I woke the next mourning, to the rays of sun coming through the window, I must have forgotten to Close the curtains. I smelled the wafting scent of eggs coming from the kitchen, I looked to see papa making eggs for the kids. They ate silently before I walked over.
" Mummy!" The exclaimed well Dakota did even if his very loud. I kissed Dakota on the cheek and he blanched and tried to wipe it away, while Lola excepted a kiss.
" Oh Maka" said spirit " I already applied for the best school in death city for them the exception should come soon"
" how did you do that?" I asked but he smirked mysteriously so I guessed he snuck in.
" Great more school" said Dakota pushing his food away, while Lola didn't look to happy.
" You'll have fun I promise" I promised, they didn't answer. " Ill tell you what I will look into a dance school for you Dakota hoes that sound?" I asked trying to cheer him up.
" I guess" he mumbled
" look we will go right now then"
" really!" I nodded. Then the next thing I know I see him in his room, then he pecked from the hallway and called for Lola to hurry.
" quite the characters" said papa smiling there way " JUST LIKE THERE MAMA!"
" MAKA CHOP" and I pulled a book and smashed it in his head for good measure.
"maka" said spirit " is soul going to meet them" he asked carefully afraid to ask a bad question.
maka thought and she wasn't really keen on the idea of her cheating ex seeing her kids. Even if they was his too. She wanted to see him wanted to kiss him, his soft gentle lips forced against her own Ina embrace of him but she new it wouldn't happen. Because there was a dark hole that drained it away.
" I don't know"
and that was a lie she did, but she didn't. She wants to live happy with soul, but for some reason it seemed sick and made her weak, and she promised. A he had had debates with her, and whenever she did she could never fall asleep. I guess I ain't sleeping tonight she thought.
...
" Come on Soul it might do you good" coaxed Tsubaki.
" Come on she's right man get out" said Blackstar.
" GIRRAFFEE" was all patty did.
honestly he was starting to like patty more, because she was the only one trying not to force them. They asked him, more like forcing him to go to a milk bar, or in anyway in his mind it looked like forcing, there been hanging on him like a sky scraper.
" okay" soul was ready to give up, they barged in, well Blackstar did while he was asleep and he was tired he might as well get it over and done with " but I won't enjoy it"
They exclaimed in happiness. But Soul didn't they walked out all in a chatter, while Soul walked behind them like a loose duck. He caught glances of them checking to see he hasn't run away, it annoyed him he wasn't a child anymore, he just wanted to see his own. And at that he felt a stab in his heart.
He watched the clouds in the sky, wondering if he could find a clue to see if he can fin his kids, or another thread of hope that maybe there here now. And maybe he can find his green eyed girl.
...
" so he's in?" I asked
" definitely" the woman said.
" Thanks"
" no problem"
right now where at death art. You see it's an academy for dancers, artists, musicians ETC; Dakota loves dancing. I think he just loves creating things, I wouldn't be surprised if he invented a new technics, or house. He was jumping for joy to think he got into the best school around.
" how about you dal" I asked Lola lowering my nosy so my face was level " do you want to do a anything"
lola looked round I think, because she walked over to all the posters, with lazy curious eyes. I think I saw her eyes light up, but to no avail nothing happened, she just stared for a while not moving then she walked away, to stand beside Dakota as if walking way from a bad conversation.
" Lola" but she didn't answer.
" thanks I said to the lady and we walked out.
Lola has secrets I know and I will respect the privacy I just don't understand what's wrong. We didn't take the car to see spirit, we just walked around till we decided to stop for lunch.
...
Soon we came to a restaurant it seemed nice and perky, and I smelled fish and, Drooled slightly, but still felt to depressed to eat. We sat down and I felt blank, like a fish watching everyone or staeing at nothing, with only three second memory I just felt wrong.
" So what do you want soul?" Asked Kidd.
" Nothing thanks" I said politely and went back to my empty void.
...
Tsubaki's pov;
i watched soul go to his own little world. I felt sorry for him, but I was his fault but that doesn't change the fact his depressed, he looks like a guy who came of the streets not wearing his jacket or anything, he looked his soul was gone, but I think he made it clear his heart is anyway.
" Tsubaki" asked liz.
" Oh a banana milkshake please" I was polite.
no one was talking to me so I looked out the window. When I did everything looked normal, people walking around there daily lives. But then I saw a woman in a yellow dress, with her hair in pigtail, her hair was long and she had two kids strolling next to her, and her green eyes confirmed my suspicion.
it was Maka.
i was so excited I felt like running over to her. But overused by excitement I got out out my chair and yelled i need arid. And went to meet her. I was so happy to see her it's been four years since she left, and it's been quite different too.
