Chapter 2: Forgotten parent

Eien arrived to his classroom. He headed toward the closet and left his backpack on it, then he went and sat on a table along with his friends: they were Kimi Shirogane, Takeshi Akasaka, Eon Momomiya, Tamy Fong and him, Eien Midorikawa.

-How are you Eien-chan?- asked Tamy with her bubbly attitude and bright smile –Fine, thank you- replied Eien

Then the teacher spoke…

-Hi kids-, -Hi Mrs. Kusaragi-, -I have important news for you children, tomorrow will be Fathers´ Day and I would like you to invite your parents to celebrate here at school, I'll give you the appointment sheet, when your parents come for you, give it to them Ok?- -Ok-

Mrs. Kusaragi handed a sheet to everyone, when one of them reached Eiens hands, he just stared at it deeply, thinking…

Fathers´ Day, but…I don't know my father…I wonder how my mother will react to this´

That day was the longest to Eien, he just thought about it, he had never known his father, he has always lived with his mother and she doesn't mention him a lot, in fact, she never mentions him. The bell that marks the ending of the day sounded, the little ones ran out from their classrooms and got out to meet with their parents cheerfully, Eien was the only one that walked slowly, his friends caught him and asked him what was up…

-Oi Eien-chan, what's up with ya?- asked Eon

-What?…oh nothing it is just that…never mind-

-Tell us Ei…-

-Eon! COME HERE- said a pink haired woman

-My mom arrived, gotta go bye!-

After he left, the others´ parents showed up, Eien was relieved that no one was asking him anymore and then he spotted his mother and ran to her.

-Hello sweetie-, -Hi mom- -How was school?- -Fine- -Ok then, come we have to go-

They arrived to their house and Lettuce started cooking dinner.

-Here you have, O-Nigiri, your favorite-, -Yeah…- -Eien?-, -Yes?- -Are you feeling OK?., -Yes, why?-, -well I see that you are kind of serious and quieter this afternoon-, -Im feeling well, don't worry-, -OK-

There was a long silence between them and Eien was thinking in whether telling his mom about his father or not, then, his curiosity gave the best of him…

-Mom?-, -Hai?- she said looking at her plate and eating, Eien debated in his mind again and he decided to ask her, what could happen after all?

-Where's my father?- Lettuce nearly choked and she looked at her son surprised –What?-, -Where is my father?- Lettuce was stunned, how in the world could she get to explain all of her past to him, -Why do you ask Eien, -Well, tomorrow is Fathers Day and Mrs. Kusaragi gave us an invitation to go to school and celebrate it there-, -Oh- -But I remembered that I haven't seen my father since ever- -Eien…I- -Where is he?- -Eien, sweetie, I…it is very complicated to explain, I'll tell you when you grow up- -But the party is tomorrow and I bet that all of my friends will show up with their fathers- -I'm sorry Eien, but I can't explain it to you, not yet- -But…- -Now finish your dinner and start your homework-

Eien did as her mother said. Lettuce was disturbed by this sudden question from her boy. They finished eating and she did the dishes and fixed the kitchen. Eien went upstairs and did his homework. Lettuce then told him to take a bath. He did.

That night, while little Eien slept, Lettuce was turning and turning on her bed trying to find Dreamland, she thought and thought about him all over again. Why should this happen to them, both were happy and suddenly he had to leave, leaving her alone when she needed him the most. Now her son came up with a question that gave rebirth to past and painful events. How in the world could she explain what she did long ago? She was afraid that that day was coming, and that day would be tomorrow. In all her confusion finally, she got to sleep.

Far…far away…….

A young man was walking around his military base, thinking about the events of the past days, he had had a meeting with his superior, he had to train his whole army himself, he had to solve several math problems and calculus, and he had to do a research for some new kind of disease that was hunting down his people. He sat across from his computer, he couldn't find what he was looking for until, in a moment of exasperation, he accidentally pressed a random button and a huge file list appeared, dazed, he began looking on them, he checked every single file until he hit a certain one, it was old. Curiously, he opened it and a huge profile list appeared, he looked closely and he found out that the profiles listed there, were the Mew's profiles. He thought he had erased it long time ago but he was shocked when he saw a certain green haired girl's along with her photo. His world collapsed on him with a loud crash, he remembered it all, how he fought her, mercilessly and type of Blitzkrieg, and later what both of them did after receiving orders about returning to his home planet.

He was lost in his thoughts that he didn't hear the beeping sound of his computer until the volume rose. He quickly opened the message, it was a reminder, tomorrow was Fathers day on Earth. He wondered how could a message from earth got to reach his Internet lines, just a grammatical mistake, he thought, but then, a sudden memory came to his head crashing with his brain. What was left of his realm was destroyed inside his mind. Tomorrow, he needed to go to Earth, he ought to see some people and fix some problems.

HE HAD TO BE ON EARTH BY MORNING, so he quickly made up a journey bag and teleported to Earth.

