My Sun
â⌠another chance to finally fulfilled my role⌠so everything would began as the world deemed it rightâŚâ
Those pair of ruby inside your eyes that shone brightly that even the sunshine pale in comparison. The eyes of a person whoâs closest to the most bright person on this world, You-chan though to herself when she saw Chika for the first time. Thereâs a sudden urge to befriend the orange-haired girl, but surprisingly, it was the other girl that reached her first. She told her name was Chika and she wanted to be friend with You-chan. You-chan was beyond happy and she accepted it. Afterwards, they played until the sun set and their parents took them home. Not long after, they were inseparable and spend most of their times together.
As time goes on, unknowingly, You-chan slowly forgot about Yuri. It was a system that was planted by the strange man when they made the cure before, so she would never be sad when her time came to leave this world. A nice function, he said. As such, You-chan happily spend her times doing so many things with Chika, until the cruel fate that awaited her came to took her off. And the day came, just when she was about to visit Chika, suddenly a load of memories filled her mind. It was a glimpse of person sheâs really familiar with but she didnât know whoâs that person was, and with that sudden insertion, she fell unconscious at the seashore. Someone found her later and took her home. Afterwards, as being told before, she was slowly being forgotten by people around her and by the last time she went to her home, she finally met with the girl inside her mind just before she fell unconscious before.
Her parents explained about the truth behind her existence as now Yuri was finally getting consciousness after her fall years before. And now, as You-chan would finally reached 17, Yuri would finally awoke and You-chan would fulfilled her role as the person who would save Yuri, the only daughter of Watanabe family. At that time, You-chan realized about what happened back in her childhood time, about her twin sister, about how she suddenly fell sick and how without anyoneâs notice, she left her mind. You-chan was shocked and as such, she ran away from her house. She lived in Tokyo, escaping her cruel fate for about two years.
In Tokyo, she tried to find a clue about avoiding her own death and at that time, she met the strange man who helped her family back then. Yes, she didnât knew about it. The strange man said that if she wanted to cure herself from the inevitable death that awaited her, she needed to find the flower that bloomed inside the sleeping forest in Uchiura. The violet-colored flower named Sunscythe. Seeing as thereâs no reason to reject the idea, she went back to Uchiura.
When she arrived at the entrance of the sleeping forest, she caught a glimpse of Chika who sat outside of a cafe they usually went together. Thinking that sheâd already forgotten about her, You-chan proceed to the forest while unknowingly, Chika followed her behind. At the time she realized thereâs someone following her, You-chan was really afraid, but when she realized it was Chika, she smiled at herself and slowed down her steps. She greeted the girl with her smile and took her together to find the Sunscythe.
You-chan was really sad that her once-best-friend didnât even recognized her because of the curse (she called the system a curse), but seeing that sheâs still able to spend their time together, she complied with that side of fate and proceed deeper. At last they found the Sunscythe. The grim-looking flower that destroyed other plants around it. Knowing about the time when the flower would fully bloomed, she asked Chika to spend the night there together.
Slowly, she felt that Chika knew about her being her once-best-friend. The way she tried to made sure about her habits, the way she tried to test her thought about the real identity of her finally made You-chan to test her own theory that Chika might be not forgetting about her. So she showed the necklace that held a photo of her when she was with Chika back in her junior high time. Chika was really shocked by that revelation. How could someone whoâs supposed to be dead was standing right in front of her? And so You-chan explained everything about the curse that people would forget her slowly, and when she reached 17 she would death to took out her sisterâs disease.
Chika was shocked. She never knew about You-chan having a twin sister. Moreover, thereâs something strange about the whole story. Why was thereâs always a strange man that helped them whenever something bad happened to the family? Just who is this strange man that appeared out of nowhere and acted as if heâs a savior to anyone? When Chika though about any possibilities, the said man suddenly appeared out of nowhere in front of the two girls, bringing Yuri along with him.
