Violin + Piano

Chapter 6: Who am I to you?
~*~

Stella stared at the white grand piano that stood sturdily in solitude in her house store room.

“Breath taking isn’t it?” She heard her father’s voice from behind her. Stella nodded. Her eyes followed every single detail of the grand piano.

“This is actually hers… I helped her bought it because she loved this piano… But… now? She’s gone…” Athrun sighed.

“Is this mother’s?” Stella asked as she looked at Athrun.

“No… your mother was a flautist…” Athrun shook her head.

“Anyway, please take good care of it.” Athrun sighed as he left the store room.

“Okay! Ganbatte!” Stella told herself.

[For 2 weeks, Stella has been warded for food poisoning after she mistook the bottle of nail polish remover as her bottle of water. When she was finally discharged, she had a mad rush of a lot of things like her homework and admin work for the school festival. It was said that they are going to put up a short concert so they need all the musicians to come forward. Harume knowing that Stella can play the piano helped her put down her name.]

She flipped through her song sheets, trying to find a song suitable for her debut. She sighed and leaned back onto her chair and sighed.

“Why can’t I find a suitable song?” Stella moaned. Suddenly, her cell phone rang. Groaning at the disturbance, she picked up her phone and looked at the caller ID. There it showed Kira’s number. Immediately, she picked up the phone

“Hello!” Stella greeted happily

“Yo, hey, you want to come over to the theme park?” Kira asked.

“Ok! When?” Stella replied eagerly

“Today, let’s say like… 12pm?” Kira chuckled at Stella’s enthusiasm.

“Ok~ See you then!” Stella smiled and they both got of the phone.

[12PM]

At 12pm sharp, Stella met Kira at the meeting place – the neighbour hood playground – Stella smiled when she saw Kira. She ran up and pat Kira’s back

“Waited long?” Stella asked.

“Yah you little brat! What took you so long?!” Kira yelled at Stella as he ruffled Stella’s blonde hair. Stella immediately brushed Kira’s hand away.

“Jeez, I’m on time okay.” Stella pouted. Suddenly, she felt something hit her head. She turned and saw Monoki Yamazaki.

“Hey, don’t anyhow flirt with other people’s boyfriend would you?” Monoki reprimanded her slightly. Tears welled up her eyes. But she ignored it.

“He… hey Monoki…” Kira stuttered.

“Stay out of this Kira!” Monoki snapped.

“Just who do you think you are? Trying to snatch other people’s boyfriend?” Monoki growled as she pushed Stella. Stella lost her balance and was about to fall when a hand steadied her. She turned and saw a sandy blonde hair lad with baby blue pupils.

“Kyuu! You too! Stay out of this!” Monoki snapped annoyed by the sudden interruption.

“I’m sorry, I’m afraid I can’t do so, as my little princess is crying.” Kyuu smirked as he picked up Stella and left. Kira stood there, his mind was flooded with questions. But the question that probed so hard in his mind that he almost had a headache was

“Who is Kyuu to Stella?” Kira sighed and shook his head. Now he had an unhappy little lady at his side that needs to be pampered. He will ponder about that question later. Now, he only can entrust Kyuu to take care of Stella. But, for some unknown reason, Kira’s heart wrenched at the thought that he could not be there to comfort Stella when she was in tears. Kira tried to shake away the feeling but all went to vain.

[WITH KYUU]

Stella looked across the table and saw a handsome lad with beautiful features. Soft silky hair, beautiful baby blue pupils and those gorgeous cheekbones that would make every girl fall for. Tears welled up in her eyes.

“Are you okay?” Kyuu asked when he noticed Stella’s gaze.

“Ah… yeah…” Stella forced a smile.

“Stella, you do know that you can trust me with anything don’t you?” Kyuu said as he pat her hand. Stella looked up at Kyuu and touched her chest.

“I don’t know why… It just hurts…” Stella whispered as tears fell down her cheeks. Kyuu took Stella by her shoulder and brought her into his arms and patted her head.

“Is okay… Cry it out… you will feel much better…” Kyuu whispered as he heard Stella’s sobs.

“Is okay… Everything will be fine…” Kyuu comforted her.

“No! It will not!” Stella yelled as she pushed herself away from Kyuu’s arms.

“ITS HAPPENING!!” Stella yelled as she ran out of the door.

“STELLA!!” Kyuu yelled out but did not give chase. Instead he fell to the ground and ran a hand through his hair and tears slipped out.

“No…not now… it can’t be happening now…” Kyuu cried.
