Setting
March 14, 2005
Murry Bergtraum High School in Manhattan, New York.
Today is March 14, one of the most important dates in my life! I came to this planet eighteen years ago. Throughout these years, I had many experiences in life. I went through many situations and faced lots of difficulties and happiness. And today, I am eighteen years old, which is the age that every teenager wants to be. They said being eighteen is the best age in life, because we start to have more freedom. Well, I do agree with them. However, being eighteen also means more stress for me. [College!] Anyway, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Yoki. I am the birthday girl of today.
I’m so proud to be born on March 14, because it is also w-inds. birthday! w-inds. are my super idols. I love them since the end of the year 2002. Wow! It’s been a long time since I know them. Yet, they do not know me! Boohoo~
Anyway, my eighteenth birthday started like usual – took the train to school with mom. Pretty boring~
BUT… my day started to rock at 10:07, in my third period pre-cal class! Everyone in the room was doing and discussing the Do Now problems (like always). Then a beautiful lady came in and talked to Mr. Valcourt. After they talked…
Mr. Valcourt: Amy, come up please. [Amy is my English name.]
Yoki: Ok… (oh god, am I in trouble or something?) <walked to the front of the room> …Yes?
Lady: Can we talk for a few minutes? Just outside the room.
Yoki: Sure.
Lady: Ok, come on. <to Mr. Valcourt> We’ll be back.
Mr. Valcourt: Ok!
Once I reached outside, I was really going to scream. But I controlled myself… by being speechless…
Yoki: … <silent>
Lady: let me introduce… my name is Yuriko, and I believed that you should know them. <pointing at the three guys, who made me speechless>
Yoki: <keeps nodding>
Yuriko: Good! Well, I am a reporter whose duty is to report down w-inds. four years old birthday events. We thought of a new idea to celebrate w-inds. birthday in a special way this year, and that is to spend the day with fans that had the same birthday as them. There was a number of w-inds. fans around the world who had the same birthday, but because w-inds. said they want to visit New York City, so we chose you as our lucky birthday girl! <she also explained how they found me>
Yoki: I see! <very happy and excited> (Wow! My dream came true!)
Yuriko: Ok, let’s start with the introduction.
Yoki: Oh… uh… (Shoot, what can I say?) Wa… watashi… wa… Yoki desu! <forced a smile> (Nice… I ruined it!)
Ryohei: <smiled> Ryohei desu!
Keita: Keita! <raised his right hand>
Ryuichi: Watashi-
Ryohei + Keita: Ryuichi-kun!
Ryuichi: <glared at them> Garrr~ "kun?!"
Yoki: <giggled> Oh… <to Yuriko> Yuriko, how can we communicate? I don’t know Japanese!
Yuriko: <smiled kindly> Don’t worry! Well, you should go back to class now. We will come back to meet you later.
Yoki: Ok! <nodded>
w-inds.: Nice to meet you! We’ll see you later!
Yoki: … <stared at w-inds.> …o…ok! Bye-Bye! <walked back to the classroom> (Wow… their English is good.)
As I was walking back to my seat, Keita called me in the front of the room…
Keita: Yoki…
Yoki: <turned around> Yes? <walked to him>
Keita: <handed her a piece of paper and whispered> This is our number. Call us when you get out of school.
Yoki: Ok!
Keita: <smiled, to Mr. Valcourt> Sorry for the interruption. Bye!
Mr. Valcourt: It’s ok. Bye!
Keita: <smiled at Yoki, then left>
Mr. Valcourt: Wow, Amy. Is that your boyfriend?! <teasing her>
Student A: Mister, stop being so noisy.
Student B: Why you wanna know?!
Class: Yeaaaaa~
Yoki: <ignored Mr. Valcourt’s teasing> … <walked to him and then pinched his face>
Mr. Valcourt: Ow~ Hey, hey!
Student A: Ha Ha~ Good job, Amy.
Yoki: <to Mr. Valcourt> Does it hurt?
Mr. Valcourt: What? Of course it hurts!
