Departure

Just In: Atlantican troops have broken through the Japanese Pacific frontier. Intelligence suggests that their next target may be major cities in central Japan. Anyone living in Tokyo, Yokohoma, Osaka, Kyoto or Kobe is strongly advised to take precautionary measures.

Misaki stared at the television screen with a vacant expression on her face. She had large bags under her bloodshot eyes and her eyelids were stained with a faint purple hue. Her face had lost its colour and was now a sickly pale shade.

"Mommy, why do I have to go?" Yue asked.

Misaki quickly reached for the remote and turned the television off. "Have you picked what toy you're taking with you?"

"I did, I'm bringing Usaa-chan."

"Yue, that toy is all worn out. Why don't you pick something else? You have so many nice new toys."

"No! I want to bring Usaa-chan, he's my best friend."

Misaki laughed. "Alright then, you can Usaa-chan."

"Mommy, why do I have to go? I want to stay with you."

"But you're going to miss out if you don't go. Grandma Minako says she'll take you to an amusement park. You can ride the Ferris wheel and the Merry-Go-Round. You'll have lots of fun with Grandma Minako, way more fun than if you stay here with me."

"Then come with us. I want to ride the Ferris wheel with Grandma and mommy and daddy too."

Misaki smiled. "I'm sorry. I wish I could go with you, but I just can't. I have to stay here."

"If you're not going then neither am I," said Yue, pouting. He crossed his arms and sat down firmly on the couch.

Misaki walked over and sat down on the floor in front of him.

"I promise that when daddy comes back, we'll all go together, alright?"

"Okay mommy," he replied.

"Now, come on. Let's go get your stuff; we don't want to keep Grandma Minako waiting."


Misaki hurried to open the front door after hearing a sharp knocking sound coming from it.

"Is he ready?" asked Minako, her voice urgent.

"Yes. Do you have everything you need? Money, papers?"

"Everything."

"Hi grandma!" said Yue excitedly.

"Hey! There's my favourite grandson. Are you ready for our vacation? I've got all sorts of fun activities planned for us."

"Mm-hm. Mommy says you're going to take me to the amusement park."

"I sure am. Now, I'll get your things in the car while you say goodbye to mommy."

Yue ran to his mother and embraced her tightly. "I'm going to miss you mommy."

"I'm going to miss you too, Yue," said Misaki.

"Why are you crying?" he asked.

"Oh, no reason," she replied, quickly wiping away her tears. She knelt down and said, "Now, you be a good boy."

Yue lifted his hand and wiped away his mother's tears. "I will," he said.

"Yue, why don't you go sit in the car. I've got to talk with your mother for a bit," said Minako.

The two watched as Yue sat walked to the car and fastened his seatbelt.

"He has grown up, hasn't he?" asked Minako

"Yeah, they grow up so fast," replied Misaki.

"Misaki, this may be the last time I ever see you again," said Minako.

"I know." Misaki reached over and gave her mother a hug. "Bye mom."

"Goodbye Misaki."

Minako started the car and pulled out of the driveway. As she turned to leave, she lowered the car windows and waved at Misaki.

"Bye mommy!" cried Yue, frantically waving his hand.

"Bye! Have fun you too!"

Misaki watched as the two drove off. She walked back inside the house and shut the door. She covered her face as tears began to flow from her eyes. She sobbed uncontrollably as she fell to the floor.

Blind eyes do not see,

The red the flows from my wrists,

The flowers still bloom,

And the birds singing still fly,

Even while tears do flow.

Sorry! This chapter doesn't really clear things up either. I promise to try and include some more information in the next chapter about what's going on. I hope you enjoyed the chapter.
