As Sofia was still curious what was behind that her Grandmother didn't want her to go. She then begins to hear the door begin to open. As Toshiro, begin to walk through the the two were looking at each other, giving each other eye contact.
"You must be my grandfather," Sofia said.
Toshiro starred toward her. As he remains quiet.
"Your father had told us so much about you. He wanted to bring you here. So we could meet you. But he never had the time to do so. Follow me, I think its time to show you the family history." Toshiro said.
As Sofia begins to follow Toshiro. She kept looking back toward the room. Soon they came to an stopped to one room. When Toshiro, open the door. He begins to enter the room. He begins to pull out a box. Which was full of pictures.
"Wow." She said.
Toshiro, begin to show her pictures. He begins to pulled out a family album.
"For starters, this is my great grandfather. Koushiro Izumi, this is your great grandmother Kiku. She's my mother as well. And here is your father. When he young.A bright young man a genius. He's top of his classes. He always comes home sharing his grades with us. We used to hang it on the wall. He always made us proud. Tell me, how are your grades. Even how are you doing in school?" Toshiro asked.
Sofia kept quiet. She didn't know how to tell him. She never knew that her father was smart. She knew he was a college professor teaching in University. But her father never shared any detail with her.
"I get good grades, and I am in the top of my class," Sofia replied.
Soon Toshiro begins to sigh relief.
"Good! You had me worried there. I was already thinking that I had to tutor you. Even help you with homework. But since you said that you get good grades, and top of the class. Then I don't need to worry. You really carry the Izumi's genius genes." He said.
As he begins to turn away starting walking toward the basement closing the door. Sofia stood there sweatdropping.
"Did I just lie to him? But I didn't want to break his feelings that I wasn't smart. Nor I doubt I got the genes to be that smart. Maybe I should have been honest." She thought.
She then begins to look toward the window. As she was looking to see something was moving in the trees. She wasn't even sure what it was. She then looked to see a picture on the ground. Which was a group of kids. When they were in middle school. She looked toward it. Where they were smiling everything else. She then saw the photo album. As she begins to turn the pages to see pictures of they were having fun together.
"Who are they?" Sofia thought.
As she continues to look through the photo album. She then saw pictures of children as well. As the curiosity was getting the best of her. She continues to flip through the album of seeing them together happy as well. Toshiro came back up the stairs. Sofia looked over her shoulder. Maybe Grandfather knows who they are.
"Grandfather, who are they?" Sofia asked.
As Toshiro walk overlooking toward the pictures.
"Nothing important. A past that should be forgotten. Where the bad memories lay on them." Toshiro replied.
Sofia wondered what did he mean by that. She then begins to look to see that there was something moving.
"Grandfather, there is something moving around the house." She stated.
Toshiro kept quiet, standing up his expression was more serious. He looked toward her.
"Stay here, and don't move." He said.
Toshiro, begin to head toward the outside. Sofia, begin to wonder what was going on. Toshiro, begin to walk back toward the house.
"What was that?" Sofia asked.
Toshiro looked toward her.
"Its nothing to worry about. Dinner is in the fridge. I don't really cook that much. I am going to be downstairs." Toshiro replied.
He begins to open the door. As he closed the door. Sofia begins to sigh looking toward the fridge.
"Something up. I don't even know why Grandma doesn't live here either." She thought.
