Chapter 8: Searching

The day of my parents funeral I stood feet deep in snow, surround by people I didn't know. My brother Komui held onto my hand tightly, keeping them warm; I felt safe with his hand on mine. As the strangers greeted my brother and I, saying things like "sorry for your lost.", and "what a tragedy you kids have to face at such a young age." I hated it, and I knew brother hated it as well. I had never seen him have a fake smile till this day.

"Brother I have to use the bathroom." I whisper after pulling on his arm.

"Ok." Brother said about to walk towards the bathroom.

"I can go by myself." I whisper, and he look down at me with worry.

"Are you sure?" He asked.

"Yes." I smiled, sliding my hand from his.

"Be safe." He said watching me go before turning back to another person who was introducing themselves.

It was when I was walking back from the bathroom, when a lady with a to tight black dress on, and overly cover purple make up stop me.

"Don't you think it rude to were pink at funeral, then again the fruit never fall far from the tree." The lady said in a sour tone. "They must have really wanted to escape, I mean after one child almost grown another one pop out. I think there death was suicide." The woman stated.

My face became red and tears threaten to fall. Turning away from the mean woman, I ran. Away from the woman, away from the funeral.

I didn't stop running until I found myself in front of a angel laying in the snow. It hair was white, as was his skin. When I touched him his skin was cold.

Then his eyes open, a silver blue color looking up at me. "Mr. If you lay in the snow you'll get sick." I said.

"I don't care I only wish to die." The man said, and my heart pain. I wasn't going to let this man died I thought and stood up. I had goal. I didn't know I fell in love with him at first, but when I realize I had wait until I was older.

And every moment I was with him was like a breath of freash air...

...

"Miss! Miss!" A man called. Opening my eyes I yawned. "We arrived."the man said hopping off the back of the truck. Yawning again, I look up at the sky, before I hop off the truck.

"Thank you for the ride." I said sincerely bowing a little.

"No problem little Miss, and be careful... I hope you find what your looking for." The man said hopping into his truck and starting it up.

I wave as he drove away. Picking up my bag from the ground, I swung it onto my shoulder.

Pulling out the cash that Lavi gave me, I count how much I had left before I started walking.

It been a full month since I started searching for Allen, and I am still determined to find him no matter what.
