Chapter 5(continued):
"Excuse me, you dropped your wallet." A voice from behind her broke the silence. Judy turned around and looked at the person who picked her wallet up. "She looks familiar.." She thought to herself. She tried to refresh her memories.
"You are Judy, right? Do you remember me? I'm Jas. We were in the same primary school. I imigrated to Japan a few years ago." Jas said with excitement.
"Jas! I thought i would never find a friend here. At least i'm not alone now." Judy said happily as she hugged Jas.
"Here's your wallet. So why are you here?" Jas asked.
Judy answered, "I'm here to study. I got into the university nearby. And well, also for another reason.. "
"I see. Is it the Keio University?" Jas asked.
"How do you know?!" Judy asked.
"I got into that university too. Wow, i'm glad to have someone i know there too. You're going to register later, right? Let's go together." Jas said.
"Alright!" Judy nodded with a wide smile on her face.
On the way towards the school, they chatted, giggled and shared the things they have gone through. After a few minutes, they reached the school. They saw many students checking out the noticeboard for their classes and the venue for them to register in. Judy and Jas tried to squeeze into the crowd of students. Judy managed to squeeze in and noticed her name. As she looked further down, she noticed Jas' name too. "Ah! We got into the same class. I didn't know you took the same course as me." Jas said happily. "At least i don't have to be lonely."
"Yeah, i'm glad that we are in the same class. Let's hurry and register before more people comes." Judy said and pulled Jas out from the crowd towards their registration point.
As they reached the registration point, Judy saw someone familiar being crowded by a group of people..

Chapter 5:
"NO NO NO!!!" Judy screamed and woke up from a terrible nightmare. She wiped away the sweat from her face. "Must be my nightmares again." Judy thought to herself. She checked the timing from her phone, but it was still very early to register and report to school. She took out her laptop and start typing in her blog again.
I had the nightmares.. again. I thought i would be free from the nightmares once i changed the enviroment i stayed in. This time, i dreamt of people bullying me. The girls in my class from my secondary school in Singapore tore my clothes in the public.. I can't believe that until now, i could still remember the incident. How i wish i could just brainwash myself out of my Singapore life.. In the nightmare, i could also see Brother and Dad watching me, when i started for help, Dad started pulling Brother away and i was left with the girls bullying and tearing my clothes. I remembered that time, Dad forced Brother to leave Mum.. I was just two at that time, i was helpless.. I just kept crying.. I remembered the face Brother showed when he was being forced to leave Mum and me. No matter how unwilling he was to leave us, Dad just pulled him away.. When Dad drove the car away, i ran after the car, but i did not have enough stamina to catch up and ended up stopping.. I dropped to the floor.. Mum came running to me and hugged me straight.. Although i was just two at that time, i could still remember it very clearly.. I hate Dad for leaving us.. ~~I hate Dad~~.. I hate Dad for making Mum so depressed and tired.. I hate Dad for causing Mum's death.. I hate Dad from bringing Brother away from us.. I hate myself for being so weak and lousy.. I hate myself for not being to help Mum.. I miss Mum.. I miss Brother...
Judy stopped typing and ended up crying loudly. Her memories started to come back again. The times when she was being bullied by her classmates, being beaten up by a group of girls. Her mum died when she was just five. Her mum got too over depressed and ended up committing suicide. After that, she stayed at her grandma's house until she was secondary three. She did not want to burden her grandma anymore, so she worked and saved enough money to rent a room from her secondary school buddy, Sammy. Sammy's parents were kind enough to rent the room at a price that she could afford to pay.
During the rest of her secondary years, everyday, she worked, she ate just bread or something cheap for her meals. She used the money mostly for school, buying textbooks herself, paying for school fees. Although Sammy's parents offered to help her with the fees, she rejected their help as she do not want to burden them too. She studied in a special stream, so she was able to choose another language to study and she chose to learn Japan. She heard from her grandma once that they were originally from Japan, but moved to Singapore because her grandma wanted to live here. so at that time, she thought, "maybe if i study in Japan, i would not be depised by people and could even start a new life here." So she worked very hard everyday just to earn money, saved money, study very hard even though people called her a "study freak" and bullied her. Even though, she had nightmares and do not wish to attend school, she forced herself to go to school and forced herself to ignore and hide the bad memories in her heart, just because of this wish of hers.
And now, finally, she managed to get into a school in Japan. But she still had all these nightmares and bad memories. She tried hard to stop crying, but tears just keep falling down like a waterfall. She tried telling herself, "It's gonna be okay. You will be alright here. You will start a new life here." But tears never seemed to stop.
Suddenly, she received a message from MSN. The sound of MSN broke her cries. She wiped her tears away and saw Sammy sending her a message.
