Way Back Home
Part 3
I've waited a hundred years.
But I'd wait a million more for you.
Nothing prepared me for
What the privilege of being yours would do.
After helping AGO, Red Eyes still hasn't recovered his memory back. He's afraid of what his past would be. Rancho said that he's like a professional assassin after training him for three months.
If I had only felt the warmth within your touch,
If I had only seen how you smile when you blush,
What if he's a real killer and someone wants to assassinate him, that's why Rancho and his men found him heavily injured because he survived?
Or how you curl your lip when you concentrate enough,
I would have known what I was living for all along.
What I've been living for.
Should he be glad that he lost his memory or should he wish he didn't survive after someone tried to kill him? But deep inside his heart, he was glad he was alive. He misses someone so much, but he doesn't know who she is or who they are.
Your love is my turning page,
Where only the sweetest words remain
What if the people he was missing was dead now because of him? No, he doesn't want to think of it. What would happen if his memory returned and found out that they are dead after all? What was he living for?
Every kiss is a cursive line,
Every touch is a redefining phrase.
If they were alive, what if something happened to them if he went back now that he was already part of the terrorists? No, he didn't want that. Just thinking about it was hurting his heart. It's like killing him again and again.
I surrender who I've been for who you are,
For nothing makes me stronger than your fragile heart.
He was afraid to know what would happen if he had a family before he came here. Should he look for his past? What if he really had a family and they were in danger and he couldn't save them because he was here and couldn't remember anything?
If I had only felt how it feels to be yours,
Well, I would have known what I've been living for all along.
What I've been living for.
He then looked at his fingers. There was a ring. He didn't take it off when taking a bath because he was afraid he'd lost it. He was sure it was a wedding ring as well. That's the evidence that he was a married man. The ring was purely gold. He looked inside it many times and the only thing that was written there was the initial NH&MS. Who're NH and MS and what does that stands for?
Though we're tethered to the story we must tell,
When I saw you, well, I knew we'd tell it well.
He then holds his neck and looks for something. It's like something was there before that he used to hold and is now missing.
With a whisper, we will tame the vicious seas.
Like a feather bringing kingdoms to their knees.
He then looked again at the starry night. The night sky was really beautiful when it was full of stars and the moon was full. He saw a shooting star, he didn't know why, but he closed his eyes then made a wish.
Meanwhile, back at the Hyuuga's manor, Tokyo, Japan…
Mikan's lying on the ground with her children in their garden. They are star gazing. Today is November 27, Natsume's birthday. They celebrated it again this afternoon without him.
"Mommy, that's daddy right, the brightest star in the universe?" A three year old girl said to her mother while pointing at the brightest star in the starry night sky. "He's watching over us right because he's in heaven?"
"That's right, darling." Mikan answered. But deep inside her, she couldn't accept the fact that he's already in heaven. She's still waiting for him. She knows he will still come back to them. He's not yet dead because he lives in her heart forever. Her heart is still hoping that he'd come back. A tear fell down from her cheeks while looking at the moon.
"Oi, pumpkin, don't let Mommy cry!" A three year old boy scolded her twin sister.
"Shut up you dork! I'm not making mommy cry!" The girl shouted at her twin brother.
"Stop fighting before mommy gets angry!" Namiko scolded her little brother and sister. But she knew Mikan would never get angry with them.
I've waited a hundred years.
But I'd wait a million more for you.
Nothing prepared me for
What the privilege of being yours would do.
Mikan's just listening to her children, even when they argued, it's sweet. They are very concerned about her. They don't want to see her cry. Every time she cried at night when she misses Natsume, all her children will hug her and comfort her and sometimes make her laugh so she doesn't cry again. She doesn't know how they caught her crying when her room was soundproof.
If I had only felt the warmth within your touch,
If I had only seen how you smile when you blush,
Or how you curl your lip when you concentrate enough,
I would have known what I was living for all along.
What I've been living for.
Mikan then looked at her hand where her wedding ring was located. Ever since Natsume disappeared, she didn't take that ring off her finger even when taking a bath. She was afraid that the ring will disappear or she will lose it.
Your love is my turning page,
Where only the sweetest words remain
Every kiss is a cursive line,
Every touch is a redefining phrase.
Minato is wearing Natsume's Alice stone necklace that was found from the warehouse, the color orange Alice stone. Her Alice stone that Natsume gave her is in Minako's neck, the color red. She let them wear it. Namiko didn't object about it, she loves it having her twin siblings wear those precious necklaces because those two haven't seen their father since birth. But she lives with her father long enough to remember his face.
