Chapter 27: Wedding Day
"Michi and I want to tell you something"
"Yeah we…"
"You both shut up, you'll listen first to what we have to say, then you'll talk. "
Michiru was surprised by her father's tone, she closed her mouth frightened.
"So as Sechiru has kindly exposed we'll talk first. Let's begin with what we know ok?" Sechiru nodded. "Ok let's start with the fact that Hanzo knock up the maid " Hanzo looked so surprised, Michiru took his hand. "Or better, we know that Tenoh climbs up your window…" Michiru went so pale that Hanzo thought she was going to faint. "Oh it seems we got your attention right?"
"What? No comments about it? Hanzo? Michi? Oh fine, cause we still know many others things we'll be glad to tell you about...

Zen walked back to the house after a long walk, she wasn't willing to go back and face the crossfire but the night was a bit cold and she wanted to get inside, she was entering the garden of her house when she spotted Haruka packing her things on her bright yellow convertible.
"Haruka? What are you doing?"
The blonde turn surprised to look at her friend. "Ah...I'm back to Tokyo Zen, I've seen enough, I'll catch the night ferry boat, thanks for everything I'll see you when you get back"
"But Haruka..."
"Nothing ties me down here, I'll go back to pick my things from the campus I'll see you in a few days..."
"No, wait Haruka..." Haruka climb into the car and drive away before Zen could stop her. "Wait! She loves you! Wait...damn you Tenoh! Come back here!"
----------------------o----------------o---------------
"I can explain it dad..."
"No you cannot and I don't want to hear you trying Michiru, we thought and I say we cause I'm sure Hatchi backs me up with this...that you were adults that you were resposable and would be able to make the right choices, obviously we were wrong"
"Sneaking around like thiefs, violating our trust, dishonoring your families...is this the way we have thought? Is this how we raise you?
"That's right, neither of you seem able to decide what's best for you so we've come to decide that we'll chose for you"
"The company merge won't be stopped just because you two decided to play along with your futures..."
Hanzo stood up facing his father, his fist clentched, his expession angry."You cannot do that father, we are not kids, Michiru and I've come to a decision...I love Maeve and I intend to marry her"
"Yeah, we want to call off the wedding" Michiru stood up too.
"You'll do as we said for once and that's all... now sit down and listen...this is what you're going to do step by step..."
---------------------------o---------------o-------------
Michiru came out of the library feeling strange, she was not in her best moment but she needed to talk to Haruka right away, before it was too late, she knocked on her door but no one answered so she opened the door slowly, the room was silent. Haruka was gone.
She rushed downstairs and ran into Zen.
"Where is she Zen?"
"She left Michi I couldn't stop her..."
"She left? How could she? I need to see her"
"We'll catch the morning Ferryboat"
"No we can't, I can't leave, at list before the wedding"
"Wedding? What the hell! Weren't you suppose to call it off? So there's going to be a wedding?"
"Oh Zen I have so much to tell you about... I need your advise once more ...so many things I need to tell you..."
"Well it's a long night so start talking dear..."
--------------------o----------------o------------------
The morning was bright, a soft sweet smell flooded the air. The night before she could barely sleep, she stayed up all night thinking how her future would be...would she be happy? Would they regret getting married? What if this was the worst mistake she would ever make? The sunrise surprise her and she couldn't believe she was actually getting married that day.
The soft silky fabric of the white dress mark every one of her curves, she touch the silk over and over her fingers dancing through the pearls embroidered to it, she saw herself in the mirror once more convincing herself this was not a dream, it was the reality, she was the one in the white dress, the one with the elaborated hair do...the bride.
"You look beautiful"
A tear rolled down her face but she wiped away, she was not turning back, this was her fate. The path she was destinated to walk through. She placed the white veil down her face. And after placing it right she walked downstairs to meet her destiny.
Hanzo was nervous, he was dress with a white tux, his hands were sweating, he knew things were going to be alright but he couldn't help to feel scared, when he saw the bride walking down to him, it seemed that time stopped, this was it...
Everyone turned to look at her, she walked slowly raising her head, she looked proud, she knew there have been a lot of gossiping, rumours about Haruka, about this wedding, every guest that had been invited was here watching, not for her or for Hanzo they were here whispering about this wedding being a mistake for all of them but she didn't cared anymore...
The ceremony was brief, everyone hold their breath when the minister asked if there was a reason to stop the ceremony but nothing happened, no one avoided this union...the newlyweds kissed each other with the sunset on their backs, hoping to be strong enough and happy enough...
------------o----------------o----------
Michiru looked at the ocean on the horizon, her heart was feeling restless, but she had made her mind and she was following her plans for once...
"Are you ready to go dear?"
"Yes, let's go..."