Yoki: <suddenly lighten up> Yaaaaaaaaah~ I’m not dreaming! It’s true! It’s true! They came! It’s real!! AHH!! <jumping up and down>
Mr. Valcourt: …Are you ok?
Yoki: I’m not dreaming, Mr. Valcourt! My idols came to new York City to meet me!
Mr. Valcourt: Good for you. But why did you pinch ME to see if YOU’RE dreaming?
Yoki: well, if it’s a real dream, I don’t want to wake up so quickly. Hehe~
Mr. Valcourt: ……
Class: <laughed>
After awhile, the lesson went on.
During the whole day afterward, my mood was as excited as if I’ve won the first prize on the lottery! The day went by so slowly today. Maybe because I was a little over-excited. But finally, the bell rang to end my last period of class. once I got outside of the school, I called w-inds.
I first met up with Miki and Lisa. Too bad Irene has class today. They are my close friends! Anyway, after that, we went to meet w-inds. [Yuriko didn’t come.] None of them minds to eat lunch together. So we went to a Japanese restaurant to eat sushi. So yummy!
After eating, Miki and Lisa need to go home, and I need to go to volunteer. So I brought w-inds. to Red Apple Child Development Center. On the way, I went to a store to buy the lottery. Today is the first day that I am legal to buy the lottery. So I bought it as a memory. At first, the lady didn’t believe that I am eighteen years old. So I showed her my school ID. Ryohei, Keita, and Ryuichi each bought one for fun, too!
When we got to Red Apple, I introduced w-inds. to my teacher. Then we had a lot of fun with those kids (four to five years old)…
Ryuichi: Yoki, do you like kids?
Yoki: Hm… I like to play with them. But sometimes, they could be really annoying.
Ryohei: Then why you volunteer here?
Yoki: …I don’t know.
w-inds.: Oh…!
Yoki: Hm… what you think of them?
w-inds.: They’re cute!
Then, a little girl named Emily came to Ryohei and asks…
Emily: <pulling his shirt> Hey…
Ryohei: <bent down> Yes?
Emily: How come your hair’s color is different from mine?
Ryohei: Hm… because I dye it.
Emily: What’s that??
Ryohei: Uh... to dye means…
Emily: …to be killed?
Ryohei: …HAHA! No… that’s "die." I meant to "dye."
Emily: Yea… to die. Otherwise, what is it?
Ryohei: … <laughing> Well, to "dye" means… uh… <looking at the others for help>
Emily: Never mind. I like my hair’s color. Me go play now. <left>
w-inds. and Yoki: … <looked at each others, then suddenly cracked> HAHAHA!
Ryuichi: It’s ok, Ryohei. Your hair looks good to me!
Ryohei: Really?!
Ryuichi: Yea~ Haha!
Then a little boy came to Ryuichi and poked his tummy…
Ryuichi: HAHA… that tickles! <looked down at the boy>
Yoki: Kenny!!
Kenny: Hehe!
Ryuichi: What are you doing? <smiled>
Kenny: Poke, poke…
Ryuichi: I know you’re poking me. But, I mean, why are you poking me?
Kenny: Your tummy is so cute.
Ryuichi: … <paused> …o…k?! <evil looks and smiles> Hehehe… YOUR tummy looks so cute too… <trying to tickle Kenny>
Kenny: Haha… <ran away>
Ryuichi: <to the others> Be right back. <then chased after Kenny>
Meanwhile…
Michelle: <pulling Yoki> I finished my drawing. Come and see!
Yoki: Ok!
At the same time, two little boys were arguing on the other side of the room…
Yoki: Oh god…
Keita: Let me and Ryohei take care of that.
Yoki: Thanks! <followed Michelle to her seat>
Keita and Ryohei went over to the boys…
Keita: Hi… what is going on?
Boy 1: He took my book!
Boy 2: No. I took it first!
Boy 1: Give me! <grabbing the book>
Keita + Ryohei: <each grabbed onto one of the boys> Come on, let’s share!
