Rhaion's Within Farewell's Wish

I heard raindrops within my dreams, along with the sound of the television.. "That's strange... Grandma doesn't seem to wake me up like usual" I said within my mind. I just kept my eyes closed and continued to laze down due to my slacking state. And after a few minutes, I realized that no one attempted to wake me up.
I opened my eyes and saw the television on. Reporters were featured while announcing locations with suspended classes.

"Grandma, are our classes suspended today?" I asked as I sat up on my bed.

"Our place is not directly mentioned but I think your classes will be suspended today." She replied. 

I messaged some of my classmates via phone and asked them if classes are really suspended. Most didn't replied back, and those who did are not sure about their replies.

"It's getting really late.. I guess there are really no classes." I said to myself and laid back on bed.


Then suddenly my phone rang,
and then I answered it ..


"Hey Rhaion! Are you going to school today?" a lady's voice asked.

"Nah, Grandma told me that there are no classes today." I replied as I yawned.

"I don't think so. Today is our competition for Campus Journalism." 

"Oh yeah. Well I wish you luck with that once again then. I know you'll win a very good place this year."

"But I want to meet up with you today at school. I know we have classes today."

"Won't do. My Grandma won't believe so. With this rain?"

"Well the school principal told us that classes will only be suspended in our school if our place is in risk of signal #3 due to typhoon and above, right?"

"Yeah, right. And our school is the only one with classes in the whole town."

"Well if we really have class today, make sure to text me during classes, okay?"

"And the Vice Governor of the Student Council taught me to do wrong."

"That can't be helped. I miss you, you know?"

"Yeah, can't help that. Do let me try if I could." I laughed.

"What are you doing right now?" she asked.

"I'm sleeping. Now.. good night." I answered while my eyes are closed.

"Fine, fine. I'll call you later." she hanged up.



 And after a few minutes, I heard multiple message alert tones from my phones. I grabbed it and looked at it with an eye and I saw group messages saying that classes are really suspended today.

"Thank you. Now I may sleep with more peace." I told myself.


I'm actually excited to go to school since I swore to myself that I'll be more serious with my studies, I even gave up 3/4 of my internet life. I guess The Creator of  Heaven & Earth has given this chance to me to rest. Well who knows?


And once again, my phone rungs.


I answered the phone once again..

"Hey Rhaion! Were you asleep?" the same lady asked.

"Yeah, you know me, Cinderella. I'm really a lazy-ass."

"It's so annoying. The competition is canceled."

"Why? Because no competitors will arrive?" I chuckled lightly.

"Exactly!" I can feel her pouting from the other line.

"You guys should have gotten there. Who knows? Some may have arrived there already because of diligence." I said kidding-ly.

"Haha, yeah. And win easily. Who are you kidding anyway?" 

"Well I gotta go back to sleep again Zhie."
"You sleepy head! Oh sure, I'll call you later."


I just closed my eyes and reminisce stuff..


For everything is already broken..
Since she's already gone..
I have no reasons to maintain dedicated in the game..
She'll be back no more.. 

All the riches..
The acknowledgement I may get..
They're all nothing..
If it is me who you don't understand..

I understand the anger..
I get all the means..
But to say beyond of what I've done..
It hurts me, I ain't steel..

I know we're now fine.. 
To bring up, not desired..
But what do I fear..
Changes in our cheers..





"Farewell .." 


. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .


I stood up from bed and rubbed my eyes.

"Oh, look at the time... Not so unusual though.." I looked on my phone. It was around 11 in the afternoon that time.

I walked outside of the room. I'm searching for brunch. I was wondering and I found out that today's meal is something I don't really like.. saucy kind of viands. It's not like that I don't eat such, I eat almost any kind of food anyway. It's just that I easily lose my appetite in this kind of food.

I grabbed a bowl of rice and topped it with the said viand and walked straight in my room. I turned my PC on, put the bowl in front of the desktop and sat on my seat.

I checked on my accounts and stuff while eating my meal. After checking on cyber stuff, I saw my phone.
I thought of sending a group message.

"I'll stick more serious on my words this time.. 

Good Afternoon People!
We don't have classes today @A@

Take care to the each of you.

-GM"



In some instance..


"Same here Babes" I received a personal message from dear Eve.


"We sure are lucky =w= I even got a chance to go online freely." I replied


"Can you send me something about Yakisoba Sauce. As well as Tonkatsu." She asked.


I was kinda surprised with the favor. I did insist anyways.


"Sure thing. Just wait"


I typed both recipes on phone. As I got done, I sent it right away to her.


"Ughh.. Typing sure is tiring.." I messaged along.


"Thank you so much Babes. Oh my! Sorry Babes. And Thank you once again, you're so kind."


"It was nothing. It's not that long after all. BTW, what is that for?"


"We're gonna cook this for midterm grades."


"Cool, Japanese-cuisine on top of that. Good luck, Babes."


"Thanks Babes, I hope nothing gets wrong."


After my reply, the text conversation stopped. And it did resumed after a few minutes.
What happened is just a few greetings of "How are you" .. Just like your usual conversation.
And once again, after my reply, I received none again.


I browsed the internet once again.. Did a few download requests from Zhie.
In any moment, she started to call me once again. We talked about random stuff 'til dawn.


The day is kinda plain dark.. The coldness is shivering that I didn't even took a bath.



But I'm thankful that Zhie saved me.. 


I know as well that she is lonely herself.. 


But I know that no one could just satisfy her loneliness..




... Only me.




We talked about random stuff, such as book characters and plots, editorial writing, news information, as well as K-Pop.


Yes, after hours. Night fell..

Our connection has been scissored. That's all for today..


And another message popped out ..


"Rhaion! I thought about another story! It's about Dark Angel. I'm serious this time."


"That's great Rina! Keep it up. Make sure to send it to me once you've done it" I replied.


"I will, no worries. I'm just thinking of a nice prologue. It's the only thing that hinders me. lol" She messaged back.


"Aren't you an expert on those?"


"It's just that I want it on English."


"Cool, well I wish you luck on that then. I can help you with translations if you want."


"Oh, I've thought of a prologue. I want a part of a song lyrics on it."


"Well that's up to you."



The conversation went on with explanations regarding the story plans..
A few questions were asked..
And the conversation stopped when I replied back.



I ended the day with reading a psychological-genre manga..






And that's how my day ended...


Signed..
 Rhaion
