What hurts the most
He ended everything. She tried to forget him. He regretted for leaving her. She cried for him. He saw her in a magazine. She avoided him. He waited for her acceptance. She loved him until now.

::.. Chapter IV: Will make you happy..::
"America…" Anna thought as she waited for a cab to stop.
She kept her stoic face and held on her bag when suddenly a tall old looking man stood beside her.
He wore a black suit and a red neck tie and a leather shoes on his feet. He then looked down beside him and smiled at the young blonde.
Anna looked up and said, "Take a picture, it'll last longer."
The old man managed to laugh, behind him, his assistant's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Master laughed!" thought the girl.
"What's so funny Mister?" Anna scowled at the man's antics.
"I like your attitude, Young Miss may I know your name?" he smiled at her.
"I'm Anna Kyoyama, an ita-"she stopped before she could reveal her true self.
"An Itako?" The old man smiled at her.
"Don't worry; I'm a shaman as well. Nice to meet you Anna." He stretched out his hand for her to shake.
"That's Miss Anna to you." She turned her head in annoyance.
The old man scratched his head and laughed again.
"My mistake Miss Anna. I'm Funa Mizato." He smiled at her again.
She turned her head towards him again and sighed.
"Do you know a place where I can stay Funa-san?" Anna asked.
"Oh! You can stay with me and my children." He said while his assistant went near him and whispered something.
"Miss Anna, would you kindly accompany me to my office? I need you to tag along with me and Saiko here." He introduced his assistant and she bowed to her.
"Nice to meet you Miss Anna." She smiled at her and nodded at her boss.
They stood there when a limousine stopped right in front of them. Then the chauffer went out of the limousine and opened the door for them and bowed.
"Nice to see you Mizato-sama." The chauffer greeted respectfully.
Funa only smiled and offered Anna a ride, which she said yes.
"After my meeting with France and Italy, I'll introduce you to my family," Funa took out two glasses of wine and poured some water.
Anna only nodded and rested her head one her hand as she looked outside the window. She only sighed and closed her eyes.
"I thought I heard Yoh somewhere here?" Anna said to herself as she walked past the bleachers of their soccer field.
"Must be my imagination." She continued walking when she heard giggles, but shrugged it off.
"Oh Yoh-kun…" she heard a moan inside the bleachers and stiffened.
"Mmmmhhh, oh Yoh-kun." She heard it again; she wasn't hallucinating or hearing things. She was curious, heart beating uncontrollably; she tiptoed to the bleachers and saw something she has never imagined.
There in front of her, her fiancée and her classmate touching each other. She couldn't move, she couldn't breathe, tears threatening to fall anytime soon, when she felt a poke behind her.
She turned around and saw Jeanne. Jeanne looked at her with worry in her eyes, then tears rolled down her cheeks and she ran away from the scene. Jeanne only ran after her but kept quiet in order for Yoh and Mizu not to hear them.
Anna stopped right after she turned a corner and bumped onto something.
She looked up as tears fell down continuously as she saw Lyserg in front of her and Jeanne behind her. Jeanne halted when she saw Anna fall down and kneeled down to comfort Anna in her arms.
Nothing was said, only muffles from Anna, Lyserg kneeled beside them and Jeanne looked at Anna as if she was a little girl.
"Let's pretend we didn't see anything Anna and maybe Yoh's just testing his love for you." Jeanne only patted Anna's back even though she was not sure if she's right, as Lyserg took off and bought water for them.
Anna only nodded in her arms and she hushed down. Lyserg arrived later on with 3 bottles of water, one each of them. Anna drank her water and hiccupped. Jeanne lent her handkerchief to Anna so that she could wipe off the tears that weren't meant for Anna.
They stood up then Jeanne and Lyserg brought Anna to her next room, where they saw Yoh, Manta and Trey talking about something and Ren obviously not interested in what they were talking about, but saw Anna with Jeanne and Lyserg. Ren almost fell off his chair when he saw dry tears on Anna's face.
"She saw them…" Ren thought then he turned to his right where he saw Yoh looking at Anna's tear-stained face. He was shocked when Yoh's face held a confused one but he shrugged it off and went back talking to his pals.
Ren wanted to strangle Yoh for being a buffoon to not notice how hurt Anna was.
Anna went to her sit in front and sat there quietly until their teacher arrived and gave them a test.
"Anna?"
"What is it?" Anna woke up from memory lane and turned her attention to Funa.
"I was worried when you did not answer after five calls." Funa held a worried face.
"Sorry Funa-san, I was reminiscing something that was supposed to be forgotten…" Anna replied.
"What would that be onee-chan?" A little boy who had light blond hair and baby blue eyes looked up to Anna.
"That would be nothing Kito." Anna smiled at the little boy in front of her.
Anna looked up to see Funa's face and his eldest son looking at her in worry.
"Don't worry Funa-san, I'm fine." Anna then looked up to the other one.
"You really sure Anna?" Funa's eldest son, who had dark blue hair and green eyes asked Anna.
"Yes Yuki, I'm positively okay." Anna smiled at them.
"Okay Anna if you say you're fine, then we're happy to know." Funa smiled at Anna.
It's been seven years since Anna came into their lives. Somehow the Mizato family broke through her ice-cold heart and made her smile. Even though she wasn't really part of their family, they still treated her as one. Since their mother, Yukino died when Kito was born they treated Anna as royalty, not really royalty but they treated her as their Sister and as for Kito, he treated her as his Mother, after Funa had explained to him that they weren't married and Anna's still young, the little lad had got it and started calling her sister as well.
"Anna, you'll be starting your world tour for your album and for your photo shoots. You would be starting at Japan. You'll be leaving this Monday." Funa said as he sat down on Anna's queen sized bed.
"Japan…" Anna repeated in a hushed tone but Funa heard this.
"I know you have some… issues there, but who knows, you'll be a big hit there as well considering you're already an international singing sensation and might I add a model." Funa patted the space beside him indicating for Anna to sit beside him.
Kito had already gone out of Anna's room to go play outside and as for Yuki he stayed with them.
"But I don't want to go back to Japan…" Anna said.
"If something happens there in Japan, I will call the agency and let you go earlier to the next country. Okay?" Funa smiled at her.
"Yeah, and if that Shaman King comes to you and hurt you again, don't worry, I'll come right away there and give him his own taste of medicine." Yuki pretended that Yoh's head was his left hand and he punched it with his right.
Anna looked at them and sighed, "Okay, If this would make you guys happy." She stood up and went outside as well to look for a quiet place.
"It would make us happy when you're happy to see him again Anna." Funa stood up and Yuki nodded in agreement.
