I'll Always Come Back To You - Prologue

"Remind me why we're going to Japan again, Kiel?" Said the daughter of the Swiss ambassador to her brother.

"Avi, it's because he's an ambassador and we want to be with him all the time." Said the brother to her younger sister who's not really happy about transferring.

"I'd rather have him as a senator than an international diplomat. I don't want to leave Switzerland." Lavinia protested stubbornly. Her brother sighed. He can't do anything to convince his sister that it would be fine to stay in Japan. And besides, they can't back out now since they've already prepared their things, the tickets were all bought, not to mention they went through a very hard time studying the Japanese language, their kanji, hiragana and katakana. They'll be leaving Switzerland next week, just before the classes in Japan start.

"Face it, Avi, we're going to Japan and there's nothing you can do about it. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll meet new friends there."

"Yeah sure, I'll meet and befriend a lot of people. Not! I'd bet they'll run away from me before I can even approach them. Stupid bodyguards!"

Kiel sighed again. There really is no way his sister is going to like Japan.

…............................................................................................................................................

Staring outside the car window, she couldn't help thinking why she's agreed to come to the mall with her family. It's not like she'll be able to go around wherever she wants to since she'll be watched by her captors, I mean bodyguards. When they got out of the car, their driver drove away to park the car. The family entered the mall. They consisted of Ambassador Thomas Acklin, who has a brownish black color of hair, average height for someone who is in his 40's, had a brownish black moustache and beard like Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, handsome and had a good built. His wife Margaret Acklin had strawberry blonde hair that goes up to her shoulders, had chocolate brown eyes, and a bit shorter than her husband. Kiel Acklin was tall, had hair like his father, green eyes like his grandfather, with broad shoulders and chest and taller than his mother. Lavinia Acklin had the same hair and eyes as her mother. Strawberry blonde hair that ran up to her waist and chocolate brown eyes that could melt any person who stares at her for a long time, not because she glares daggers at people but because of its strong yet gentle aura. They are a family with high standards, not wanting to be second in any way and would make sure that they are always on top, but not to the point that they step on other people's way.

The family was followed by six bodyguards. One for each member of the family, though Avi had two since she always likes to slip out and tend to go missing. She'd been doing that since she was seven just to annoy her brother, but then her father has had enough and assigned two bodyguards for her, Nicolas Bianchi, an Italian retired police who settled in Switzerland, and Roche Blesi, a Swiss retired police inspector who was a good friend of her father when Thomas was still a senator.

They quickly spread out, Thomas to the bookstore, Margaret to the women's department, Kiel of course to the men's section and Avi just walking and walking around the mall.

"Roche, could you buy me some fries at McDonald's, I'm really hungry. And Nicolas, could you buy me one of those ice cream in cone, you know I love to dip fries into ice cream."

"Ms. Avi, why don't we just go inside the fastfood while Nic gets the ice cream?"

"No, thanks. I prefer it here. Guys, I'm really hungry, you think you can get the food now?" Hesitating, the bodyguards went their own separate way, Roche going to McDonald's which was just in front where Avi stands while Nicolas to the ice-cream stall which was across the fastfood.

When Avi was saw Roche preoccupied with ordering and paying for the food he ordered and Nicolas trying to get his order be noticed by the ice-cream man, she started running as if her life depended on it. Wearing black boots with two-inch heels and a blue tunic, she found her way to the exit of the mall and started running to the highway, not looking back. People would've thought she looked like a fine lady who was going nuts but she didn't care. All she wanted was to be free, go back home to Switzerland and continue studying highschool there with her closest friends.

When she got to the other side of the street, she looked for signs that her bodyguards were following her, luckily they weren't. She jumped for joy and started walking, looking through the shops that were on the sidewalk. She then spotted a store that sells gadgets and stuff like that so she went in. She pushed the glass door of the shop and heard the tinngling of the windchimes that were hanging on the ceiling. She looked through the shelves and racks, looking for a Nikon DX3 since she loves photography, and she also wants to take it as a major in college someday. When she was about to reach for the camera, somebody grabbed it the same time as her.

She looked up to see a smiling person who has closed eyes beside her.

"Saa... I'm sorry but I already had that camera reserved for me."

"Is that so? Aren't you going to be a gentleman and let the lady have it?"

The person was a bit surprised that the girl was actually foreigner yet she seems to understand Japanese perfectly. He then started talking with her in english too.

"Well, I waited for a long time just to get that camera, miss. Perhaps you can buy yours when the next delivery comes."

"Don't think so, mister. I mean I'll be going back to Switzerland tomorrow and I'm sure I won't be able to get out of the house since my parents will be scolding me for slipping away again."

"I guess I could give it to you, on one condition." She eyed the person, scrutinizing him in the most possible way she could. She then sighed and answered, "Fine, what's the condition?"

"Let's go on a date."

"Excuse me? I don't go out with people I don't know, specially people like you who looks like a gentleman but with the aura of a sadist."

"Well, I think now you're going to say yes to me."

Confused, she looked at the direction the person was looking. She gasped in surprise then grabbed him by the wrist and started running out of the store. Her face was totally worried while he was smirking.
