Best
of Friends (Fuuko and Raiha)
By
Crystallord
This
was purely a spur-of-the-moment idea.
(A
very, very cute ten year old Raiha shyly extends his hand to
the
slightly younger girl in front of him. She stares at him and
slowly
shakes his hand. They are in a quieter part of the woods.
Their
parents are somewhere out there.)
When
you're the best of friends
Having
so much fun together
(Within
a few minutes Raiha and the young girl are playing like
they've
known each other all their life. Even though we can't hear
them,
Raiha mouths, "What's your name?" and the young girl blushes and says,
"Fuuko.")
You're
not even aware
You're
such a funny pair
You're
the best of friends
(Raiha
teaches Fuuko several names of trees and insects, and Fuuko
asks
in amazement how he knows. Raiha simply shrugs, then he smiles
and
impulsively grabs her hand.)
Life's
a happy game
You
could clown around forever
(Several
hours later, they emerge from the forest, laughing. Then
they
crash into two pairs of angry looking parents.)
Neither
one of you sees
You're
natural boundaries
Life's
one happy game
(The
two pairs of parents turn to each other and start blaming the
other.
One pair has identical white coats and sunglasses, and both
of
them are holding cellphones. The other looks like a normal couple
living
in the city. Raiha and Fuuko are staring at them, hands still
clasped,
but they look unhappy.)
If
only the world wouldn't get in the way
If
only people would just let you play
They
say you're both being fools
(From
the argument, it looks like Raiha's parents are elite scientists,
and
they don't want him mixing with "third-class" people, like Fuuko's
parents…in
the end, Raiha's father grabs Raiha's collar, and Fuuko's
mother
slaps her daughter's hand away from Raiha's…and they're off…)
You're
breaking all the rules
They
can't understand
The
magic of your wonderland
(Grabbing
their children, they stomp away. Even though they're not
allowed
to face each other, Raiha clamps his jaw shut, ignores his
mother
muttering about "bad company" and wonders what's so bad about Fuuko anyway…)
When
you're the best of friends
Sharing
all that you discover
(Fuuko
is bored to death, unenthusiastically forming a lopsided
sandcastle
in the park. Suddenly a sleek black limousine cruises
by
and stops at the side of the park. The chauffeur gets out and
walks
to the convenience store on the other side of the road.)
When
these moments have passed
Will
their friendship last
Who
can say, there's a way?
(A
figure steps out of the backseat, and Raiha, dressed in the uniform
of
one of the expensive private schools (may I describe? OK, just
imagine
a ten year old Raiha wearing a red velvet coat with black
pants),
hops out. He quickly runs to Fuuko and gives her a quick
smile.
She smiles back, and for about five minutes they busy themselves with the
sand.)
Oh
I hope, I hope it never ends
Coz
you're the best of friends
(Raiha
quickly slips back into his limousine, and before the chauffeur
comes
back, gives Fuuko one last shy smile. Then the chauffeur enters
the
car again and they zoom off. And Fuuko watches the limousine
longingly…and
looks down and sees a perfect sandcastle two tiny
figures
standing on top of it, holding hands.)
