A Memory Better Left Forgotten
Chapter 1 - A past becomes present
As Ryoma sat flicking channels on the television he came across a nightly crime program that explored horrendous crimes against people all over the world. The crimes they explored were both recent and old, However when Ryoma came across the subjects of tonight's program he wished he never had.
The program ironically entitled 'Horrendous crimes of the past and present' brought up a picture of a young boy about 7 years of age. When Ryoma saw this his mouth went dry and he started to break out in a cold sweat. Memories started to replay in his head, memories that he wished he didn't have.
As Nanjiro was walking past about to ask if Ryoma wanted to play a match with him, he noticed that Ryoma was being unusually quiet. He knew his son was watching television so he went to see what was intriguing his son so much. However once he saw what it was he instantly ran over to his son, held him tight and whispered gently in his ear "shh it's ok, it's over now, it was a long time ago. I promise to never let that happen again, What she did was unforgivable, what they BOTH did was unforgivable, But I promise you with everything that I have to never let them near you again." Ryoma leant into his father's embrace and cried until he fell asleep
Nanjiro p.o.v
I know the brat is watching television but he is never usually this quiet. Usually he is paying out someone. As I got to the room lounge room I take a sharp intake of breath as I notice just what it is that he is watching. 'Oh god not this, he doesn't need this, not again' I run over to him and hold him tightly "shh, It's ok, it's over now, it was a long time ago. I promise to never let that happen again. What she did was unforgiveable what they BOTH did was unforgivable, but I promise you that with everything that I have to never let them near you again" I say to him while fighting back the thoughts of what I want to do to that woman for putting my son through all that torture and horror. No child should be exposed to that kind of horror. In fact nobody of any age should exposed to that horror.
End p.o.v
Once Ryoma had fallen asleep Nanjiro picked up his son and placed him into his bed. Karupin stood by the door waiting for her master so she could protect him. "you look after him wont you Karupin" said Nanjiro quietly "Meow" replied Karupin in response as she jumped up onto Ryoma's bed ready to protect. Nanjiro gave Karupin a quick pat before quietly exiting the room and shutting the door. 'I just hope this ordeal will eventually end, He doesn't need any more pain in his life' was Nanjiro's last thought once he had exited the room.
End Chapter 1
So tell me what you think. Should I continue or quit.
