Fake Princess
CCCII Chapter
"Silent, or nee-chan will find us," came the voice of the girl from the right side of my body, I turned to the side, and I said, I stared at the two girls who were covering their mouths with their hands.
"I find you," my body was slightly jolted at the sound of a woman near me, I turned my gaze to a woman who lowered her hand towards us.
"Nee-chan, you were so good to find us" said a girl who grabbed the woman's hand.
"really?"
"That's because you're too noisy" said the other girl crawling up to the woman.
I moved my body to crawl closer to them. My eyes stared at the whole room, behind me a two-story bed resting on an age-eaten wood.
I turned to look at the three of them who had come out of the room, I gave them both my legs stepping following them. My footsteps came to a halt, as the woman was sitting in front of a dull piano with many small children surrounding her...
The woman played the piano in front of her, the children there accompanied the piano play she did with the song they sang. I bowed my palm pressing tightly against my chest which suddenly felt tight.
The woman turned to look at me, she smiled with her eyes slightly narrowed from behind the thick glasses she was wearing. I wanted to get close to them, but my footsteps came to a halt as I felt something penetrate my body.
The middle-aged woman walked over to the young woman earlier. I looked at the bespectacled woman who was silent for a moment and then smiled towards the middle-aged woman standing beside her. The woman stood up and walked away from them, I looked at her who was walking down with her hands clasping each other...
"Sakura!" Shouted the middle-aged woman who managed to make the glasses woman stop her footsteps.
"You don't have to do it, my daughter," the middle-aged woman said.
"Mother Panti, I'm fine" said the woman named Sakura turned to look at them.

I stood up as Sakura's door opened, following her walking footsteps with a bag on her shoulder. He walked with both feet on his tiptoes, stepped slowly closer to a door and opened it.
Sakura made her foot run after she closed the door she opened, I put my feet behind her. My footsteps slowed down again as Sakura had returned to walking with her irregular breathing.
I stopped my steps as Sakura walked into a building, I glanced at some of the men and women who were wearing the exact same clothes that Sakura was wearing.
I ran back to Sakura who had closed her shoe locker. Both of my legs followed him from behind, Sakura lowered her head as long as she stepped, even the whispers of some people who were bullying her seemed to be indifferent to her.
"Are you sure you want to do Miyuki?"
"I'll try to get that scholarship, Sensei. So, sign me up to follow him," Sakura said staring at the middle-aged man.
"For so long your lesson values have only been average. Don't dream of getting a scholarship there, I'd rather recommend you to a university that's nearby" said the middle-aged man.
"Please Sensei, I'll prove it if I can do it. I'll graduate with the highest grade, I'll make sure" Sakura lowered her head, clutching the long skirt she was wearing firmly.
"I have to get into the best university, that way... I will very easily get a job later, I have to help the Mother of the parlour to take care of all their expenses. Please Sensei, I will definitely not embarrass you," Sakura said back to the middle-aged man.
A light slapped my face, I gave both my eyes flickering with both hands moving to rub my eyes earlier. I moved my eyes around again when my eyes could see clearly...
I turned to look at Sakura who was walking with a book in her hand. I followed her step closer to a minimarket, I stood looking at her who had changed the clothes she was wearing.
Sakura stood behind a table with her head bowed looking to count something. My head turned as a man wearing a head covering entered the minimarket.
The man shot at Sakura who was standing still with both her hands raised upwards. I threw my hand through the glass door of the minimarket, many times I screamed Sakura's name non-stop.
I stepped in when the man wearing the head covering opened the glass door. I sat down weakly as I saw Sakura lying weakly with blood flooding her body...
"Sachi!"
"Sa-chan! Awake up!"
"Sachi, wake!"
The voices were twitching all around me, I put my head around trying to figure out where it came from. I was stunned, as my eyes fell on a long brown-haired woman surging in the middle looking at me from behind the mirror using her two green eyes.

"Sachi," said a man, knocking back at my ear, I opened my eyes a little trying to look at him.
"Izu nii-chan," I said, holding up one palm of my hand against her cheek.
"Thank God, thank God you're okay" he said, lifting up my body and hugging it.
"What's going on? Izu nii-chan, what happened?" I said as I glanced at Haruki and Zeki who were looking at me with a pale face without a sound.
