I don't own OHSHC...
Warning: The story you're about to read might not be plotted from the original story of OHSHC...
"Its raining..." haruhi said to herself.
"Okaa-san" looking to her mother's photo with tears rolling down her eyes.
"I miss you so much... both of you..."
Flashback:
"Okaa-san watch out!" I yelled at my horrified mother. But it was too late...
SCREEEEEECH...
"Okaa-san?" I whispered.
The last thing I remember is my mother smiling at me then everything went black.
"Okaa-san... are you alright? Can you hear me?" I mustered all my strength to call out my mother but it was futile. And everything went black. Totally black.
"Vital signs stable, Blood pressure normal"
"what's happening? Who are you people... where's mother?" i asked myself. All i can hear are faint sounds of sirens and people yelling.
"Ouch... it hurts mother it hurts..." I complained but I can't find the strength to move my body away...
Then i felt my body is being wheeled to a long hallway... white lights blinded me...
"Mama?" I whispered
"Relax, miss... you're going to be alright..." I heard someone said it but i don't know him. I tried everything to stay awake but i was overwhelmed by that unending darkness.
Then I felt something is attached to me. Everything hurts, I tried to move my arms but every movement felt like I was hit by a ten wheeler truck. I winced in pain.
Then i felt something warm touching me. "Is that you mom?" I asked myself but before i could find myself to ask who it is, it was already gone... and I fell asleep.
"Mother!" I yelled as i opened my eyes.
"Ouch! My head hurts..."
"Ah... Fujioka-san you're awake!" an unfamiliar voice welcomed me from my eternal slumber. I can't even recall how long i was asleep, but still I felt very tired. I could only open my eyes half way... open enough to see my surroundings even in a blurry vision.
"Where's okaa-san?" i whispered.
"Don't worry Fujioka-san your mother is doing very well in another hospital." the stranger said.
"Thank goodness, she's okay..." i thought to myself. But something felt wrong... its like he was lying... lying about my mother.
"Just, focus on your recovery my dear... and we will make sure that you will recover from your injuries in no time."
I don't know why, but I trusted him... i trusted everything he said. But i know there's something wrong.
That's the last time I heard from my Mom during my whole stay at the Hospital. The doctor refused to tell me more than that... so my suspicion grew. Until one day
"Congratulation Fujioka-sama for being discharge from the hospital" one of the nurse greeted me.
"Thank you,,, uh,,, is there any chance that my mother would pick me up today?" i asked politely as possible.
"Huh? Fujioka-sama? Didn't you know?"
"huh? What is it? Tell me" I asked sternly
"I know there's something wrong from the very start." I thought
I could clearly see the hesitation from the nurse's face.
"Fujioka-sama, you're mother... ... didn't make it..."
"M-my m-mother? She didn't make it? She's gone?" i could not believe what I am hearing...
Everything fell, it felt like being in the car accident the second time but more painful. I mustered all my strength to digest everything. But it was no use, I collapsed on the floor crying.
"Your mother died protecting you from the accident, that's why you weren't hurt badly."
"OKaa-san... why?" I mumbled
All of my memories came rushing back. My memories with my mother and father. My mother who cared for me my entire life is now gone.
I staggered back on my feet wiping my tears away. I know my mother would not want me to see me in this state. Instead she would stand up and face the world. But i know it won't be the same again, I'm the last Fujioka.
"uh... excuse me Ms. Fujioka would like me to get you a ride back to your home?" one of the nurse asked me gently.
"Yeah, that would be nice. Thank you."
It felt like hours from the usual 30 minutes ride home. I kept recalling all my memories with my parents. All the hardship, which we went through after otou-san left. It came back, even though I don't like it. It haunted my memory all ride long.
The image of my mother's coffin laid in our house entered my mind.
"Okaa-san.." I thought
"Miss we're here...I'll just unload your baggage alright?" the elderly driver said to me
"Ah, thank you very much..." I replied politely.
During the funeral all my relative showed sympathy towards me. Even if we weren't close to them, some are just here for show.
"Haruhi,I'm sorry for the loss." One of my aunt said.
"So what's your plan now Haruhi? Your now alone, where do you plan to live?" she continued
"I'm going to say here. This is our own house, except if you guys plan on throwing me out of here?" I said bluntly.
"Errr... now now Haruhi, don't be like that. Remember we're still family..." my uncle nervously said.
"Family? What are you blabbering about? It's always been me and my mother." I thought.
I then slowly got up and sat near my mother's coffin, but even in the distance I could hear my other relatives talking about who will take care of me.
" I can't possibly take care of her! I already have a handful around the house!" one of my aunt said
"Me either, my home is very far from the university she's studying! It would be very inconvenient on my part!'" one of my uncle protested
"I really wanted to have a child, but I don't like her. She reminds me of our dreaded sister!" one of my aunts complained.
"Oh, mom, why did you leave me with these kinds of people?" I asked my mom silently.
"I'd rather died with you, than letting me live with one of your sibling mom, they'll make my life more than hell." I complained
"Just listening to them makes me nauseous already..." I sighed
After we buried my mother, we had a family meeting regarding on who will be my guardian. Then one of my cousin took out my mother's things and gave it to me.
"Haruhi I found a passbook on your mother's things, I think Its right that I should give this to you." My cousin sid to me as she handed me my mother's passbook.
I slowly browsed the passbook and found out that it was named after me.
"Seventy million yen?" I whispered.
well that's it... I was working on a nice cliffhanger for the first chapter.

I'm thinking of giving this story a little twist...
I'm going to start a survey:

the top answer will be revealed in the next chapter and will be making his first appearance.
How's does sound?
i'LL UPDATE THE NEXT CHAPTER AS SOON AS I GET THE RESULTS FROM THE ANY REVIEWS
