Hello everyone, I'm here with a KaiHil oneshot. The plot is basically inspired by a song *laughs nervously*
I got the idea from a Bollywood song, actually it's a single not from any movie.
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters used in this story.
So now without any blabbering, let the story begin ;)
The artistic golden sun got up like a baby and painted the dark black night sky into a bright blue sky. The bright looking milky clouds got up from sleep and started travelling around the sky visiting the wonderful environment. Fresh windy cool and crispy air started whistling like a invisible ghost. The red and green in colour birds with chilli like beak started twitting their morning melody. The enormous garden stood like a royal palace and the thick dried strong brown big branches danced welcoming the morning. The green brown beautiful countless leaves whispered to each other about their morning plans. The small colourful, cute butterflies danced all around the environment looking for sweet nectar. The flowers' fragrance filled the whole environment, making the morning pleasant. There, standing at her second floor window, a brunette was warm heartedly welcoming the new day. Her milky white skin bathed in the pure rays of the sun and her ruby blues glistened seeing how beautiful nature can be. Chocolate locks blew in the direction of wind making her appear like a goddess. She enjoyed staying close to nature because it pacified her soul. But unfortunately she couldn't spend the entire day admiring nature.
Hillary Tachibana was now a successful singer in Japan. Over the years she has pursued her dream made quite a stand in the music industry. She had admirers and fans all over the country and some even abroad. Her angelic voice could make tears come out of a person's eyes as well as bring up a smile on a person's face. She had won the heart of lakhs but somehow her own heart was cracked. Fortunately she had a friend in need, Tyson Granger, her assistant, who always took care of her and the two were like siblings from another mother.
"Hey Hillary, you ready?"
"Yes a bit left."
"Ok hurry up you have the concert at 12 at a business meeting."
"I remember Ty."
"Did you try..."
"No Tyson. I didn't and I won't, my life has moved on."
"Oh sorry but I just asked because you used to that's why.."
"It's okay Tyson."
"By the way where's our little Prince?"
"He is ready and is playing in the garden with Charm."
"Hillary he is small.."
"Charm keeps good eye on him than a human does. So hakuna matata"
The navy blue haired guy giggled at her words.
"Wait downstairs I'm coming."
The navy blue haired guy left the room leaving the brunette to prep herself for her concert.
After completing her attire she looked herself in the mirror. Her chocolate hair was waved up and side parted, held in place by a pearl clip. The winged liner on her ruby eyes made them more enhanced. She wore baby blue tube neck long dress with a split at the left side. It was a plain and simple satin dress but she made it look more elegant. Pairing her look with golden strapy heels, she was ready to go. But every time she dressed up memories of a certain someone came hovering to her mind.
Flashback:
The college campus was crowded with teachers and students from various semesters. The front lawn area was bounded by small bushy plants, making it a perfect place for students to sit and gossip during their lunch times. The main building was five storeyed and a long corridor in the down which led to the conference hall and the staircases which led to the classroom upstairs. There, in the lawn area, sitting on the a stool the 17 year old brunette was playing a soft music on a cello. It felt as if her inner voice was transferred into the cords of the cello and it was singing. The crowd of students who gathered around praised her with their applause and claps. All of a sudden a pair of strong yet soft hands closed her eyes, causing her to stop the music. She immediately understood whose hands it where and smiled. The dual hair boy who had closed her eyes from behind, was confident enough that she won't recognise him, but he didn't understand that by his touch her heart melted and it was unique to her.
"Kai?" The smirk on the lips of the blunette faded as soon as she called out his name. He removed his hands from her and fake frowned,
"Ah shit. Again. How do you do this Hils?"
She placed her cello carefully on the ground and turning to him she spoke,
"I can identify you even in a crowd of thousand people."
"I know so I have a gift for you."
"What gift?" The slate blue haired guy kneeled on his left leg and opened a box of diamond ring in front of her. Then he uttered the golden words.
"I love with my heart and soul Hils, will you marry me?"
Hearing his words full of love, the brunette was overjoyed. She jumped out of excitement and replied in a hyper tone,
"Oh yes Kai, of course I'll marry you."
She was on the heavens, never in her life had she felt so happy. The blunette put the ring on and got up.
