That night Domon decided to tell Lilly about how he was asked to
participate in the Gundam Fight. Lilly sat on his lap and listened to him
nodding her head every now and then. "So I'd get to go to Earth?" she asked
excitedly.
"Well baby I was thinking about letting you stay here with Grandpa so you could stay in school," Domon told her.
"You want to leave me here," Lilly said as she started to cry. "I love Grandpa but he isn't you Daddy. I want to be with you."
"Lilly don't you want to stay here with all of your friends?" Domon asked her. "You would have way more fun doing that."
"Daddy you said that we're a family," Lilly told him sternly. "Family means that no one is left behind or forgotten."
"Lilly I'm trying to do what's best for you," Domon said to her. "Moving around from country to country day by day isn't a good life for a six-year-old. It isn't really a good life for anyone. I want you to stay here where I know that you're safe."
"Daddy I don't want you to leave me behind," Lilly cried throwing her arms around his neck. "It would just kill me."
"Lilly you're staying here and that's final," Domon told her sternly. "Maybe Grandpa will take you to go see the Battle Royal next December. Then you'll still get to see Earth but for a shorter time period. It would be to dangerous for you to go."
"Yes Daddy," Lilly said tearfully. Domon gently laid Lilly down on her bed and kissed her forehead. He slowly left the room and closed the door behind him. He could hear Lilly's soft sobs from behind the door.
"What's wrong with Lilly?" Dr. Kasshu asked when he saw his son's unhappy expression as he walked into the room.
"I just told her that she can't go with me for the Gundam Fight," Domon told him. "I hated doing it but Lily will be safer here with you. I told her that you might be able to take her to see the Battle Royal though. She's in there crying herself to sleep."
"Don't worry son," Dr. Kasshu told him. "She'll be fine. Just give her a little time."
"I hope you're right," Domon said sullenly. "I hope you're right."
