Chapter 3: Kyouko, Kyoto?
Kyouko-chan,
How are you? It's your birthday again today isn't it? I'm sorry I couldn't be there to celebrate with you…I hope this present would serve as a good enough substitution. Oh and if you are good and happy enough, at the end of this letter you'll be able to notice a new ability I've learned. Happy Birthday Kyouko dear…
With love,
Corn
Prince of the Fairies
Dearest Corn,
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for remembering! And your letter is so sparkly! Is that the new ability you learned? How to make sparklies appear? They're so beautiful Corn! Just like you! Corn, you are so talented. The Great Fairy King and Queen must be so proud of you. I know I am. J
My birthday was great. At least I had my Prince Sho to play with. Although he started acting slightly different after seeing your present. I wonder why that is. Maybe he wished he had a Fairy Prince as a friend too...or perhaps a Fairy Princess…hmm.
Oh dear! Gomen-nasai your highness…I forgot to thank you for the present. GomenGomenGomen. *blushes* Arigatou-gozaimas Fairy Prince Corn for the beautiful charm bracelet…I really love the charm…it reminds me of you.
When will you be back to Kyoto? I miss you…
Love,
Kyouko
Kyouko-chan,
I'm glad you enjoyed your birthday. Did your Prince Sho give you anything special for your birthday? I really hope he did since he should make you extra happy on your special day. Though my present was definitely much better, right Kyouko? Hehe just joking Kyouko-chan…
I can't be sure when I can return to see you again. Father and Mother have been extremely busy. They have also started to expose me more to their respective courts. I never realized just how much work they had to do! Anyway, I can't promise you anything but if I ever do get a chance to visit…I'll definitely let you know…
Don't be sad Kyouko-chan. Remember that you still have the magic stone I gave you. Whenever you are sad, let it take away your sadness & leave you smiling ok? I gotta stop here for now, Father is looking for me. Till next time my dear Kyouko-chan.
Love,
Fairy Prince Corn
"Kuon! Kuon!"
Said boy looked up from the letter he was folding and turned towards his bedroom doorway to see his father leaning against the doorframe.
"Yes father? You called for me?" he enquired.
"Yup! And I've been trying to get your attention for the last…oh maybe around 5 minutes or so. What grabbed your attention so much there son? Writing a love letter huh?" chuckled Kuu Hizuri.
"No father, sorry to disappoint but it's not a love letter. I'm still too young for such things." Kuon gave his father an exasperated look. Kuu Hizuri had totally ignored his son in favor of dreaming up the wonderful wedding party that he would have for his one and only beloved son.
As if it was a normal occurrence, Kuon pulled out a large needle from his desk drawer. Climbing onto his chair he stretched out to burst the dream bubble that was growing bigger with each passing second. With an audible 'pop!', and a resigned sigh, his father slowly floated back 'down to earth'.
Ignoring the sad puppy-dog eyes his father was giving him, Kuon once again tried to find out what it was that his father had came up to find him for.
"Oh about that… I came to tell you that we, the Hizuri family have been invited to travel overseas to discuss a possible business venture. Pack for around 4 days worth of clothes son. If we extend, we could always buy the clothes that they sell in Kyoto." With the news delivered, Kuu Hizuri left his son's room, leaving a pleasantly stunned Kuon.
AN: It's been such a long hiatus…and I'm not exactly happy with this chapter. Oh well…anyway, Kuon's 11 here…and the one in my head has abandoned me to play with Kyouko… L