Everybody present around cheered for engaged couple but a certain navy blue haired's excitement was on another level. He burst party poppers on them in happiness.
"Woohoo Hils and Kai are engaged! Woohoo I'm the most happiest person on earth alive! My best friends will be getting married!"
The couple smiled at each other and blushed.
'That was when he had proposed me, my happiest day. But my life had changed on the day of my wedding.'
Flashback II:
The ruby eyed teen was sitting in her dressing room completely dressed up and excited for her wedding. She wore a white fishtail gown with golden lining at the borders, hugging her figure perfectly. A pearl necklace embellished her neck and two droplet earings dangled from her ears, perfecting her total appearance. A long white veil was attached to her brown hair completed her look as a bride. Looking at her watch she decided to call to Tyson, whether she should go to the aisle or not.
"Hello Ty? Should I come?"
"Hillary actually a problem has arrived."
"What problem? Tyson listen let all problems go in vain, it's my wedding say me when to come there." She wanted to focus only on her wedding today and nothing else.
"Hils Kai hasn't arrived yet."
"What?" She yelled in surprise almost making Tyson go deaf. She was now feeling scared, her fiancé hadn't arrived yet. Still managing to keep herself calm she said,
"Tyson try calling him. He maybe on the road you know."
"Hils we have. Everytime we called they either say switched off or invalid number. Till now we have tried calling him at least 20 times."
"Tyson what are saying like crazy! Maybe his phone died and his other number?"
"Same Hils."
"Cut the call I'm trying."
She quickly cut Tyson's call and trying hard not to panic, the brunette dialled Kai's every possible number but same, just like the navy blue haired boy said, either switched off or invalid number.
"Kai where are you?" She ran out of her room and paced in the direction of the chapel. Everything there was decorated with delicacy. Soft coloured flowers embellished the columns of the church. The aisle on which she was supposed to walk today had petals of rose scattered over and the guests they had invited to witness their wedding had also arrived. She wanted their wedding to be elegant but simple and he had fulfilled her each and every wish.
Noticing her the navy blue haired rushed to her,
"Hillary!"
"Ty where is he ty?"
"I..I.." The dragoon wielder stammered realising he had no words to console her.
Bursting into tears and kneeling to floor she asked like a kid,
"How could he do this Tyson? I loved him with my heart and soul and he.."
Getting frustrated she stood up, took out the engagement ring he had given to her and threw it away..
'Its almost three years and after that day he was never seen. Tyson had searched for him even after I disagreed but no trace. Maybe he wanted to start a new life in somewhere new even after leaving, he left a part of to me.'
Indeed her life is different now. She is the mother of a 2 year old boy and has to single handedly carry out her responsibilities as a mother as well as work as a singer. Just the day after her wedding was supposed to happen, she got to know she was pregnant with his child. But she didn't abort the child, rather she decided to live for it.
Hillary was now sitting in her car with Tyson and her son, Gou and was heading for a private concert. It was more like a party but since she had nothing to do today, she decided to take the offer.
"Hils we have arrived."
"Hmm ok Ty."
"Mommy mommy whre we?"
"Gou I said you na, I have a concert today."
"Yu'll sing song mommy?"
"Yes dear I'll."
"Yay!"
The two year old hugged his mother. He loved hearing his mother sing. But he was a epitome of his father. He got the same complexion, the same dual toned hair and the same face, except for his eyes, which were two big oval rubies, just like his mother.
"Our little Prince loves you so much and still Hils you are thinking about him, right?"
"Ye..no..no I was just.."
"Well you can't lie to me. You will never move on I know but at least for now focus on the song you are going to sing."
"You're right."
A while later they parked the car and walked into the party lawn. By appearance it seemed that a billionaire had booked the place. A long pathway covered by a red carpet led to the central lawn. There were marble white tables arranged for the guests and in the centre there was an enormous stage surrounded by steps at the back where all the musicians like drummers, flutists and violinists and pianists were standing with their instruments in a arranged way. The sides of the stage was decorated with orchids and a tall silver coloured mic was kept at the centre stage. Tyson, Hillary and Gou walked through the pathway and reached the tables, where Hillary was greeted by some of her fans. All of them had been either asking a for picture or an autograph.
