My first Cloud and Tifa fanfiction ^_^! I'm not so good when it comes to writing about conversations honestly, but I'll manage it. Hope that you guys will enjoy and happy reading :)
Something Is Promised
Tifa looked at Cloud with a serious look in her eyes. "So?" She asked.
"So... what?" Cloud replied, questioning Tifa.
"You're not answering me because you're too busy neglecting yourself. Is that true or not?"
"Why.. yes. But I can't help it. It's too personal."
"Then why don't you just stop what you're doing and support me and the kids? You know how much I miss you. So does the kids too."
"Yeah. But..."
"But what?" Tifa challenged him.
"I don't think I am able to do so, because I'm not so strong as a father or as a person. I just don't. I'm sorry, Tifa."
This caused Tifa's eyes to widen in clear surprise. She replied back to Cloud calmly, "Well, Cloud... You may not be as 'strong' as you said, that's my thought, but Cloud you can fight it, you can build yourself up and not make stupid mistakes. And no matter what, you can be a good parent if you can listen and understand and focus on doing what's right and not on what's wrong. Do you think that I'm correct?" Tifa faced him.
"Well, yeah.. I think so."
"Exactly. So, I know that you're going through a lot and been through a lot and that scares me a lot because I'm so worried about you, you know?"
"Yes. I appreciate your concern, Tifa." Cloud looked and smiled towards Tifa.
Tifa smiled warmly at him. "Good. Ok. I'm glad that you're acknowledging what I've told you. Let's make a promise."
"Of what?" Cloud asked.
"That we should always build our understanding and love together as a family, and that you have to stay grounded. Is that fair?" Tifa said as she leaned a bit close to Cloud.
"All right. I can deal with that."
"Great! Then I believe that something important is promised already." Tifa said with a wry smile towards Cloud. Cloud almost chucked to himself as he and Tifa walk out of their small bedroom heading to Marlene and Denzel.
So I think that I did all right somewhat, not too proud but okay :). Review by PMing me, if you want.
