Note : I've created this story about two years ago, but I've never had the chance to express it in a fiction form, only by drawing. My mom threw the whole stack away after she found out that I was still into drawing anime. T_T So, here I am, typing it down. At least she won't be able to throw my ficcies away, that's for sure. Forgive me if this story possesses any similarities to other stories out there for I have totally no intention of copying other people's ideas.

Prologue.

It was a quiet evening around the certain reserved area, which surrounded a huge hospital, located a few hours drive from the nearest town. The sky hovering high above were in a gloomy state, including the dark solemn clouds which were in a dangerous shade of grey and pregnant with rain. A hungry cold breeze swept across the lonely place, dragging low whispers and murmurs all around, blowing against the tall steady trees. A small four-year-old girl was seen sitting on the lush green grass as she hugged her only companion, a stuffed pink bunny in her cradling little arms.

"Hijirin's late again...Nee, KumaKuma?", her aqua green eyes gazed warmly at her silent soft toy, amusing the one-sided conversation she was having at the moment before purposely nodding the bunny's soft head in response. Her delicate long hair tousled against the gentle wind, tangling the soft chestnut brown strands. She glanced lightly all around her as she patiently waited for the expected person to arrive at any moment now.

The hospital had a dull colour to it, some parts tinted with paint were threatening to shred off as a sign of its poor age. Ayakoganei Fumi's best friend had been charged to the particular hospital instantly after suspected suffering from a rather serious disease. Since then, none of Shijirou Hijiri's friends ever visited him because of their parents' protest except for Fumi, who'd usually sneaked out of the house to meet him everyday.

"Aa! Hijirin! Fumi waited so long for Hijirin!", Fumi cheerfully exclaimed as she'd finally caught sight of Hijiri strolling towards her in haste, calling out to him using the nickname she took. She got up to her feet and ran towards the certain blonde not too far from her, leaving the pink bunny behind. Usually, Hijiri would present a smile on his adorable face, but this time, it wasn't a smile he flashed, but a light frown instead.

"W-Wait, Fumi-chyan...!", Hijiri mouthed in shock as his best friend went straight through him and stumbled behind his soul-like figure. Fumi deliberately turned towards him with stunned aqua green eyes on the sudden outcome, wondering to herself how could she have passed through his body?

"Hijirin...? Why...?", she asked in a light stammer. Her small body shaking slightly as Hijiri approached her and sat down in front of her. His expression looked like he had a lot of explaining to do, yet so little time he had in exchange.

"Hijiri came in Fumi-chyan's imagination only...", his tender loving voice explained his situation at the moment. Of course, ordinary four-year-olds wouldn't have the slightest bit of idea what was going on and Fumi wasn't an exception. She could only tilt her head and eyed her best friend with a confused expression on her cute face.

"I'm sowwie, Fumi-chyan...Today's the last day we can see each other...", the blonde replied as he lowered his head in guilt. He wasn't supposed to be seeing Fumi in this condition, furthermore telling her his last words before he'd leave for the other world. His solemn ocean blue eyes studied the other girl's face who had a mixture of expressions whirling within her at that very moment.

While Hijiri's body in room 131 lay in a comatose mode, the young boy's soul had drifted towards the next world by fate. There, he was greeted sweetly by a number of guardian angels who kindly explained to him that his lifespan wouldn't last long. It was then he made a decision that he wanted to meet Fumi for the last time before he'd have to go. For that, Hijiri was given a short period of time in order to achieve his promise.

00:10:00

"What...What does Hijirin mean...?", Fumi's childish voice broke the silence surrounding them as she stared at him in demand for a reasonable answer. Fear and concern pounded her young heart as she slowly breathed in soft heaps of air.

"Hijiri has to go somewhere far...", Hijiri replied. He lifted his head to gaze from the ground beneath them to the girl before him with a solemn smile played upon his small lips. The gentle breeze swayed in a rhythmic waltz, causing his soft golden locks to dance against the heavenly wind.

"It's okie! Fumi can find that place to meet Hijirin, nee?", the brunette suggested as she forced a cheerful smile to support her response. Her father had always said that nothing is impossible, but according to Hijiri's expression, the situation they had to face was an exception and overall, inevitable.

"I'm afraid not...", the boy's voice trailed off at the end of the sentence he presented as he slowly shook his head in a non-agreement manner. Fumi's eyes widen at his response. She made an attempt to grip Hijiri's sleeve and gave it a light tug, but to no avail. Crystal clear tears were starting to form at the corner of her eyes which threatened to spill down at any moment.

"No...No...Why must Hijirin go?!", Fumi cried as the tears trickled down her smooth cheek for she couldn't hold them back any longer. Hijiri leaned forward and used his small thumb to brush away her tears gently as she stared back sniffling slightly before smiling solemnly and lightly kissed her temple.

"Don't cry, Fumi-chyan...Please..."

"No...Fumi can't be happy without Hijirin...", she called out softly, trying to reach out for him.

"Hijiri has to go now...Promise that Fumi-chyan won't cry, okie?", those were Hijiri's last words before his shadow-like figure started to drift away, blended with the surrounding, one step away to heaven. Time was running out for the blonde and Fumi could barely see the tears that were flowing down his cheeks as well.

00:00:05

Hijiri likes Fumi-chyan...

"Wha-What did Hijirin say just now...? Fumi didn't hear...!", Fumi swore that she heard Hijiri muffled out something before his image blurred little by little right before the brunette. She didn't hesitate to call out for the boy's attention, but he didn't answer back due to the fact that their communication wasn't getting any good. More tears spilled down the girl's cheeks as she desperately called out to him with high hopes.

00:00:04

"W-Wait!"

00:00:03

Bii...Bii...

"Don't go first! Tell Fumi!"

00:00:02

Doctor! Doctor! This patient!

"Hijirin!"

00:00:01

Bii-!

The rain was Fumi's shelter as she cried frantically underneath the sakura trees. KumaKuma laid on the grass a few paces from its master in silence, accepting the whether God intended. The raindrops dripped in a violent rhythm which had always been a bad sign.

00:00:00

And that very day, a life was taken away with grieve.
