Chapter 1: A Memory

"You remember? Do you know who I am? There in your locker you will find a flower, in the same place you will fall in love. The flower shop is waiting for you, Ichigo. " Young Ichigo's breathing was light and slow. That voice shook him completely from the bed, he did nothing but whisper light sighs in order not to wake Ai. It was 6:00 in the morning, the day had not yet begun, Ichigo saw the immense city of Tokyo through the window. "What was that?" thought all the eternal minutes for him. In the end he remembered the voice over a flower in his locker.

He was determined, the young man looked for a way to decipher that voice. Time passed as usual, little Ai got out of bed with the same smile as always.

- Good morning again brother! - exclaimed the minor.

-Good morning Ai. What are you planning to do today? - Ichigo asked

-Mmm, visit the park? -

-Nothing bad. It is always good to change your routine - the young man sighed and then changed his clothes.

The youngest did the same, they prepared breakfast and then walked to the park. The day was beautiful, nothing "bad" could happen. Although watching the landscape people continued in their worlds, they followed their routine from day to day. Stressed, rushed, and not controlling your time. The central district wasn't the way it used to be, at least the books Ichigo used to read. Gender equality, the classes used to be only the "special class" and not the proletarians, but everyone was special, not happy, not sad, they were only humans who could always be good or bad. In the end, young Ichigo gave no more than a slight sigh and continued with Ai.

Hours later the two brothers were in the park with the slight breeze. Ichigo was still with the morning question, he had to go to the university to check his locker, because something told him that the flower would be there.

-Ai. Do you mind if we go to college? It'll be quick - Ichigo said.

-Humm. Will you buy me an ice cream back? - Asked the minor.

"Of course I don't see why not." He smiled and they started off.

The thought was more than present in Ichigo, the good thing is that no one was there other than the drama club practicing the play for Christmas.

- Hey hi Ichigo! - said a member of the club

-Or ... Hello. . Sebas - Ichigo stuttered. Without saying anything else, he went straight to the goal.

-Something worries you, right brother? - Said the minor without further ado.

Those words of the minor brought Ichigo back to reality. Focusing more on the steps he took.

-Sorry sorry, these are things that happen to me from time to time. Nothing to worry about, okay? - Young Ichigo smiled somewhat forcedly.

-Ok, no problem. –Said the minor without the slightest concern.

They advanced to the locker, he stopped for a moment to think about it many times before opening that locker. Something told Ichigo that that flower was there. What if it's a trap? Was that flower poisoned? What is the purpose of that voice that spoke to me? " All those questions were rejected by the young man and took a big step to open his locker.

What he found was nothing more and nothing less than a sunflower and a letter. Quite weird for young Ichigo, he looked both ways to verify that no one was looking at them. Without further thought, he grabbed it and handed the sunflower to Ai. They went home, with nothing more to say or do. The minor felt somewhat concerned by the face she was expressing. The younger refused to ask as she didn't know what the older one really thought.

"It must be someone, someone we know Ai," Ichigo said.

-If you say so brother. - Ai said confused.

The two of them came home, no one said anything. Ichigo was scared to open that damn letter. Ai took the sunflower and placed it in a tall glass with water and put it in the storeroom window. Ichigo sat on the couch and Ai next to him. "It will be OK?" thought the youngest.

- Are you ready? - Ichigo asked

-Yes. Without a doubt - she said determined.

The older one was scared of that determination Ai had, but it made him happy at the same time. They opened the envelope slowly, slowly I saw the calligraphy. The cursive letters and the signature, he sighed slightly and they read the letter:

Dear Ichigo and Ai:

“Hello, maybe this letter you will be reading with some fear and joy at the same time. Yes, as you saw Ichigo. . I know you just like Ai. We had many memories with the flowers, plus your Ai. However, I won't say my name yet I don't want to cause your brother more pain. You're doing well! He's doing great, follow the clues and you can find me. The flower shop was always there from the beginning, I will be waiting for you. It is not a very formal letter, but it is the best I have for now. Go ahead and don't give up Ichigo, and you too Ai supports your brother a lot. "

With love: M

Pounding heartbeat Quick, short breaths. Things to Ichigo seemed like a headache to him. The amnesia wanted to go away completely. Several things came to Ichigo's mind. He couldn't handle the pain and Ai gave him a warm hug.

-Brother, everything will be fine- he said, separating later. The minor's face showed a worried face.

-Sorry. . .you know sister, it's amnesia. I'll be fine, don't worry - Ichigo forced a smile.

The minutes passed, the heartbeat was more regular and the breaths too. Ichigo slowly calmed down and things seemed normal again. That day seemed like a lot for both of them, they ate quietly and spent the day as if that letter did not succeed, but Ichigo knew what he had to do. He knew the things he had to do. "M Who is that girl?" she thought when the stars covered her entire room, the day was over for both brothers, but tomorrow was uncertain.
