There was a man named Atsuko who peacefully living in a city where powers exist and dreams always come true. His father died in an accident, so only his mother and his younger brother Haruko left in his life. One morning, his young brother Haruko decided to wake him up. Suddenly, he came up with a scheme to wake his big brother. He slowly opens the door and slowly bends his knees. Then, he jumped so high to reach his brother’s bed, and shout so loud even their mother heard him downstairs, “Brother! Wake up!”. His feet landed on Atsuko’s belly, and Atsuko groans in pain. Haruko was laughing even their neighbours heard them. “You….evil brat!!” Atsuko said with a scary look on his face. Haruko suddenly trembled in fear and can’t move even an inch. Unexpectedly, Atsuko hit his brother’s head and leave a bump on it. Then, they start arguing with each other. Their mother went to Atsuko's room to check them out. When she arrived...

“You brat!! Why did you do that?!”. Atsuko said.

“I just want you to wake up!!” Haruko said.

“You called that waking up!? It’s not waking up! It’s killing me up!” Atsuko said.

“Eh?! Brother, you’re so ungrateful to me…Thanks to me, you are never late for school! You’re just a lazy sloth that doesn’t want to leave his bed…” Haruko teasing.

“W-Wha?! (Grin) I see....pretending to be smart. Like you all perfect in everything, but you’re just tone-deaf when it comes to

singing!” Atsuko teasing.

“(Embarrassed) What!! Big Brother is a-” Haruko added.

“Haruko is a-” Atsuko added.

“Stop you two!” Aiko said (Name of Atsuko and Haruko’s mother).

“Mom! It's-” Both said.

“Stop!!! (Huff). Say nothing more than that. Once those words leave your mouths, you’ll never be able to take them back.” Aiko said.

“But-” Both added.

“Words are like swords. If you use them the wrong way, they’ll turn into ugly weapons. There are cases of broken relationships that could have lasted a lifetime if not for verbal abuse. Once you sever your ties, you might not see each other ever again.” Aiko added.

Both were speechless, then suddenly Haruko began to talk “Big Bro, I’m sorry.”.

“Forgive me too, Haruko. It's my fault, for calling you a brat.", Atsuko said.

"Me, too.", Haruko added.

Their mother smiled and said, “Cut the crap, you two. Let’s eat, before the food gets cold.”.

The three of them went to the kitchen and have a sweet breakfast. They've prepared their bags and other school materials they need. Their mother was taking a bath and while Atsuko and Haruko are waiting they talked to each other.

"Big Bro, do you have a dream?", Haruko said.

"Well, kinda. But, I'm not exactly sure if it would come true." Atsuko replied.

"Well, what is it?", Haruko asked.

"(Smiled) To be with her. Forever." Atsuko whispered.

After they've finished their breakfast, they prepared themselves for a long walk. Their mother made them their lunch and then separated. The two of them went to the road where they usually go and talking with each other peacefully.

"Big Bro! Can you make me a favour?".

"Yeah, sure."

"Can you make me a tamagoyaki(a Japanese dish that is a sweet rolled egg), after school?"

"Sure, but promise me don't be late for dinner, okay?"

"Pft! Don't worry, big bro. I won't be late~"

"Hm.....but Hana asks me if you want to go to their house, to have some fun."

"(Noticed) Is that true?!"

"Pft! Hahaha!"

"Why are you laughing?"

"So, the rumours are true~ you have a crush on Hana, don't you?"

"W-What?!! No!!"

"Then, why are you excitedly answer to me like that."

"It's a......"

"(Chuckles) So adorable, you're blushing!"

"I'm not! Don't change the topic, Big Bro. You're jokes a re not funny."

"(Teasing and laughing) Oh, look it's Hana!"

"Where?! Where?!"

"Hahaha. Tricked you."

"It's not funny!! Stop doing that!"

"Hahaha."

"Promise me big bro to make me some, okay?"

"Yes, yes, I will. But, in one condition."

"What is it?"

"Kiss Hana."

"Eh?! (Blushed)"

"Hahaha. So cute. (Pat) (Pat)"

"Big bro, stop teasing me."

"Hahahaha."

"(Haruko making a pout face). Big bro, I hate you!"

"It's only a joke. Don't be serious."

"Well it's not funny. Oh! It's my school. See you later, Big Bro!"

"Bye!"

"Big Bro! Don't forget my tamagoyaki, okay?"

"I won't!"

After bringing Haruko, Atsuko continued to walk. He peacefully humming on the street and feel the breeze of the wind. "I wish my dream is her and dream with her forever", Atsuko whispered himself.

He sees a torii gate near a tree and went there a moment. (A torii gate is a traditional Japanese gate most commonly found at the entrance of or within a Shinto shrine, where it symbolically marks the transition from the mundane to the sacred).

