• When I heard my big brother say those words...I couldn't help but to realize and know that love does exsit.
    That was the last time I saw my big brother.I was only five when he had ran away with the girl he fell in love with.Her parents had came many times to our house and threatened to shut down our shops.So my parents threatened my brother not to see that girl again.
    "But I love her! Why can't any of you understand that!"

    "You're only sixteen.What could you possibly know about love?!?"

    "Your mind is still realizing the world isn't a magical fairytale!"

    "You must be right then! Because you two surly don't seem to love each other.All you do is argue and stomp away.Right in front of Rin!"

    "What we do isn't any of your buisness! Look how disrespectful you are!"

    They went on for hours it seemed.Yelling and shouting out hurtful things.Like before when my parents would fight and Big Brother was holding me he would say, "Cover your ears and close your eyes.Imagine yourself in another place far,far,far away from hear.A magical place where only you..."

    "Will Big Brother be with Rin?"

    "Yes,now imagine we are far away and nothing can harm us.Now chant this everytime you feel scared or lonely or unsure 'With my heart I unlock my strength-RIN' and you will feel better.Okay?

    "Okay Big Brother."

    So I had covered my ears and chanted my own secret chant.When I was done Big Brother had stopped yelling and was by the door holding his head to his face.When he saw me,he did the same thing he did everytime to keep me from worrying...he smile. That's when I asked him what was love. And I know now...that is what he realized what he had to do.
    .:.:Briiiiiiiiiing:.:.

    "Rin! Come one the sale is going to be over with if we don;t leave now!!"

    "I'm going Noriko-chan!! I have to get my books!"

    "Bah! Okay."

    *smile* "Thanks.Okay let's go!"

    Hi.My name is Rinomi Tsuuski.I'm seventeen years of age and in the eleventh grade. Only my best friend Noriko Sawada callls me Rin.Because I have a bad rep at school.And it all started when my big brother left me.

    "Took you long enough Rin-chan.I was sure we were going to miss the Kawaii Factory sale. You know I have to get the new Panda series."*smiles*

    "Yea,yea.I know Noriko-san."

    "Ahhhhh!! Call me Nori-chan.No-Ri Chan!!!" *grabs Rin's arm*

    "Ha ha ha.But you know I don't go by first names.Even with you.How long did it take me to call you just by Noriko-san.?"

    *pouts*"Too long and I've known you since third year of middle school.It's not fair."

    "Life's not fair.Lets go."*runs*

    "Wahhh! Wait for me Rin-chan!!"

    "You're too slow!"

    "Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!"

    "HA ha ha ha ha ha!!!"

    Yeah it's true.I've known Noriko-san since childhood.She even helped me when my brother left.He didn't even say goodbye to me.Just up and left me with all the responsiblities of of family buisnesses.So I started feeling lonley.Thought I was falling in love but just got my heart broken over and over again.The guys pitied me because they all knew my brother.That's when I became more cold hearted.I transferred many times.Then Noriko-can convinced me to go to her high school.It's not as bad as the others but still I had my guard up. But still, I find myself wondering about my big brother.Years of no communication what so ever really led me to believe he was dead. Still my big bother last words ring in my ears,

    "So you can say that love is like... a Magical Butterfly."

    Is that really true Big Brother?
