Dreams Memories ( Memory SIX )



Memory SIX

I head back to class, and just like the teacher said. I didn’t get any punishment for skipping the class. I head back to my seat and thinking about what happened earlier. I wish I know what happened 8 years ago before I had accident. Wait! I know someone who knew! I look to Reika and give her a piece of paper that asked about my past. I see she writing the reply and give back to me.

“Know something about your past? What do you mean?” She wrote.

“Well, In the past did I good with violin? Did I always cheer people when they are down?” I wrote my answer and gave it back to Reika.

Reika thinking a lot for a moment, and she looks rather shock reading my letter. I see her write back then she give back to me.

“Violin? Hahaha…Don’t kidding me. You HATE music! Cheer people when down? Hahaha… Indeed you were kind back there but you were totally shy.” She answered back.

Wait?! WHAT? I hate music? Therefore why did I insist my Dad to thought me how to play violin back in Gresia. I really don’t get it. Then I see Reika write another piece of letter and give it to me.

“Don’t really think about it. Just like I said before, you are really like a different person after that accident, you totally change dramatically. I’m kinda sad about it. But I’m happy too, that you are fine.” She wrote.

Looking by Reika’s letter, the boy in my dream definitely not me. But Shylvarion said that we are alike. Oh man, this thing is complicated. I can’t concentration to class the whole time. Then the bell rang. It’s 3.00PM It’s after school. I run out of classroom and head to nurse’s office to check Shylvarion condition. 

When I arrive to the nurse office I find no one in there. I search the entire school for her. And I didn’t find her. I look to my watch and it is already 4.30 PM. Suddenly I remember something from my dream. Yeah. She must be there. I’m sure of it. Then I run out of school. Run as fast as my legs can bring me. Finally I come to the Train Station. I go inside and find her sitting in the bench just like our first meeting. I go to pending machine and buy some drink. Then I go to her.

“Here. Take this.” I said and gave her cold tea.

“… You…how can you…ah nevermind…thanks” She said.

“What are you doing here?” I said and sat next to her.

“Waiting…” She answered.

“Who are you waiting for?” I asked.

“Someone…someone that will never came back…”She said.

“Hey. You know, you said before that I’m alike with someone you knew. And if we are alike, I believe he doesn’t want see you like this too. Sad and depress all time, All alone, having no friend to rely on.” I said.

“It’s useless…I will never be the same again, not until he back.” She said.

“Therefore take my hand, I’ll take you to the place that bring you happiness. I maybe not him, but I’ll try to make you smile.” I said and offered my hand.

She takes my hand without saying a word, then, I bring her to the park near the station, the park that Shylvarion and the boy used to play. I don’t know why but my feelings said that Reika is wrong. I’m that boy. Yeah. I’m that boy. Shylvarion maybe just doesn’t remember me because of the accident just like I don’t remember my past. And now for sure, I want that old time back. I want her smile back. No matter what, I want her remember me. 

We arrive at the park, Shylvarion sit in the bench while I stand in front of her. I take out the Magic Violin that I brought with me. Shylvarion looks shocked.

“Now close your eyes and feels the magic of this violin” I said.

She closes her eyes and I start playing the same song that I used to play in the past. The song that brings her smile again. The song of happiness. I’m playing the song with all my heart. After the song and I see Shylvarion sheds her tears but guess what. She Smiles! Yeah. The first smile I ever see. And then I sit next to her.

“See, I can make you smile too.” I said.

“Don’t be silly I smile because I remember my happy time in my past. The same song with the same violin. But just…a different person…” She said.

“Did you forget his name?” I asked.

“Forget? Don’t be kidding. I never forget a single thing about him. He is my first and my last love. He’s the one who ever bring my smile again, and he’s the one who ever bring this sadness and pain.” She explained.

“What? You remember all thing of him? So, Do you know his name?” I asked again.
“Name? Of course. His the one who bring me to this place, and his the one the only reason I can live till this time. His name is…..”

That one word….One word of name makes my mind goes blank… All my hunches were wrong. The one word that make all back to the start. The word…

“Yuuki…”

That boy was not me……
