A/N: Hey! Ok. I know. There were about 1001 thousand spelling mistakes in the last chapter. I'm really, really sorry! It's Daph and not Dash. I should go and change it…. Ok. I know I've been writing "first war" but that's just to not confuse readers. So there's a mistake in the previous chapter. There's no second war. Destiny doesn't happen in this story. I'm just using the characters.

Disclaimer: same as the last chapter.

Ok. So… I hope you like this one...

Promises: let's see…

Miriallia's POV

Once the children had let go of me, Lacus and I ushered the children in with Kira behind us, closing the door after him. We brought the kids to the garden through the back door where there was a porch which had steps down to the garden. After seeing that the children had gotten down to the porch without any accidents (we all know that, if you are generalizing, young children are clumsy right?), we sat down on chairs on the porch and faced the garden, looking out for the children.

"So… how's it been?" Kira started.

"Alright. How 'bout the two of you? Anything new?" I questioned.

"Other than Kira turning into a gigantic couch potato, nothing!" Lacus giggled.

"Ha. Ha. Ha. Look at me. I'm laughing my eyes out." Kira said sarcastically. Then, "Who was the one piloting the Mobile Suit?"

"You. And being a couch potato isn't something bad…" Lacus countered.

"It implies it." Kira stated.

"Didn't know he knew how to flirt…" I whispered to Lacus.

"Hey! I heard that."

"Anyway, back to business. What are you doing now that the war is over?" Lacus asked.

"Same thing as before. The newspaper company is still sending me all over the country to take pictures of destruction sites." For some strange reason, I did not want to tell them what I saw today…

"Really? I think that's completely pointless. I mean, they wouldn't have changed right?" Lacus stated.

"Yeah. But I don't know. There must have been a reason. But let's not talk about work please? I find it nauseating… have both of you seen anyone else besides Cagalli?

"Sai dropped by once. But I don't think he should have. He gave the children sweets." Kira said.

"The children must love him huh."

"You wouldn't believe it. He must have somehow given them the impression he was overflowing with sweets because when he tried to leave, they pleaded him for more! They wouldn't accept that he said he had none left." Lacus giggled.

"Poor Sai…"

"How has it been for you? Seriously, I don't believe nothing's new for you. How's it been going on with Dearka?" Kira questioned.

Oh no. nonononono. Not that question. Why Kira, Why? "Is my relationship with him that appealing?"

"Of course! The way he looked at you… The way You looked at him…" Lacus said dreamily.

Ya. Key word. Looked. Past tense. "The truth? Well… we haven't been seeing each other…"

"E-mail? Calls? Don't tell me nothing…" said Lacus, a little worried.

"Ok. I won't tell you."

"What? But but but… oh no…." said Lacus.

"I can't believe it too. I thought it was on?" Kira said.

"Well… things happen..." I guess…

It remained quiet for a while. Until I had this great idea to revert the conversation.

"Getting married?"

"What!" both yelled. The children stopped playing for a while when they heard the scream. I giggled.

"Miriallia! Na ne… It's not funny ok!" Kira said/ scolded me.

"You should have seen your facial expressions…" I giggled. "Ok. We can skip that."

"Good. I can't believe you said that…" Lacus stated, still a little shocked.

We chatted a while more until it was time to prepare lunch. We called the children in. they groaned but followed instructions anyway. I helped prepare lunch and after eating (and talking. When my mouth was not full), I said my goodbyes and headed for home in a shorter direction, taking my time. I had nothing else better to do so I recalled the events that happened since I woke up. A while later, I remembered that piece of living crap. I can't believe I forgot about her. What a mouth! Though she seriously looked like someone I've met before. I still couldn't put my finger on it.

I then thought of the children that led her to me.

They looked so proud of being her… bodyguards or something. Well, in other words, they looked like they were safeguarding a queen of some high class place. I seriously wonder what they saw in her. She looked so commanding. In a bad way of course.

A while later, I reached home. My parents had already left the house for work (they usually leave after lunch). I went up to my room and put down my camera bag. I flopped onto the bed even though I was not tired. After five minutes of stoning on my bed, I got up and booted the computer. I seriously needed to check my mail. I think I haven't done so for about a month and a half. When I reached my inbox, I was shocked. 22 unread messages. All of them weren't junk. For me, 22 messages were quite a lot for one and a half moths of being away. I scanned through the chain messages then go to the serious ones. Some were job things which I was not interested in and therefore deleted. The rest were from ex-classmates and such inviting for gatherings. I realized I had missed all of them. Then there was the last message.

Hello. It's been a while. How are you? I hope you're fine. I'm sorry for not keeping in contact with you. I… things have happened… I wish to meet up with you. If you're not already attached. Please reply within two weeks if it's fine with you. If not, then, I'll see you whenever I see you next. Please agree to come and meet?

Dearka Elthman

20/11

20/11…. Today's… oh no… I've missed it by two days….

At night

Daph's POV

"So… How was you day?"

URGH! When you ask someone how was their day, you look at them and NOT at the stupid computer!

"Fine." I said.

That damned natural! '…this land hasn't belonged to anyone since the buildings on it have been destroyed…' Whatever! So?

I was fuming and hadn't noticed my brother turn to look at me from the computer.

"Really? It doesn't sound like." He said.

Wow! He finally noticed! How slow could he get? "That's my problem." I snapped back. I pondered a while then—

"ok. It's not all my problem. Help me alright?"

"What with? You know my condition."

I didn't care for what he said and just continued. "Today I was on Earth with the children and this idiotic Natural had to come and spoil my otherwise perfect day. She just came like that and walked around as if she was queen of the entire universe and could then tread on which ever ground she fancied. She even wanted to take pictures for God's sake… who does she think she is anyway?"

"How does she look like?"

"What! Have you completely lost it? Here I am reliving the absolute most crappiest part of my day and all you can care for is how she looks like! If at matters to you so much, she has fair skin, light blue eyes, carrot coloured hair and looks to be about my age."

What the hell does he want with the description anyway?

Ok. This chapter wasn't any longer compared to the last one. In fact, I think it's shorter. I hope you people liked it.

Thanks for reviewing! xD really? It's nice? Don't put on the bluff… anyway…

Angel of Dreams: I broken promise is interesting? 0.o if you say so….

Sango A.R: I biased the rude ness on a "friend" of mine… xD

Freedom Rising: as soon as humanly possible? Huh? I don't geddit… ah well…

C-town Chica: I'm really sorry I didn't say why he didn't come back to her in this chapter…. It should be in the next chapter…

Writer of Dreams: I hope this is soon enough? I'm sorry… but I'm not really someone who would write a lot… give me one week and maybe there will be more… but I doubt that. xD

Nat: haha to you too… don't cut yourself.
