Disclaimer: I do not own One Piece but I really loved the characters in that anime.
Hello readers. Thank you to all those who reviewed and followed my story, I really appreciate it. I decided to post two quotes for today because I really like these two.
"Happy Birthday Zoro!"
I already finished writing this chapter before I post the previous chapter and I decided to post it today to greet Roronoa Zoro. Although this chapter has nothing to do about his birthday,ahaha. Thank you so much and enjoy reading.
Quote of the day:
"There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be..."
― John Lennon
"There are winds of destiny that blow when we least expect them. Sometimes they gust with the fury of a hurricane, sometimes they barely fan one's cheek. But the winds cannot be denied, bringing as they often do a future that is impossible to ignore."
― Nicholas Sparks, Message in a Bottle

Chapter 6: NAMI
It was a beautiful day, the sun shines brightly and the wind was blowing calmly. Vivi, Sanji and Luffy decided to visit Zoro. It had been more than a week since they last saw him and they are worried. When they reached his house they noticed that his car wasn't there, they knock on the door and Mihawk opened it.
Vivi: "Good morning Mr. Mihawk."
Mihawk: "Good morning. What a surprise. What can I do for you guys? Come in."
They all went inside and Mihawk lead them to the living room. He leaves them for a while and come back with a tray of coffee.
Luffy: "Hey Mihawk,do you have meat?"
Vivi: "Luffy!"
Mihawk: "It's okay Ms. Vivi, I already expect that from him. I already told our maid to cook, just wait a little longer."
Luffy: "Shishishishi. You are really kind Mihawk."
Mihawk just smiled at him then turned to Vivi and Sanji.
Mihawk: "So?"
Vivi: "We came here to visit Zoro."
Sanji: "Yeah, but we noticed that his car wasn't here, did he already go out of his room?"
Mihawk: "Actually, I didn't know where he is. I also noticed that so I checked his room. It was already neat when I came but he wasn't there. Some of his things were also not there."
Sanji: "So he really went out of his room, well that was good for him."
Luffy: "But where is Zoro?"
Luffy asked Vivi.
Vivi: "I don't know luffy, do you have any idea where'd he go Mr. Mihawk?
He shrugged his shoulder, Vivi just sighed with his answer. They all keep quiet having no words to say then Mihawk broke the silence.
Mihawk: " ,tsk.I guess I am really growing old. I am not sure but I think I know where he is."
They all turned to him.
Sanji: "Really? Where?"
Mihawk: "At the airport. I'm sorry I forgot and that bastard didn't even inform me before he go."
They are all shocked with what he said. They studied his expression to know if he is serious but there is no hint of lies in his face.
Sanji: "What? Why will he go there?"
Mihawk: "I remember that I gave him his passport and a plane ticket to Canada when I talked to him last evening and today is that flight."
Vivi: "Why did you do that?"
Mihawk: "Well I guess that will be a good idea, only Robin can make him fine again."
Vivi: "It wasn't!"
Vivi's voice was louder than usual which make the all turned to her. They can see the anger at her face and Sanji tried to calm her down.
Mhawk: "And why do think it wasn't a good idea?"
Vivi looked away and bit her lower lip.
"I'm sorry if I raised my voice sir, I think it's better if we call him to know if he already leave.", she bowed her head slightly, Mihawk nodded but his eyes never leave the blue-haired girl.
"I think that's a good idea Vivi-chan.", Sanji get his phone and dialed Zoro's number.
The surrounding was noisy, there are lots of people passing and rushing to their flight gate but he doesn't bother looking around his surrounding and he just settled himself on a vacant chair. He was busy looking at a locket; this locket was given to him by Vivi when she visited him a few days ago. The girl said that it was supposedly Robin's gift to him for their anniversary but she wasn't able to give. Along with it is a note that he had read repeatedly for many times.
'Happy Anniversary Zoro. I am so happy that we reached this far. I love you so much and I will never forget you. Please take care of yourself and remember that I always want you to be happy.'
Zoro sighs after reading the note then put it back inside his wallet. He opened the locket where his and Robin's picture are placed. He looks at her picture,
'Why do I have a feeling that you are hiding something to me? Why do I feel like you really plan on breaking up with me even if you didn't see me kissing Tashigi?", he speaks silently as if talking to her picture. His phone suddenly rings; he keeps the locket inside his wallet with the note and answered his phone.
Sanji: "Oi, marimo! Where are you?"
Zoro: "Why do you want to know?"
Sanji: "We are here at your house and your father said that you're going to Canada so…"
Zoro: "Yeah, that's right."
Sanji: "Why are you going there?"
Zoro: "I believe you know the answer to your question."
…Calling all the passengers of flight 125, please proceed to departure gate immediately.
Zoro: "I need to go curly-brow."
After speaking to him, he turned off his phone and started walking. After a few steps,
Thud…
He bumps with someone which makes him drop his belongings. He instantly faces the person who bumps him and speaks angrily.
"Are you blind? Don't you see that…", he was cut off by the loud voice of the person he collided with who happens to be a girl.
"NO! My beautiful dressss! What a mess!", the girl said while looking at her dress. He noticed that the girl was holding a cup of chocolate drink and it spilled onto her dress.
"You! It was your entire fault. Aren't you looking on your way?", the girl angrily shouts at him.
"Oi, don't blame me. You're the one who's not looking in the way. Besides, you shouldn't walk around a crowded place while holding that cup.", he answered her trying to control himself.
"So you're saying that it was my fault? How dare you? Do you know how much is the cost of this dress.", the girl is still shouting at him.
