..
I became a mentor to her
But instead of teaching her,
I was the one who ended up learning everything
She was the one who nourished me
It completely changes the way i perceive this life
How can a small thing
Can make a huge difference?

She grew up a lot
And little by little
by honing her skills
and killing her disadvantages
she have surpassed me
All i can say now is i am proud
And happy to be a part of your life
to be a part of your simple beginnings
-- as someone whom you look up to..

The two met in the hallway where the other members were waiting for them to arrive.
"Sakura chan"
"Hii-chan"
Then they shaked hands and smiled to each other.
"This is the end" She just said.
"It was only the beginning. A new level of game, Now that you have surpassed me.. the only thing that i want to say right now before we part ways is, i am wishing for the best of you.."
"But i still want to learn a lot from you" Hii-chan said then smiled. "You are my mentor after all."
Sakura holds Hii-chan's shoulders and stared at her. "No.. It was i who learned a lot from you. You are the one who nourished me, You taught me things that a person from every spotlight didnt taught, so thank you.."
Hii-chan's tears of happiness fell down. Sakura wipes it and together, they went to the ceremony, holding hands while weighing the pride of their first group and the feeling of admiration that they have shared.
