Outside Minako reveled in the rain. The cool droplets fell on her relentlessly as it drenched her completely. She hoped that it would never stop raining. The gloominess of the night went well with her melancholic state. Naturally when it rains and thunders something wrong always happens, something sad. Is it not true?
Did she know that the one she once loved looked at her from his window? His tear stricken face now dry. His flawless face filled with pain. Those steel gray orbs red. How could he have done this? Kunzite felt ashamed. He saw as his golden haired angel disappears into the night. Goodbye angel...... till we meet again...... if you desire.....
She ran in the rain. Enjoyed every moment the water splashed on her pale skin. She stopped infront of a park. Momentarily looking around. Then again her eyes began to water and warm liquid spilled from them. This place brought back memories that should be buried and never dug up again. That was precisely why she was here to leave the memoir of Kunzite. Her small hands went to her face and she brushed the tears away.
"This is where we first met. As children we used to play here or more accurately you used to protect me. For what reasons I do not know. I remember you were always jealous of other boys. It was funny. Little things always made you angry, especially me. I was 11 and you 14. We grew up and parted. You met Linda and left. I met somebody too but he hurt me. Five years later we met again. In this park you consoled and comforted me. You promised you'd never hurt me. But promises are never kept. Farewell Kunzite it was a delight having your love for a while. " She whispered this to no one in particular. The past was buried now. Kunzite erased. She walked away from the park.
The rain stopped leaving the humidity to take over. Where is she to go? She thought of places to stay. First place to come to her mind was Usagi and Mamoru's home. They would surely take her in but she was not in the mood to be with the perfect couple. Plus they just finished adding someone new to the family. Their daughter Chibi Usa was born a few days ago. They don't have time to help out an old friend.
There was Makoto but the fair lady might be busy traveling back and forth to Tokyo and back to Miami checking on her restaurants. Ami is probably studying or working at Miami Children's Hospital. The brain finally made her dream come true. At the tender age of 26 she became a well-known pediatrician. Rei must be busy working things out with Chad. The last time she heard of them, they separated due to the fact that Chad cheated on her. Don't all men cheat?
What about Michiru and Haruka? That wouldn't be such a great idea. After all they told Minako that Kunzite had been seeing another woman. She wasn't in the mood for the whole "I told you so " speech. Hotoru was experiencing life on her own there is no need to be a burden on her. Why would she want to have a depressed bitter woman staying with her?
Last person to come to mind was Setsuna. She always had time for everything. Yes, Minako will go to her. Setsuna is just like her. They both lost there faith in...... love.
Minako continued to walk down the street. Setsuna did not live that far from where Minako had. Again the pang of pain hit her like an icy blade. Her heart ached like never before. Dear God why did she have to fall inlove again knowing that love wasn't for her? She broke into a run. She was almost to Setsuna's house. After five minutes she turned a corner and there was Setsuna's house. It was quite small but nonetheless something to look forward to everyday. She walked up the two steps and knocked on the door.
She wondered if Setsuna would still be awake. Doubt crossed Minako's mind. It was well past midnight. She slumped down to her knees and began to cry again. She felt so much pain. All of a sudden the door opened and out came Setsuna.
Her garnet eyes fell on the golden hair girl.
"Minako, what's wrong? " She went down on her knees and took the younger girl into her arms and began to rock her back and forth. Minako continued to cry. She grasped onto Setsuna and sobbed into her hair. So much pain came out from her.
"Kunzite...... Kunz....... He...... he...... "
"What Minako-chan? What did Kunzite do? "
Setsuna held Minako tightly. Still rocking her coaxing her the best she could. But all Minako could do was cry. "Shhh Mina-chan. Shhh... I'm here..... Shh..... Whatever it is, it will pass. "
"No it will never pass! "Minako said as she pushed herself away from Setsuna. She looked at the floor and rocked herself. Setsuna looked at her friend with pity.
"Kunzite cheated on me. I hurt so bad Setsuna. My heart it aches. Everything aches. "
Setsuna did not know what to say. Again poor Minako had to be decieved. Nothing good ever lasts with her. She looked so helpless. So vulnerable and alone. Damn Kunzite for betraying her. Damn him to hell! He'll get his though. Better said he already has. He lost the only thing that would ever love him unconditionally. How could anyone love someone who is as cold as him? Minako did. And she stood by his side all the time. Whatever he wanted she'd give him. Anything he dreamed of she supported.
"Why does this have to happen to me again? Didn't I give him all that I have? " Minako finally said crying no more.
"Yes you did. "
