Chapter 4

(Kira POV)

Blue Café

"Okay, what's the matter, Sai?" I asked, as I walked inside and saw Sai on the stools. He wasn't looking too well. Damn! Maybe he found out that Fllay and I…

"It's about Fllay…" Sai begins. Crap, he found out! But how? Fllay wouldn't tell him something like THAT.

"Um, what about Fllay?" I asked as I sat down. The waiter came up to me and asked me for any drinks. I refused, and Sai talks.

"She…she…died yesterday."

phew…he didn't find out about that…WHAT? FLLAY DIED? "What?"

"She was found dead in her room last night…it was a suicide."

"No…that can't be…" I continued.

"Everybody knows I had a crush on Fllay…just that she never realized it. I…think I'm going to go away for a while."

"Sai…I…think the reason she suicide...is because I…refused to have sex with her…"

"You what?"

"She…pulled me to her bed…and…"

"You bastard!" Sai got up and grabbed my collar. Both of his eyes were shed in tears. "You…"

I pushed Sai's hand away. "I'm sorry…"

"Kira Yamato… YOU!" Sai gave me a punch up my face and walked out of the Café. I was shedding in tears.

I then dragged myself back home.

"Kira, you're back…dinner's ready, and…" Dad says, but I completely ignored him. I locked myself in my room afterwards.

Why? Why? Why…all of a sudden…all that…happens to me…? I…

"Um, Kira…" My dad calls from the kitchen. "I'm going to the grocery store, I'll be back soon…" My dad leaves, and the door shuts. I tried to get some sleep…but not much later…

buzz…buzz…my phone rings. "…" I put it on answering mode.

"Hi, this is Kira, sorry I can't pick up the phone right now, please leave a message after the tone, and I'll call you as soon as possible. Beep."

"Hello, Kira?" A girl's voice sounded. "This is Miriallia, something happened to your father outside the grocery store as I passed by, you better come quick!"

Huh?

I quickly got up and ran towards the direction of grocery store. A whole crowd was gathering around it. I ran through the crowd and my father was laid there with a pool of blood. Miriallia, Dearka and Yzak was there.

"Dad!" I shouted as I got down towards him.

"Kira…" he mumbles. "The chest…your…father…"

"What chest…dad…? What chest…?"

"The crest….on….chest…" Dad then blacks out.

"Dad…" I started. "Dad…dad…DAD!"

A while later, at the hospital…

"Kira…I…" Miriallia starts. Dearka was behind her.

"Kira…I'm sorry…" Dearka starts. Yzak was in the back, didn't know what to do.

"I'll be alright…" I said. I walked away.

I took a taxi back to my house…I entered. The house was pitched black, I can see the moonlight flashing on the dinner that dad was preparing. I started crying again.

(Cagalli POV)

After a good, warm, shower, I sat down the couch and watched TV. My cell then rings. "Hello, Cagalli here."

"Cagalli, this is Lacus Clyne."

I shut off the TV immediately. I held the phone with both my hands. "Yes, oh, hi, La-Lacus. What's up?"

"Something's happened to Kira…"

"Huh?"

"His father just died."

"WHAT?" "You better go see him…"

"I will, thanks, Lacus. Good night." I hung up, and quickly searched for Kira's number. "Damn, no answer." I quickly dashed down to the car parked in the driveway. I quickly made it to Kira's house.

No…Kira…don't do anything stupid…okay? Don't…

I gave a gentle knock on the door. There was no answer. I pushed the door, and it opened up. I got in, and locked the door. Kira laid there, crying on the couch.

"Cagalli…" he starts. I went up to him.

"Kira…I know." I gave him a soft hug, pressing myself against him.

I stayed there until the next day. I was still asleep, but I felt that Kira got up. "Cagalli…"

"Um, morning…um…haha…"

"Um…thanks." He says. "You better go home, or your father's going to be worried."

"Are you going to be alright?" I asked. Kira nods, and guides me out the door.

(Athrun POV)

Vacation Villa

"Dad, about you and Uncle Siegel, is it really true?" I asked. I sat on the bright sunny day, taking a sip of my drink.

"Yes, there is a disagreement between us."

"What about our marriage?" "I guess we might have to break it."

"What?"

"I'm sorry, Athrun, but in the real world nothing is always the same as yesterday."

"Dad…" Dad walks away, and my cell phone rings. "Hello, this is Athrun."

"Athrun."

"Lacus, um, hi…what's up?"

"Something's happened to Kira, you better come back soon."

"What's wrong?"

