Chapter 12: Thoughts Of Wisdom.
I stare at the four in surprised. What… What should I do? What should I say!? They smile at me, making me feel even more uncomfortable then before. Sora noticed the panic from within him and was about to speak to my friends when I beat him to it.
"I…"
They all stare at me now.
"I… N-no!'
The twins stare at him with wide eyes.
"I can't… Sorry, guys."
I look up with a sad smile.
"I don't really want to be a part of this…"
I then stood up and ran right on out of the green house with Sora behind me. Shin stares at where I was last seen while his little sister looks at her older brother.
"Shin?"
"Yes?"
She forms a small smile.
"Give him time... He just became a Shugo Chara owner after all."
He thought about it before nodding his head in understanding.
"Will since that is all clear up, let's get home or else mother and father will not be pleased."
"Of course."
Haruhi agrees, getting up as well.
"After all father will be displeased with our dance practice if not being done today."
She winks at her older brother who went a little pale at the thought and sighs in defeat before the two leave the building with their Characters behind them. I continue to run all the way home with Sora following close behind me.
"Sosuke!"
He calls out but I didn't listen as I continue to park through the park and came to a stop, panting before I took a seat on a wooden bunch and try to catch my breath.
"Sosuke…?"
Sora calls out as I look down with panting sounds as I try to calm down.
"What's gotten into me? It's just Shin and Haruhi for crying out loud!"
I whisper as Sora frowns and sits onto my shoulder, using his small hand to pat my shoulder at the same time.
"What should I do…? What should I say to them when I see them again?"
Sora wasn't sure what to say so instead someone else answer him.
"It's simple. You go talk to them."
I blink in question before noticing a tall adult man sitting next to me so I jump up in surprise and let out a small yelp before getting a good look at this guy and frown. It's just some old dude with dark blue hair and eyes in working clothes… Wait those eyes…! I've seen them somewhere before… The unknown man smirks before looking up at the blue sky.
"It's never a bad thing. You just ran away because you didn't know how to react trowds it."
I blink and stare at him in shock. Was he listening this whole time…? And why didn't I notice this guy when I sat down!?
"Um… Do I know you…?"
I ask him, getting the adult to look over with his smirk.
"No, you don't. It's the same with me too though. I just thought a nice walk would do me some good is all… But I then found you sitting there with a frown and I couldn't help but noticed that it is something really important."
I pale a little. Is this guy…?
"No, I'm not a kidnapper or any of the sorts. I'm just a normal dad who is lost in a sea of thoughts."
I went back to staring as Sora came hiding out from behind me and pokes his head to look at the adult. The man noticed Sora and smirks wider.
"Oh… I think I know what the problem is now, yes?"
I didn't notice that he spotted my Character.
"H-huh?"
He stands up and walks over to me and my Character.
"You are put into a situation where you don't know what to say. Your friends want you to join them in some kind of a group, right?"
My eyes went wide as well as Sora's did so he hid behind me again.
"Don't worry about it. Things will work out in the end."
He begins to walk away with his hands in his pockets when I call out for him.
"Wait!"
He stops but doesn't turn around to me.
"Why are you trying to help someone you don't know? I mean… It's so unlike adults to do that…"
The man finally turns his head and smiles at me.
"There's nothing wrong with being different, ya know. I am who I am and you are who you are… if you're scared because of joining something; you could always leave if there's something you don't like. You're scared because of what will happen. You don't know what to feel because this is your first time. No one is going to force you to join anything."
I stare at the man with wide eyes. How…? What!?
"When I was younger…"
He begins, looking back up at the sky with a smile.
"I was forced to do things I didn't want too… I hurt close friends and loved ones. I'm guess I'm just lucky to be here with them still. I didn't get the chance to pick what side I wanted… In the end, after I was free from that old life, I had to make a new one and make a choice of my own."
He stops for a moment so I ask him:
"And what was it?"
He smirks at the sky.
"I was giving a choice to live my life the with my family with freedom or… Go off in an adventure to find someone I needed back into my life. I join the adventure and now that I have found him, I came back and started another chapter in my life."
The two of us continue to stare at the older man.
"The choices you make in life are up to you. There will be risks but things are worth it if you just give it a try. Don't just stand around and waste your life. Make choices and fight against the risks. If you chose to do nothing then you have nothing to gain but lose all."
And with that the man begins to walk away. I didn't know what to think at first so I shout over to him.
"HEY!"
He stops to look at me with his smile.
"What's your name!?"
He chuckles at my question before answering.
"Tsukiyomi, Ikuto."
Later…
"Master Shin!"
Shin looks up from his homework.
"Yeah?"
The family's maid, Abby comes walking over to him after knocking the door of his room.
"You have a call from Hotori, Sosuke."
Shin gets up, thanked Abby, before walking over to the phone in the hall way and answers the phone.
"Hello?"
"Hey."
Shin smiles on his end.
"What's up?"
Sosuke seemed to hesitate before answering him.
"I was thinking about that offer you and your sister were giving…"
"Oh? What about it?"
"… Is it too late to take the offer?"
Shin chuckles before answering.
"The offer is still up. I take it you want to join?"
Sosuke didn't say anything yet until speaking.
"Yeah…"
My smile turns into a smirk now.
"See you at school tomorrow then! See ya Sosuke."
"… Yeah, see ya."
I hang up the phone and walk over to the dance room in our manor house. I knock once before entering to see my sister dancing and is being taught by our father. Mother is in the kitchen with Abby, making dinner.
"Haruhi."
I call over, getting my sister and father to look over. Haruhi asks for a five minute break and father nods his head yes before running over to me.
"What is it?"
I smile wider at her.
"Sosuke's in."
Haruhi smiles at the news.
A/N: See you all soon!
