"My name is Aiden. And yours is Kaida. What do they have in common?" You should know this! "I don't know, what?" I gave Kaida the disappointed look. "How do you spell your name?" She then grabbed a paper and pen from my pack, and wrote it using the Japanese characters, "Really. That's not what I meant." Then she spelled it in english. "Yep, there is something in common. A. I. D." She looked up at me. "So what's your point?" I have to use my left. I put a thumbs up with my left hand, "So you can call me Stone. While I call you Ai." She looked me dead in the eyes, "That is a given name for females. But I guess it could work." Ai, it's got some ring to it.
"What does Kaida mean?" I looked at her. She ignored the question and continued to walk. I followed her. "Is that your real name?" She also ignored that one. Please don't ignore me. Also that's a surname, don't test my knowledge. Cayden told me it was. I used my phone to search for the meaning of Ai. It means, oh wow. "Okay, now I see why you're okay with Ai." She turned around, "Hey, what with all the questions." I nervously looked away, "Nothing. I'm just curious." She looked at me, "Kaida may or may not be my real name." No really? I have been wanting to know your real name. Plus you are first name blank Kaida Ueno "Just tell me." She looked at me, "What?" I looked at her and smiled, "I am Aiden stone. There is no way you can keep a secret. Miss Kaida Ueno."
She was still confused, "Okay. Let me explain. I know your surname Ueno. But did you know, I also knew about your second surname Kaida. What is your real name?" She looked at me in disbelief, "How did you know?" I looked around, "Cayden figured it out. He wanted me to find out your real name." She then became surprised, "How did he know?" I looked at her and shrugged my shoulders, "Honestly, I don't know. Cayden was intelligent, and on a whole other level. All the stuff he has been telling me and warning me about always happens years after he told me." I looked at her and smiled, "So from when I first met you, I asked Cayden about your name, his best guess is you were covering it up, due to trust."
"But sooner or later I would figure it out for the both of us. So tell me, what is your name?" She looked at me and then away, she walked up to a window, and stated outside, "Akira Ueno." Her full name. Wait Akira Ueno!? "I have to know, Akira..." I was interrupted, "Named after my father's sister, Akira Ueno." She turned around to see me, "if you are wondering how I got Kaida, well I was trying to rearrange my first name, Akira," she wrote it down step by step. Moving a letter after the other. "Kaira. Then I replaced the r with d, since I knew Kaida was a surname" she paused and looked at me, "and would easily be mistaken for being a name by many who didn't know it."
I looked at her and laughed a little, "Wow, took us for being stupid." I said jokingly, she laughed, "So I did." Wow we are adjusting to the newer type language. "How did you learn both Japanese and english." She looked at me, "Parents. Also, great way of changing the subject." I looked away scratching the back of my head, "Hah, yeah." I smiled lightly.
