Introduction

introduction

The waves collide quickly, creating a strong roar (like a thunder sound) and a thick foam, and its slightly dark color has turned black, announcing the clouds gathering together, warning of soon-to-be rain.

The girl retreated several steps from the shore, escaping from the sea water reaching her feet; she is afraid that her feet will wet the way that fate wet her heart.

She looked back at the raging sea with silent empty expressions, no one would think in mind if he saw her like this that there is a vortex of thoughts revolving in her mind, she was an expert in wearing a cold, fake mask and deceiving those around her. She was one of the people who cared about the feelings of others at the expense of her own, ignoring all the pain that struck her because she simply did not like others to worry about her.

Many times she was the one who beautified herself by smiling in front of others, explaining to them that she is fine and well, and that she is in fact overwhelmed by her sorrows and misfortunes on her own, clinging to herself.

She dropped her head to cover her mouth and nose with her neck scarf and stretched her left fist on the coat over her chest strongly and then moved her head (half covered) to the right and left several times Before she lifted it up and then exhaled a long exhalation, creating steam around her due to the cold of winter and saying audibly to the sea:

_"Yes, I am just like you, sea, no matter how hard the anguish and my heart is filled with scars, a dawn will come that will remove all wounds, to return my heart beat and red as roses... No matter how intense the storms around you, you calm down and clear your water, announcing the beginning of a new season."

She turned her head back a little bit and pressed her right hand on the paper in her coat pocket and said,:

_ "Yes, I've decided, I'm going back to Japan, my origin and my pasture since I was a kid"

and she screamed loudly to the sea:

_"Did you hear, Dad? Did you hear, Mom? I will go back there to continue my life and I will try to face what you mentioned Dad, myself, never worry; I am strong, not broken…. Rest in peace, I love you from the bottom of my heart."

Then she whispered and tears creeping into her cheeks:

_ "Yes, I love you with all my heart, but this time I will try not to hurt my heart to please others."

 

to be continued....

what is that paper that she has? and from who?

Do you  think she can really stop please others and focus on her pleasure?

 

this is my introduction to my novel , hope it enthusiasm you to complete it .

from now on if you find any constructive criticism, please do not hesitate and tell me .

Chapter 1

While he was resting his back on the back of the bed, stretching out his legs and holding with his hands a book on enterprises management, Akashi knocked on the door of his room making a sound like a drum beating without stopping, Hack shouted from the inside:

_"Akashi you damn come in."

Akashi walked into the room with a smile on his face, then said:

_"Who (you damn) is this for? Is it mine!?" And raised his eyebrow with an artificial disapproval.

Hack said with a little nervousness as he looked at him:

_“Did I not tell you thousands of times, do not knock the door like this ?! By God,are you still a small kid ? The door is not a drum, knock it like the rest of humanity, or do you want me to teach you that? ”

Akashi replied with a smile that turned into a short laugh:

_"Hahaha, the important thing is that I managed to provoke you ...."

Hack lowered his legs to the ground and smiled, saying:

_"Yes.... Tell me what do you want?"

_"Nothing, dear brother, I just wanted to tell you that lunch is ready and my mother will set up the world and settle it if you late for more than that. She called you several times but you did not answer her."

Hack scratched his head from behind,

_"Sorry I didn't hear her; I was inundated with the book."

The two brothers went down the stairs together as they were racing to get to the dining table first.

Akashi arrived before and said proudly:

_"I won again."

Hack put his hands in his pocket and said lightly:

_"Huh, that's because I let you win my will."

Then Mikoto, their mother spoke with a smile radiating from her eyes:

_"You two will never grow old, you act like children. Let's remind me of your age?"

Akashi advanced toward his mother and kissed her head,

_"thirty-three years old."

Hack also walked toward his mother and kissed her hands, saying:

 _"twenty-eight years old."

They all laughed, including their father kagami, who was watching what was happening around him with pleasure, and then he said:

_"Come on, come on, sit down, the food will cool down."

While eating, kagami directed his speech to Hack:

_"Hack my son ... I forgot to tell you,I have chosen a professor for the College of Commerce to make up for the academic shortfall to teach some administrative subjects to our fourth year students and .."

Hack interrupted his father politely:

_"Dad, you know that I wanted to give these lessons to students, you know that I love teaching."

_"My son .. you are my deputy (vice president of the university) , you should not forget that. As you know, I do not always exist, you are the one who runs the university and handles all things."

Then he went on with a smile:

_"The professor is under probation for three months. If she succeeds she will be proven. Otherwise, I will dismiss her… Now you know what to do."