I surrender who I've been for who you are,
For nothing makes me stronger than your fragile heart.
If I had only felt how it feels to be yours,
Well, I would have known what I've been living for all along.
What I've been living for.
For even once, Mikan didn't think that Natsume's dead. If he's dead, where was their wedding ring? They look for Natsume for three months, but didn't find him. Instead of losing hope, it gives her courage to believe that he was still alive even after four years. It's been four years, but he hasn't come home.
Though we're tethered to the story we must tell,
When I saw you, well, I knew we'd tell it well.
With a whisper, we will tame the vicious seas.
Like a feather bringing kingdoms to their knees.
'What happen to you Natsume? Where are you? Please come home now. I missed you so much. You should know that you have more children now. They are waiting for you. They wanted to see you as much as I do. You should know about Minato and Minako. They looked exactly like you. They are really cute and very smart unlike me…' Mikan thought.
"Mom… it's getting cold here, maybe we should get inside now before the little ones catch a cold." Namiko said while looking at her mom. Mikan nodded and followed.
"Have you already packed for our trip this weekend?" Mikan asked her first daughter.
"Yeah… Finished already! I'm so excited Mom! Should I pack for Minato-chan and Minako-chan, mom?" Namiko answered and asked her Mom.
"Nah… I'll do it later. Just leave it to me, okay?" Mikan said.
"Yes, Mom." She answered.
Red Eyes decided to get back to his cottage. As he entered, he was shocked to see Pia lying on his bed almost naked. Pia's only in her mid twenties like Chatur while he thinks that he's already in his mid thirties, but he doesn't look like one. He looks like he's just in his thirties. Speaking of age, he really doesn't know how old he is. He hasn't recovered his memories yet.
This is not the first time she entered into his room without permission. She's trying hard to seduce him. As he walks towards the bed to let her go back to her own room, she grabbed him in his arms making him stumbled above her. He's not shocked anymore. She always did something like this. She kissed him like what she always does.
This is one of the reasons why Chatur hated him so much. Pia and Chatur are childhood friends, and Chatur likes her so much because she's really beautiful. But Pia likes Red Eyes when he joined the group three years ago. So she did all she could do to make him hers. Pia's a daughter of a terrorist couple who's working under Rancho.
As she was kissing him on the lips, he never responded to it. She's making him feel hot by touching his lower body and trying to take off his pants. Even though his mind was telling him not to do so, his body ignored him. He touched her upper body and kissed her neck. He was about to kiss her on the lips back when a woman's face popped out in his mind.
He stopped and became furious. He clenched his fists on the bed sheet. They didn't notice that the fire in the lamp went big enough not to reach the ceiling.
Red Eyes took a deep breath. After calming himself down, he slides his body beside her. The fire went back to its original state. Pia groaned disappointedly. She touches his lips slowly down to his chest, but Red Eyes caught her fingers and stopped her. She tried to seduce him again, but she failed.
"You should go back to your own room before Chatur finds out that you sneaked here again." He simply said.
"So what? He's not my boyfriend or something. He's just my childhood friend. I like you better than him Red Eyes." Pia replied.
"Get out now before I throw you out in that state." He said annoyed. Pia's still naked. She knew that he was serious. He's gonna throw her out naked so she started to put on her clothes and went out.
"See you tomorrow Red Eyes." She seductively said.
Red Eyes stared at the ceiling. They always ended that far whenever Pia seduces him. Never once he kissed Pia on the lips except when she kissed him first. He never responded to any of her kisses. He never once had a sex intercourse with her or any of the girls in town where they went to. It's always in that part when he kissed them back in the neck and some touch in their bodies.
He's sure that he's not a gay. It's just that when he was about to kiss them on the lips, a certain lady always appears in his mind. And after that, he can't take to kiss other girls. He'll become furious with himself for tempting to kiss other girls. That's what he always felt. Why? He doesn't know her anyway. Who is she in his life? Why can't he kiss other girls?
He looked at the fire. It's like the fire's inviting him to come near it. He tried to reach it with his hand without moving out of the bed and has no intention of reaching it at all. His eyes widen when a fireball went out of his hand. He immediately stood up and put out the fire. And eventually, it was gone before he puts water into it. He was shocked to find out that his hand's not seriously hurt at all.
Is that an illusion? I should sleep now. I'm just imagining things again.
Before going to bed, he made sure that his door was properly locked.
To be continued. . .
Please leave a review… I will really appreciate it if you do…
PS: Rancho, Farhan, Rajuh, Chatur & Pia belong to the movie "3 Idiots". I can't generate any Indian names so I borrowed theirs.
