I would like to thank all the reviewers that have...uhh...reviewed. XD
Well, on with Chapter 4!
Chapter 4: Thank You
Three years later...
'No matter how far I fly away...no matter if I'm forbidden to see you...I'll come back, and make you smile again, Kai...'
Her words were stuck in his mind, and they wouldn't leave him alone. Ever since she left, he felt like he was growing insane. He held on tight to her feather.
Kai wanted her to come back. He couldn't live alone. He couldn't live without someone there to help him throught his hard times.
First, Kai's father began to drink.
Then he had hurt his mother.
Soon after, they couldn't take it anymore, and they divorced.
'At least there won't be anymore fights...' he thought.
He was to live with his mother, far away. Kai could visit his father for the summer, but he wasn't allowed to see him any other time.
Kai felt tears sting his eyes. He refused to let them free.
'I can't give up now...Not like my parents did.' he thought, furiously wiping away his wet and pink eyes.
Sincerity's feather glowed brightly. Kai smiled.
"You'll always be there, right?"
The feather grew wam.
'Yes, I always will...Kai.'
It felt wonderful to him to hear her voice. He smiled again, turning the feather with his fingers. It was very soft.
"Please come for me, I want to see you." he whispered to the feather.
'I will. Meanwhile, don't cry. Just keep smiling. I will come to you...soon. Very soon.'
Then Kai felt the warmth of her smile, and her wings wrap around him.
He couldn't stop thinking of her. Her image kept popping up in his head, and then it would disappear, making him feel depressed.
He dreamt of her at night, she was smiling at him. She would hug him and make him feel better. She would sneak up behind him, and tug at his sleeve, and he would turn around, but see nothing. Then he turned around, only to see Sincerity's cute smile. She would peck him on the cheek, and giggle, while he reddened, and pout.
Her giggle...her soft voice...her big, innocent light-brown eyes...and her smile... It filled his small and sad heart with so much joy.
He had moved to a new school, where the children there didn't think he was a liar. He still couldn't make friends, everybody was mean to him. They would tease him, and throw objects at his hair. He would ignore them, but they kept bothering him.
Everyday after school, he would lay down in the grass, in his mother's flower patch, hidden from a passer-by's view. He would lay down there, look up a the sky, and watch the birds fly across the light-blue sky.
His auburn eyes skimmed over to the puffy, white clouds.
'On one of those clouds, I sit, waiting for a chance to come to you...my Kai.'
He closed his eyes and smiled. He held on to her feather tightly as he napped.
That night he dreamt of her again, she tickled and hugged him, making him feel like the happiest person on earth.
The next day, at school, he was cornered by a wall, at recess.
"Hand over the ball, freak." one of the boys said. He had blue eyes, and glasses.
Kai glared at him, and shook his head.
One of the other boys tackled him to the ground, and he fell, releasing the ball. They snickered, and left him lying on the cement floor, his bottom lip bleeding.
He stood, and wiped away the blood with the back of his hand.
After school, Kai ran towards his house, went straight to his mom, and hugged her.
"Is something wrong, honey?" she said, picking him up, and sitting him on the counter.
He told her about his day. She cleaned the small bruise on his bottom lip, which had turned a dark blue. He ran to his room, and buried his face in his hands. He grabbed Sincerity's feather, and held it tightly.
Then a small smile formed on his face. He remembered what Sincerity told him.
'Just keep smiling...'
He slept smiling that night, dreaming happily of his favorite angel.
The next day, he sat on one of the benches during recess. He didn't do his homework, and he had to sit and watch the other children play.
The same gang of boys crowded around him.
"Well...if it isn't the freak." a boy said in the back. His two front teeth were missing.
They poked him roughly in the shoulder, making him fall over. They laughed at him, and then left.
He stood, his hand on his left elbow. He took his hand away, and stared at his blood-covered hand. He was bleeding from a scrape on his elbow.
A teacher saw him, and sent him to the nurse's office. They covered his small scrape with a band-aid, and sent him home early.
When he got home, he ran straight to his secret place, only to find that someone else was already there.
She sat on the soft green grass, her back to him. She turned around and smiled.
"Hello, Kai." Sincerity said, smiling at him.
He smiled widely, and plopped down next to her. She hugged him.
"I missed you."
"I missed you too, Kai."
Her soft light-brown hair flowed down her back, in small curls. She too had grown older, making her look more cute and pretty. Her big light-brown eyes glowed of pure happiness.
He still had bood on his hands. She stared at them. She took one of his hands in hers.
Her skin was very soft and smooth, unlike his. His were rough.
"I'm sorry I couldn't help you. If I heal your wounds, will you forgive me?" she said, looking sadly up at him. He smiled and nodded.
She wrapped both her hands around Kai's hands, and closed her eyes. He felt as a small shock strike his whole body, and then she opened her eyes, and looked up at him.
She closed her eyes again, and laid a small kiss on his lips.
Kai felt his stomach do a backflip. He felt his face redden, and his ears grew red and hot.
She smiled as she she pulled back.
He stared down at her with surprise.
The bruise on his bottom lip quickly faded, and the small scrape on his elbow started to close.
Then she held out her hands. In her small hands, she held a pink flower. It was the same flower he had given her three years before.
But it was still alive. It still had the same vivid pink. But it was much bigger; it had bloomed.
She looked up at him, and smiled. He bit his bottom lip, and reddened even more.
"Thank you...for the flower, Kai. You don't know how much it means to me." she said, hugging him. He smiled and hugged her back.
"No. Thank you...for being here. For making me feel so glad, of being alive." he said, softly. He gazed down at her, into her innecent light-brown eyes. She stared up at him in awe. Then she smiled.
"You're welcome." she said, happily.
Kai suddenly pulled her close to him, and held her. She stared at his chest, in surprise, and then smiled.
He let his hand pass freely through her soft, silky light-brown hair, as she closed her eyes.
She lifted her head, so it was placed at the crook of his neck. He smiled, and then let go of her.
She stood, and her white wings appeared. Kai looked up at her with a soft, sad smile. She smiled back at him.
She flapped her wings, and hovered over him. She kissed his forehead. Then she flew higher, looking down at him.
"We'll always be best friends, right Kai?" she said, smiling.
Kai stared at her for a moment, and a sad smile appeared on his face.
"Yeah...friends." he said, looking up at her. She smiled even more, and flew higher, her hand still holding the pink flower.
He stared up at her as her small figure disappeared into the sky.
Then he stared down at the grass, sadly.
'Yeah...only friends...' he thought, as a tear slid down his cheek.
