Bazillion thanks to Mishaa for proofreading this story.
Then suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of them. Then the angels started to sing, giving more beauty in the atmosphere. Mikan walked towards the light and turned. She smiled and mumbled a goodbye to the angels she considered as a family.
She was awakened by the humming of the birds and the clashing of the waves. She stood up and opened the window beside her bed, only to see the beauty of the blue ocean in front of her. She turned around when she heard footsteps nearing the door. She heard a knock and an old man who looked probably in his mid-sixties carrying a tray of food entered the door. He put the tray in the table and smiled at her.
"I'm sure you're already hungry. I prepared food for you." The old man said.
Mikan smiled and thanked him for the meal.
The old man watched Mikan while she ate. Feeling uncomfortable, Mikan tried to start a conversation. "How did I get here?" She asked.
"I saw you floating in the ocean, unconscious. Don't worry, the doctor came here and checked on you. He said you were fine and you probably were just dehydrated. I thank God nothing bad happened to you."
"Of course nothing happened to me. After all, God is always there to watch over me." Mikan said. She smiled, happy that the old man still had faith in God.
"I'll be glad if you called me Jii-chan. You see, I've never had a grandchild, but I really do want one."
"Of course. Then Jii-chan, please call me Mikan." She said and hugged him.
After eating, the old man showed Mikan the beauty of the whole resort; the pearl white sand, the deep blue ocean, the unique animals found only in the resort, and the evergreen trees.
The said resort was owned by the Hyuuga's.
"Mikan, do you know anything about where you came from? Or anything about your parents?" Jii-chan asked. They had just taken a stroll around the beach and they were now heading back towards his hut.
"I came from a place where the darkness you call night does not exist, a place whose beauty is beyond our imagination. My parents… I do have them, but I don't know anything about them."
The old man looked at Mikan with curiosity plastered on his face.
"I don't remember much. The last thing I do remember is waking up in that place. They said I had to forget about everything; my family, my friends… I don't hate my decision to stay there though because everyone there were free and perfect." Mikan continued.
"Do you like it here?" He asked.
"I love it here! There's no way I could hate this place after you showed it to me?" She smiled.
"Then would you want to stay here with me if you have nowhere else to go?"
"Can I really? Oh thank you!" She said excitedly.
Mikan woke to find a letter on the table from her Jii-chan directing her to the food he prepared earlier on the table. He didn't tell her his whereabouts but he did notify her that it'll be a while till he returns.
After she finished her breakfast, she went outside to take a stroll around the place. Not far from here, she came upon a park. There she found a Sakura tree and decided to lay down there.
Mikan's POV
Everything in here looks peaceful; the sky and the ocean. Is this what God planned for me? To live here with Jii-chan?
No, Mikan. This is only a part of his plan. I'm here for the good of many people and Jii-chan is only one of the 'many people'.
I felt the cool wind caressing my cheeks. I knew it was one of my friends in heaven. I'm human again, whether I like it or not, I won't be seeing my friends for the mean time.
I knew I lived here as a human being before, and then I died and became an angel. But all I can remember is my name. I really hope that I still have a family member who still remembers me… I wonder how they would react when they see me…
A ruffling sound behind the tree disturbed me. I stood up and peeked behind the tree. I gasped when I saw a couple making out. The girl was almost naked, though the boy was still fully dressed. I didn't know what to do; I wanted to run but my feet were betraying me. Then suddenly, I did the only thing I could think of: I shouted "rape!" I knew we were the only people in the park but I still hoped that someone would hear me.
"What the fu—You bitch! What do you think you're doing?" The 'almost naked' girl yelled at me.
"I'm so sorry… I thought that…" I looked at the girl and shook. The girl was pretty, with her shoulder-length pink hair and the mole beside her upper lip, but her tone of voice offended me.
I looked at the boy who was smirking at me. Why is he smirking at me? Shouldn't he be the one mad at me since I did interrupt his raping session…
"What are you staring at bitch?" I heard the girl said.
"My name is not Bitch." I said, annoyed at her attitude. I've never even heard of that word! What is that anyway?
"I don't care just get away!" She yelled again.
"You don't have to tell me that. I would gladly get away from here, and I have a suggestion for the two of you, it'd be better if you got a room. This is a public park. Thanks to the two of you, my eyes aren't virgin anymore!" I huffed.
I glared at the raven haired boy and walked away.
Calm down Mikan.
Natsume's POV
This girl is annoying me. What's her name again? Uma? Rina? Yuna? Damn. God, I wish someone would get her off me already!
I should've been with Youichi already.
"Rape!" I heard someone shout. I was glad the whore finally got off me, but it annoyed me to hell when it struck me that I was probably the rapist here.Way to answer my prayers, God,I thought.
I couldn't help but notice the girl was hot, but no way in hell would I ever admit that to anyone.
I observed her as she spoke with the whore.
"My name is not Bitch." I heard her say. I could tell she was already annoyed; even I agree, the whore really is annoying. I smirked at her and saw her send me a glare.
Interesting.
Once the brunette walked away, I glared at the bitch beside me and pushed her aside.
"Natsume-kun, we're not—"
I cut her off. "Just get away from me. I'm done with you."
I stood up and walked away, ignoring her sobs.
"How was your morning Mikan-chan?" Jii-chan asked.
"…"
"Huh? Can you tell me what happened?"
Mikan told him what just happened a while ago.
"…Can you tell me what the boy looks like?"
Mikan stared at him curiously.
"The boy has crimson eyes and a raven haired."
He choked. Mikan panicked, but regained herself in time to hand him a glass of water.
"Jii-san! Are you okay?"
The old man knew whom Mikan was referring to, but he had to confirm it again that's why he asked a question about the Boy's features. And for once, the old man was right about his guesses about the son of the Hyuuga's being the playboy of the town.
Crimson eyes-100% Hyuuga.