"Hillary you stay here and talk with your fans, I'm going to meet Mr. Valkov."
"Ok Tyson."
A bit later, when Hillary had gone more or less, Tyson came back followed by a redhead man and and twin haired woman. They looked foreigners by their looks which she easily understood.
"Hillary this is Tala Valkov, he is the one who asked you to sing here. He is a Russian scientist and is here in this country for some work."
"Hello Mr. Valkov, nice to meet ya.
Me too Miss Tachibana. You have made quite a name in the music industry, it's an honour to have you here."
"Pleasure's all mine. Oh and meet my son, Gou." The little boy was hiding behind his mother, scared of all the new people.
"Gou darling, come out. Everyone's a goodie here."
"Eryone a goody mamma?"
"Yes honey." Getting assurance from his the mother, the little boy came out of his hiding and said cutely,
"Helllo I'm Gou."
"Aww such a cutie baby boy you are." The Spaniard exclaimed but the redhead was amazed by how he looks, he reminded him of someone. Despite the doubt ,he greeted the kid and decided to save the question for later.
"And Hillary this is Julia Fernandez Valkov, Mr. Valkov's wife." Tyson introduced her to a Spanish beauty, probably by her same age with orange bangs and long brown hair. Her emeralds eyes just added an extra ecstasy to her appearance.
"Nice to meet you Mrs Valkov."
"Ya same goes for you and call can me Julia. I've heard each of your songs, Miss Tachibana they are heart touching."
"Thank you Julia."
Tala and Tyson left the girls alone and went on to their work talks. Julia made Hillary feel quite welcome and both became fast friends.
"So Hillary, your performance is up, I'll see you later."
"Yes and would you mind taking care of Gou?"
"It will be a pleasure after all he is such a nice kid." Throughout the time his mother was talking with Julia the little boy sat on a chair and quietly listened to their talks, though he understood none and perfectly matching his father's quiet nature.
"Gou darling mamma will now sing a song up there ok? So stay with Aunt Julia for a while."
"Ok mamma."
Hillary walked towards the central stage but in a glimpse noticed a familiar dual toned hair. She immediately turned in the direction and went awestruck by his sudden appearance. He wasn't looking at her, he was talking with some men in black suits.
"Kai.." She gasped in inner pain. After so many years she was seeing him, he hadn't changed still, he was still the same tall, muscular and handsome. His slate blue hair was still styled in the same way. But didn't he know she was coming here? Maybe he had but didn't care. Gathering all her courage, she decided to greet him. So she went forward, extended her hand and said,
"Hello Mr. Hiwatari." Without even looking at her he returned the handshake and continued to talk with the men. Hillary felt her heart bleed. Pain ran through her entire body, her mind yelled to her but she somehow pacified her soul and climbed on the stage. Today she decided to sing her heart out, tunes will express and vocals will impress. As the musicians started to play the music, people took their seats to listen to her heartmelting voice. With a deep breath she took the cello in her hands and sat down on the stool. Then she sung ;
Why did you forget that day, my love?
Why forgot that night of ours?
First you forgot me my love
Then my name became history too.
Don't you remember anything?
Come and kill me then
What was my fault you say?
Why you leave me apart?
The first time we met
Did you forget the first kiss of ours too?
First you forgot me then you forgot my name too.
Without you oh soulmate my life is messed,
My condition is like that.
Like a fish out of water I'm suffering,
Every moment in life I'm craving for you.
My life changed like day and night!
Hey Christ my life is now this.
Say, what did I do?
To suffer like this alone.
For you I accepted what the world said,
By time I forgot the blemish given by you too;
Why did you forget the days of love?
Why forgot that evening too?
Without you, crying, I let my life take on
You don't remember me my love but,
Your scents mixed with my nerves
'Cuz still I belong to you
Recalling me was your only task,
But you forgot this small task too
First you forgot me then forgot my name too...
Everytime she hit the high notes the crowd cheered. When the song ended, people stood up and applauded the marvellous performance. Among them a certain blunette was confused, memories came rushing to his mind one after another and unable to bear it, he jolted up. He tried to walk away from the noisy place and find some calmness but unfortunately he tripped over and his black glasses fell off. He searched for them by using his hands over the floor but couldn't get it. A pair of soft hands landed on his left shoulder and pulling his hands, she placed the spectacles on his palm. She was now surprised by his condition. She thought he was living a happy life without her but it was not true. He lost his vision. But when and how? Questions came hovering her mind.
