This is a strange or rather an obvious question, but how about paying a little attention and answer each matter carefully, and of course in an honest personal ideals.

Question; What does music means to you?

And...

How do you find music enjoyable?

Is it the lyrics that you love?

Or the beat of the wonderful instruments?

Or is it the voice of the one who's singing?

Once again... What is it that makes you enjoy the music?

Music is the poem of the heart, the words of the unspoken secrets.

Love, hatred, and suffering that is untold resides in the unknown numbers of different genre of music.

Yet it only depends on the one who claims to sing it.

Do you enjoy music?

Believe me, there were no such thing as unpleasant music. Just like human emotions, genre of music defines the feeling of every person who owns it.

Nowadays, people think that music is an essential matter to life. Well, I don't think I can argue with that.

It is true that music has a soul, a color, a meaning, and life. Don't you share the same argument?

To make it more accurate, life without music is colorless! If you don't accept this fact, then you might have a better explanation than this. Is there?

Well, continuing, truth and lies also live in the insight of music, in other words music is life and life reflex on music! Crazy, but this is reality and resisting is futile.

Truth to be told, we are taking different paths, a unique route of our own destiny.

Realizing this, you might think that I am a pro in defining life, but in reality, I am just another wanderer trying my best to discover a life of harmony —A life which music is a perfect melody.

You, what do you think of life?

Reading this book, what did you notice?

For almost 17 years of my existence, I've never really put an effort to think about it. Rather, I choose to enjoy the life of being a highschool— of course this phrase is the perfect lie a person like me could ever come up with.

Think about it, life without friends is not enjoyable at all—absolutely not!

It's a pale color of music, an incomplete phase of life.

When you were younger, what have you done and what have you didn't?

Did you ever think about graduating or continuing to college? Or did you think of having a job or even having a family?

In this life, we are on our own and the choices we have are for ourselves either. The only thing to do is choose the best for our own good— for our own benefits... Do you find this statement agreeable or a mere bluff?

Whether or not, it is your choice to believe...

Do you believe in the "red string of fate?"

In fact, In that manipulative argument which goal is to make everyone believe that there will always be good things to happen in the near future... Anyone could be deceived.

To believe or not it's always you to decide.

Another fact, our fate is an scripture of the future. No matter how hard we try, changes is only a bleary image.

Reading this, you might already get my point

—We are dancing in the Music of Life and Life flows in the Rhythm of Music.

"...Huwaaaaa"

—Yawning...

What a hot weather again today.

Well, even if its already autumn, summer just came to an end.

Walking on an empty road, the warm yet chilling wind of the fall carries the dried leaves away and across the path that I am taking.

I took a glance around, what an eerie scene it was.

The empty road, the warm breeze, and the silence of the surrounding... Probably because I was a bit early for school again today.

After a moment the sun rose and gave away its glittering light.

I made a pause and lifted up my hand covering my lightly smilling face from the fascinating rays of it.

Once again the warmth breeze of the autumn blows swaying my unshortened forelocks.

Feeling it, my eyes involuntarily closed and the hand covering my face dropped initiatively to its normal position.

While still spacing out,

*Thug-Thug-Thug!*

"Ahhhccckkk!"

A consecutive glorious slap out of nowhere landed on my back...

"...'Ahhcckk?' Hahaha, clasic..."

"He-he!"

"Good morning, Glerene!"

Without even asking, I already known who the perpetrators was...

"Hey, you guys!"

Slightly annoyed, I said while gently rubbing my greatly abused back.

As I took a turn, three familiar faces with a refreshing smile appeared before me...

"Yo!"

"Sup!"

"Morning!"

To put it more accurate, My socially comrades and in the term of earth is so called friends.

(A/T Just ignore that long useless term. 'kay?)

And with that magnificent greetings, another long ordinary day of my highschool life had began.

—

If you're wondering my name Glerene Hikari. An ordinary student living a simple normal life.

Just as they said "being normal is the best" and I do believe that.

If I have to choose to change or to live a different life, I'd rather live as I am now.

I prefer being normal after all.

Although I have something that—No, I'd rather keep it secret for now.

Well, its nothing really special, it's just maybe... A little scary topic for me.

Well, if you're asking about my school life...

I'm a student of a simple academy with few friends, few because I prefer them fewer...

However that reasoning is a 100% lie.

They were few, probably because I lack the ability to socialize, and having a girlfriend is not an exception of my lacking.

In fact, I have only three or rather four of them... Despite all that, I am satisfied having only them.

Well, We've been together since middle school so, I can say that the bond we share was more like brothers.

We laughed together, slack off together, and do stupid stuffs together.

Silly yet remarkable, a bond that is worth living for!...

However, for some reason that bond never last longer than I have been expecting Or rather long enough for fate to come severe it.

