Nothing To Something • Hiroki Suzuki

Chapter 36: Friends forever

She kept talking really fast about Misaki I couldn't keep up.

"It's only natural if you do I mean-"

"I don't have feelings for Misaki. What happened to Mica?" I asked

"H-He asked me out again.." she said

"And?"

"I said no"

"Why?" I said

"He's too much for me. He deserves someone way better than me." Miyako said

"I see.."

We started to walk around and we talked. It was nice talking to Miyako her voice was soft and she would always giggle a little which made me smile.

"Miyako..." I mumbled

"Yes?" She said

"I've got something to tell you." I said

She listened

"I'm moving to Kyoto" I announced

"N-No way! You can't!" She said

"I know but I have to.."

"I have something to tell you too!"

She went close to my face and I looked confused

"I want to treasure all the memories we had together. It was fun."

"Yeah..." I said

She hugged and me and I smiled. Miyako is someone I adore. Even though I never got to tell her how I feel, I won't forget her while I'm away.. Why does it hurt haha.

"I'm glad you are my friend." She said

I placed my hand on her cheek and closed my eyes

"You gave me strength.." I said

She actually gave me just about everything

"If I were to die right here right in front of your eyes. My only wish is for you to be happy and smile bright like you always do." I said

She started to cry and I opened my eyes to catch a glimpse of her crying but then she covered her face.

"Geez, do you know how much that means to me!? The world, that's how much is means!"

She stopped crying and smiled

"Come back okay?"

I smiled

"Of course, don't forget me Miyako." I said

"I'd never do that!" Miyako said

I reached in my pocket and took out an envelope and handed it to her.

"What's this?" She asked.

"It's something for you, read it when you can okay?"

She looked at me and then looked down.

"Well.. I have to go... Goodbye Miyako.." I mumbled

"Wait Hiroki-"

I turned around to hear what she had to say.

"Nevermind, I'll tell you when I see you again."

"Sure."

As I walked off I could hear her mumble something but I couldn't exactly hear it good. I swear it sounded like "I love you"
