Always be yourself

“One more day began for young Ichigo, the daylight kissing his forehead causing his eyes to open to adjust to reality. The boy lived in the city of Tokyo, because he and his 7-year-old sister Ai transferred them to Tokyo from Mexico so that the older one could study psychology. The years flew by and the oldest had finished his degree and was studying his master's degree. Life apparently couldn't have been more cruel than the one they already had. The terminal amnesia that the young man had would take a big turn in his life when he was only 10 years old, and what was the accident like? Nobody knew it and he himself could not remember it in all those years. It didn't matter much to him, as he got used to it fast and adapted quickly. The problem was how to take care of a sister younger than 7 years old. . .with an amnesia that could one day end your brain and die. Every day he thought about it, he meditated on it and he never came to a very specific answer, but he carried on from day to day. In 2023 it was not a thing of the other world, it was just one more year for this pair of brothers. "Wasn't there supposed to be a virus tormenting people?" thought that thought let it pass. Someone under his bed brought him to reality.

- Good day brother! - Ai woke up with a humble smile.

-Good morning sister- with some laziness even the older one was still in the second dream, but even so the smile was warm for the younger one.

And so the day began. The two got up, the older one prepared the food while the younger the two simple dishes. The department had given them to her parents even if Ichigo didn't remember anything about them she knew it was a gift from them.

As Ichigo left, he was curious if that house was previously the house of the 4. They took their things and went first to Ai's elementary school. The view in the central district was always beautiful, the bridge on which a river lay was always the favorite of those two. The young man came to elementary school, he released Ai from his shoulders.

-Well sister, you know take care, okay? - Said the major.

-I'm not as careless as the hair you bring brother - she said the latter laughing and saying goodbye to her brother.

"What a girl" thought the young man, fixing his hair somewhat tousled. He went off to college, and to tell the truth I noticed that he always had green streaks in his hair just like his little sister. Why he didn't know, but he didn't care.

The day for the fast pace, he was always alone since the young people somewhat younger than him always decided to go to discos and those things that the young man did not fit in his head. He almost lunged to go to elementary school when a boy took him by the arm.

-Hey. Ichigo, you always forget the notebook from the last class. Here you go- said that robust-looking young man.

-Thank you very much Watt, it usually happens to me often. - The young man smiled and left for primary school.

The hours flew by for the young man, and in no time he was in elementary school. The elementary school where Ai found himself on the bench where he always waited for his older brother.

- Hello again brother! How are you? - Asked the minor.

-All good Ai, and you? - said

-Not bad, it's time to go home. - Ai smiled as usual and climbed on the older's back.

Even the warm scenery was the same as every day. The Mexican stall where they sometimes ate in order not to make food. The bridge on which Ai fed the fish, and the flower shop. The flower shop where she always tickled Ichigo, as if someone important or familiar was there. But the courage was not enough for the young man. Night fell, the two of them had ramen for dinner and put on their pajamas.

- Do you believe in spirits brother? - asked the minor

-Yes, possibly there is one of you inside. Now to sleep that tomorrow is the weekend. - She smiled again at the minor.

-Okay, weekend My favorite! - And so in a few more minutes the minor fell asleep.

Ichigo stared at the window of the immense city of Tokyo, something told him that he should visit that flower shop. That flower shop where your memories could be. In the lotus flower position Ichigo gave a last sigh to later settle into bed and sleep. With the question that always accompanied him every night: "What awaits us in the future?"
