Chapter 5: I found you

EIEN´S POV

My friends were still talking about their fathers, I felt like I didn't belong, the bell rang and my mother was there, she had a brilliant smile on her face, she was up to something, as I recall (definitely Pai´s son) she had never smiled like that, it was comforting to see her happy again. We didn't go to our house, instead she leaded me to the park. We chatted for a while and then I saw a young man a few meters away from us, he looked so familiar…wait…the other day man…but what is he doing here and why did we stop?…

-You recognize him Eien?- said my mother –Of course mom, he is the man that handed me the ball the other day-

We approached him more and I could see his face, his face, I saw it before that day…maybe…just maybe…impossible

FLASHBACK

I was roaming through my mom's closet just for fun until I reached a big box that had a "Photos" label on it, I got curious and opened it, there, in almost every photo, appeared my mom when she was younger, she wore glasses and her hair in two long silky braids, she was wearing her uniform, in other photo, she was in front of the pink building near a nearby park, she was dressed as a maid, she told me that in her teen years she worked as a waitress in a Café. There she was, beautiful, with other girls as a recognize as Mrs. Mint dressed in blue, Mrs. Zakuro dressed in purple, Mrs. Pudding in yellow and Mrs. Ichigo in pink, Mr. Keiichirou was also there along with Mr. Ryou. Mrs. Mint married Ryou and had Kimi; Mrs Zakuro married Mr. Keiichirou and had Takeshi.

But in the latest photos, there are three other boys, Uncle Tarb is there with Uncle Kish, Tarb married Mrs. Pudding and had Tamy; Kish married Ichigo and had Eon.

But who was the other boy, he was dressed in purple and had long ears as Uncles Tarb and Kish. Mom told me they were aliens so he must be their comrade or something. There was a photo in which there was every couple mentioned, they were young, I wasn't that interested when in one of them, I saw my mom with that boy dressed in purple, they were near a lake, she was at a tree, sat beside its trunk, she was also blushing and with a shy smile, beside her there was that boy, he laid under the tree as well, he had his arms as support for his head that was resting on the trunk, he had a cold stare, but somehow I felt that I had something related to him, in the last photo, there was my mom with the boy hugging. I turned the sheet, there was no name, only a date, I had curiosity, but I never asked my mom who was he.

END PLASHBACK

His face was identical to the one of the boy's, it was him. The boy, well, he was a young adult now, maybe the same age as mother. I recall that once, when my mom caught me looking at the photo, she said that this person was very important to her, but suddenly he left. She also said that she had me very young, and my father suddenly disappeared, so this man must be…

-Eien, remember the boy in the photo?-

-Yes , of course-

-His name is Pai, and he…is your…-

-Father…you wont have to suffer because you lack a father anymore my dear son- he told me. I couldn't believe it, he was my father, and he did have proofs, his ears were like mines, well mine were smaller, but I just looked as him, indeed, without doubt, he was my dad.

I hugged him and he hugged me back, I was half alien and half human. Finally with my complete family. I could feel him smiling and his strong arms embracing me into a real parental embrace. I felt so safe.

Months later, my dad married my mom. He was dressed in an elegant black suit that must be the proper wedding suit in his home planet for groomes. And my mom was dressed in a silky white long dress, with a silky veil and everything, she looked gorgeous with her bun and little make-up. Everyone was there, my mom's friends, they were crying. Mrs. Ichigo was dressed in a party, pink dress with Eon and Uncle Kish with a suit from his home planet too. I thought that she wouldn´t come after she had problems with my dad about leaving my mom for so long, she nearly punched him that day, but Uncle Kish stopped her while my dad explained all to her...Tamy was with Mrs. Pudding, dressed in a Chinese, yellow, silky dress and Uncle Tarb with a suit that resembled Uncle Kish´s . Mr and Mrs. Akasaka were there too with Takeshi, Mrs. Zakuro was wearing a purple dress and Mr. Keiichirou a black suit. Finally but not least, there was Mrs. Mint dressed in a blue, very decorated and expensive dress and Mr. Shirogane with a white suit. Grandpa and grandma were there too, and some of my dad's relatives. And me, well, I was dressed in a dark suit brought by my father. That day was the happiest day of my childhood, I had found a dad, my lost dad.
