Disclaimer: To those that are the Detective Conan fans, I do not own Detective Conan.
Prologue
Back to Japan
"...Mom?"
Ran blinked and glanced up at her eldest child, unknowingly dropping the piece of paper gripped in her hands. The white thing fluttered and landed on top of the table, creased and tear-stained.
"Oh. It's you, Clara."
The girl shook her head. "Mom, I told you not to call me that anymore, remember? My name is Miyuki."
Ran shrugged, unconsciously fingering the letter that had dropped out of her hands while failing to respond.
Her daughter exhaled, letting her scowl fall away from her face. Depression stuck to her mother like a leech, and she knew that sentiments of anger wouldn't help make things better.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
Ran swallowed before pulling her daughter against her, sobbing silently. Miyuki felt the tears trailing down her back, staining her shirt and soaking into her shoulder. Still, she made no move to push away, standing quietly while waiting for her mother to pull herself together.
"Mom. What is it?" she asked again.
Ran wiped her eyes, trying to swallow the lump that suffocated her. "Your maternal grandparents. Your father. They're all dead."
Dun dun dun! And, the story begins.
Apologies for the number of words. Prologues aren't supposed to be lengthy, but I didn't know it would be this short.
Anyways, I hope you enjoyed it.
Please review!
