## Calm Before The Storm

Nawe is a small village on an island in Paradise. It is a peaceful village close to the sea, with a good atmosphere. Today is a special day for a young man heading to a fish shop.

"Hello Mr John, how are you doing today? I will buy you two salmon and one crab. Mother said she will make me a big feast for my birthday."

"Oh, it's you, Ryuu. I am good and you ? How does it feel to be 16?" Mr John look at the young man in front of him while he put the fishs in a bag. Purple hair and red circles under his almond colored eyes. The old man can't help but be a little nostalgic. The little boy running around, laughing while his mother trying to put him to the bath, was now a soon to be adult. Time flies. "Well, I feel nothing particular, but you? When will you buy a cane to support your 60 years old body?" Ryuu said with a big smile as he toss 2 coins on the counter and start to run with the bag, hearing the curses of the old man between the laughs of the others villagers.

After that, Ryuu went to the bakery, taking two bread for the evening dinner. Before going home, he decide to go pick some beautiful flowers to put them in a vase for his mother. He already know where he will find what he is searching. The flower garden of Luna, the mayor's daughter. Ryuu enters the forest and jumps to the top of a tree. After attaining the top, he start to jump from tree to tree, traversing the forest. As he feel the wind blowing his clothes and his hair, Ryuu has the sensation that he is truly free, as if he want now, he could fly and wander in the vast world that his depict in his mother's books. Finally, after a few minutes, he arrives in front of the Vondigo's manor.

The manor is grandiose, with white walls, large windows and a black gate at the front. Despite going there a lot of times to see Luna, Ryuu is still impressed each time. He rings at the gate and a few seconds after, the butler Marc open the gate, allowing him to enter the house of his friend. "Miss Luna is in the garden." Marc said to Ryuu, not escorting the young man to his mistress and returning to his occupations. After all, Ryuu knows the path already. He walk trough the corridor and open the bay window.

When he goes out in the garden, he sees the most beautiful girl he has ever seen. The sun shine on her blonde hair, making it seem like pure gold. Her eyes with a crystal blue as pure as the most precious jewels of the sea. Her skin who is tanned because she is always out in the sun, gardening her flowers. Everything about her make Ryuu feel like he is in the presence of an angel. This is Luna Vondigo, his friend and the person he want to spend the rest of his life with. Well, Luna doesn't know that, but Ryuu don't see the need to tell her. He don't want to broke his friendship with Luna.

"Ryuu! What brings you here ? We are finally of the same age now." Luna ask Ryuu as she put down her gardening tools and go hug her best friend.

"Hey Luna, I come here to say hello and also ask if I could take some of your flowers for my mother." Ryuu answer while looking in her eyes. "Yes, but I will choose which one." Luna said with a smile as she start to think what would be the best one for Ryuu's mother. "I have decide, it will be some tulips. I think your mom will like them."

"Ok, I trust you." Ryuu laugh and sat down beside Luna.

The two teenagers start to discuss for some time and when the sun start to set down, Ryuu says goodbye to Luna and leaves the manor, heading for his home.