Boys: It’s MINE!
Keita + Ryohei: …
Keita: <grabbed a book from the shelf> Here… <handed it to Boy 1> …this one is more interesting. Try reading it.
Boy 1: …ok. <took the book>
Keita: Good!
Boy 2: I want a better book, too!
Ryohei: You got yours though. Don’t you love it?
Boy 2: But… I want another one.
Keita: <just grabbed another book> Here…
Boy 2: Thank you! <took the book and left>
Ryuichi: I want another one, too!
Keita: Grabbed another book> Here… <saw it was Ryuichi> Yo! <slapped Ryuichi with the book that he was about to hand to him>
Ryuichi: Hehe!
Throughout the whole afternoon, w-inds. were fooling around and joined the fun with Yoki and the little kids. Finally, it’s time to leave…
Yoki: So… where are you guys going now?
w-inds.: Hmm… I don’t know. You?
Yoki: I think I need to go.
w-inds.: Oh! Let’s take you home.
Yoki: Nah, it’s ok. I live pretty far from here. (Though, I really want to.)
w-inds.: It’s ok.
Keita + Ryuichi: Ryohei does the job!
Ryohei: What??
Ryuichi: I wanna eat!
Keita: I wanna walk around Chinatown a little more.
Keita + Ryuichi: Also because you’re the gentleman!
Ryohei: …ok. I don’t mind.
Yoki: …you sure?
Ryohei: Sure!
Yoki: Thanks! (Yes! Yes! Yes!) <very excited>
Keita + Ryuichi: We’re gonna go now. Happy birthday, Yoki!
Yoki: Thank you! Bye-Bye!
Keita: <to Ryohei> Call us when you’re back.
Ryohei: Ok. Bye!
Keita + Ryuichi: Bye! <left>
Ryohei: <to Yoki> Let’s go.
Yoki: <nodded with a shy smile>
Just like that, Ryohei, my dream boy, took me home. We talked a lot about each other on the way home and in the train. Ryohei was a pretty shy boy in the beginning. But once you know him better, he’s actually pretty easy to communicate with.
Then finally, we have reached to my front yard…
Yoki: This is my house.
Ryohei: It’s nice!
Yoki: Thanks. Wanna come in?
Ryohei: Nah, I need to go back to meet Keita and Ryuichi.
Yoki: Oh… hm… (Come on, say it, Yoki.)
Ryohei: So… anything else?
Yoki: Yea… hm… happy birthday to w-inds.!
Ryohei: Thanks! Happy birthday to you, Yoki!
Yoki: Thank you! This is a great eighteenth birthday! (Because of you guys!)
Ryohei: That’s nice to hear.
Yoki: Ryohei… can we hang out again? Wednesday is Lisa’s birthday.
Ryohei: Sure!
Yoki: <released> Ok!
Ryohei: So, I’ll go now. Keep in touch!
Yoki: <nodded>
Ryohei: I’m very happy to meet you, Yoki! <kissed her cheek> Bye! <started leaving>
Yoki: …!! <froze> B… b… bye~ <staring at Ryohei’s back>
Mom’s voice: Amy… Amy!! Hey, wake up!
Ryohei’s image started to fade away. Soon, it disappeared! I slowly opened my eyes and found myself in the train…
Mom: Dreaming again?! It’s your stop!
Yoki: Crap! Bye, mom! <jumped out of the door just in time>
Once I got out, I refreshed my memory. I was taking the train to school with mom as usual. I was taking a nap in the train, and I had a dream with w-inds. So, it was just a dream… a very real and sweet dream!! As the train started to leave the station, mom was waving good-bye at me, and I saw her lips saying "happy birthday" to me! It felt just as good as the moment when Ryohei kissed my cheek in that dream!
Well, my day started with sweets and happiness. Throughout the day, w-inds. didn’t appear like they did in my dream. However, I’ve received all the treasures and greetings from my precious friends. I love my eighteenth birthday so much! I will always remember it! Thank you ALL for everything! Thank you, w-inds.…for the dream!
