Chapter Twenty two: Frozen Again
Hatori and Shigure sat outside Hatori's house smoking cigarettes and making small talk. However it didn't feel that way for Hatori. ''Things are going well for you and Kana aren't they?'' Shigure asked slyly. ''I don't think our relationship is any of your buisness.'' Hatori replied. ''Fine, fine don't tell your dearest friend. I understand.'' Shigure said tearing up. ''If you were my dearest friend you'd respect my privacy.'' Hatori said thinking outloud.
''I hope we're not intruding then.'' Said a very familiar voice. Shigure and Hatori looked up. Ayame and Momiji dropped by to join in the conversation. ''Hi, Hari! What were you two talking about?'' Momiji asked. ''Hatori and Kana's relationship.'' Shigure replied bluntly. ''Are you going to propose Hari?'' Momiji asked. ''You'll have to ask Shigure that.'' Hatori replied trying very hard not to blush.
''A wedding! Oh how wonderful! Fear not Hatori for I shall make a glorious wedding for you and Kana! A wedding that only I could make!'' Ayame declared. All three Sohmas began to sweatdrop. ''Did I hear something about a wedding?'' Kana asked as she came by to join the conversation. ''Oh, we were talking about-'' Shigure almost said before Hatori gave him a look. ''The wedding of Prince Charles and Princess Diana.'' Shigure replied nervously. ''But I thought they got a divorce.'' Kana said in a confused voice. Everyone began to sweatdrop nervously. ''Kana why don't we go somewhere more private?'' Hatori suggested. ''Yes,of course.'' Kana replied. Without glancing at Shigure and Ayame Hatori walked away with Kana.
When they were out of sight Shigure and the others immediately began to talk. ''Even in front of us he shows no affection towards Kana.'' Ayame said thinking aloud. ''Hatori would never tell us that he'd propose to Kana but I wouldn't surprised if he did.'' Shigure said. ''Shigure, would you ever display public affection for me?'' Ayame asked a glitterey yellow wall appeared behind him.
''Aya, how about I express affection towards you tonight.'' Shigure proposed as a glitterey blue wall appeared behind him. ''Yes!'' Theyght said together as they put their thumbs up. Momiji sweatdropped. ''I don't think Hatori would want to be here right now.'' He thought.
Meanwhile Hatori and Kana were walking around the Sohma compound.
''Hatori, are you all right? You look like you're blushing.'' Kana asked in a concerned voice. ''I'm all right. Kana, there's something I want to ask you.'' said Hatori. Kana nodded, ready to listen to Hatori.
''Kana,will you marry me?'' Hatori asked in an unusually light tone. He had been wanting to propose for some time now but he didn't want it to be so obvious with the others. Kana's eyes grew wide with shock. She didn't expect this at all. But that that didn't mean that she didn't want a proposal at all. ''Yes! Yes I will marry you! Kana declared putting her arms around Hatori. Hatori held her close and smiled slightly.
Hatori and Kana decided that it was best that they got full permission from Akito before they got married.
They sat nervously but confidently. ''Kana and I wish to marry.'' Hatori finally said. Akito began to shake violently. ''No!'' She yelled as she broke a potterey jar. Hatori and Kana grew frightened but they couldn't move. ''I won't allow it! I refuse to allow it!'' She continued. Hatori got up almost immediately and tried to hold Akito back but she threw her fist in his right eye. ''Hatori!'' Kana cried. Hatori fell to the floor. ''Hatori?'' Akito said realizing that Hatori was hurt. Hatori didn't respond. ''Hatori,what's wrong?'' Akito asked in an unusually kind voice. Hatori just shook in pain. ''You did this! This is your fault! If Hatori loses his sight, it's your fault!'' Akito yelled. Kana was shaking with fear. Suddenly Shigure opend the door. ''Akito! Hatori!'' He cried. ''Do you think you can lift the Sohma curse! Do you?'' Akito shouted. Kana was shaking horribly,her eyes were almost blank. Shigure held Akito back and shouted:''Hatori, take Kana and get out of here!'' Hatori took Kana's hand and took her out of the room. As Akito began to release herself, Hatori locked the door behind them.
Shigure called Mayuko and told her what happened. Mayuko immediately went over to Hatori's house to find Kana crying. ''Kana, what happened?'' She asked. ''Hatori hurt his eye and it's my fault.'' She replied. Without a word Mayuko put her arms around her and held her. Meanwhile Akito and Hatori talked about erasing her memory. ''I think that Kana shouldn't live with such painful memories. If she were to forget you, she would be happy don't you think?'' She said. Hatori knew in his brain and his heart that she was right.
Kana was still crying as he began to perform the procedure. He put his hands over her eyes carefully as though she would break. ''Hatori, I'm sorry I wasn't able to protect you. Forgive me.'' She apoligized. Then it was over. Once her memory was erased she fell to the floor. ''I should apoligize. I couldn't protect you.'' Hatori thought sadly.
