Welcome to Gaia! ::

Chigusa was talking with some of her classmates about graduation and their future. She laughed a bit before her phone rang. She got her phone and went out for a bit. "Hello?" "Chigusa-chan...when is your graduation?" "Pretty soon! My class is getting ready to make flowers for the ocassion. Why, mother?" "Your father and I were curious. I need to go now. I have work to do." Chigusa hung up, then went back inside. "Sorry. My mom called and asked about graduation...she sounded a bit shaky though..." she murmured her last sentence before looking at the clock. "Did something happen? The teacher was suppose to be here a few minutes ago..." one student murmured before Chigusa went over to Higuri. "Higuri. What do you plan to do after graduation?"

Chigusa blushed, looking down. "Oh...um...but. You have really high scores and you can get into college easily....you should go to college..."

Chigusa shook her head. "Your parents would probably want you to go to college..." she said before a teacher came in. "Hello class, your teacher has called in sick so today will be a study hall. A substitute will come in shortly." he said before leaving. Chigusa rested her head on Higuri's desk, pulling a chair over. "You should...I would go to college, but....with my average grades, my clumsiness and other things, I might not get into the college I want..."

Chigusa nodded softly before smiling at him. "Okay...but...you'll go to college, right?" she asked him sweetly. "I'll...do my best with college..." she murmured before she heard her name being called. Three schoolgirls waved her over to come out in the hallway. Chigusa's face turned pale, but she looked at Higuri with a smile. "I'll be back, okay?" she said before leaving and closing the door behind her. "Didn't we tell you to get away from Higuri?! He's ours!" Chigusa started shaking. "I-I'm sorry..." "You better be! This has gone long enough!" one of the girls were about to walk by Chigusa, but she was then tripped. "You smart brat!" Chigusa did an uppercut to the girl, then looking at the other two. "I'm sorry....but...y-you just can't say that a guy you like....i-is yours..." One of the girls took out a zap gun. "We just hate girls like you! Cute...innocent and without a care in the world! The world doesn't need you!" "Shut up!!" Chigusa suddenly shouted before kicking her. A teacher, seeing what she did, called her into the teacher's office. The entire thing could be heard in the classroom.

"Chigusa. We know you are a new student and is having a hard time fitting in, but violence will not be tolerated. We will call your parents and discuss this with-" "They won't be coming..." "Excuse me?" Chigusa got up. "I am missing class. I'll be leaving n-" when she turned, she saw her parents and a bag was with her mother. "Mom..." "Chigusa. Remember the discussion we talked about? Your father and I are disowning you. You've changed since you played that game and you refuse to go into the medical field." she dropped the bag onto the ground. "Live however you want, but don't bring it upon us." "You b***h!" Chigusa shouted at her. "Just because I want to follow my dream, not yours, you're abandoning me!? What kind of mother are you?!" with that, Chigusa grabbed the bag and went out of the room. She then went outside underneath a tree and started to cry.

Chigusa hugged her knees to her chest, crying into them before she heard footsteps.

Chigusa looked up and was shaking, her eyes red from crying so much. "H-H-Higuri..." she murmured, holding him tightly, crying into his chest.

"I-I know...but...but my parents just left me...." she sobbed, holding onto Higuri's shirt tighter.
