Everything changed after we moved to my grandparents home town, my grandfather recently died and my mom decided that we need to move to my grandmother's house to comfort her and I'm not sure If we're gonna live there forever..... And it became true... Ahh... the cold breeze from outside is.... so relaxing... so comfortable .. so beautiful.... Takes me back to when I was in grade school. When we were still in my hometown.. I would always sit in the park bench and draw the beautiful cherry blossoms being blown by the strong yet soft breeze of the wind.. i know weird right? It just makes me feel... free It made me tear up.. I don't know why, and then suddenly a boy came and gave me a handkerchief saying "why do you always cry when you see trees?" "Its none of your business!" " My mom always said that if a girl cries, try to find out what made her cry." " Its not that I won't tell you, I can't, it just happened." " Well then make sure you tell me someday why you were crying in front of trees. I need to go now my mom is looking for me. Bye!" " bye. " The very first time I had a conversation with a boy... it was pretty awkward. But then after that, He never came back. And weeks after my grandpa died... I move to my grandmas hometown and hoping to find new friends, and luckily , There were several of them , I'm not actually the type of person to make such friends but because of that boy, even though it was just a few sentences of him talking to me, it felt like we were friends for a long time. Just like his mother said, I would always find that problem that made my friends suffer or cry. Which I guess the reason i had more friends. I'm still doing my old habits, I found two cherry trees near the park. And start to draw, because cherry trees bloom once in a while, but I never forget that day, hoping we would see each other again, would he still remember me? After all these years, after all the emotionless words I said to him would we still be friends? After all of these I still can't remember why I cried that time. "Why did I cry in front of something beautiful?" " Its because you were amazed by how beautiful life is, you cried because of how life can create problems that almost cost you your life and how it makes you wanna take it, but still it provides you people who can be with you and help you go through your pain and create something so beautiful and peaceful like the trees in front of us." Tears come falling down into my eyes when I heard those words, maybe he's right , maybe that's the reason i was crying ,not because of of the sadness in my heart but because of the joy I was feeling that time. Hold on, the guy behind me.. " i thought i knew you from somewhere , and I was right, you still have my handkerchief, I was always looking for the girl who always looks at trees and starts to draw them. And it turns out you're the only girl I know who does that." "I'm Furanashi Aki by the way.. I know this has a lot to take in but, after all of these years, after every cherry blossoms fall after one another, do you still remember me?" "I- im Takahashi Ayumi a-nd o-ofcourse I- I sob *sob*" "Hey don't cry, I'm actually really happy we finally meet again, would you like to be my friend? I know it sounds very childish but I'm serious." The sun sets differently this time, normally, it makes me scared that what if there's no tomorrow, but now my heart calmed and the skies made me relaxed and the sunset made me feel comfortable and warm. As the sun sets, as the night sets in and as the cherry blossoms fall after another, the boy I wanted to be friends with , finally became mine..
