Unspoken Promises
by: silentghost258
Chapter 4
The ride to the house took forever. Seconds felt like minutes and minutes felt like hours. Neither of them even bothered to speak. Yuna was deep in her thoughts wondering where the heck is that house located, just as she was about to fall asleep she noticed the change in the scenery.
"Wow! This one's too far from the city. Definitely the elite type!" Yuna thought while admiring the scenery. It looks so serene, so quiet, like a paradise she thought.
"Ah, dad… are we somewhat near the house?" Yuna at last broke the silence but she didn't take her eyes away from the view.
"Yes dear, as a matter of fact, were here. This is just the garden entrance, there's the main entrance which leads to the house." Braska said while pointing at the huge gate.
"Damn rich bastards!" Yuna whispered but loud enough for Braska to hear.
"What?"
"Nothing!" Yuna immediately responded.
"Hmm, anyway, it's not much dear. He agreed to guide you through the school premises and he also agreed to give you a ride home." At the same time the car stopped. "Ok here we are. Now honey, be on your best behavior, got it?"
Yuna nodded.
"Take care then dear. Bye"
"You too dad, bye" and with that he drove off.
Sighing, Yuna was having doubts whether she will push the doorbell or not. Finally giving in to his fathers plans AND demands…
DING DONG – DING DONG
"May I ask who this is?" a female voice can be heard through the speaker.
"Oh, it's me Yuna, the daughter of Braska. I believe he has scheduled me to meet the young master of this house."
"Oh! We've been expecting you Lady Yuna. Please wait a minute."
TANG!
The gate opened automatically. There stood a woman in her thirties. She looks… well to make it short clean. Her hair is put in a tight bun. You can see her youthness fading and replaced by wrinkles. She wore a black sleeved dress with a ribbon on her waist, and it's tied at her back. The thing that caught Yuna's attention the most is her eyes. If you look at it closely you can see that it's filled with sorrow and pain but there's a tint of happiness in a way or another.
"Welcome Lady Yuna!"
"Thank you" was all she could say because she's dumbfounded at the sight of the house, I mean mansion.
The woman noticed Yuna's jaws drop at the sight of the mansion and she can't help but giggle.
"Pardon?" Yuna was awaken at her trance when she heard a soft giggle.
"Oh! Sorry my Lady. I just remembered the first time I saw this house. I had the same reaction like yours." The woman said while bowing.
Yuna giggled at the thought of what she looked like when she saw the mansion. "Yeah! I mean, look at that house!" Yuna then gave a whistle.
"Anyway Lady Yuna, we best be on our way now. The master's waiting for you." The woman said while gesturing Yuna to go first.
The house was far away from the gate. You can see a path provided for the visitors. The path was surrounded by different varieties of flowers, at the middle of the garden, you can see a huge fountain, the fountain has a circle shape and it is surrounded by well trimmed grass and at the middle of the fountain there stood a flower vase filled with rare black roses. The house was really elegant. You can see the design was carefully built. The style of the house was more like based on the building structures of the early Greek time.
"Here we are."
"Whew! That's a long walk!" Yuna said breathing hard and regaining her strength.
"I'm sorry my Lady but I forgot to tell you that the cart was taken to a repair shop and-"
"No! No! That's ok! Besides I really need a workout right now." Yuna immediately cut her off. "Well then may I ask your name?"
"M-my name?" the woman stuttered.
"Yes, even a dog has a name," Yuna giggled "Don't worry! I just want to thank you properly for guiding me."
Yuna noticed sorrow and pain slowly forming in her eyes.
"Ahm, it's ok! If you don't want to tell-"
"It's Katherine, my name is Katherine but you can call me Kath." She said. Yuna glanced at her eyes; the sorrow was replaced by somewhat happiness.
"Well then… Thank you Kath."
Kath gave a bow and was about to leave.
"Uhm, you're not going in?" Yuna asked baffled at her actions.
"No my Lady, we have a different house entrance."
"Oh." Yuna said disappointed.
"No worries my Lady the master is very nice." Again she bowed.
"Thanks again, oh! And Kath, you can call me Yuna."
Kath gave a huge smile then bowed. "You're welcome and also thank you… Yuna." She bowed for the last time and Yuna watched her retreating back.
Yuna groaned and gave a huge sigh. Hoping for the best. She stared at the door in front of her for what seems like hours.
"Well, here goes nothing…" Yuna pushed the doorbell and no one answered.
After pushing, I mean hitting the button several times, again there's no answer. Just as she was about to leave.
"Coming!" she heard a voice struggling his way through the door.
Yuna again gave a huge sigh.
"Who is-"the man stopped mid-air and stared at Yuna. Also the same, she stared back at him. She remembers this man… That hair and those eyes.
"I told you were sick and tired of girls like you. I don't know what kind of excuse you've used with Kath but you're not fooling us!" Then he slammed the door in her face.
Yuna beginning to get back to her senses knocked on the door instead of using the doorbell.
"Yes?! "Again the man stopped in midair and continued. "I thought I told you not to bother us anymore?! Man! You sure are annoying!!" Tidus again slammed the door.
Yuna was now furious at this, knocking at the door pretty hard, the door was again answered but this time…
"LOOK! IM NOT ANY FANGIRL OR A SLUT LIKE YOU THOUGHT! IM HERE BECAUSE MY DAD ASKED ME TO, AND IF YOU THINK THAT IM GONNA PUT UP WITH YOUR ATTITUDE THEN YOU'RE WRONG! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?! ARE YOU ALL THAT HIGH AND MIGHTY?! SLAMMING THE DOOR TWICE IN MY FACE?! YOU! YOU ROYAL JERK SCUMBAG STUPID IDIOT!!!!" Yuna let all the steam go out of her. Hey! She's really furious at that guy.
