Innocence

This moment is perfect,
Please don't go away


The twin reached the gates of their home. Each one dashed inside, feeling excited about the sweet smell of chocolate coming from the kitchen, where a light brown haired woman wearing a simple yellow apron over a sleeveless white shirt and blue pants was cooking.

The kitchen door was too small for a two person who were trying to compact themselves together. But these two stubborn siblings still set themselves in a very sticky situation. They were trying to compete about the chocolate cake inside the oven.

"I'll g-get in... f-first..." Dyan said between grunts while pushing Dylan away, beside her.

"N-no! m-me f-first..." Dylan argued while pulling Dyan from the back of her coat.

The woman noticed the arguing twin at the doorway. She shook her head, sighing, she walked towards the twin. The two noticed a shadow then suddenly stopped the argument to look up. They saw a light brown haired woman with her green eyes staring at them and arms over her chest.

"Hi Mom!" the twin greeted in unison and grinned at the woman.

"Mom! I'm home!" Karasu sang inside their house while searching for his mother.

"What made you stayed late at school?" a red head woman approached behind Karasu with her blue eyes staring deeply at him.

It made Karasu sweat all over his face, feeling nervous about his mother, "I-I..." he stammered explaining.

"Your what?" she asked impatiently.

"Kallen! You're being strict towards my son again!" they heard a manly voice before Karasu finished explaining to his mother. They turned at the door and saw a chocolate brown haired man with his green eyes gleaming at them.

"Dad?"

"Suzaku?"

Both Kallen and Karasu exclaimed gleefully at him.

He grinned at them but face suddenly turned serious , looking at Kallen, "I know that you were just trying to be a good mother but don't get it the wrong way..." Suzaku said to his wife while giving her a hug, "He's sixteen now. And you just can't keep on telling him what to do." he explained then released Kallen from his arms turning to his smiling son.

Kallen sighed heavily, "Alright, alright. But aren't you two hungry?" she asked. The two rubbed their stomach as a response.

Dylan and Dyan was left alone in the kitchen eating the halves of cake only for them.

This moment was so silent until Dyan tried to break it.

"Brother? Do you know about something called Knightmare?" Dyan asked hesitatingly.

"Were you asking about my dream last night?" Dylan answered trying to mock his sister, then started chuckling.

"No!" Dyan exclaimed madly at him, "What I meant was K-N-I-G-H-T-M-A-R-E." she spelled the thing.

Dylan's eyes turned wide feeling familiar about the stuff and felt like something cold hit his spine cord.

Then a sound of broking glass was heard. They looked behind and also saw their mother shocked about what Dyan was asking for.

Father and son moment was happening inside a kitchen.

"So how was your first day in Ashford?" Suzaku asked a full mouthed Karasu.

Karasu almost choked the food in his mouth in the urgency to answer the question.

"Fine Dad, there's Dylan and Dyan..." he answered indicating sweetness over the name that was italicized.

Suzaku nodded, "Have you met any other friends except for them?" he asked again.

Karasu stared silently at him.

"What?" he asked while wiping his face thinking that it was the reason his son was staring differently at him.

"Nothing... nothing..." Karasu denied but it was obvious to his father that he was lying.

"Something bothering you? You know you can always tell me..." he urged the boy that he finally yielded.

Karasu looked down, "Do you know about..." he started, "A girl named C.C.?" he asked worriedly while looking up to him only to see a wide eyed Suzaku.

Then a sound of shattering glass was heard.

"WHAAAT?" Kallen screamed from the top of her lungs.

( I always really forgot what I have to say and forgive me please for being such an amnesia girl...
but it was only because I was either stressed in school, happy that I have updated, or sometimes nervous that you might not like what had just written in every chapter.
j-just review nicely, please. No worries I know how to accept criticism and I'm not expecting a compliment. I just want a nice way of saying a review... thanks) -Lillan Artemis