I leaped and hugged her I didn't catches her expression but I remember it being genuine when I pulled away I saw worry I admit I felt slightly hurt but this is Maka it's alright. She grabbed my hands and I saw too kids peeping behind her dress. Dakota and Lola. I bent down to greet them.
" Why hello, I'm Tsubaki are you Lola and Dakota" they only sunk father behind Maka I looked up for help, she shrugged.
" Hi Tsubaki it's nice to see you"
" and you too Maka"
" is soul here"
i wasn't sure what to say, I mean I want them to be together and work it out but, they have an ugly history. And I don't want to meddle, that's usually liz' thing, so decided to be honest because lying would only make it worse I nodded, a wash of dread past her face like she found out her kids died.
" Has he seen me!" She asked frantically I shook my head
"I don't think so"
" alright let's get- where"
she looked around but her kids were gone. I turned my head to the dinner and I saw them sitting on the table in front if of soul.
...
Maka's pov;
i saw my kids sitting there so innocently and panic filled my body like a flame, and I felt so afraid. What If he saw them? Will he take them away? Will he be mad? How will I explain? I had no time to think, I had to get them out. But what if they want to meet him? It's there choice?
" I was never here Tsubaki I will see you soon just act natural" I said and flew past her to go find them.
i rushed in and sat in front of them, and I knew soul could see me, but he hasn't noticed so I took the time to scan him. He looked to the window the sun illuminating his features, making him looking like angel falling from heaven. But he looked so sad, no words to describe it just sad.
" Mum" lola called to me and I looked at her.
my beautiful kids that look and remind me so much of me and soul, so innocent and so cute, a whole life to explore, and a future being drafted form there child hood. It's up to the it's there life and I need to do what's best for them, despite how much it will hurt me, I think Tsubaki gave me a sympathetic look.
" Kids I need to talk to you about something" I said forcing the words out, painfully like rotten egg on my tongue.
" What is it?" Lola tiny voice asked.
" I was wondering do you want to meet your father?" I forced it out and closed my eyes.
i stapled my eyes shut as hard as I can, and I thought I would cry I dint want to look but I didn't know why. He hurt me that badly I want to be with him but I can't because of the pain, bittersweet love this is, and they... Were in the middle and it wasn't fair still holding my eyes shut I said.
" It's up to you"
my voice was full of pain and I couldn't stop it,I could only wait in anguish. The silence was painful and I opened my eye, and I was met with the dinner plates of there own eyes so similar to souls and I.
" I'm okay if Dakota wants to" said Lola. She seemed happy and I was happy I made a good choice to ask permission, a song of pride served my body, and I waited for Dakotas answer.
" Yeah I would love it when?"
i felt it plummet my hope, but I felt a star rise behind my eyes, and I even heard my self laugh. It sounded bitter and robotic so I closed, my eyes gentle and said.
" Then let's go grab my hand" I stood up as they trotted of the seat and grabbed one hand each and I made my way to soul
...
SOULS POV;
tsubaki came back like she saw a ghost, and she smiled awkwardly, but everyone let it go. She might not be feeling well it's tsubaki. So I just stared at the table while everyone chatted, I looked like a Kidd who didn't want to be here I know, but what could I do I gave up years ago.
after a while my vision was blank, and I'm stared at a vision of white, the cloth sent comfort some how and it annoyed me. I didn't wasn't ti feel comfort I wanted Maka's comfort once and for all, but dreams don't come true. Then the chatter at the table stopped at first I just kept my head slumped till I heard.
" Maka"
my head shot up, and I searched for a image if her. Then my eye landed on her. She had a yellow dress, that suited her ski. And hair, and made her forest green eys stick out more. She forced a tiny smile and looked at me I don't know what I saw in her eyes but all I could think was her.
i got up and pulled her into a hug, an embrace and I whispered her name. For once it seemed like her and me, and no one else but us. I don't know what the surrounding looked like anymore but I had an image of her and me, she didn't fight but she stiffened then relaxed, and is felt my inner self jump for joy. She wasn't fighting then I heard..
"dad" a young boys voice said.
i held onto Maka still as I searched for the source of the voice I looked down to see a girl and a boy standing next to each other. The girl was pale with red ruby eyes, and blonde hair she wore a purple dress much like her mothers. And the boy was tanned with a bandaid on his right cheek, with forest eyes and snowy white hair, he wore little. Red jeans and a orange top.
he looked cool.
and I already new it was Dakota and Lola.
