Petals of Love: Ch 10

Chapter 10 : Sides story of Kiwasaki Jun

When I was 6 years old... That night.

"All you do is going to bar!!! You never think about me and your son!" mom shouted to my dad.

"Shut up!!" dad slap mom.

"You... Should find a new work than going to bar and spend your money in alcohol..." holding her face.

That night I saw my parents fought to each other.. A few months later mom got divorced to my dad.

Mom find a new guy to marry..

"Jun, this will be your new father.." she introduced him to Jun.

I cant tell a word.. To mom seems nothing happened..

A few years passed.. I thought we will have a happy family to my new step father yet...

I was in high school..

Mom tried to kill herself.

I heard from our neighbors that she's in the hospital and I went immediately in her room.

I dont know the reason why she tried to kill herself..

When I open the door... Step dad was there.. Looking to her sleeping face.

"Uhmm.."

"Ah.. Jun. You came." he said to me with a smiled.

"How's mom?"

"The doctor said she's already fine.."

I keep quiet.. A few days later mom release in the hospital. I take care of her when step dad is not around..

Step dad went back home and straight to my mom's room. I went outside.. He just smiled at me.

Outside our house there's a small sakura tree.. I look at the sakura tree when suddenly the wind blows.

"Sakura tree only takes a few weeks and will bloom on the next spring.." I thought to myself..

I take a walk until I satisfied myself. And the wind blows again. I stop walking.. I saw a sakura petals falling. I turn around and I was surprised in what I saw..

It was a big tree of sakura..

"Woah. Its beautiful." I smiled.

That time I saw the tree.. I thought to myself that if the spring ends.. The sakura tree will ends too. Those pinkish petals will bloom on the next spring again..

I leave and went back home.. The stressed that I feel was gone.

The other spring year came. I visited that sakura tree again.

The wind blows and the pinkish petals of sakura I love blows by the wind and fall. I catch a piece of it and open my hand.. I smiled after seeing it.. My ring phones..

"Yes.. Kiwasaki Jun here..."

My step dad called me. I dont have his number.. He called me to tell that he's going to be late and asked me to take a look to my mom. And I leave.

I remember this year is another spring season. I was too excited to visit the sakura tree. I came to that place again.

Every time I look at it I always forgot all stressed I have. The wind blows and turn my head while holding my hair. I saw a guy looking at me..

He walk towards me..

"Hi.." He greet me..

"Hi."

"Sorry. Seems that I distracted you." he said with a low voice..

"Its fine. Just the wind suddenly blow."

It was my first time to see him and talk to him. I thought to myself that maybe this guy just came to visit this tree..

He said he will going to leave but I stop him, I grab him in his hand and I was surprised in what I did. Just not to see my ackward attitude I just ask his name.

"Sakurahane Kiseki.."

"Ah... Me-" He suddenly said my name and I was shocked that how did he know my name.

I asked him how did he know my name. And he said that he know me already when I started visiting this tree. And I was become speechless. We keep silent in a few minutes.

"Ah.. Sorry but I have to go." I said to him.

"Okay.." he smiled at me.

I leave and went back home..

I graduated already in high school..

I took an exam in the university I like to take.. I received the results.. I read it on my way home from convenient store and I passed the entrance exam. I'm happy that time..

But a month before I entered the university..

"How can you keep it a secret from me?!" mom was crying while talking to my step dad.

"Its not that I keep it a secret from you.."

"You... You said you dont have a previous family but what I saw is this picture!!" mom tear off the picture she's holding.

I dont know what kind of picture is that...

"If you said it to me earlier... Lets divorce." mom said it while crying.

"B-but..."

"Just do it!" she shouted.

It was a month that they got divorce and I stayed in a small apartment near in the university I'm going to attend.

Mom stayed in my grandmother house to take care of her. I was always surprised that to my mom seems nothing happened..

A few days later.. It was already morning and I have a dream about the guy I saw in the sakura tree.

The day of my first day in University.. I fell in my bed and woke up...

"Gah! That dream again.." I look on the clock and prepared all my things and left the apartment.

And I reached the university, its spring season and I look in the petals falling..

When I came to the room.. A guy tap me and greet me.. For me it seems nostalgic..

And that days my new life starts full of love..
