Chapter 1: Years of Regretting

It has been 10 years… 10 LONG years and Chihiro still haven't heard a word from him. It was 10 years ago, when Chihiro and her parents were moving. They came across an abandoned theme park, where it lead to a place called the "Spirit World." It wasn't the world that people go to after they died, it was a place full of witches, monsters and of course, living spirits.

Chihiro remembered how scared she was when she was there. Her parents followed the scent of food that was meant for spirits and gobbled it all up. Yubaba, who was the witch in charge of the land, turned Chihiro's parents into pigs. Chihiro was then left alone, lost, terrified and confused.

Chihiro remembered everything there and she missed it. Her friends, her granny, even the mean old witch Yubaba, but most of all, she missed him. He was the one that had helped her when she was very young and he was the one that helped her again 10 years ago, freeing her parents and letting Chihiro go back to the human world. He was the boy that Chihiro dreamed of every night. No one could ever replace the spot where he stands in Chihiro's heart. He was Nigihayami Kohaku Nushi, mostly known as Haku. He was the spirit of the Kohaku River. Haku had promised they would see each other again, but where was he now?

Before Chihiro had left the Spirit World, Yubaba gave her a test. If she failed the test, her parents would have stayed as a pig and she would stay in the Spirit World. Chihiro was actually smart enough to pass the test. From time to time, Chihiro would ask herself why she ever leaved. She missed Haku so much that she daydreams all the time.

"Why did I ever leave?" Chihiro murmured to herself.

"Are you okay Chihiro?" asked her friend.

Chihiro quickly snapped out of her daydreaming. Chihiro is 20 years old now and is attending an art school.

"Yeah, I'm fine, just tired waiting at this line-up." answered Chihiro.

"Well you better be awake for your nice class." her friend said.

Luckily, it was Friday today. Chihiro always loved the weekends. Every weekend, Chihiro would go to the remaining parts of the Kohaku River once she gets off work. Even though it takes her a long time to drive there, she knew that it was the only way for her to be close to Haku. Being apart from Haku for 10 years had often made her cry while being at his river. She missed him so much. When Chihrio gets some free time during the weekdays, she would go through the same path that lead her to the Spirit World, wishing that she'll see Haku again, but everytime she tried, it just lead her to an empty field of grass.

When Chihiro was off work, she drove at a steady speed to the Kohaku River. Most of the Kohaku River runs underground, below all the buildings, but there were still streams left of it. Chihiro sat by beside one of the streams.

"It's me again Haku, I know it's the same every week, but I really do miss you guys…especially you."

As always, there was no reply from him, but she continued anyways.

"Look what I drew this week; it's a drawing of me and you."

When she put the drawing away, she could feel her tears coming.

"Can you hear me? I shouldn't have leave. I wouldn't have if it weren't for my parents and if you haven't promised that we would see each again. I dream of you every night, hoping you'll come for me, but it's been 10 years Haku! I can't live forever like you, when am I going to see you?"

Chihiro started to feel angry now and tears were running down her cheeks now.

"Am I just the stupid girl that has been waiting for you for 10 years? Do you still remember your promise?"

She paused for a minute.

"It's getting dark now, I have to go."

As Chihiro started to get up, a few drops of her tears few into the streams of the Kohaku River. Now they were part of the Kohaku River.

SO THIS WAS THE END OF CHAPTER ONE, STAY TUNED FOR MORE!
