Chapter 26

….....................................................................................................................................................................................

I woke up in the middle of the night That dream and the one I had before. . . 

"Somiko-San, this will be your new home for the next year," said the nice lady that escorted Somiko.

The nice lady and Somiko were standing in front of a large building that only has two floors with lots of pretty stickers on the windows.

Somiko was wearing a yellow dress that reached up to her knees. Her long white snowy hair that reached to her chest, side bangs that frame her face (one side has hints of red and blue and purple, the other side has hints of orange, pink, yellow, and green).

Somiko tilted her head in confusion. "Missy, what is this place?" she said in confusion.

The lady gave her a small smile. "This is an orphanage. It will be your new home for a while. Don't worry; you will get to meet a lot of new friends."

"Really?!" she said excitingly.

Being overexcited with the thought of meeting a lot of friends, Somiko ran into the orphanage. But she didn't look where she was heading and bumped into a boy that was younger than her by a year.

"Ite…" they both moaned.

Somiko rubbed her head and got up. The boy winced in pain.

He had red messy hair, with eyes about the same colour as his hair.

Somiko suddenly realized that she injured the boy. "Ah! I'm sorry. Are you okay?" she said as she helped the boy up.

He rubbed his head and smiled. "I'm okay!"

She giggled and held her hand out. "My name is Aroe Somiko. What is yours?"

"Ittoki Otoya," he said shaking her hand. "Let's be friends."

She looked at the floor and quietly said, "F-friends?"

Otoya nodded his head. "Yep! It's lunch time, so let's eat together!"

Somiko looked at the boy who was still smiling at her. He had such a nice welcoming smile. It would be Somiko's first real friend, but she nodded eagerly. "Mm!"

…

"Somiko-Chan, we're having a bazar coming up," Otoya said between bites of his sandwich.

"A bazar?" Somiko asked, already done eating hers.

Otoya gulped down his last bite and wiped his mouth then smiled. "Yep! It's going to be fun!"

They were both sitting outside on the bench their short legs hovering above the ground.

"What is a bazar?" asked Somiko who just heard of that word for the first time.

Otoya thought about it for a moment then said. "It's a big, big, mini market."

"How can a market be big when it's mini?" she asked, kicking her legs back and forth in the air.

"Ha, ha, I guess you're right."

There was silence at that moment, and then Otoya asked.

"I like singing, what about you?"

She nodded. "I like singing too. I like singing happy songs."
