Lilika was sitting on the grass near the lake at her backyard. It was a bright and beautiful night. The full moon reflected on the water gave her a feeling that felt as she is one with nature. Looking at the starts reminded her of the day her father scarified himself to save her and her brother.
*Flashback*
It was a starry night. She was about 5 years old and her brother was about 9.They went all for a walk through the woods. Her father always was working through the day so each night they would spend some quality time together. But that night they were surrounded by a group of bandits. "Hand over the children and no one will get hurt."-one of them said. "I'll never give up my children."-her father said. Then he made an attempt to save the 3 of them. But it was all in vain. They were running and a sword was about to get Lilika when her father stood between it and her. "Run away my children. Tell your mother that... I love you all."-those were the last words he ever said.
*End of Flashback*
'You were so foolish dear father.'-thought the girl with watery eyes.- 'Thank you.' A tear fell gently and slowly down her cheek. "Thinking by yourself?"-a voice said behind her. She turned around and found her brother standing in the darkness. "Hi."-she said cleaning the tear off. "Where you crying?"-Sanosuke said sitting next to her. Lilika nodded slowly. "Why Lili?"- he asked putting an arm around her shoulder. "I was thinking about father."- she answered getting close to him. "Don't."-her brother said- "Everytime you do you get depressed." "I try not to Sano."-Lilika answered looking at him- "But I can't help it. It's just something that comes to hunt me and then leaves and then comes back." "I know how you feel dear Lili. It happens to me a lot. Sometimes I think that I should have been the one saving you. But I was too busy running away and left you both behind."-said Sanosuke trying to comfort her. "Don't say that. You just where trying to save yourself."-she added no comforting him- "Look, let's forget about it all and tell me why you came anyway." "Oh! Thank you for reminding me sister."-Sanosuke said smiling- "I wanted to tell you to come meet Aoshi's friend." "I'll be there in a minute."-she answered. "Good"-he said standing- "I'll tell our guests that you're coming." "No problem."- Lilika said smiling. Sanosuke left and Lilika stayed sitting for a few seconds. She then stood up and walked inside.
