looked peaceful climate. It had snowed heavily during the day, but the snow had stopped in the evening , making New Year's night saw was beautiful in its image of a perfect winter day.
All the country people walk from one side to another, eventually the new year is the time when most Japanese have jobs: cleaning houses, sending cards, going to temple. Paradoxically, the time in which less walk can give a reflection that is not related to food, cleaning the house, greeting the new year and the visit to the temple.
Still, Akane could make take some time to reflect. That had certainly been a year full of problems, mistakes, surprises and changes. Above all changes. Not even the image that the mirror was returned the same to that of a few years ago: his long hair and there was no hair fell wildly over her shoulders, on that purple kimono she wore. Sigh looking in the mirror. I was 18 and still could not wear a kimono unaided, but I loved the dress. It was the few moments he felt "feminine" and happy with their appearance, although the rest of the time was a "tomboy" as she called that stupid idiot. This arrant fool who had appeared a day of spring, who was linked from the outset and who unwittingly brought her countless problems by peaceful life. And not only problems ... but a good deal of sadness
-Akane, do you need help - Kasumi asked
approached
- Yes, sister can you help me with my kimono? "I
While he tied the obi Kasumi could not help noticing his sister and melancholy that seemed to emanate.
- Is something wrong sister?
"Nothing," replied Akane while looking in the mirror.
After a moment of silence, the older sister decided to start a conversation.
- Do you know? I Like the new year.
- Why?
"I feel as if we were given the opportunity to begin again, is the opportunity we have to try to start a notebook with blank pages do not you think so? - Kasumi said ending time of tying the obi around the waist of her younger sister. - On a night no problems and only care about the future. I'll go finish making dinner, when you want low-end to dedicate a smile as she approached the door of the room.
"One night where only care about the future huh? "Akane mumbled as he gazed thoughtfully in the mirror. Clear that a knock on his window was plucked out of his musings, even more so to see her fiance idiot staring at her. With a sigh he opened the window.
- Trying spy, Saotome? De said that it was time aside for that enter his room, "What?
The boy was unrecognizable. For one night clothes seemed to have left China and was wearing a hakama and a black haori, which made will see much more adult. And also highlighted in a beautiful blue eyes. It looked even more handsome than usual
"I ... wanted to talk to you.
"Speak quickly, I have little time." he said with a hint of annoyance in his voice and looking fiercely into his eyes Shampoo Bored? Are you coming to me laugh again?
That was the underlying reason for Akane's melancholy at the time: a few hours before, when I stop the snow, they had gone to buy the ingredients for New Year's dinner. As they walked happily talking about what they would do tonight, appeared before them Shampoo, with a hint of mockery in the eyes . I did understand that Ranma happen to her the new year and not "the girl violently." While Akane was going to face in a fight with her, Ranma stood in the midst of both, saying they wanted to spend the New Year with "the tomboy Akane flat chests." This cn instead of answering an insult, only managed to lower his head and go home while Shampoo's laughter rang in his ears. Upon arriving home, locked herself in her room with no plans to leave that place
- Well?
-Akane ... I ... sorry ...
She turned away, turning his attention to the winter landscape that looked after her window.
"If you can hit ...
She could not help throwing a sarcastic laugh. That kind of talk was further proof that it was an immature, for which all boiled down to blows.
- I'm tired you know? I'm tired of your insults, of your jokes, the way I despise day after day after day ...
-
know ... "No, you do not. Not what you do to treat me well. I try to be less violent, more enjoyable, but you're insulting me every day ...
"Sorry ..." repeated the boy
-Just tell me why had to humble myself in front of shampoo today? "he said while turned around and looked into his eyes
He was not able to respond. After a few minutes in silence, she spoke with a firmness that was far from feeling.
"Get out of here
-Akane, I ...
- Let go! Now - you spit with fury his back and sitting on his desk "I need ...
-Go ... please" he ended it with a voice.
