Chapter Twenty-Six: Searching
With Athrun…
"Ms. Meer, can I go and have a walk outside. I promise it won't be long." He asked for her permission.
She smiled at him, "Okay, be back at one. We'll have our lunch by then."
He nodded and ran outside. As he walk past several shopping centers, he can see either a girl with a guy or a girl, a guy and a kid together and pointing at different splendid gifts.
Somehow, he felt his heartache as he saw a couple smiling at each other.
Strange.
He never really love but just like Meer. He can't remember if he had a girl friend or some sort. He can't even remember who are his parents.
He sighed and took a sit it one of the benches. He just can't remember his life…or even himself.
HE lowered his gaze and he saw someone standing before him.
"Are you Athrun Zala?" he saw the stranger standing before him, asked.
He nodded and the stranger smirked.
The stranger extended his/her hand which Athrun took, "I'm…Miguel, Miguel Aiman." He extended his hand.
The young blue-haired prince though still confused, shook Miguel's hand.
The older man sat next to him, "So what brings ZAFT's former top gun sitting around the city park's benches, ne Athrun?" he laughed lightly yet he stopped. Athrun was acting weird towards him.
Miguel sighed, "Hey Athrun, why are you acting like this. I mean…we are friends right and you're acting pretty odd."
He needed to tell the truth, "Hey mister," he stood, "First of all, I don't know you and second, we aren't friends. Lastly, I'm not from ZAFT or from any military organization or whatsoever."
This made Miguel laugh aloud which he tried to suppress, "Are you okay, Athrun?" he touched the blue-haired prince's forehead, "Or you want your mommy to help you out with your reply?"
Athrun typically rolled his eyes and started to walk away but Miguel's hand stopped him.
"I think we need some bonding time, my friend." Miguel grinned and somehow, Athrun can sense misfortune and trouble within the guy who dragged him to god knows where the place is.
With Lacus and Ezrael…
"God almighty, if ever you're up there watching my son, please grant my wife sanity and peace within her. This I ask in your name. Amen." Kira Yamato prayed.
As you can see, Kira followed the mother and son in the baseball field after doing his chores of course. Currently, he is biting all of his fingernails off in worry and fear for his own son and wife.
Why?
A simple explanation.
During the previous chapter, we had caught glimpse of a new Lacus Clyne-Yamato. From the micro miniskirt up to the strapless brassiere. So basically, Kira is afraid for his own son. He can still remember the first time he witnessed the complete transformation of his dear wife. It was all to well so to say…
Start of Flashback…
"What's going on!" Kira Yamato struggled against the multitude of people in front of their very own house. .
Luckily, Ezrael was with Cagalli and Alex so he was half relief in his predicaments. Now, the only question is…what is going on inside his house? As he can see, the crowd were all men, ranging from circumcised teens to old perverted men with their whatchamacallit sticks.
At last, he finally reached the front door. Slowly, with a tad hesitation, he held the door knob and turned it. His eyes widen due to the scene.
Did he just see his wife, former pop singer Lacus Clyne-Yamato, strip dancing in front of a crowd!
"LACUS!" he called out yet she ignored him and continued to dance and sing at the same time.
"My hump, my hump, my hump, check it out!" she sang and removed her shirt.
All of the men were drooling. They were like dogs drooling over a large piece of meat but in this case, they were drooling over the body of a hot female coordinator, Lacus.
Kira yet again struggled against the crowd and it took him ten minutes to reach the stage.
"LACUS!" he shouted her name and it made her gaze at him. Great, he got her attention, "STOP THIS!" he shouted again but she shot him a death glare and continued with the singing and strip dancing.
However, Kira Yamato can't take this any longer.
He ran to her and hugged his wife tightly, "I love you…" he whispered in her ear and it was enough to make her stop the singing and the strip dancing.
"Ki…ra…" she faced him and returned his hug, "Promise you won't leave me!"
He held both of her hands with his own hands, "I promise…I won't leave you and Ezrael ever again." He smiled gently at her and she cried for joy.
"I love you too, Kira!" she hugged him tightly as the crowd began to leave while murmuring with some comments telling that Kira was a party pooper while some are why did the guy showed up. Either way, they were satisfied with the scene.