He ended his sentence winking to Hack, then Hack smiled broadly and said:

_"Yes, I am the one who know hhm."

 

In the afternoon ..

Akashi went down the stairs and went to his mother. He found her in the library in her lovely place. She was sitting on the sofa with a book in her hands .. He saw her immersed in what she was reading since she had not heard him when he entered, then he stood in front of her and said:

_"Ehm Ehm my mother ..” and waved with his hand, then Mikoto raised her gaze.

_" Oh Akashi, are you going now?"

He sat next to his mother and surrounded her shoulders with his arm:

_"Yes, my mother ... as you know I have to personally supervise our chain of restaurants and our cafe, not just their management."

_"Yes, I know, son." and patted his back.

Akashi asked,

_"What are you reading? Ah novel this time, mmmm beautiful, have fun." He stood and waved goodbye.

******************

Sakra went to the window of the salon (the hall), opened it, grabbed the edges of the window from below, took her head out of the window, and inhaled forcefully until it filled her lungs with air, then returned her head and slept with it on her sleeping arms at the window and said in a sleepy, almost dreamy voice:

_"Ooh, how much I miss this air, I can hardly believe I have been in Japan for three weeks now, as if time is a bird flying away in the blink of an eye."

She moved and sat on the couch and looked at her apartment (which is similar to studio) with a smile. She was satisfied and content with it as it was fulfilling the purpose and also to save the money left for her next life.

She went to her room and opened the drawer from the small side table (the commodino) that was beside her bed and took out a folded sheet from it. She sat on the bed and leaned her back on the pillows and put her legs back toward her upper body then opened the paper and read the writing on it for the tenth time

"My dear sweetheart Sakra ,, I am writing this letter to you wishing you a happy and bright life ..

My beautiful daughter, I am now under the waste next to your beloved mother. I know that with my departure you will not have anyone left in this world, but I am confident that you will manage on your own.

Dear Sakra, I am really sorry for what I will tell you now, but you have to trust that I chose the path that will comfort you, my daughter ..

As you know, I lost most of my money in the stock exchange and I no longer have enough money to run the eyeglasses factory, meaning that the factory went bankrupt, which means that hundreds of workers and employees cut off income, which i didn't bear. So, my love, I sold the factory to my friend, Dr. Saito Sejero, who used to travel to me to check my case every period of time , as he no longer practiced the profession of medicine, as he now ran medical device companies.

I asked him at the last time i saw him if he would keep the name of our factory as it is (Hanamishe) and the trademark, he told me that this is difficult, but there is a solution... and that is to marry his son who is called Izuna, so you will be part of the family and it will be easy to keep the name of our factory as it is and he will return it to you.

Dear sweetheart, believe me, Saito is a very good person and I am sure that he will treat you as his daughter, he just wants you to be a member of his family legally.

I ask you to return to Japan and go to Mr. Saito's house as indicated to you in the letter ..

Sakra my love, if you marry his son, you will live happy and you will not be missing anything ..

I deposited all the money left for me into your bank account to support yourself for a period of time ..

I hope you think well and do my will."

Your father who loves you always

Kizashi Hanamishe.

What are your expectations for the next ??

Chapter 2

She folded the letter or the will, as it seemed, and returned it in the drawer and walked towards the mirror and said to herself,

_"My father, you do not know how much your request hurts me. I feel as if I am a tool sold and bought has no value. I know that you want good and what is best for me ... But .. But Dad, not that way. I will do what I find right, so don't worry, I will definitely return the factory to me and the name Hanamishe will remain. "

_"Ah, tomorrow is my first working day, Dad. I am a university professor now, but under trial until I prove myself."

She stretched out her hands and yawned, "Sakra, no, please. This is not the time for sleepiness. Now the time is no more than four and a half ... well the best solution is to walk and get to know the area more."

She wore practical clothes, jeans and a long-sleeved woolen light beige blouse, which covered two-thirds of her palms, and sports shoes, and she combed her hair and left it down, as it was short and reached the middle of her neck. She looked at herself in the mirror one last look and did not put any cosmetics on her face.

