Chapter Eight: Zeo's Confession
Akita just stood there. I knew I had to get a moment with her. Just a minute or two to tell her the truth about what happened. To tell her how I felt. "I don't know what to say guys. Now that you mention it, the memories are sort of starting to come back now. Thanks so much!" Akita yelped with excitement.
"You're welcome." our small group says in unison. Akita just stood there and smiled some more. I was glad to see her so happy again. Now I just needed to speak with her. I just had to get the others away.
"Umm guys? Could Akita and I have a private conversation for a minute? Please?" I begged. I think they got the message on what I wanted to ask her and went away so Akita and I could have some peace. Finally. I can ask her. After all these years I can ask her what I have been wanting to ask her forever now.
I pulled Akita over to a small corner in the room. "So…what's up Akita?" I begin. Akita gets real serious. "The sky." she replies. I look at her confused. "Just kidding!" she laughs. Man, I haven't heard that sweet laugh in forever. I laugh along with her. "Right. Anyways, there has been something I have been wanting to say and ask you." I start while scratching the back of my head. "Okay. Go ahead." she answers. I take a deep breath. Okay. Here I go.
"What do you remember about the day you were forced into the arrangement machine?" I start by asking. She thinks and says; "I remember just big bulky meaty hands of Ziggurat's men pushing me in.
Then I remember laying down and the lid closing quickly locking me in. I was crying too. I think a boy was there, but I can't remember what the boy's name was." she answers in one breath. "Oh. Then you should probably know…" I couldn't say the truth to her face. It would hurt her so bad. She seemed to really like me. She maybe even had a crush on me. "What?" she asks with curious eyes. She could see the hurt in mine.
"You should know…that I…was the boy who stood there and watched. Then after I thought saving you was hopeless, I…I…walked away." I finally spit out. Akita looks at me shocked.
"What?" she simply says. I open my mouth to talk but she cuts me off. "You mean to tell me that you just left me there to suffer? Zeo, I could've died! Most people can't withstand the power of the machine! Oh my gosh! Everything is coming back to me now! Why did you do that? WHY?!" Akita demanded a answer. I couldn't speak. "I…I…" I start. "YOU WHAT? DIDN'T CARE? JUST THOUGHT I WAS WORTHLESS! MY FATHER DIED TWO MONTHS BEFORE! I THOUGHT ZIGGURAT COULD HELP EASE THE PAIN, BUT HE DIDN'T! ONLY YOU COULD DO THAT AND YOU JUST…JUST… WALKED AWAY! YOU TURNED YOUR BACK ON ME ZEO ABYSS!" Akita screamed. "I…I HATE YOU! AND I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!" Akita screamed.
She ran out with tears in her eyes. Now I was seriously alone.
Wow. What an intense chapter. PM and review! Thanks for reading!