Sammy008: Hey, my dear girl! How are you in Japan? IMY! (:
Judy022: I'm still fine. I just left you for like one day only.
Sammy008: Can't help it. Still having those nightmares?
Judy022: Erm.. not really.. =l
Sammy008: Are you sure? -.o? Don't really trust you, but if you want to tell me anything, i'm always free. (:
Judy022: Yep, i know. Thanks anyway. I'm going to report to school today, quite nervous though. Hopefully, things wouldn't repeat here. I'm worried. S=
Sammy008: Don't worry, you'll be fine there. I know you will. (:
Judy022: Thanks alot for the encouragement..
Sammy008: Alright! I'll talk to you again soon. See ya! (:
Judy022: See ya too. Gonna prepare to register and report to school. Talk to you soon..
(Sammy008 had signed off.)
Judy went to the toliet and washed her face. She looked to the mirror. "You will be alright, Judy. You will." She smiled and wiped her face with a face towel. She looked at the timing from her watch. She still have three hours before she could register and report to school. She packed her laptop into her bag. She decided to go for a walk in the park.
As Judy walked towards the park, she looked up the sky. The sun have not rised fully. "Woo Ahh!! It's so pretty." She thought to herself. She stopped walking and closed her eyes. She could feel the breeze under her feet. She felt relaxed and calm.
"Excuse me, you dropped your wallet." A voice from behind her broke the silence. Judy turned around....
To be continued.. (: *Have a nice guessing at what will happen next. (: )

Chapter 4:
Judy opened the door to her house. The water from her wet clothes were still dripping. She threw her bag down and put the bag of waffles on the table, hang the suit that Kazuma lent her on the pole for drying clothes, then took some dry clothes and went to the toliet for a bath. "Ahh... CHOO!" Judy sneezed again as she turned on the heater. As she was bathing, she thought back about what had happen just now. "Am i dreaming?" She thought to herself. Then she stopped all the thoughts and continued bathing.
Kazuma walked back home slowly, still thinking about the incident that had happen. Just then, Ryou and Guzara managed to catch up with him. "Hey, where have you been? We've been looking around for you. We heard the crowds near the pond saying that you ran after a girl." Ryou said. (While Kazuma was fishing at the pond, Ryou and Guzara went off to buy some stuffs, that's why they were not in the previous chapters. (: )
"Erm.. yeah.. So, what did the two of you buy? Did you buy my favourite drink?" Kazuma changed the subject. Guzara took out Kazuma's favourite drink, Milk Tea, out from the plastic bag. Both Ryou and Guzara starred at Kazuma curiously, but Kazuma ignored them and drank his Milk Tea. Just then, Guzara noticed something missing from Kazuma and asked, "Where's your suit? Did you forget to take it when you leave the pond?"
"Ah.. I think i left it at the pond. By this time, the fans would have taken it." Kazuma made up the story. He did not want Ryou and Guzara to know what had happen just yet. "Hopefully, i get to see her again." Kazuma thought to himself, smiling to himself.
Judy came out from the bath. She took out the letter saying about her approval to the University in Japan. She kept thinking about the things that might happen and she felt excited about it. She put the letter down. She remembered the suit that Kazuma had lent her. "Ahh! How do i return to him if i don't know where i can find him?" Judy shouted to herself. She took out the suit from the pole and hand-washed it. She placed the suit into the dryer. "What should i do?" She asked herself. She went to where her laptop was and went on her MSN. She saw Sammy online, but her status was on busy. So she decided to wrote on her blog.
Today was the first day i was alone in Japan. I thought i would adapt to Japan easily, but no. The food here was much more expensive than what i thought. Luckily, i could afford to buy a bread for my lunch today, but something unexpected happen.. I wouldn't want to go in details to it. My bread dropped into the pond and i haven't even start eating it. Am i unlucky or what?
Then, she stopped typing. She suddenly remember the waffles that Kazuma had given her. She turned to where the waffles was and took the waffles out from the plastic bag. Her stomach growled hungrily. "Itadakimasu. (In Japan, you always said it before starting to eat.)" Judy said as she started eating. She continued typing again.
But one guy, he offered me with waffles. Although i'm just some stranger to him, he treated me with waffles and lent me his suit. I'm just a nobody, but he was in a famous band called the PowerGuys. Was i just dreaming or was all this for real? I do not know where i could find him and return his suit. I hope to see him soon again, so that i can return his suit, but i doubt there will be any other chance for seeing him again, unless i attend their concert..
As Judy finished her last sentence, she finished eating her waffles too. She went to the dryer and took out the suit. "Arigatou.(Thank you in Japan)" She said as she hang the suit in her closet, grinning to herself. She lie down on her bed, still starring at the suit in her closet. "I wonder what tomorrow will be like." She thought as she fell asleep..
