Chapter One: Broken Love

"I'm sorry, Haruka"

"No, I don't believe this. Tell me this is not true," Haruka held Michiru by the shoulders. She looked at her eyes desperately finding for an answer.

Michiru looked down and whispered in her saddest voice.

"It is...true. Haruka, accept it!" she tried not to look at Haruka.

Haruka loosened her grip on her. She turned to go and tried to hold back her tears. She walked towards the door longing to get away and do some thinking. Michiru's gentle voice halted her.

"Haruka...I'm sorry."

"How could you...Michiru?" She answered back trying to suppress the fact that tears are falling down her face.


Haruka calmly walked down the halls of the mansion. She trudged down the stairs and headed to her car outside.

"Michiru, I thought you felt the same way. You deceived me. You don't know how much pain I'm in right now. You just don't know." She thought as she searched for her keys and went inside the car.

She drove aimlessly. Haruka continued driving onto nowhere as thoughts came speeding in her head.

"I thought your love was real. All those times when I held you close to me. All those times when you whispered those three words that will always make my heart melt. I thought all of those were true."

More and more angry thoughts raced through Haruka's mind. She clasped her hands tightly on the steering wheel. Her speed read 70 and rising.

"Those times when we get together just enjoying each others company, I cherished them all. But did you? How could you, when your mind wanders and your heart beats for someone else."

Haruka's head throbbed with frustration. She dug her foot deeper on the gas pedal. Her speed was continuously rising.

"And that smile. The smile that would always clear my mind and make me feel like I'm in heaven. I thought it was genuine. In fact, too genuine. Too genuine that I missed the secrets behind it."

Haruka's eyes were undoubtedly on the road but she was still driving subconsciously. She was dangerously going faster and faster. Her speed read 80...100...120....

"I thought we were going steady. I thought I could have you for all my life. I thought our love would never end."

...140...160...180...

"Michiru, why the change of heart? Why withdraw your feelings right when I needed you the most? Is it something I did? You know I'm really willing to change...just for you. Why, Michiru, why?"

...200...220...220...

"OH, WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO ME!!!!!!!!"

She took a sharp turn and nearly collided with a post. The tires screeched loudly as the car's engine died down. Haruka was breathing heavily. She sighed and decided to start the car again.

It was no use. Her car broke down.

"Start, damn it, start!" an irritated Haruka muttered. She was so annoyed that she started jabbing the keys violently on the ignition. She didn't stop until her fingers bled. She can hardly feel the pain.

Finally, she gave into exhaustion. Beads of sweat and tears trickled down her face. Haruka rested her head on the seat. Her eyes were misty, as if she was going to cry. She raised her hand to wipe her damp forehead, but she stopped when she saw the result of her anger.

Haruka looked at her bleeding hand. She cradled it with her good arm, trying to soothe the pain. She did it with such gentleness that reminded her Michiru. Haruka froze and recalled the pain in her heart.

"What did I do? What did I do to deserve this?"

Her sorrow was too much to bear.

Her cold exterior fell and she gave into the sadness. Haruka cried like she had never before in her life. She thought that she had voided herself from weak emotions, but the pain was just too much to bear. She didn't care anymore.
The air grew thick and fog began to appear. It was a starless night, silent and lonely. All there is in the atmosphere was the faint sobs of a bleeding soul.

Out of the blue, a rather familiar voice startled her, "Well, well, what do we have here..."

A crash of broken windows and a piercing scream, then the night fell silent again. There was absolutely no sound as the fog completely engulfed the city.