One week before the semestral break of my first year highschool, my treasured normal life had been distorted.

Due to an unexpected concern, my family have to move to another place.

I don't really know why, but we need to.

*CRINNNNNGGGG*

A long loud familiar sound echoed around the school campus, Likely emitting an "okay that's it for today, go home fellas" sound in the ears of every students.

However for some reason, me and my proudly so called friends remained in the almost empty classroom. Probably to discuss a certain topic.

"Why all of the sudden?!"

With a distorted expression, Ceddy asked in shock. Loud enough to fill the room with his slightly yelling tone.

Ceddy Akira is the closest among my friends and the only one who knows almost everything about me.

A person I can speak to without a doubt.

He's a hottie and not to mention the famous of the group.

High grades, good looking, sports genius and the girls trends.

"Hey, hey, hey! What is this all about, huh, Glerene! Can you explain this at least?!"

Pinching both sides of my face, Mark yelled that everyone in the room, aside from us who also decided to stay late stopped and stared at us.

Mark Kajiura is the one who brings fun within the group, and the one who changes the mood when everything seems to be boring.

Though he seemed stupid, he can do things smoothly when it comes to fun making.

"Ssshhh, Mark! don't shout that loud, look around they're staring at us! I'm sure Glerene has his own reason for this! Right, Glerene?".

Taking Mark's hand off my face, he spoke smoothly, That's Kelvin Yukihira, the asset of the group.

Handsome and polite, girls fall for his kindness and perfect combination of his appearance and attitude.

Compared to them I'm nothing but a normal highschool student.

I maybe got higher grades than Ceddy, but when it comes to appearance...

He's too handsome to be my competition.

If you're wondering about my looks... Please don't bother.

Also my accountability as a guy is being twisted by the nonecessity thought like "He is a Homo!" (A/T I'm a 100% guy damn it!)

It is probably because, I only have three friends, all boys, and never once talk to anyone besides them. Specially to women...(A/T aside from my family of course...)

Well, to achieve something like my attitude. All you need to do is experience a dreadful past... I guess.

I can play any musical instruments, and even it is a total lie, grandpa told me I was an exception when it comes to music.

He is an unreliable source, he's an oldman after all. Oh, wait—I forgot he's actually dead ages ago. (Sorry grandpa!)

However, no one knows about it, not one even in my group, not even Ceddy.(A/T I was talking about the music)

Why? Another secret! Tee-hee.

Oh! I almost forgot, to tell the truth there's this single person who knows everything about me.

Who might it be? For now I'll leave it to your imagination.

—Sighing

"Guys, I will be leaving one week from now."

Telling them, I faked a smile.

"But no need to worry we will be chatting right? We will still met each others, come on! Cheer up guys!"

"Idiot, you are the one who need to be cheered up. Look at your hair, its all messed up!"

Ceddy responded, mercilessly fondled my head.

"Whaaaaat!"

"Yup, stupid! Look at your necktie, is that how we used to tie them? It's all crooked up!"

Lifted his hands in a "what a dummy" pose, Mark added without even considering the mood.

"Shut up and die already!"

I pouted as I turned red due to embarrassment.

"Hey, hey. stop it you two. Don't make fun of Glerene!"

Kelvin interfered, at least I felt like I was saved!

"Kelvinnnn, You're so cool!"

Combining my hands, facing kelvin, I said with a sparkling puppy eyes, with Ceddy behind me.

"But Glerene you should be aware that your uniform is really messed up."

Kelvin added with a Light laugh shown on his gentle face.

"Noooooooo!!!! I thought I was saved, I just wanna die!"

"Hahahahaha"

The three of them laughed as if they're having their stomach ache.

Well, That's not something new, they always act like that when serious things come around.

"Glerene... We will be missing you a lot!"

Ceddy with a smile, he took his hands off my head and placed it to my shoulders from behind.

"Of course, we will! Men, don't cry when we're apart okay?!"

Mark added with a light smile on his face, bumping his fist to my shoulder.

He's stupid, I know, but everything sounds so touching when he took things seriously.

"Glerene, don't ever forget to email us okay? We will really, really miss you!"

Again with his smiling face Kelvin speaks smoothly that almost made me cry.

Hearing those words made me stare at them in a teary wide-eyes...

"Everyone!"

I cried with my puppy eye technique and jumped to them aiming for a hug.

"Yikes, gef off! GLERENE!!!!"

They shouted and kicked me away.

"Hahahahahahaha"

That time we laughed hardly as if it will be our last time hanging together.

"I wish we can always be like this, guys!"

Faking a smile, I said trying to hide my broken expression.

" 'Kay, let's go home. It's really getting late here!"

I'm really trying my best to act naturally, 'cause I know I'd be busy packing my stuff in the next days coming.

They have such sad voices... Just now!
