Summary:
Tired of life in Tokyo, Miho runs away and ventures along the sea through Asia. Along the way, she meets Aoi and picks her up for company.
We made it to the Anna Miller. Despite the stop, I still didn’t let go of Sappoto-san’s arm. (I still didn’t think she would stay put if I did. But then again, she never wandered off in strange places. So innocent like a little child. That’s what childhood damage can do to you.) I looked through the glass doors as I caught my breath.
“See him yet?” I asked my traveling buddy.
“No,” she said.

Sappoto-san, the marine, and I walked through the busy streets of Okinawa. He just talked and showed us around. Sappoto-san trembled as she held my name. I looked out of the corner of my eye at her as she did so.
“It’s okay,” I whispered under my breath in Japanese. “Nothing going to happen to us.” She didn’t seem to believe me at all. I smiled at her softly.
“He’s a nice man,” I whispered. “Look, I’ll show you.” I turned to our marine friend.

Chapter Five: Docking on Okinawa:
After a day at sea, I finally spotted land through the telescope. My heart raced at the view. (Even though it had been a day, I was ready for my feet to touch the shore once more.)
“Sappoto-san, look!” I turned behind me, yelling. My friend slowly dragged her lazy behind out of bed.

Chapter Three: All Aboard:
I was the one steered the boat. (Sappoto doesn’t know how to! I don’t even think she’s even *been* on a boat before!) My travel buddy kept going back and forth on the boat looking around like a hyped-up little puppy. I could have sworn I saw her tongue sticking out as she was panting. I watched her from the rear mirror above my head. I couldn’t help but to smile to myself as I steered. She reminds me of Andi at the moment.
“Wow!!!” Sappoto said at one point. “We’re actually on the water in a boat!” I couldn’t help but to laugh at the woman. She looked up at me slightly out of her little spell.
“What?” she asked me, all doe-eyed.

Sappoto and I came to the dock on time. Perfect, nobody around. I turned to my new buddy.
"Stay here while I get the boat, okay?" I told her.
"Okay, Miho-chan," she replied. I walked over to the booth. I looked inside of the thin dark glass. It still looked pretty dark inside. I noticed the man hiding in the back with his Cream magazine. I rolled my eyes. Pervert! I thought. I knocked on the thin glass. The man looked up from his magazine. He pulled his chair close to the window. Damn, he really needs to get to a gym! This man also seems to have adopted the American style of dress too well. Dark green trucker hat, flannel checkered shirt, and a glowing hot cigarette hanging out of his mouth. This guy looked like he just woke up and needed a bath. He gave me the illusion that I could smell him through the glass.
( Read more... )My Summer Runaway
The streets of Tokyo were empty this morning. Just the way I like for plans like this. I looked around quickly. No one in sight still. Looks like a clean escape for today. I couldnt celebrate now. I had to keep going. I forced myself to keep on. The warm summer air pushed me to go on faster and faster. Escape time was calling my name. I had no choice but to go to it. I clutched my backpack tightly to my back. I walked faster and faster to the ocean port. Here it is! My ticket to freedom. Nothing is here to stop me at all! I just need to make it all the way to
A sudden shuffle stopped me cold in my tracks. I froze up annoyed. Damn it! Whos following me this early in the morning? I thought Andi had gotten up, saw the note, and followed after to stop me. I sighed aloud annoyed.