"Hey Kazuma, what's on your mind?" Ryou shook Kazuma out of his thoughts.
"Ahh.. Nothing.." Kazuma said as he was being brought back to reality.
"Is there something funny? Why are you smiling to yourself?" Guzara asked curiously.
"There really isn't anything. I'm going to bed now." Kazuma said and walked back to his room.
He lie on his bed, and smiling. "See you soon, Judy." He whispered as he slowly fell asleep..
To be continued.. (:

Chapter 3:
Judy dragged her feet as she walk home. "Ah... CHOO!" Judy shivered. She combed her wet hair with her hands. She held the suit tightly to her. Her stomach growled as she walked past a bread shop. But she resisted the temptation and walked past the bread shop. Just then, someone tapped on her shoulder. She turned around and saw Kazuma.
"Here, this is for you." Kazuma said as he passed her the plastic bag with two waffles in it. Judy looked at the bag of waffles, then looked at Kazuma in surprise. She did not expect Kazuma to come after her, moreover bought food for her. "Erm.. Thank you.." Judy said with a weak smile, still shivering in cold.
"Oh yah, i forgot to introduce myself. How rude of me. My name is Kazuma Mazuka. You can just call me Kazuma." Kazuma introduced himself politely to Judy,
"My name is Judy. I've heard a lot about you. You are from the PowerGuys?" Judy asked. Kazuma nodded. He noticed that Judy was still shivering in cold. "I think you should go home now, before you catch a cold. Do you need me to bring you home?" Kazuma asked in concern.
"I don't think so. I can walk home from here. My house is just straight ahead." She said weakly and pointed to her house. "I shall take a move first. Bye." Judy waved goodbye to Kazuma and continued to walk home. Kazuma looked at her as she slowly walk back home.

Chapter 2:
Judy struggled to shout for help, but she could not sound it out, instead she found herself swallowing down the pond water instead. "H..mm...p! H...!"
"One by one please. Please stop pushing." Kazuma tried to calm the people down. But his fans still continue to push and scream. Then Kazuma heard the sound of splashing in the pond. He turned to his fishing rod, thinking that he had caught a fish. But to his shock, he saw someone in the pond. As he looked closely, he noticed that it was that girl who sat on the bench, starring at him for no reason. He noticed her struggling in the water, trying to shout for help. Without hesistating any longer, he took out his suit, and jumped into the pond. He swam as fast as he could towards the girl. He managed to reach the girl on time. He brought her out of the pond. The fans shouted in excitement at the sight of Kazuma saving someone. "Please people, give some space to her to breathe." Kazuma shouted for the crowd to leave some space, so that the girl could breathe. The girl was unconscious. So he decided to do CPR on her. Despite listening to what the crowd were saying, he focused on bring the girl back to consciousness.
Judy coughed and coughed and water came out from her mouth. She tried opening her eyes, then she saw a guy's face so close to her. She screamed, shocking the guy and the crowd. She pushed the guy away immediately.
"Hey, how could you be so rude to Kazuma-san?" Judy heard the crowd shouting to her for pushing the guy away. Then, one word caught her attention.
"Who?" Judy confirmed what she just heard.
"Kazuma-chan just saved you from drowning and yet you pushed him away. Are you alright, Kazuma-kun?" One of them answered her and the crowd start to turn their attention back to Kazuma.
"Eh??" Judy, still not believing what she just heard, turned to the guy and confirmed what she heard. It was really Kazuma. Her eyes kept looking at him in disbelief. She pinched herself to check whether she was dreaming or what. "Ouch!" She shouted in pain.
"Are you alright?" Kazuma asked Judy. He took his suit and covered up Judy as he saw her shivering. He ignored what the crowd says.
"... Yeah.. I think so.." Judy answered while looking at him, still in disbelief. She pushed away the suit that Kazuma was trying to put on her. They kept pushing the suit to each other, in the end, Judy gave up and placed the suit on herself. She turned away from his eyes and walked to the bench, away from Kazuma and the crowd. She looked around the bench for her bread, but could not find it anywhere. She checked inside her bag, but still could not find it. She turned to the pond and saw her bread floating. Her heart ached at the sight of her bread floating away from her in the pond. Kazuma, still ignoring the crowd, looked at the direction of where Judy was looking and saw a bread floating in the pond too. Kazuma went forward to Judy and asked her what happened. But Judy took her bag and walked away from Kazuma and the crowd, mumbling to herself with her head looking down. "My bread.. My bread.." Kazuma tried to hear what she was mumbling about. Then he looked in the pond again, then understood that her bread that she was trying to eat was in the pond. When he turned to her again, she was some distance away from him already. Kazuma went to packed his belongings and ran after her, leaving the crowd starring at him in disbelief and gossipping..
