Ch.5


Akira stared at the ceiling of his room. One of T.K.'s books lay open on the floor beside his bed. I wonder if Mom and Mr. Takaishi still like each other...

The door of his room opened and Akira sat up as Kari came in.

Akira asked as Kari sat down on the edge of his bed, I have a question.

What is it, Akira?

Well, I was wondering if you still like Mr. Takaishi, Akira said quickly.

Kari looked surprised, Why do you ask that?

Akira looked sheepish, Because I know you were with him tonight. And I read Mr. Takaishi's book.

You're a smart boy, Akira Kamiya, Kari smiled, And since you figured that much out, I think your question deserves an honest answer.

It would anyways, right?

Kari giggled and stroked Akira's hair. Of course! Anyways... I guess I do like, even after all these years. But there's something that's bothering me...

What, Mom? Akira asked.

Well, you see Akira, T.K. and I loved each other very much. We even planned on getting married some day. But we had a fight, Kari cleared her throat, I don't even remember what it was about. All I know is that we were extremely angry at each other, and we broke up. We went our separate ways, married other people, got hurt, and- Kari choked on her words.

It's okay Mom... Akira took Kari's hand, You can stop if you want.

Kari shook her head, No Akira, it's your right to know, she took a deep breath and continued, I want with all my heart to go back to T.K.. But I feel guilty. I feel as though that fight was my fault... Kari started to cry, T.K. probably hates me now!
