Soul Harvest
Chapter Four:
-December 15th-
Dear Kasaan,
Thank you for consisting me to come to this college. I really appreciate it. But
since the hard tests are coming up, I won’t be able to make it the 20th. I
promise I will try to make it the 22nd or the 23rd. If I make it on Christmas
Eve, I will be there early. I will buy everybody’s presents here. Hikari and I
are going Christmas shopping today for everybody. Hikari is my friend in this
school. My only friend. We met realizing that we were roommates. She is fun to
hang out with but I do not like her that way. She just shows me around. She also
came from Japan. I don’t know what place but she told me all about it last
night.
I have had in mind what I am gonna get you for Christmas. I guarantee that you
are going to like it. As for me, I don’t care what presents you give me. I
just want to be with my family!
Lots of Love,
Shuichi
I wrote this letter to Kasaan and mailed it hopping it will get there some good
timing. Hikari drove us to the mall. The mall was rather large and crowded.
“First stop. The jewelry store!” She dragged me cheerfully into the store
and looked through the glass-covered countertops. “Whoa! Look at this one!”
Hikari’s eyes sparkled as she looked at a golden diamond ring. Soon, I knew
she would be drifting off into her own little world now.
“I want my future husband to give me and engagement ring with diamonds and
rubies, with the stones romantically shaped like hearts and roses and flowers
and………..ah……….how beautiful that will be!” She drifted across the
store in her little world. I blushed in embarrassment but I was too busy picking
out the ring I would buy for Kasaan.
“I’ll take that one.” I pointed at a ruby ring. The ruby was shaped like a
rose and glistened within the light of the light bulbs above me. I paid for the
ring and the clerk handed it to me in a gift box. I looked at the ring for the
rest of the night excited to give it to her.
-December 16th-
The tests were given today and I have never been so nervous. If I failed this
test, I would start the task all over again. The first task usually took a week
to cover. I’ve worked to hard to fail, I finally realized. Hikari and I both
looked at each other nervously as the test papers were being handed out.
“YahooOOOo !!” Hikari laughed victoriously as she showed me her paper. 85
percent. I smiled at her. I finally got my paper handed back. 105 percent. Ah.
What a relief! Hikari and I are ready to go on to the next task!
“Shuichi! You have some mail.” Hikari tossed me two envelopes. One from Tami
and one from Kasaan. I quickly ripped the one from Kasaan first. It read:
Shuichi,
I am glad you are enjoying yourself in America. If you get this letter on the
16th it would be a miracle. The weather here is terrible! Ice storm warnings
have been everywhere on the weather channels. I think you should wait before you
come home to us. I don’t care if it’s after Christmas. There is no sense in
you flying in that weather! I checked the airports and they say that most of the
flights have been canceled. There has been a plane crash in the ocean and every
passenger has died. One of those passengers could have been you! I was so afraid
that was you. But now I know cause I received your letter not too long ago. I am
so happy you are alive! Just stay in touch and I will think of something.
I Love You,
Kasaan
I felt tears in my eyes. Not looking at Tami’s letter, I ducked into my covers
and I tried to find a way to come home for Christmas.