"I don't care, that's just a stain of chocolate. Move out of my way, I'll be late with my flight.", he said then picks up his passport and jacket. He turned around but he was stopped by the grip of the girl in his elbow. The girl looked sharply to him; her eyes narrowed then she smirks evilly. Zoro shivered by just looking at her, he feels a few sweat drops on his forehead.
"Oi, what's with that look?", he asked.
"Do you think you can go easily after what you did? Pay me, it costs 10,000 dollars. And pick up my things, try to be a gentlemen idiot!.", she commanded him while her one arm gripping on his wrist and the other was resting on her hips.
"Are you crazy? Why will I pay you and who are you calling idiot? Let go of me, evil witch", he finally shout at her then he break free from her grip and started to walk away.
"Come back here, moron. You have to pay for this mess.", she screams but he didn't stop walking, he just looks back at her and scowled..
"Yeah, think what you want. I hope not to see you again witch, bye", he said then waved his hand and he continued walking until he was out of her sight.
'What a rude idiot.' she muttered to herself then picks her belongings on the floor and walks away, she was really pissed off.
Zoro was now running, he had made a few wrong turns and he was running out of time, the gate will be close anytime soon. He reached the immigration officer and handed his passport for the departure stamp.
Officer: "Sir, I'm sorry but I think this is not yours."
"What are you saying? Of course, that was mine. Look at the name.", he get back his passport and opened it. His eyes grew wide, the name written in the passport was not his name, he slowly looks at the picture and his eyes grew wider.
"What the fuck?! ", he was very shocked to see the picture of the girl he had argued with before. He turned around and run fast as he could to where he first saw the girl. Luckily he reached the spot with some few turns but she wasn't there. He looked around hoping to see a girl with an orange hair but he sees no one. He went to the vacant chair he occupied before and sit on it. He brushed his hair using his hand, feeling hopeless.
"Ahh, that witch. I picked her passport instead of mine.", he said lowly. He opened the passport once more,
"so, the name of the witch is Nami.", he muttered. He then stands up and walks back outside the airport.
Back at Zoro's house…
After the phone hangs up, Sanji tried to contact him again but his phone was already off.
"He turned off his phone, I guess he's boarding now.", Sanji told them.
"I'm sorry for bothering you sir but we have to go. Thank I'm sorry again.", Vivi said respectfully, Mihawk just nodded to them and they walked outside.
They went straight at the thousand sunny where the others were currently hanging out. They somehow managed to stop Luffy from whining when they left Zoro's house without waiting for the meat. Their friends greeted them and they greeted them back. They told them what happened and what they learned when they went to Zoro's house.
Usopp: "We can't blame Zoro if he decided to follow Robin, we all know how much he loves her."
Kaya: "But Robin already broke up with him so he must respect her decision."
Vivi: "Yeah, Robin will not like this. "
Sanji lit her cigarette and blow the smoke thinking what they must do when Luffy suddenly spoke up.
Luffy: "Why are you guys so worried? So what if he followed Robin. It was Zoro we're talking about, he knows what's right. "
Everyone was surprised by what he said. They know that he has a point and they can't believe that Luffy can think such things in their situation.
Luffy: "And.."
All: "And?"
Luffy: "We haven't eaten yet, I am so hungry. Sanji prepared some meat!shishishishishi"
They all sighed with his answer but again he is right so Sanji starts preparing food and the others help him.
After preparing the food they all eat together, as usual Luffy was so loud and everyone was amazingly energetic. After they eat, they played cards and sing at the videoke. They entertained themselves for the whole day. It was already late in the evening when they decided to go home except for Luffy who had fallen asleep and Vivi who volunteered to clean the place. Sanji wants to help her but Zeff called and said that he was needed at Baratie.
After cleaning the place, she sits at the couch where Luffy was sleeping. She looked at her friend who looks like dreaming about meat and she smiled. She turned around when she heard that the door open.
"Zoro? Why are you here?",she was astounded to see Zoro standing at the doorway with his baggage.
Zoro didn't answer instead he walked to the mini bar and open a bottle of sake. Vivi followed him and sit beside him.
"If it wasn't traffic maybe I came here earlier and the others might still be here.", he said more to himself than Vivi.
"What happened to your flight?", Vivi asked him. Zoro looks at her and smiles sadly.
"Looks like even fate wouldn't allow me to see her again. Haha. Very funny", he said then gulps the bottle of sake.
"What do you mean?" she asked again.
"I bumped into someone, we dropped our things then we had an argument, and I didn't notice that I picked her passport instead of mine.", he summarized.
Vivi: "I see. So what's your plan?"
Zoro: "I don't know."
Vivi: "Don't you want to fulfill her last wish to you?"
Because of what she said, Zoro remembered the time Robin broke up with him and when she told him her last request.
"Let me go, learn to live without me and take care of yourself." , he unconsciously muttered what Robin said to him.
"Yeah, learn to live without her and take care of yourself Zoro. Don't disappoint her. I'm sure she wants you to be happy again.", Vivi said to him, Zoro just stared at the bottle of sake.
"Zoro, I think it's about time to accept everything and move on", she said which makes Zoro sigh.
"It's easy for you to say because you haven't been in love.", he said. Vivi looks at Luffy's direction then looks back at Zoro.
"You're wrong.", she said.
"Then, tell him before it was too late.", he said then gulped one more time emptying the bottle then he stands up. He went where Luffy was sleeping and sit, he closes his eyes and he slowly fell asleep. Vivi was left astounded; she didn't know that Zoro knew what she feels for Luffy.
She feels that her phone vibrates so she gets it immediately and answered the call.
Vivi: "Hello"
"Hey, I've been waiting for you the whole day. Where are you? I'm already here at your house.", the person on the other line said while giggling.
"Oh my God. NAMI! You're back. ", she screamed happily not even bothering if she awakens her two friends.
