...-----()----...

'Another day, another night, ' Kanna thought as she trudged down the sidewalk to her house. 'What's the meaning to life...?'

She continued to walk down the sidewalk, thinking. Suddenly, she stopped dead in her tracks. There, in front of her house was a large moving truck. The movers carefully lifted all their furniture into the truck. She watched and stared the men as if they were aliens. The people talked in and out of the house, carrying her furniture,

"Oh...?" Kanna murmured before sprinting into the house in search of her mother. Once she was inside the house, she found her mother calmly directing the movers.

"Honey! Back from school so early?" Kanna's mom responded to Kanna's outburst, forcing a tight smile.

"Care to explain, mother?" Kanna inquired impassively in a demanding tone, gesturing to the movers. Not waiting for her mother's answer, she quickly took a step to the right and opened her arms, thus blocking the movers. "Please put our stuff down. I cannot let you take my stuff." Kanna stated coldly, her eyes boring into the movers. Her voice was calm as usual, but her usual silky white hair became noticeably quite messy and spiky.

"C'mon now, honey. Come with me. I need to tell you something," Kanna's mother said sternly with a sigh. She walked over to where the sofa used to be. Kanna reluctantly followed her mom's instructions.

"I have been meaning to tell you this for a long time, but I didn't know how to put it... or when..." Kanna's mother began, only to be cut off by Kanna.

"Please do not beat around the bush and get to the point, mother. "

" Well, Kanna honey, the thing is that I found a new job. It's in the south. So, we are moving... I'm so sorry, honey."

Hearing this, Kanna quirked an eyebrow, and stared at her mother icily. 'So you are to tell me that I have to leave everything because you found a this new job...? I believe I should have some say in this decision.'

Suddenly, Kanna felt a pang in her chest. It hurt deep inside and yet though it wasn't physical pain. It seemed to hurt mentally... Kanna quickly shook it away and looked back at her mother.

Kanna's mother let out an exasperated sigh. She hate when her daughter spoke like that. "Kanna dear, please do understand that money is a big concern in this family. If only, your father...---" Kanna's mother trailed off, looking distant as unshed tears formed in her beautiful green eyes.

Kanna's father, Naraku, had walked out on the family years ago when Kanna was about four years old.

Little Kanna felt torn apart for so many days because of her father's departure. She bawled her eyes out in hope that her father would come back, but no such luck. When her crying stage was over, she began to feel angry. Angry at her father for leaving. Angry at her mother because she didn't do anything to stop him from leaving. Angry at fate! She had even gone as far as locking herself in her room and refusing to eat for two days. Finally, she thought about it in a different perspective again... Maybe it wasn't her mother's fault or father's fault. Perhaps the reason was her. If only she had been a better child. If only she didn't show so much weakness now. Form that day on, she vowed to refrain from showing her emotions and avoid emotions at all cost. At that time, she believed her feelings would only drag her down and nothing good will ever become it...'

And to add to that, Kanna had long forgotten how her father looked like. The only thing she knows is that her mother gets a distressed look when hearing or talking about her dad.

"Southern..." Kanna whispered to herself as she stared blankly at the wall. Deciding to change the topic, Kanna looked back at her mother and questioned in a softer tone than before, "Well mother, exactly how southern...?

Her mother snapped back to reality and quickly replied, "Huh? Oh. The place we'll be moving to is in Osaka." (A/N: Osaka is in Japan)

"Oh..."

"Kanna honey..." Kanna's mother began.

"I will begathering my possessions, mother, " Kanna interrupted plaintively and with that, she turned her back to her mother and walked up the stairs to her bedroom.

...---)(---...

It took three hours, but Kanna did it. She had sorted all her necessary possessions and place them neatly in a cardboard box for the movers to bring down.

"Kanna! C'mon honey, let's go now!" Kanna heard her mother bellowing from her room and stood up slowly, trudging down the stairs. Her mother was waiting for her by the door. "C'mon, don't you want to see your new house?!"

"As you wish mother," Kanna responded with a small, yet audible sigh. She hesitantly got into the car beside her mother and with that, they drove off with the moving truck not far behind them.

Four hours later...

"Here we are, Kanna honey! This is our new home!" Kanna's mother declared, trying to sound enthusiastic. Kanna only nodded solemnly before looking up at their new home. The house looked amazingly new with bright red bricks and a gorgeous yard. There was a balcony filled with plants and birdcages.

Kanna raised her eyebrows and studied the house before letting out a small grunt-like sound. Kanna's mother took this as an approval and with that, she twisted the key and swiftly opened the door, gesturing Kanna to come in.

"C'mon honey, I wanna show you your new room."

"Uh-huh," Kanna said stoically with a nod.

The size of the house was nothing out of the ordinary, but the aspects of it was indescribable! There was a golden chandelier in both the kitchen and living room. Even the stairs were an improvement from her old house. The stairs were made out of maple wood and it seemed to rotate in an upward spiral movement. However, Kanna failed to notice the immense beauty of the house as she walked reluctantly behind her mother to her new room.

"Well, here we are!" Kanna's mother announced, gesturing toward a large doorway.

Kanna slowly turned the door nob, unsure of what was in the room. The door opened with a small 'crreeek' as Kanna peered into the room. It was an average room painted in sky blue, Kanna's favourite colour. The lights in the room were arranged in a weird, yet cute manner. There were small lights surrounding the edge of the ceiling. A dial controlled this. And in the middle of the ceiling, there was another light. This one was shaped into a bowl, but the outside of the light was filled with pictures of Kanna when she was younger.

"So, what do you think?" Kanna's inquired warmly, snapping Kanna back to reality.

"A room is a room, I suppose, " Kanna murmured without looking at her mother. .

"Oh Kanna honey, why don't you give Kagura a call to tell her the ...news... and before I forget, your new school is called Shikon High. We'll be going there to check it out tomorrow." Kanna's mother reminded Kanna before leaving the room.

"New school...?" Kanna stammered blankly...