"Hmmm, for the daughter of Braska you sure have a colorful dictionary." This time a different man answered her.
Opening her eyes, "Eh?!" Yuna was shocked to find a different person standing there. The man has also the same hair color but his skin color is somewhat different. His hair was put up, with of course the use of a gel, and an eye patch covering his other eye. He seems much taller than the other one. "I'm sorry about that but that stupid son of Lord Jack pissed me off by slamming the door twice. I'm sorry about that."
"But I'm the son of Lord Jack. Gippal at your service." He said smiling devilishly while bowing.
"WHAT?!" Yuna was shocked to hear this. "The- then who's the other man who answered the door earlier?"
"Oh that? That was Tidus, son of Lord Jecht."
Yuna's face was turning on different shades of red at hearing this. "What have I done?!"
"Hey Gip! Who's on the—" Tidus again stopped then "I told you, were not interested in any of your games! Get outta here!" Tidus was now yelling at Yuna.
At the sight of Tidus…
"WHY YOU! YOU'RE NOT EVEN THE OWNER OF THIS HOUSE. HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO ME LIKE THAT?!DON'T YOU KNOW HOW TO TREAT A GUEST?! WHY'D YOU HAVE TO SLAM THE DOOR! DO YOU EVEN HAVE A HUMAN BRAIN!!!!! ARE YOU A MANIAC?!!!!!" This time Yuna was sure that it was directed at Tidus.
When Tidus heard her voice…
"Hey! You're that ungrateful bitch!"
"WH-what?!" Yuna was taken aback at his, ahmm, term. "Well look who's here?! It's jellyfish head!"
"Why you-"Tidus was suddenly cut off.
"Ooook! So now I know that you guys have met before. Oooh! As much as I'd like to video tape this whole scene I'm afraid that for now I have to interfere." Gippal at last took a step between Yuna and Tidus.
"Tidus, this is Yuna. She's the daughter of Braska." Gippal said while making introductory hand gestures "And Yuna, this one here is my buddy, Tidus. The son of Lord Jecht."
"WHAT?!" They both yelled at the same time.
"You tell me this is Braska's daughter?! Braska?! The one with the strict rules and law and everything?! The founder of the Zanarkand museum known all over the world and the co-owner of Zanarkand Mall?! That Braska?!"
"You tell me this is Lord Jecht's son?! The one who owns the famous Zanluca financial group?! And my dad's co-owner of the Zanarkand Mall?!" The both of them were shocked at this.
"Yes and yes…" Gippal answered. "By the way I'm Lord Jack's son, the owner of the world famous five star hotel and restaurant Djose and also the owner of the world known fashion house in Zanarkand if anyone of you bothers to know." Gippal said laughing hard at the scenario.
"Gip! You're kidding right?! Right?!" Tidus can't believe at what Gippal just said about Yuna being the daughter of Braska.
"Sorry to burst your only bubble of hope but she really is the daughter of Braska." Gippal said to Tidus leaving him dumbfounded. "Come inside Yuna and don't mind him, it's his nature to go around and scream at people." Gippal said while directing Yuna to take a seat.
"Hmm, what's wrong with Tidus?! After what I've said about him going around screaming at anyone I swear he already beat my ass out." Gippal thought, his face forming a huge grin.
Yuna just kept glaring at Tidus. "Look at him! He looks like and idiot! Is it that unbelievable that I'm the daughter of Braska? You're case is much worse than mine! I can't believe that you are the son of Lord Jecht, especially with that foul temper of yours!" Yuna thought clenching her fist.
"You must be tired, here have something to drink" Gippal disturbed the mini theater in Yuna's head on how she will beat the hell out of Tidus.
"Thank you, I really need that."
"Pft! You should at least thank me for saving your life but nooo and you're thanking for a glass of water?! What's that?!" Tidus at last regained his composure.
At hearing this, Yuna slammed the glass at the table then she shot up.
"What the hell is your problem?! I'm fine right there and then but nooo, you just have to come and interfere!"
"I came because I heard you screaming! Shit! What's wrong with helping people nowadays?! You should've at least thanked me!" Tidus also got up and answered Yuna back.
"Why should I listen to a jellyfish head?!"
"Why you!"
Gippal swore that he saw a vein popped at Tidus' head.
"Oook! Tidus I need to talk to you." Gippal dragged Tidus all the way upstairs. You can see Tidus giving all he's got just to break away from Gippal's grasp.
SLAM!
"What the heck's wrong with you? That's the daughter of Braska, THE Braska! Now spill! How and when did you meet?!" Gippal asked with a little anger in his tone.
Tidus murmured a thousand curses at Gippal for interfering him and at Yuna.
"ANSWER ME!" Gippal was now angry, slamming his hands at the table.
"Remember when I told you that I was gonna meet Wakka because I've got something important to say to him about the blitz tryouts?" Gippal nodded. "Well, Lulu called Wakka and they began arguing as usual and he left me there so he can explain things to Lulu, with nothing to do I decided to come home early-""are you drunk at that time?" Gippal cut him off. "A little bit, anyways, when I exited the bar I heard someone screaming for help, with the influence of alcohol, I rushed through that alley and helped her and she slapped me! HARD!" Tidus at last finished his story like a good little puppy.
"Hmmm…" Gippal was now thinking of a way for those two to get together. "argh! This is frustrating! You go apologize to her right now!"
"Why me?!" Tidus sounded like a little child.
"Just do it!" Gippal commanded him. "Oh! And be gentle! I know you and you know that you have a foul temper… control it this time! For Pete's sake! She's a she! OK?!"
"HMP!"
They slowly made their way through the guest area only to find Yuna………
