Chapter 10: Faith

Koa got up the stage and cleared his throat as he turned on the mike.

Marcus sent him a support look among the excited crowd.

-Ok guys, please, there's something I'd like you to know- he said, and soon all of them kept silence.

-First of all, I want you to forgive me for not telling you this before, now I see that it didn't worth it- he said the last words more for him; -I… I have been dating Holly-.

Immediately the room was full of gasps and the looks ran from Koa to Jojo.

-J man, say something- said Mike shaking Jojo a bit to make him react.

-Uh… So? –said Jojo not really having an opinion for it, he was as surprised as the rest: Koa having a gurlfriend? And that one was his sister? No, he couldn't think anything.

-But guys; the bad new is that…I'm going to brake with her. I just wanted to let you know this, we've been dating in secret since Aaron's and Pam's wedding, she didn't want me to tell anyone, but I've had enough. Uh…Thank you for listening. Good night- said Koa and got down from the stage. But before he could step in the first step, Pam caught him and made him turn.

-Don't be sad brother, I'm sure that you loved her truthfully, but even the strongest heart can't hide happiness like that for much. I don't know why Holly asked that to you, but I'm sure that she had a good reason to do it- she told him as she put a hand on his cheek and kissed his free cheek.

Just then Vienna came.

-Don't worry about not having a girl anymore, all of us, your brothers and sisters love you Koa- she said to cheer him up and hugged him.

-That's true! –said the five sisters as all of them surrounded him in a big hug.

-Now, try to sleep well- said Pam.

-There's no better thing to calm down a broken heart than a good sleep- said Vienna.

-So good night. Thank you gurls- said Koa as he walked upstairs and waved.

-Good night Koa- said the seven gurls.

-I've never had so loyal and truthful audience- said Justin to Mana.

~o~o~o~o~o~o~

-Holly?

-Koa? Are you alright?

-Not really. I need to tell you something

-I don't like the tone of your voice

-Neither me like that much what I'm going to tell you

-What is it?

…

-Holly, I've told the pack about us

-…

-And I've make a decision

-Tell me

-I…I can't be anymore with you

Holly laughed nervously for a second: -Are you still angry because of what we talked in the afternoon?

-No, I'm talking seriously

-So…so you…

-I'm braking up with you

-Koa…

-I'm sorry. If this helps you, this isn't easy for me, but it's not fair what you're doing to us.

-And what about me?

-I don't want to offend you but, really, this has always been about you.

Koa hang the phone, ran to his window, he opened it and howled to the darkness of the night…

And Holly heard it at the bottom of her heart.

~o~o~o~o~o~o~

The next day, Vienna got up first as every morning. She got into the kitchen and started making the breakfast. Fifteen minutes later, Pam was supposed to go downstairs and help her, but she didn't. Marcus got down, then Koa (who hadn't a nice look; still none asked him, they knew well what happened); Mana, Jonah, Cyrus…

-Has anyone seen Pam? I need some help - asked Vienna.

Up in the couple's room Pam was looking out the window, her hair untied and she had… a dress? A simple pink dress for the housework. "Who Cure" was playing "Just like heaven" for the third time and Aaron was staring at her without words to say. Now she was trying to heal herself, whatever he could say would cut her wings. He couldn't even touch her, now she was trying to fly as the dove she was.

What a disillusion! Pam was trying to fly after falling from a cliff. And what a cliff too! Her desire of feeling once more a small creature inside was destroyed by the cruel true, the test said no, and the next one, and the next one… No.

Just then she turned her look to his husband who waited for her to give some signs of coming back to the ground. He saw her shiny eyes, and in a second she was into his embrace and started crying, no holding back for more the pain.

-It's ok- he whispered to her as her tears soaked his shirt.

-I wanted him, really- she could say before the song started again.

-I know- he told her caressing her hair and kissing her head.

-It isn't fair…- she told him. It's never fair when the life plays with your illusion and desires. –Stay with me…please- continued.

Aaron took out his cell and made a call. He knew she needed him there, at least to have some branch where to perch.

~o~o~o~o~o~o~

Seven years after…

New ones had joined to the pack; they were twenty seven people at home now: Mana, Jojo, Koa, Aaron, Pam, Jonah, Vienna, Cyrus, and his gurlfriend Hoku, Sam, Travis, Hawk, Vienna's brothers: Damien, Chris, James and Nick that were resuscitated, Mike, Marcus, Cody, Justin, and his boyfriend PJ (yes, Justin is bi here) who is Hoku's brother; Siris and Lehua, two friends that supported the pack in great trials as well some other friends (The animals: Manu, Lio, Io and Pueo), and of course the children of the couples, Shamus, who was ten now; Andrew (Jonah's and Vienna's) who was seven, and Michelle (Siris' and Lehua's) who was four.

Koa and Holly became friends soon, she assumed that she had been ridiculous and asked him to be friends; she liked a lot how Koa used to make her forget about the council stuff.

Justin recovered his parents, but he stayed with the pack and his boyfriend, and about him being bi was a bit fast new for the pack, but they never rejected him.

Pam's dad now visited them each fortnight and had accepted Aaron and his grandson, just as Ned accepted Jojo's and Mana's relationship.

And Pam's former desire? She still wanted one little kid, maybe for all the happiness that the first years of Shamus' life brought to her and Aaron as well to the rest of the pack; but she assumed that it was a dream…

The doorbell rang insistent.

-I'm coming- said Pam.

As soon as she opened the door she saw a young gurl who was about fifteen, she was crying and she looked as if she had been running and had a crying and that seemed to have born just a few days ago.

-Keep her and take care of her. My boyfriend didn't want her to born and he left, but now he's back and he's going to kill her. Please save her, he's near from here.

-I can help you too- said Pam.

-No, just keep my baby- said the gurl took off a golden necklace with a letter "K" and gave it to Pam.

-This is for you… I'm sorry, I can't do anything more for you- said the lass and kissed the baby before she disappeared in the distance.

Pam went in and waited against the door. She heard a guy calling a name, "Kale" or something like that; just then she sighed and looked at the little angel in her arms.

Ok guys, you didn't expect that ending right? :p Well you see, I know it isn't a very happy one, but this happens in reality and it's very sad.
