"There's a rainbow

as if you were here

Presently

Someone who equates the feeling of seeing the presence of a rainbow as a feeling when he is with his lover."

(Nizi tachite - Japanese literature by Takahama kiyosi)

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

The next morning was sunny Kim Taehyung was preparing to leave for school. Today he let his hair fall a little messy like the anime that Megumi drew. A faint smile clings to Taehyung's lips, he can't wait to go to school and meet Megumi.

Wait!!!!!! Since when Taehyung was very excited to go to school. Previously Tae was always not excited, even impressed lazy if leaving school.

Without saying anything Taehyung went straight to the dinner table and ate the toast.

"You look excited today. " Who Mr. Kim as Taehyung's father who was sitting at the table with a cup of coffee.

"I think the same as always ." Taehyung replied casually.

"How's school?" asked Mr. Kim as if paying attention to his son

"Obviously. I'm going first. " After finishing eating his bread Taehyung immediately left for school.

Taehyung's father smiled as he saw his son's returned face get his smile. For almost a year he had never seen Taehung's smile like that.

"It looks like Taehyung is doing well in school. "Taehyung's mother said with a smile to her husband.

"You feel that way too? I hope the boy is always happy. I hope this time we can stay too. " Say Mr. Kim and smile at his wife.

Taehyung has arrived in his classroom. As usual, he always listened to music with earphones in his ears. He was shocked when someone suddenly removed one of his earphones.

"Give me your Japanese literature assignment." Megumi said with her hand out.

"Oh... Just a minute." Taehyung opens up his tasny and gives his taskbook to Megumi.

"Hey were you in the park last night?" tanya Taehyung wanted to start a conversation.

"Yes I'm there." The answer was short and then sat on his stool.

"Hey Megumi, do you remember me? " ask Taehyung once again.

"Eehhhhh, did you call my name? Are we friends? " Shouted Megumi so as to make Hiroaki look at her.

To Megumi's surprise, Taehyung calls her first name, not her surname.

In Japan, a person will call his or her first name if he or she really becomes a close friend. The rest of them call with their surnames.

"Then I have to call you by what." asked Taehyung with his right eyebrow raised up.

"I was surprised to hear that, my friends used to call me Saibara." Answer Megumi, and turn the seat facing Kim Taehyung.

"Woah. You're not tidying your hair this time. It's like the character I drew." said Megumi once again.

"Why do you like to draw? " Taehyung finally opened up a small conversation, he wanted to know a little how the female figure who was currently in front of him.

"Fun, are you alone?"

"Anoo, namae wa dare? (what's your name)."

Again the question came out of Megumi's mouth, making Taehyung surprised. This is the third time Megumi has asked for her name.

"True, forget it. " Megumi turned her chair back to face forward. He seemed to have ended the conversation with Taehyung.

Meanwhile, Kim Taehyung could only look at Megumi's back with a bland feeling. He wondered if his name was too difficult to remember. Although he is not Japanese, but that does not mean his name can not be remembered by someone. His gaze glanced at Megumi who was drawing a man with a yellow rose.

"Megu. -" Taehyung's words were cut off when he wanted to ask if Megumi liked flowers. He had to prepare a history textbook because his teacher had come.

Two hours passed Taehyung felt very tired because of the history lesson. Actually not because of his subjects but because his writing uses kanji letters that he does not remember much.

"Kim let's go." Hiroaki invites Taehyung to change clothes because soon sports lessons.

"Oh haik (yes). " Taehyung picks up his shirt at the locker then goes to follow Hiroaki away.

"Do you know Saibara? "Ask Hiroaki suddenly as the two of them walked towards the field.

"No..! It's just that I've met before, but it looks like Megumi never met me. "Jawab Taehyung and tied the headband on his head.

"Saibara Chan has a psychological disorder, she will remember what she wants to remember and forget what she wants to forget. So just relax if you talk to him." Hiroaki gave an explanation to Taehyung even though it was a secret that he had to keep.

"Ehhh how does that mean." Taehyung said as if wondering.

"Anoo she's a little weird isn't it, Saibara just loves the anime she's drawing. Come... " Hiroaki hit Taehyung's shoulder slowly before running towards the field.

Sports lessons take place with great fun, Taehyung sports talent has been seen by many friends. Someone invited Taehyung into the futsal club and someone invited him to join the tennis club. But Taehyung has not taken it seriously.

Megumi and Rikako still play tennis, but many times Megumi can't hit the ball well. They both seemed to be not serious about playing that game. Taehyung saw it from ignorance, his lips smiling because it was nice to see a happy-looking Megumi smile.

"Megaz... Watch out...!!!? " Rikako shouted as the basketball floated in the air towards Megumi's head.

Megumi simply closed her eyes letting if the ball hit her. Slowly he opened his eyes as for a long time Megumi did not feel anything in her head.

Taehyung who also saw him immediately ran to hug Megumi's head. The basketball fell on Taehyung's back.

"Are you okay?" Tanya Taehyung who also slowly let go of her embrace. Now his eyes are looking at each other. Taehyung looked at Megumi deeply, paying attention to every detail of the woman's face that managed to make her heart beat faster.

"Houmm,."Answer Megumi and nod.

"Hiroaki, play it carefully." Shouted Taehyung and threw a basketball at him.

Hiroaki also felt surprised that Taehyung called out his first name. All his friends probably already thought that he and Taehyung were already close friends.

"Come here and play with us." Take Hiroaki with a smile, no need to think long Taehyung directly ran towards Hiroaki.

"Hey hey's... Looks like the prince figure in your picture has appeared in the real world." Said Rikako who was walking closer to Megumi.

"That's right. The man I drew is now real." Reply Megumi while looking at Taehyung. After a few seconds Taehyung also saw it, Megumi immediately lowered her head because their eyes were crossed.

"Let's get the ball right." Rikako invites Megumi to pick up a tennis ball splattered on the floor. They cleaned up the tennis equipment and returned it to the gym.

While Taehyung was getting excited after seeing Megumi's smile. He was ready to shoot and finally...

.

.

.

.

."Yossshhh." Taehyung managed to put the ball into the net and scored 3 points.

"Sugoi...(cool). Hey, join the basketball club. " Take Hiroaki and Taehyung just smile.