âSo, someone realized about my magic, huh? As expected of the child of the sun.â the strange man calmly revealed his interference in You-chanâs familyâs problem
âWhy are you taking Yuri with you here!? Whatâs your intention in doing this?â Chika started her questionings
âOh, her? Sheâs just a pawn I needed to get a hold of that girl beside you. That girl is my main target. The girl whoâs filled with the sun power even though she originated from the depth of the sea. That cursed child who managed to destroyed my life back in our past lives. This time, I will not fail in delivering judgment to that cursed girl!!â The strange man now looked like a believer of occultic religion
âSo thatâs why you helped me back then? You were trying to trapped me inside this forest so you could kill me here.â You-chan looked afraid but she held it on
âIf youâve already realized my intention, why bother going inside the forest, then?â
âOf course so I could help my sister. Thereâs no way I would let you treat my sister like a doll anymore. You will pay for mistreating my sister and my family!â
âYour family? Donât make me laugh! Youâre just an incarnation of a girl who lived in the past that I summoned with the cursed Sunscar flowerâs power. Hahahaâ You-chan was shocked by the revelation
âYou-chanâŚâ Chika was worried about her friend
âItâs okay, Chika. It was so obvious that I came from another realm, seeing as I was born out of a mirror. Hehehe.â finally calmed her mind
âSo you still had the energy to endure the supposed despair I brought onto your family? Interesting. Then, you also knew that if you took a sip of that Sunscythe flower, you will fully materialized here in this world and your sister here would die instead?â
âN-No way!!!?â
âAhahahahahaha. Well, even if you did know about it now, it doesnât really matter anymore since weâre now in a realm of the past.â Chika now realized why she never entered the forest before. The forest itself wasnât there from the very beginning. It was being brought there by that strange man
âYou planned this really well, huh?â Chika weirdly looked so calm
âOf course. And by the way, you are also included in my list, little girl. Just seeing your face really makes me want to puke. You pair of cursed children!â
âSo, we fight now, huh, stupid man?â Chika tried her best to provoked the strange man
âHow dare you, little girl. Youâre facing the great dark sorcerer of the Sengoku period, Harumatsu.â
âWell, I donât care about anyone who disturb my friendâs happiness. Moreover, you are ugly as heck!â
âThen, you asked for it!!â
So the man was fully provoked by Chika and he stormed off to Chikaâs direction. He threw Yuri off from his clutch and angrily swung the wand in his hand. Chika easily avoided the strike, and when Harumatsu tried to strike again, Chika threw a stone to him. She mocked him and started running away from that place. Meanwhile, You-chan, who was being forgotten by Harumatsu, took her sister and tried to wake her up. Well, she did it.
âY-You-chan⌠are you okay?â
âItâs supposed to be me whoâs asking about your condition, nee-san. What about our parents?â
âThey fell unconscious when Harumatsu took me. I think theyâre fine in our house. Now, You-chan, while your friend is holding him off, you need to took that Sunscythe and made the cure so you could escape the cruel fate that I bestowed upon you.â
âNo, nee-san. Thereâs no need for it. youâre the one whoâs supposed to live in this world, not me. So, in my favor, please take care of our family and also Chika for me. I love you all.â
With that final message, You-chan left and chased after Chika and Harumatsu, leaving her sister behind. She finally catch up with Chika and together, they fought against Harumatsu. At first, Harumatsu was having the upperhand, but after adapting to his fighting style, The duo managed to bring him down. And with a charm Chika had from Mito-nee, she sealed Harumatsu at the temple just outside the forest. Finished with the sealing process, they went back to meet Yuri inside the forest.
Arrived at the previous place, they found Yuri unconscious. She might be really exhausted after being forcefully brought here from Numazu. Or else, her disease finally started to swarmed over her body again after the sealing of Harumatsu. Ignoring any accusation, they took Yuri home and arrived there, they took care of the unconscious family. Next month, after they finally stopped Harumatsuâs ambition, with the Watanabe family finally doing their routine like what they used to do, You-chan went to Chikaâs place to say goodbye, now thinking that she finally fulfilled her role. When she reached the inn, her tears started to fall, but she held it on. She needed to, or else, she would destroyed her own conviction.
âHello, You-chan, long time no see! So, is this goodbye?â Chika surprisingly looked cheerful. Well, deep inside sheâs holding her own tears as to make sure You-chan left without worry
âHehehe. What can we do, Chika, this is whatâs supposed to happen, after all⌠Thank you for all the times weâve spent together. I really love being with you the most. I will never forget you, Chika!â
âWell, youâd better not. Because if you do, I would come flying to your world and punish youâŚ. heheheâŚâ Chika couldnât hold her tears anymore
Chika cried really hard while You-chan, at first, tried to tend her off until she herself cried herself off. Well, it was a given that theyâd be sad. But thinking about it once gain, they were not supposed to know each other right from the beginning. It was just a momentâs of luck given to them by fate, and now that theyâd already enjoyed it, they needed to part ways. Chika held You-chanâs cheeks as the latter slowly disappearing from her sight. She held them tight and just as she was about to kiss her friend, You-chan vanished into thin air, finally leaving Chika for sure this time. Chika held her own body as she remembered the feeling of You-chanâs warmth she felt earlier. So she cried her hearts out again there, alone.
A few years after You-chanâs departure, now Chika finally graduated from university, she went back to Uchiura (sheâs entering a college in Tokyo). She felt so nostalgic with her hometown that it made her cry. She remembered all the time she spent there, especially together with You-chan whoâs now no longer beside her. And just as she was thinking about You-chan, a pair of girls came her way. The one with the violet-eyes, she knew it was Yuri, whom she befriended after the incident years ago. But the other one, the one she really missed, the one she really wanted to meet again, was there, happily smiling at her.
âHow dare you didnât said anything to me that youâre going back, stupid You-chan!!!â
