CHAPTER 9: WHEN THE MASKS ARE OFF.
Down in the living room only Kyo knew what was really up, he had to explain what was really under their parents masks. So he went and called Haku , he also had to make their father busy and take his attention off their mother so they coould make it in time. He went up to Haku's bedroom and got in quietly.
-Haku I need to talk to you, it's emergency.
-Coming, he said kissing Chihiro's cheek. Be careful, he whispered to her.
They made it to the living room, but Haku's was still on Chihiro and wanted to make sure she was OK, that's why he did one of his biggest mistakes ever.
-Dad can you please go and check on Chihiro, he asked. Kyo's and Hanabi's blood froze, every single drop of colour left their faces, when their father was out of sight they finally talked.
-Haku, my son, do you understand what you just did?
-What would you had prefered to send you and hurt Chihiro?
-Haku she's right this very moment Chihiro's in a very great danger to be-
-To be what?
-To be..
-WHAT?
-To be rapped, Hanabi finally said.
-WH-WHAT?!
~~~~~~~UPSTAIRS IN THE BEDROOM~~~~~~~~~
''I always knew that Haku was a good son, but I didn't expect him to be at this rate. Anyway I'll thank him later.'' That were Kaze's thoughts as he entered the room and saw the sleeping Chihiro. ''Dinner is servwhed'' he thought and sat on the bed and started kissing her face so she would wake up. The same time he tried to take off her T-shirt and then went for the bra. Chihiro opened slowly her eyes.
-Haku, she whispered.
-Close enough, but no. He whispered in a husky voice.
-What the-, Chihiro said and her eyes opened wide open. She saw what was happening and run from the bed, just the moment before he undid her bra, she quickly wore her T-shirt.
-What the fuck is up? She asked running to the door.
-A pretty shy one, huh?
He got near her in no seconds, grabbed her wrists , pushed her on the wall and started kissing her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Meanwhile~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Haku remeber whatever happens don't give attention to whatever he's doing OK?
-Yeah, whatever, he said rushing to his bedroom.
-Kohaku, be emotionless, we must not give ourselves in no matter what, it's for the best of your wife and daughter.
Haku couldn't think of anything, who knows what that bastard was doing to Chihiro right now, he had to go in there immediatelly.
Kyo opened the door slowly.
-Excuse me father, but we didn't inform you that Chihiro-chan over there is not prepared for this, so please give us some time to prepare her.
-So, that's why she denied me. Well you little doll, I'll give some time to get prepared for the best day of your life, he said smirking.
Chihiro felt disgusted. What the fucking hell was happening, but mostly where Haku was? She didn't expect Kyo to say such a thing. From all the confusion and traumatic experience she had hot tears started falling down her cheeks. Less than a minute later Haku entered the room where he saw Chihiro hugging her knees crying.
-Haku, she whispered .
-Chihiro did he do anything to you ?
-No I got away, she said sobbing and then grabbed tightly on Haku not wanting to be alone anymore.
-Thank God you're OK.
-Haku you must leave. Take mother and Hikari with you and go somewhere where he can't find you.
-And what about you nii-san?
-I'll be OK, I'm going to do it, it's finally time.
-Are you sure darling?
-Yes mother we've had enough! Now leave before it's too late!
-O-Okay.
-Mother could you please do them for me?
-Yes of course. She said leaving the room.
Haku hugged tightly Chihiro.
-You're sure you're Ok?
-Wakarai(= I don't know).
Hot tears would not stop running down her more pink than usually cheeks. Her eyes were red and she, she was frightened.
Haku was finding this whole scene very frustrating, yet he was not able to do anything about it now.
-Please calm down Chihiro don't cry anymore. Now, now there is nothing to be afraid of, I will always be next to you, no matter what. That was mostly a promise to himself, he was never ever going to let anyone or anyhing lay a single hand on her ever again. Haku felt her hug loosen and Chihiro collapsed on his hands.
-Chihiro?
The same moment Habi entered the room with a still sleeping Hikari on her hands.
-Let's get going. Hanabi said taking Haku's hand, transporting them outside Zeniba's house.
~~~~~~~~~~ AFTER A WHILE~~~~~~~~~~~~
They had already explained what had happen without details before Chihiro woke up.
-So it really took over him. To say the truth he's always been like that after then, huh?
-Yes.
That moment Chihiro finally opened her eyes, she was lying on a soft couch.
-Haku?
-Yes?
And then reality and memeories of the past events hit her on the head.
-Ok tell me what's going on; you're supposed to hate me, your father should not try to rape me and Kyo, what is Kyo doing back home?
-Well there is a long story behind that,, would you like to hear it?
-Oh, yes please.
-But, before why don't you try some tea it will help you calm down.
-Yes please, she accepeted recieving a cup of hot drink from Zeniba.
-Huh? Granny? Long time no see! Said Chihiro squizing the life out of her granny.
-Good to see you too my child and I can see that you're not alone.
-Oh, um, yeah, probably, she said with a slight blush appearing on her face as she understood excactly what she implied about hers and Haku's relationship with Hikari as evidence. Why don't we go on withh the story?
-Oh, well some hundredths' of years ago, Kyo had loved a woman, a very beautiful and powerful spirit, said Zeniba.
-I think we should explain some other things before that, suggested Hanabi.
-Well, why don't we? Begin.
-You know Chihiro my husband always had a very good reputation, they covered the truth better than good. So I fell in the trap and married him. But when the masks were off, I could clearly see that he was a rapper and serial killer.
-What? How do you know?
-I saw him with my own eyes. You know as Zeniba said Kyo had a wonderful wife….
-Oh, don't tell me… I'm sorry…
-I'm just happy that that didn't happened to you too, said Hanabi giving her a warm but still sad smile.
A tear fell off Zeniba's cheek.
-What happened?
-Kyo's wife, Nozomi, was her only daughter.
-What? Oh Granny I'm so sorry.
-And as I was saying, he never figured out that I had saw him making love to Nozomi's dead body. She started crying. I was useless I could have helped her if I had seen it earlier. I'm so sorry Zeniba.
-It's OK, she answered softly.
Haku didn't seem to talk at all. It was like he was hearing it for first time. Surprise, anger and frustration were all over his face.
-So ,sob, we had to act like we didn't know anything and I had to play ,sob, for our best. But now that you are here we must protect you and that's what Kyo's doing back there.
-What do you mean?
-I mean that is time for this sicken bastard to die and pay for what he did. I just can't believe it! We had to stay quiet, cause he'd kill my sons if we did anything to stop him from harming.
Chihiro didn't pay so much attention to Hanabi's words. She was shocked as Haku was.
-Haku are, are you OK?
-No, really no.
-Mama?
-Hi-Hikari?
-Where are we ?
-At granny Zeniba's.
-Oh…What happened?
Chihiro went near her and hugged her daughter squeezing her life out of her.
"What happens next? And what the hell are we supposed to do now", she thought "Just too much trouble! I can't take it anymore'' her thoughts continued as she took her husband's and daughter's hand, getting outside to breathe some clear air.