Lacus told me everything. I was shocked. Kira cries over small things. Now that his father dies, what the heck will he do?

"Lacus, I'll come back as soon as possible, okay?"

I hung up, and spoke with my dad about leaving early.

(Kira POV)

Cagalli's here again. I guess she really is worried about anything would happen to me.

A loud noise occurred in the kitchen. "I'm so sorry!" Cagalli apologizes, as I went to see what happened in the kitchen. Two pots were on the floor. I picked them up. "It's okay…"

Cagalli was blushing a little. We then forgot about dinner and just sat down and watched TV.

The TV was showing some romance-type movies, and at the point of climax…

My head was some how getting "closer" to Cagalli's…and our lips were…moving…moving…and…almost…just a little more…

Almost there, Cagalli moves her head away. "Kira…I…" she then blushes. "I don't know how to say this, but…when I grabbed your hand…and almost…THAT…it felt like I was doing THAT…with my…FATHER."

I stayed in silence. "Well…um…let's forget about that…and do…something else." I backed up. Then there was a ring on the doorbell. I opened up, and it was Lacus.

Lacus sees Cagalli in the living room. "Um, I'm not…bothering you two…am I not?

"No, no, not at all, Lacus. Come in." I said.

All 3 of us sat down. Lacus puts down here Haro, as it jumps around the table.

Suddenly a flash…of memories came to my mind. "Crest-On….?"

"What's the matter, Kira?" Cagalli asks.

"My father told me something about a Crest-On Chest, before he died."

"Crest…On?" Lacus asks. "Maybe it means something about a chest?" "But there are hundreds of chests in his wardrobe, so…how what can I do about it?" I asked. Then, another ring was on the door. "Um, I'll go open the door." I said. I opened up.

"Kira, you alright?" Athrun just pops up in front of me.

"Well, of course…I'm alright. I'm standing here, right?"

"Well…you know…I…" "I thought you were on vacation," Cagalli pops her head from behind me.

"Well, Lacus gave me a call, and I came back as soon as possible."

"Ah, Athrun…you're back." Lacus says.

Athrun joins us in the living room. "So, what are you peoples talking about?" Athrun asks.

"Crest-On Chest." I said.

"We're thinking about what it means." Cagalli adds.

"Do you know, Athrun?" Lacus adds too.

"Crest, on, chest…is there a crest on a chest?"

"I was thinking that too, but it would take me a while to look through all those chests." I replied.

"Well, we're glad to help!" Lacus adds.

We then were looking through all the chests that were in my father's wardrobe.

During the search, there were chests EVERYWHERE. And…

(Athrun POV)

"Lacus…I spoke with my dad."

Kira and Cagalli continued to look through the chests.

"What's wrong? Don't think our fathers' disagreement will affect us."

"My father has already planned the break of our engagement…"

"Oh…I…see…"

"I'm sorry…"

"It's not your fault, exactly. You can always find a better half than me." Lacus says, and continued to search for the crest box.

(Kira POV)

It's almost morning again…tired…and… "Athrun, Athrun,"

Athrun and Cagalli was sort of tangled with each other in a bed of chests. I put a blanket on them and gave up my search. Lacus and I starred at them and giggled a little.

We both head downstairs for breakfast. "So, Athrun must have told you about our fathers."

"Yeah…but…aren't you a bit disappointed?"

"Not at all…you know…things happen, and I always have to get use to them." Lacus brushes her hair and took a sip of coffee. Woah, I'm about to bleed. She's…so..damn…pretty.

"I wish I can just be like you, Lacus. I guess that makes me envy you now…haha…"

Then there was a sudden scream in my father's room. Lacus and I quickly cut in the scene. Cagalli and Athrun were shocked that they were sleeping together…and…

Lacus picks up a box that Cagalli was pressing on. "There's a crest on this one…" and she hands it to me. I opened it up, and there was a letter and a photo.

"Hey, that's my father!" Cagalli says.

"Your father?" Athrun says, in a surprised way. In the picture was Uzumi Nara Attha holding two babies. One was a blond and the other was a brunette.

I opened up the letter and read.

Kira,

If you found this box, it means that I am not with you anymore. This is the truth about your parents. You have a sister too, and it was the girl you brought home with you. Cagalli Yula Attha. Her parents are…your parents. You still have a family. Your mother divorced with you father, took you away and died at a later time. I'm sorry this had to happen, but…this is the truth.

20XX, June 29th

"You're…my brother…?" Cagalli starts. "This…was written the date after I first came to your house…"

Cagalli…my…sister? Uzumi…my…Father?