She went out of the apartment and went down to the street humming and inspecting the street and the shops. She crossed the street to the other side while she was pulling the sleeves of the blouse to cover her entire hands, and when she reached the opposite side she raised her hands up and started blowing on them and rubbing them together.. while she was in this state of lack of Focus in front of her, suddenly she saw a cat walking towards her so she jumped quickly and started running and backwards to escape from her while she was screaming,

_"Oh my God oh my God please keep her away from me"

while she was running and the cat behind her, a door of cafe opened on her left side so she went in quickly and bumped into a person who was carrying a cup of coffee. the coffee spilled part of it on the ground and part of it on her and on the person .... Fortunately for them that the coffee was not hot, all this happened within a few seconds .. Sakra raised her head towards the person to apologize to him and she said, gasping from the impact of the shock:

_"sorry sir, I'm really sorry I didn't mean it"

He angrily replied:

_"Damn ... don't you look in front of you before entering? Are you stupid?"

Akashi heard the man screaming, so he went to them to inquire about what had happened, and before Sakra began talking, he looked at the man, saying:

_"I apologize on her behalf and ask again for your coffee that you want on my account ... I think it is appropriate not to shout at children and teenagers."

Then Sakra looked at Akashi and said to herself while clenching her teeth,:

_"What is this, damn it, he considers me young .. I put myself in an embarrassing position because of you, you damned cat, I hate you."

The man left the cafe and Akashi stayed near Sakra and asked her,:

_"Hmm, let's say, I hear you, why did you shock the man? I saw you enter the cafe quickly without looking in front of you while you were gasping with your face dyed red !"

_"Frankly, l, I was running away from the cat because I fear the cats."

She finished her sentence softly and looked away from Akashi down.

Then he couldn't help himself laughing out loud, crying out:

_"Are you really afraid of cats! Cats are cute creatures that do not scare Sorry I don't mean to belittle you, believe me, but your view really makes me laugh, seeing you running like this and seeing fear in your eyes, one feels that someone wants to attack you .... not a cat !"

_"Laugh as much as you like, this will not change the reality of my fear. Hahaha, damn, you made me laugh at myself ... by the way, thank you for defending me and also there is information that I want to correct ..."

He raised his eyebrow and tilted his head to the side a little up and said with a smile on his mouth:

_"Go ahead."

She looked into his eyes and said,:

_"I am not a teenager ... I am twenty-four years ."

Akashi eyes widened,

_"Pardon me, I thought you were younger." then smiled and whispered to him self, "This is better."

She said goodbye to him and went out of the cafe, returning to her apartment, waiting for what would come tomorrow

**************

In the evening at night, Kagami knocked on Hack's door and entered it and extended his hand to his son with a file,

_"Hack my son. This file contains the new professor's biography and also has a schedule and dates for her lectures. Check them with your permission."

_"Okay, dad."

Kagami left the room and left Hack to read what was inside the file by himself, before Hack sat on his bed, he opened the file, and as soon as his eye caught a picture of Sakra, his eyeballs widened and his breath rose and his heartbeat was racing madly. He put his hand on his mouth from the shock and sat on Immediately on his bed

_"Is what I see real ?? hahahahah There is no possibility of error hahahah ...It is destiny ??... What is her name?"

He said with smiling , but the trauma of the shock remained on his face:

_"Oh, Sakra Hanamishe, then ... a nice name, aptly named... And what else is there?.... Mmmm she was in the United Kingdom and had a master's degree in project management, very beautiful .. what? One of her hobbies is getting to know the Arab civilization! Really exciting ... and she also speaks Arabic beside Japanese and English, that's really cool."

Hack extended his upper body on the bed while keeping his legs down, closed his eyes with a smile, and let his mind dive into his memories.

In the supermarket at the cashier there was a very young girl, with pink hair, crying next to her mother and saying:

_"Mama I want another ice cream, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"

My mother and I were directly behind them, and when we finished paying the purchases, I rushed out looking for the pink-haired girl and found them close, not far away. I ran towards them and took from my bag my ice cream piece and presented it to the little girl .. I remember at that time how her green eyes turned to a singing meadow because of her extreme joy .. At first her mother objected, but I insisted that I want to give it to her then she agreed ...

Until now, I do not know why i acted like this, but what is certain is that her eyes melted my heart while she was crying ..

I leaned to my left side, raised my legs off the ground, and closed my eyes again.

The second time I met her was when I was 10 years old, yes, my friends and I were playing in the garden and I could see her playing with a blonde girl with sand and making figures with it. She was laughing at that time while talking to the girl. Hearing her laughter caught my attention, and until now, the sound of her laughter rang in my ears.

Akashi knocked on the door and entered, so i sat quickly. I found him very happy in an unusual way, as he did not knock on the door as usual, and now he is sitting humming with himself like an idiot.

I asked him with a smile:

_"What's with you? What happened? You look very happy."

_"Nothing ... just ... Today I met a different kind of cat."