He slowly enters that Torii gate. He prayed with all his heart with a desire of making his dreams come true. Suddenly, when he slowly opens his eyes, he noticed that the whole place became dark. All he can see is himself shining. After that, a thin like water string was slowly tied in his hands. He looked where it is connected, but failed. Suddenly, the string became aggressive and a massive circular gate appeared in front of him. He was shocked by what he saw when a huge shadow appeared from nowhere and causes a massive air to hit him.

The string suddenly lingered and forcefully entered his belly. Atsuko couldn't help it but to shout in pain. He tried to pull it out but the harder he tried the painful it was. Suddenly, the mysterious shadow walks towards him and said: " Don't try to pull it out. It is a sign that you are the chosen one".

"What? The- chosen one?" Atsuko asked.

"Yes, but for now you'll retur to your world" The mysterious shadow replied.

Suddenly, he wakes up under the tree. He tried to figure out what happened to him, but couldn't find an answer. Suddenly, he realizes that he was shirtless at that time and finds where is his uniform and bag. When he tried to wear them he saw a pattern glowing in his belly. He freaked out and said, "W-What is this?!". He slowly touch his belly but nothing happened. He thought that it may be the string that lingered his belly. The pattern was slowly fading and Atsuko just ignores it. Then, he wears his uniform and bag and continued walking. While walking he deeply thinks about what happened, but felt dizzy when he thinks about it. He just continues to walk and forget about it.

After what happened to Atsuko, he continues to walk to school. While walking, he suddenly heard a rustling sound near a bush, he thought it's just his imagination but the rustling became scarier and louder. He was wondering what it is, so he slowly walks to it. As he walks to it, the sound became louder. He trembled in fear and can't move an inch. Unawares that an unknown creature jumps at him and forcefully drags him to the ground. Atsuko nearly hit his head at that time. After a while, Atsuko realized that the creature that drags him to the ground was none other than Shizua, her childhood friend and her crush for almost 10 years. He blushed because Shizua is at top of him. Shizua noticed it and start speaking.

"Atsuko, why are you blushing?"

"I-It's Nothing."

"Atsuko, I don't believe you. (Boing)"

"(Atsuko blushing looking at Shizua's breasts bouncing at his chest)"

"(Noticed). Atsuko, what a pervert. Taking advantage of the situation."

"It's not!"

"Then, why are you blushing?"

"I'm not! The sun, maybe the sun causes it. Anyway, get off me Shizua. Maybe someone will see us and think we're having a-"

"Having a?"

"(Blushed) You know...that thing."

"Hm?"

"Nevermind that, get off me, Shizua!'

"Fine."

(Stands)

"Jeez, Shizua don't do that to me ever again."

"Hahaha, but you're excited about it."

"I'm not! Shizua stops acting like a child!"

"(Gloom) I guess so. (Starts to cry) Are you mad at me?"

"(Panicking) I'm sorry Shizua, Forget about it, um....stop crying, stop crying."

"(Chuckling) (Pat) Atsuko, so cute, I'm not crying."

"(Irritated) Anyway let's go to school. We'll be late."

" My, my. Why are you mad?"

"I'm not mad okay?"

"(Suddenly hugs) Atsuko, Don't be mad. (Sniff) Atsuko smells nice."

" Shizua stop it! It's embarrassing!"

"(Chuckles) Atsuko you're blushing!"

"I'm not!" (Continue to walks)

- Atsuko point of view -

"Shizua Murasaki. 18 years old. A high school girl whose dream is to be a teacher. Loves fanfic and cooking. She's so mindful, kind, responsible, cheerful, smart, and a cute person. But that's not the reason why I want her to be my dream girl. 10 years ago while I'm still 8, when my father died. She saw me inside a schoolyard and crying, he walks towards me and asks why I'm crying. I said that my father died in an accident. She gave her a handkerchief and help me to wipe my tears. She helped me to stay strong and be a man. Then, suddenly she kisses me on the cheek, and that's the time when I fall in love with her. She went home after that and gave her handkerchief to me and I kept that handkerchief for many years. I want to be with her, so I'm trying my best to be with her forever."

"Oh! Shizua I see the school let's go before we get late"

"You dummy, it's only 7 in the morning the class will start at 8."

"Hahaha, my bad. (What an idiot I am)."

"Don't be upset, you're not an idiot"

"(She read my mind. In this world with power exist, I think it's not surprising.)"

"Let me clarify it, you're not an idiot. You're just a cute and innocent person. (Wink)"

"(Blushed). A-An-Anyway, let's go to the front gate."

"Okay, whoever gets there first, wins!"

"Shizua, Wait!" (running)

- Shizua point of view -

"I know that you love me so I want to say you someday, I love you too, Atsuko."
