Days had passed since Kenji and Aikasa’s painful goodbye. Until now, she couldn’t grasp the idea that they were already through. The past few nights were pure torture. She wept until she fell asleep with Kenji in her mind. People could say that she was heartless for choosing her dream over him but ironically, she did not regret every decision she had made that day. Yes, she was hurt but she didn’t regret doing it. She jus...

Aikasa laid awake staring at her ceiling. The day didn’t go against her better judgment for it was still raining outside and she didn’t know how she was supposed to go and meet Kenji.  Well...  The hell with it.  It’s now or never. She got up and headed to the bathroom to wash herself. She slipped out of her nightdress and put a comfortable one that would suit this harsh weather. She then combed her long wavy hair and sta...

  Not knowing you was the best decision I should have made But my universe and destiny both conspired so that our paths would someday meet. The pull you have for me is so strong. So strong that resisting from it seems so wrong.   I have always been entranced by the wonders you have shown. And slowly, the emotions inside me have started to grow. Had I fought and ended it before it began Would I have prevented these longing...

Aikasa woke up from the noise outside her door. Sighing, she got up and opened it. “What?” she asked, wiping the sleep out of her eyes. Akihiro stared at her sister, amusement was visible in his eyes. He shook his head. “Dinner is ready sleepy head!” he grinned. “Dinner?! W-what-” Aikasa stammered, her eyes wide as she threw a glance at her bedside clock. 6:45 o’clock. In the evening. Oh great! She slept all day and forgo...

Aikasa’s eyes had gone wide as she processed the information Kenji just blurted out at her. She just remained there standing while staring at him. “Aren’t you happy? We are finally getting married…” Kenji asked her softly. He stepped closer and reached for Aikasa, but she immediately stepped back and glared at him. “You can’t do this to me…” she whispered, her voice shaking. Aikasa’s eyes started to well up as she tried t...

The place I am searching, Is calling my heart with yearning. Eyes that are brimming with tears, Fighting the longing I have been feeling these years. Telling myself, "Never let the red string break", For soon I will definitely be there. To the place where I truly belong, To the only place, I call home.    

While having breakfast, no one dared to speak. It was always practiced in the Sakuraba household. At a young age, the Sakuraba children were taught to have proper etiquette. Apparently, their ancestors practiced discipline at all times. After their quiet breakfast, Genjiro decided to broke the silence.   “You seem to have something in your mind, Aikasa. What is it?” Contemplating, Aikasa answered, “Father, I was accepted...

Aikasa lied awake staring at the ceiling of her room. Sighing, she got up and fixed the bed. She put on rather presentable clothes and fixed herself before going out of the room. While making her way into the kitchen, she saw her mother preparing for breakfast. “Good morning mother!” enthusiastically greeting her. “Good morning,” her mother greeted back with a soft smile grazing her thin lips. “Where’s father?” Throwing a...

Standing in front of Principal Ozawa’s office door made her feel shivers all over her body. She does not know the reason why she was being called, but Tachibana-sensei told her it was something important. Thus, here she was. She knocked several times and waited until she heard Principal Ozawa’s voice beckoning her to enter. She reached for the doorknob and quietly entered the room. He was seated on his large but seemed to...

  Misery         The cold minty breeze of the night Helps me cease the tension I feel in my mind The light that’s coming from the moonlight Keeps my soul calm throughout the night.   The empty feeling that lingers in my heart Is slowly ripping my refuge apart It seems like I always wanted to do was cry But I can’t help my soul no matter how I try.   These kind of feelings are pushing my senses away And you’re the only one...

One gaze at youI know you’re the only one that’s trueHowever there’s something in youSomething in you that makes it mysteriously you.   Do you remember the first time we met?My world seems to forgetThe agony and sorrows I’ve feltIt disappears as the sun goes set. You have given me the feelingsThe feelings I thought I never neededThe feeling of being luckyThe feeling of being loved again. As the time passes byMy feelings f...

I hear your whispers,   One silent cold night. I find it hard to decipher, What you are whispering about.   The stars are scattered through out the sky Brimming light that is coming from the moonlight. I composed myself for your near arrival, You, my love, are truly ethereal.   Take me along with you, For right now I am feeling blue. I want to feel every inch of you, For me to know if you are really true.   Take me along...
