Magic Memories
memories, just because of the job your father has, but you have to try to live and get along with all of them. It will never be easy and you will never really be able to forget, "said Jodie and looked at the girl. "But, you also said yourself that some good things happened to you, you should think about whether that is not enough for you. It's good when something nice happens. For every good thing that happens to you, one does not turn out to be the same Good things happen, but that's the way of life. "
"You are right," Ran nodded in agreement. She had never seen it like that before. A bad thing happened too, but she experienced so many wonderful things in return. "I met new people, made new friends ... even if it wasn't always good back then, it wasn't bad either," she smiled and looked at Jodie. "Thank you very much for this advice."
"You're welcome, Ran," nodded Miss Saintemillion. She was glad that she could help a student, even if she didn't know much about what the girl was talking about.
"Can I go now or do you want something else?", Ran wanted to know. She hadn't forgotten why she had to see her teacher.
"You can go, I just wanted to know why you weren't quite up to it in class earlier," Jodie said with an American accent.
"Then I'll go now," said the girl and went outside while Jodie watched her go and mumbled something softly.
"Tell me," said Sonoko curiously. On the way home she looked at her friend. She wanted to know everything, really everything, exactly.
"What should I tell you?" Asked Ran.
"What did Miss Saintemillion want from you and what did she say? You know, anyone who wants to listen to her will be caught," sighed Sonoko.It was really stupid that the teacher always knew who was standing at the door and wanted to listen.
"We only talked about why I was so unfocused today and then I asked her what she thought about my whole life," said Ran and stretched briefly.
"Oh," the other nodded understandingly. "Will you tell me why you were distracted?" She wanted to know.
Sonoko had been like that, always direct and wanted to know what her friend was saying to the teacher. But that wasn't the real reason, she also wanted to know which boy Ran was so distracted about and whether it was really Shinichi. Sonoko understood a lot, but she did not understand why Ran was still crying after the detective, even though he no longer answered her.
"You know, I was in New York with Shinichi ...", Ran began. She had never told Sonoko this story because she just wanted to forget it, but her friend knew that she was there with Shinichi.
"Yeah, you ran away with him back then," she joked with a grin. But not everyone thought it was so funny, and least of all was Ran.
"No, of course not. It was an invitation ... from his parents and we couldn't just let the tickets expire," replied Ran, slightly embarrassed. Sonoko was similar to Kogoro in that respect. He also thought that the two had just run away.
"Sure," the girl grinned.
"It's like that .. at least there were good things, but also a lot of bad things. There was a stage accident and I saved someone. However, shortly afterwards she killed the leading actor in the play we saw in the theater. I felt myself." so guilty, also thought I was her accomplice because I had saved her. After that Shinichi and I went home in a taxi and I lost a handkerchief that I got from Sharon. Shinichi went to get it for me and then I met this man.I was so scared, but he was one of the good guys who wanted me to go to the big street so that the serial killer who was up there couldn't get hold of me, "Ran kept getting quieter and quieter. Then she swallowed, looked at the floor and then at Sonoko. "Anyway, yesterday I had to think about the young man with the knitted hat. I can't get it out of my head and I always have the feeling I've seen him here several times, but I only met him once. I don't know what's wrong with me, "she sighed.
"Does Shinichi know about him?" Asked Sonoko. The expression on her face had changed a little, from happy to worried. She was really worried about Ran. Suddenly a strange man came into play.
"I didn't tell him that I met the man. There was nothing to talk about about it. But yesterday, it rained last night and I met him in the rain back then. And I'm slowly wondering if I I'll see him again. I have so many questions for him, "whispered Ran and sighed.
"But Ran ..." she muttered.
"Don't worry about me. Everything is fine, thanks to Miss Jodie I now know that I have to put up with life with bad experiences and memories and that there are also good ones and that's probably the most important thing", the girl smiled.
"She is right about that, but now tell a little more about this man," Sonoko asked her. She wanted to know more about him, even if he had apparently turned her friend's head.
"Hmm, I don't know much. He's a little older, I would estimate him at 25 and otherwise, well, I've always seen him with a black knitted hat, in New York at the time he had long black hair and when I last saw him saw, he had short hair, but still his cap on. Oh yes, and he has a very rough and deep voice, is a smoker and he thinks women who cry are weak and foolish, "Ran described the young man.She didn't talk about her suspicion that he was with the FBI. She hadn't been so sure of herself, back then she'd only seen the other man with the jacket and not Akai himself. Add to that the fact that it was impossible to see an FBI agent here in Tokyo.
"You know a lot about him," muttered Sonoko.
"You can't say that like that," Ran began and looked at the girl next to her. "It's just things that struck me then and came back to me when I was thinking about them yesterday."
"You, Ran? May I ask you something? But please don't be angry with me about it," asked Sonoko.
"Sure, you know me, ask me everything you want to know. We're best friends and don't keep secrets from each other."
A little hesitantly and almost as if Sonoko had to search for the words, she frowned and took a deep breath. "Are you in love with this man?"
