chapter 1: A Small Gift
Friday afternoon, the Outer's HUGE mansion....
The whole house seemed unusually empty and quiet, except one "statue" that was crouching on the sofa---
"Hhmmm...." The "statue"--Tenoh Haruka, let out a long long heavy sigh,stretched and rolled off the comfy sofa,her spine cracking loudly.She fought hard to focus on the racing magazine at hand---which was really difficult,but failed miserably.She felt something DIFFERENT.
Something is not right here!! The house was too quiet!....
It nearly drove the blonde's brain mad."Where the Hell was everyone?!..." Haruka really wanted to scream to the whole house, but at that time, the worst thing happened:her stomach began grumbling.
"oh damn!..."Haruka silently groaned,covering her frustrated face with the magazine.She knew it CLEARLY that she couldn't do anything to tame her tummy,and she even couldn't cook to survive herself!!
Michiru had a rehearsal in the orchestra, Setsuna stayed in her lab,her lovely Hotaru-chan still didn't come back from her school...Why is SHE the one that stuck here having nothing to do?!
"Just for today...."Haruka quietly reminded herself,"Tomorrow,I will have a car race,how can I win it with this 'homeless' state?..."Not without the love and cheering of her beloved family...
"Bang!!..."The front door suddenly crashed open and a little hurrican came flowing in."Haruka-papa, I'm home!!..."came the lovely shriek of a 6-year-old girl.
Haruka's ears quickly erected like a skilled police dog."Hime-chan!...."Haruka rose from her sofa in a hardly-human speed, opened her long arms prepare to give her daughter a strong bear hug,but---- she missed.
The small wind rustled pass her."Sorry Haruka-papa!..I have something important to do right now.I will see you later here!!...Bye!----"
With these words, Hotaru declaimed to her papa and quickly ran upstairs.Haruka froze there,her arms still stretching out.
Scene darkened...A cartoon-like cold wind whistled and blowed pass the "petrified statue" of the racer...
*****
Later....
"Papa!!..wake up!...I have something to show you!..."
Haruka finally lazily open her eyes(she did fell asleep at last),sitting up and looked down.Her Hime-chan stood there,looking at her with a mysterious smile on her small round face.
"Oh!Really?..Hime-chan."Haruka managed to put a most charming smile on her face, picked up her daughter and cradled her small frame in her arms."What's it?..."
Excited stars sparkled in the toddler's big purple eyes. Hotaru sat herself comfortably on her papa's lap,"papa, you have to close your eyes first and hold out your hand!..."
"Oww,you little devil....Hm,okay..."Haruka smiled at her daughter's trick, but obeyed anyway.
She felt Hotaru put a small thing in her palm.She then opened her eyes slowly.A carefully folded paper crane was in her hand,its golden color seemed burning in her eyes.
"Woww,it's beautiful...Hime-chan, you made it for me,right?.."
"Yes,papa!!..."Hotaru nodded with a serious expression in her face,then she smiled satisfied."I just learned how to make it in school today.Papa,you have a race tomorrow,I wish Haruka-papa will win,so I quickly come home and make it to you...."she babbled happily.
Haruka now understood why Hotaru ran away so quickly as soon as she entered the house.'She did it all by herself... just for me....'There's a aching feeling raising in Haruka's heart, and she suddenly felt her eyes stinged.But she still kept a warm and gentle face outside.
"Okay.With this small gift,then Papa surely will win tomorrow!!...Arigatou ne,Hime-chan!!.."Haruka smiled and playfully ran a fatherly hand through her daughter's purple short hair.
"Stop that!Papa,you will ruin my hair!..."Hotaru-chan laughed,her big kitten-like eyes shining with happiness.She hugged her papa tightly and willingly return the favor---use both hands to caress her papa's head as well, tousling her already unruly blond hair.
Haruka didn't seem to care about this at all and laughed with her Hime-chan.She only felt happy,love and trust...with her daughter,with the people she loved,with her family...She unconsiously held the small girl tighter.
"What happened? Is there anything happy you two didn't tell us?..."Michiru asked curiously,opening the door and stripping her shoes.Nearly the same time,Setsuna followed the aqua-hair senshi and entered the house.
"It's a secrect!!---"Came the union answer from the father and daughter in the living-room. Michiru arched an eyebrow,turning to Pluto.Setsuna only shrugged.
Haruka smirked and made eye contact with Hotaru.The little girl only giggled slightly.
"Papa,that's our deal!OK?...."
"Sure!..."