On the other side who the redhead was having a conversation with Tyson, suddenly noticed Kai on the floor. He got worried and rushed out to him, confusing everyone.
"Kai!" He came to Kai and made him sit on a bench so that he can get a while, to which unable to hold back her questions the brunette asked,
"You know him Mr. Valkov?"
"Of course I do. He is my friend Kai Hiwatari, he stays with me at Russia. Why, do you know him?"
Tyson had arrived there and awestruck to see his long ago best friend. He had no vision, which was very difficult for him to believe.
On the other hand the brunette was into tears. She dropped in front of Kai, held his hands and said in a very emotional tone,
"Kai..you..how and why did you leave me, Kai? You don't remember me?"
"I know this voice somehow Tala."
"Miss Tachibana what are you saying?"
She wiped her tears and stood up,
"Mr. Valkov how do you know him? I mean where did you meet him?"
"Like three years ago, I came to Japan. I was returning from a nightwalk to my own hotel and suddenly saw him lying in an alleyway. He was beaten somehow and his head was heavily bleeding, probably due to getting hit by a rod or something. I took him to the hospital only to find that due to that head injury he had lost more than half of his memory and vision. A card in his pocket said his name and since was unable to remember anything and the spot where he was hit was a very sensitive one and Julia insisted me to take him with us for treatment. I brought him to Russia and did his treatment with the help of my friends who are neurological doctors. He now can see but that too is very little and without specs he again goes blind. A bit of his memory has also returned."
"Kai.."
"Tala who is she, her voice seems very familiar to me."
"Kai I'm Hillary, your Hils. You are recognising my voice, you can remember me too Kai. Try a bit."
Kai closed his eyes in an attempt to remember anything and a lot of voices spoke inside his head. In between them he found someone named Hils. He was calling someone by the name.
"Yes the name is ringing in my head but I can't exactly remember."
A flood of waterworks descended down the rubies of the brunette, seeing which the 2 year year old who was watching all these from a distance ran to his mother to console her.
"Mamma wy are yu crying?"
"Gou honey." She hugged her son tight and sobbed.
"Kai you really don't remember us? I'm Tyson you're best friend."
"No."
"One second why does Gou look exactly like Kai?"
"Because he is Kai's and Hillary's son."
"What? You mean Hillary is his wife?"
"Not exactly. Kai didn't attend the wedding because of what you told happened on the night before their wedding."
"Ohh."
Suddenly, the dual haired blunette clutched his head out of pain which made the brunette leave her son's embrace.
"Kai!" All exclaimed in unison.
"Kai you ok?"
"Kai?"
Memories which were buried deep down his head were now trying to pop out. The blunette gasped in pain unable to bear so many people all of a sudden. But he remembered. He identified the name Hils. That name..it was of the person he loved the most, it was of the person who came to visit him, hazily in his dreams. He was supposed to get married to her but then the night..the hoodlums had attacked him for money. He gave them that. But still they beat him and took his symbol of love, the engagement ring of his. He jolted up and began calling out loudly,
"Hils? Hils?"
Hearing him utter her name, she was overjoyed. He had finally remembered her. She holded his hands and said,
"Kai I'm here, right in front of you. You remembered me?"
"Of course I did. That voice had always rung up in my head but finally I got a hold of it. My Hils.."
He pulled her in embrace and both sobbed. After a long separation, god had finally brought them in front of each other. Leaving the embrace she went up to her son who was hiding behind Tyson and brought him in front of Kai.
"Kai..our son, Gou."
"I have a son Hils?" The amethyst eyed young man chuckled.
"You do and he looks just like you." She helped him touch his son's little face. He was a father, he had found his love, nothing else was there for him to care about.
"Gou won't you greet your daddy?"
"He is mah daddy mamma?"
"Yess.." The little boy hugged his father for the first time in years and his mother joined him from behind. At last they had been united, their family has become one. Their true love had found a way to come back to them..
