THAT HURT TOO DEEP – Ch. 5
Disclaimer: Well, you know…I don't own anything Tenchi…AIC and Pioneer do…
Tenchi walked into the house, wearing only the small, white towel he had on in the
onsen, looking completely stumped and out of it.
"Tenchi! Whats wrong? Lunch is ready."
"No thanks, Sasami, Im not hungry…"
"Oh, okay then."
"Um, Tenchi, can I talk to you for a second?" Washu had popped her head of her lab
door and was motioning for Tenchi to come in.
"No, Washu, that's okay…" I can't tell them! I promised! Tenchi headed up the
stairs and into his bedroom, leaving the door ajar.
"Is it just me, or is Tenchi acting really weird??" Washu asked Sasami.
"No, something's up. You know, it is the first time he's seen Ryoko in about three
months…she hasn't come out of the onsen yet."
Tenchi sat on his bed, looking out his window. Down the hall he could hear Ryoko's
sobs, coming from her room. Tenchi sighed and got up with watery eyes to close the
door. My poor Ryoko…how she must feel…
He returned to his bed, and stared once again out into the distance through his window.
Beyond the trees, he could see Ryoko's cave, hidden beneath layers of shade.
"Everything is my fault…I let Ryoko out…I was mean and awful to her, I hit her and
yelled at her…and now this! Its all my fault!! How can I ever make it up to you, Ryoko?"
Ryoko's sobs were getting louder, and Tenchi could here them through his door. "My
Ryoko…I…I…don't know how to tell you…anything…" Tenchi drew in a deep,
depressed breath, he was confused, and hurt…hurt that Ryoko had to suffer through all
this pain…just because of him! He stood up and shuffled to his door, which he slowly
opened. He cringed at how hard Ryoko was crying, and hoped with everything he had in
him that no one down stairs knew what was going on. He slowly stepped down the hall
to Ryoko's room. If I knock, she might disappear and I'll never get to tell her!
Tenchi quietly opened the door and inch and peered in. "NO!!! RYOKO!!" Tenchi dove
for Ryoko, and grasped her tightly in her arms. "Ryoko!" Tenchi said quietly, 'What
were you doing??"
"You'd want to die, too, if you were carrying the child of your worst enemy!"