After a few minutes she heard the door of his room close. could not help but recall the words of Kasumi time to finally free the tears ran down her face and collapsed on the desk. I really wanted to at least one night stay back problems: the promised enemies, and that bizarre bizarre parade of people remain out with insults and sorrows. That the only important thing was important to wait for the 108 chimes of the new year. With. With that idiot which had fallen deeply in love. Unconsciously
account, she was surrounded by a big hug. He could feel some muscular arms and a comforting smell ... the smell of the ...
- I'm really sorry. I am a stupid, stupid. I did not want to make you mourn.
really was a fool. The fun of it was just a sign of his weakness to recognize their own feelings, not knowing admit that just wanted to be with her, hurt her deeply when I just wanted to protect her. Shampoo because he knew that he had perfected a technique that dangerous severely wounded who faced her seconds. He had managed to survive it by little, but China had made it clear that his real aim was "the girl violently" to eliminate once and for all of the race for his love. And did not think as a solution to face the girl once and for all, require it to leave quietly or scream that never marry her. It was only coward decided to hide and protect against insulting Akane Shampoo, not realizing that those words hurt a million times more than any coup or martial battle wound. And I realized too late, when he saw the sadness and despair in the eyes of Akane to let the girl next to China. And he realized that the great enemy who was a rival to protect was not Shampoo or Ukyo, and Kodachi or any of the crazies who often appeared in his life was Ranma Saotome, who was causing an insult she will be hurt the worst way to deal with the fiercest of rivals. But not anymore. Long ago had promised to protect her even if all you do in your life. That was going to say when she told to leave, but could not leave it on. So he stayed in a corner of the habitacióny closed the door. At that time I hear more mourn and was not aware of his actions
Akane
That reaction left her speechless for a moment and thought to stay forever, but finally reacted, releasing of the comforting embrace
-Ranma, I told you we're
"Not until I hear" Leave me alone
"I will not even listen to what I have to say
She turned to insult, hit, slap or do anything that managed to let her calm and that stupid years will end soon. What was not expected was to see those beautiful blue eyes staring at her with deep sadness that seemed to say "sorry" with all my heart.
While eye contact while felt his own eyes began to be flooded by the tears that they had no desire to hide, were finally able to hear, so clear like being played for both of them: 1,2,3,4 ... the 108 strokes that gave start to the new year.
He was the first to recover speech.
"I'm sorry Akane. I hate to see you mourn and curse myself for grieve every day. It is very likely to not believe what I say, but ...
was interrupted by a hug, hug her. While the bells were ringing through the streets
-only this was what I wanted for New Year ... thanks Ranma, "he said with his face in the boy's kimono. A time I felt arms of around it.
If it is true. It is impossible that in one night everything better and that the problems go away. But sometimes, the magic of a new year gets things going well. Without even dream of alcon, eggplant and Mount Fuji ...

author notes: awww maybe I was a little OOC, but I really liked this fic was part nn the challenge of 30 days (which could not keep * sob * I had it planned long ago, but between one thing and another late and recently I could bring it today. I doubt you upload it to ff.net, at least until next YEAR , or xD.
Cultural notes -Postcards: in Japan, tend to send New Year cards. Generally these are delivered on January 1.
-Costumes: I think it is clear what is the kimono, but may have problems with the clothing that carries Ranma. Just as women wear kimono for special occasions, men wear a kimono with hakama (pic
example of a Japanese wedding ). That is less in a normal context, but if we remember shows like Bleach, Rurouni Kenshin, we can see these items.
-The 108 strokes: When the new year, 108 strokes touch Shinto temples, making the bell 108 is just when the year begins. It is one of the typical images of the Japanese New Year
- The dream of the falcon / eggplant / Mount Fuji: The Hatsuyume (the first dream of the year) say it is good to dream with the falcon, eggplant / Mount Fuji, because it brings good luck throughout the year. It is also good to dream of a white snake.