The young man appeared in a forest at the back of a certain pink building in ruins, he just ignored it and went to someplace after figuring out that it was better if he didn't stay with anyone. He had been so careful not to draw attention that he dressed like a human and headed toward a large skyscraper that he knew very well. The man walked through an alley and teleported to the top of the building, he opened an iron gate and entered. The place looked as if it remained abandoned for years, sure it was but it wasn't that amount of years. He went to a control panel and clicked on some buttons, the place lighted up, "My system is still working" he thought proudly. He left some information written on the screen and headed toward a room, his room. He dusted off his bed and climbed onto it, he did need rest, tomorrow would be one of his toughest days ever.

Morning arrived with heavy rain clouds, around sun rise, it started to rain on the city of Tokyo, back to the Midorikawa house, a woman and her son were eating breakfast peacefully.

-Eien…- -Hai mom?- -I just wanted to tell you that I´ll be here for you whenever you need me ok?- -yes mom- -Okay, now hurry up and prepare for school-

They got out and headed toward the child´s school, then she ran to college, she was late and had a presentation due that morning. With the kids:

-My father will come here and he'll be the best!- claimed Kimi

-Oh yeah, well my mommy says that your father is just a showing off, cheap man that never gave her a raise when she deserved it- said Eon, -You'll see that my dad will be the best and he'll show your father who's the boss around-

-Both of you are wrong- responded Tamy- My dad is the coolest dad ever in the whole universe's history-

-Your father is not the coolest dad ever Tamy, it is mine, he is so polite and a gentleman, and although he gets along with Mr. Shirogane, my dad is better, he does have manners-

-No it is mine-

-Mine!-

-Hey what is up with Eien, he haven't spoke and claimed that his father is better than ours-

-Yeah, but you guys know him, he doesn't show off around-

-Just like your father does all the time-

-Yeah…hey what are you saying?-

-Just the truth-

-You meanie….-

-Yeah so?-

-Takeshi is like his mother, Mrs. Zakuro, so rude and bold-

-Yeah…-

-Hey Eien, what is up with you, why don't you speak about your dad?-

-….-

-Hey, Im taking to you-

-Just leave me alone I don't want to talk about it-

-Why, are you afraid that my father will beat yours?-

-Ha, your father?…beating someone, yeah right, Mr. Keiichiro is so respectful that he wouldn't dare touching a fly-

-Well, he certainly has his moments you know, now leave-

-Fine…-

-So Eien, tell me why aren't you betting that your father is the best?-

-Leave me alone Takeshi, all of you, just leave me alone, I don't talk about him because he is not going to come to the party ok!-

-Woah, chill, he just asked…-

-Well this certainly doesn't concern you at all so leave me alone-

-You guys know why is Eien acting as if he were ashamed of his father?-

-Mmmm no-

-Something is going on here pals-

-Yeah but you heard Eien, it is his business anyway, our guesses will be relieved this night at the party-

After school, Lettuce picked up Eien and headed toward their house, the path to their home was silent and awkward. The reached their destiny and Lettuce quickly put herself to make supper. She tried to take off her mind from that day so special and some kind painful for her and her son. Eien was already on the table when food was ready. Lettuce served him his ration of rice and both started to eat.

-All of my friends´ parents will be at the party tonight- said Eien out of nowhere –Do you want to go?- asked Lettuce –For what, I don't see any sense of going to it, why would I go?- -To see your friends- she replied hoping she hadn't hurt him, she was willing to not cause so much pain to her beloved son –They'll be busy showing off about how cool their fathers are- he said with a little bit of chuckling, she smiled, -Mom, how is my father, I really want to know- Lettuce immediately blushed deep red but answered him with a smile –Well, your father is a very intelligent man, he is strong (I wont tell him that he was a former enemy of mine), very handsome and sweet, he is also very serious, cold, emotionless and quiet, and with a laid-back and calm attitude, but he is also very impulsive, loyal and sometimes he can get so violent-,-Sounds like a role model father, mom- he said with sarcasm- And how did you meet him?- -(I cant tell him that he was a cyniclon, how, how HOW!) It was near a laboratory of butterfly species, he was goofing around and causing trouble and then I kind of stopped him, from that moment, I can say that we got to see us a lot, he was you know, causing more trouble and we happened to cross on our ways-she said sweat dropping –So he was a rebel?- said Eien with sparkling eyes –You could say that- -Wow so my father was really cool, I wonder if he is still like that, I want to know him, where is he mom?- -He is far away Eien-

Eien quieted, and a long, awkward silence replaced the conversation, his face shadowed and he asked…

-He doesn't care about us, does he?- -Why do you say that sweetie?- she asked hurt and worried about her fragile son- -He isn't here, with us, he just abandoned us, didn't he?-

-Don't say that sweetie, Im sure that he had to leave because it was the best- -Yeah…-

The afternoon came and the house was silent, Lettuce searching for some Genetic diseases and Eien just staring outside his window, he glanced at the clock, 7:30, the party had begun a long time ago.