This time, he will make sure to never make his heart fall for other women except for his dearest Lacus.
End of Flashback…
However, this was of a different situation and time period.
I pray for you my son.
Was all he can do or think about right now.
With Alex and Mark…
"You know Alex," he tried to start a conversation with her even though he was still driving their car, "Why are you so concerned about Antoine? I mean…he ain't like Ezrael, your cousin or like me, close friends. And for your information, I should be sleeping until now."
She sighed. There was no one else she can approach for some help or assistance. It can only be Mark because if it were to be Ezrael…she might only see the corpse, no, make it the ashes of Antoine. So Mark was her last hope so to say.
"Markie," she called his child pen name, "You should help me or else…" she tried to think of something to blackmail him and as she opened her purse, her lipstick gave her a marvelous idea.
"Or else what?" he asked the unfinished imposed question to him.
"Or else…" she held her lipstick, "I'll tell your dad and mom about the lipstick incident!" she warned him.
"You won't dare to!" he exclaimed and he was fearing for this day to come.
She smirked, "Oh yes, I would!"
It was his turn to sigh and agree with his friends blackmailing, "Fine, I'll help you out with less complains and accusations."
She hugged him tightly, "Thanks Markie!"
HE continued on concentrating with his driving, What's with girls and a blue-haired guy with fascinating emerald eyes? He thought.
If only he knew that this blue-haired guy with fascinating emerald eyes is something more than any other guy can see or imagine! If only he knows that this blue-haired guy with fascinating eyes is the so-called epitome of mankind.
With Meer…
It was already half past four and a certain blue-haired guy with fascinating emerald eyes was still nowhere inside her manor.
She stopped her drumming finger and grabbed her coat on her way out.
Something must have happened to him.
She thought as she started to search for him. If only she knew that other people are also searching for this blue-haired guy with fascinating emerald eyes.
Inside the Za Burrel Residence…
"Miss Shiho, this is such a great design!" Lianna, a cousin of Rey, exclaimed as she held a pink gown with a few frills and accented with some lavender sashes on the shoulder top.
Rey slapped his forehead physically and harder mentally, "Are you girls finish?"
"We aren't!" they told him at the same time and continued to try the gowns and other clothings that Shiho brought over the Za Burrel's residence.
"Hey Rey," she elbowed him on the ribs, "Aren't you happy with your cousins and your mom? Can't you see they're enjoying with the clothes I brought over?"
"For you, you are because it means money for you!" he pointed out the obvious and she giggled at his statement, "And for me it means more financial crisis with your generous prices!"
She tried to suppress her laughter, "At least these clothes make them partly happy."
He nodded in agreement, "I agree with you."
He looked at his cousins and his mother, "Are you going to find someone to make you happy until the end of time, Shiho?" he dared asked her.
She averted his gaze, "Its still a long wait for me."
"Hmm…" was all he said.
With Cagalli…
"Where is he?" she banged her fist on the other seat as she tried to lengthen her patient due to the red traffic light.
"Athrun…what have I done to you?" she asked herself and she tried to hold back the tears.
Start of Flashback…
The blue-haired prince sighed for the fiftieth time.
There supposed meeting was to start about eight in the evening but as he looked on his watch, it read, 11 p.m.
Again, he sighed and shifted his sitting position. It started raining yet there was no Cagalli in sighed. He waited for her outside the restaurant and his clothes were partly wet.
Again, he looked at his watch and it now read, 11: 07 p.m.
He stood up. There was no way that she'll show up.
In their room…
Athrun quietly slip inside the sheet of the queen-sized bed. There he saw the person he was waiting three hours ago.
There sleeping was his wife, Cagalli. He sighed and frowned.
"She forgot her promise…"
The Next Day…
"Good morning, Athrun!" she greeted him yet he ignored her perky greeting.
He rearranged the newspaper and shifted his sitting position.
She peered at the newspaper from his back, "Nothing's interesting in that section than talking with me." She commented and took her seat.
He folded the newspaper and stood, "It's better to talk with the dull and boring newspaper than talking with someone who forgets about her promise…"
He then left.
Something struck her, "I'm…sorry…"
End of Flashback
"Is that it, Athrun? If that is so…forgive me then…" she resumed her driving as the red traffic light shifted to the green traffic light.
