A Sweet Secret Love

Prologue: The Beginning

I always stare at the disappearing figures of each student every afternoon. They would look back but eventually avert their gazes. It has been how many years? I don't know anymore. I guess it has been a long time ever since I woke up in this place.

This school really looks familiar to me. As long as I have remembered, I used to study here. Yeah, with my classmates and friends. But, I don't see them anymore around here. Maybe…they transferred to the other schools.

I… I tried to get out of this school's compound. But…There seems to be an imaginary wall or something that keeps me from getting out.

In the previous years, I met a lady who can actually see me. We had this nice chat. And I showed her around this school. When it's her time to leave, she told me that if I want to see the world outside of this school, I have to find someone like her who would help me. If that person agreed, I can freely see the outside world, and she assured me I can find my body easily. She also said that 'that person' will soon arrive.

Of course, I waited…and waited….but as time passes…I got tired of waiting. That lady came back and gave me a mirror. She said that it can help me take a glance on the outside world just by looking at it. It has been really useful to me. I finally viewed the places I want to see outside. One day, I accidentally used it to make one of the students saw me. They broke into a run and began screaming after they saw my transparent body. I suddenly felt alone again.

Time passed by. The seasons changed. Holidays came. Snow started to fall. Flowers started to bloom….but still..I'm right here in Seigaku…not able to go out... I'm not really into seeing the outside world so much.. I just want to find my body and be alive again. Hey! I know I'm not dead yet…Mou…But that is what I feel and what I believe!

Who am I? I'm Ryuzaki Sakuno, a girl with long auburn hair, tied in two long braids. And….This is where my story starts.

A/N: Love's A Miracle by DreamsRMyLifeinspired me to write this. It gave me the idea. Hehe..So, I wanna say thanks to her.

Sakuno is not so lonely and sad here…Just a little bit..She sounded so sad because she doesn't have any companion to talk to.. Don't worry... I promise the future chapters will not be too dramatic. So tune in!

-whoa! the prologue became a drabble..525 words...haha..my first time to write a chapter so short..hihi...