-Want to go for a while?-, he turned back to the door, there was his mother standing looking concerned and with a sad smile on her lips. He didn't want to go, he didn't want to stand his friends talking about what he hadn´t. He moved his head negatively. Lettuce´s smile faded and she suggested to go to the park. Eien agreed and went to the park, Lettuce gave him permission to play on the nearby swings and while he swinged, she read a book, suddenly her cell phone rang.

-Hello?-

-Hey Lettuce it is me, Ichigo-

-Oh hi, Momomiya-san-

-Hahaha, stop calling me that way, Lettuce, we are friends-

-Okay Ichigo-

-So how are you?-

-Fine, I guess-

-Are you coming to the party at the school?- she asked, knowing the answer

-Um…I rather not, Eien doesn't want to go-

-Oh yeah I remembered it…want to talk about it Lettuce, you know, about what this day reminds us?-

-I don't feel like it-

-Are you okay?-

-Yes, thank you-

-Sure?-

-Yes, thanks for worrying about us-

-No problem-

-Yes…-sigh

-You'll be okay Retasu-chan, you'll get over it-

-I still love him Ichigo-

-I know-

-I still dream about him, I even see him sometimes, Eien just reminds me of him so much-

-Eien is like his father, isn't he?-

-Yes, he is a lot like him-

-Okay, I have to go, if you want to talk about something, just call Lettuce, and we will help you-

-Thank you Ichigo, you are a real good friend-

-Your welcome, bye-

-Bye-

Both hang.

At the party…

-So how is she?-

-She sounded so hurt Mint-

-Who could blame her, he just left her, that bastard-

-I know Zakuro but I have a feeling that this is not over yet…-

-Well I hope everything gets fixed, she has suffered so badly, maybe he has suffered too-

-He? Suffered, yeah right-

-Who knows-

-He left her Pudding, and never returned when Kish and Tart did, so he doesn't care-

-Im sure and I can bet that he cares, a lot Onee-chan-

-He better…-

Back at the park

Eien swinged back and forth, enjoying the wind playing with his dark hair. He got bored and went for his ball. Lettuce gave it to him and he went to play with it, kicking and doing tricks with the red ball.

The man was walking through the park, he hadn't had the courage to go and see his family, he just couldn't face them and look at their eyes, it was just so difficult, after all these years disappeared and suddenly showing up and destroying a harmony that might had lived after he left. What if he showed up and freaked out her, what if he disturbed a balanced made with a lot of effort from her, what if she was married to another man, he could spoil a lot of things accomplished by now with his only presence, maybe he should return, and leave the situation like this. So much pressure, angst and confusion, he could easily take them, but this time was more than he could handle. He sat down on a bench watching the life passing by, when suddenly, he saw a dark blue haired boy playing happily with a small ball, he got closer to see him better, some kind this boy seemed to resemble to him, he had a feeling in his heart that this boy was very special. Then he saw his eyes, emerald color, he had only saw that eyes on a single person, her. Was it possible, the boy had light and fair skin, dark hair, emerald eyes and ears slightly pointed, indeed, this boy was something of him, who knows, he could be his son. He quickly started to figuring out where his mother was, but it was pushed aside when the ball came to him. The boy ran up to it, he was getting closer and closer. He is approaching, the man thought. He kneeled down and picked up the ball…

-Is this yours?-

-Y-yes-

Then the boy reached to him, the man handed him his toy looking at him in the eyes and smiling softly, the boy grabbed it, also with eye contact and then smiled too, this man gave him a feeling of safety.

-Thank you sir-

-Your welcome-

Lettuce got her eyes from her book to check on Eien, she startled when she didn't saw him and quickly got off the bench and started to look for him, until she spotted him near a man, why does he look so familiar, wait, it is him.

-Pai-

Her motherly protective instincts gave the best of her and shouted the boy's name and ran up to where the two boys where.

-Eien, come here now!-

-My mom is calling me, I have to go, good bye sir, thanks-

Pai watched him leave and then glanced at the female voice, it was her, Lettuce, and she didn't look happy.

-EIEN, COME HERE NOW!-

When he got near, she took his hand and quickly pulled him to their house after taking her book. By the time she had done it, Pai was just some meters away. She looked at him enraged and then…

-Come on Eien, lets go home- she said at the edge of tears ,-Why?-,-Because I say so, come on!- she dragged him and he glanced to Pai, that was just looking at them coldly. –Don't look back Eien!-, -What's wrong with you mom, why are you so angry?-,-Forgive me Eien, next time Ill take care of you better, forgive me please- she said while tears ran down her cheeks –Mom, why are you crying, did I do something worng?-,-….-, -Is it because I was talking with that man?- her instincts exploded –You shouldn't talk to strangers Eien, I have told you that several times-,-But he was gentle he didn't hurt me, he just gave me my toy-, -Obey Eien, don't do that ever again-

With that, they arrived to their house while in the distance a certain alien just smirked and left to his hideout.

Pai thought that Lettuce was more gorgeous than he remembered, this time, her hair wasn't fix anymore in braids, she had it into a bun with some strands of her silky hair loose in front of her face. She still had her lenses but they were smaller and her eyes were a little narrower.
