Kairi POV
I open my eyes and turn to lay on my back. My hand lands next to me and I realize no one is next to me. I look over and see that he isn't in the room. I get up and go out into the hall. I walk towards the kitchen and I find him cooking something. I watch him for a second. He turns around and sees me.
"Ah, Asumi, baby. How are you feeling? Did you sleep well?"
"I'm fine Daddy. I slept well."
"That's good to hear. Sit down at the table. I'm almost done making dinner."
"Ok Daddy." I sit down at the table and soon enough he sets a plate down in front of me.
"Stir fry?"
"That's right baby. And, no sesame seeds in yours."
"You remembered?"
"Of course baby. How could I forget? We don't want you having an allergic reaction now do we?"
"No Daddy."
We sit there and eat in silence. Once I finish, I turn to him.
"Daddy?"
"Yes, baby?"
"Do you know what day tomorrow is?"
"Hmm. No. What?"
"Tomorrow is my birthday Daddy."
"Is it now?"
"Yes, Daddy. You forgot?" My eyes start to tear up.
"I'm sorry baby. I must not have been paying attention to the date. Please don't cry. You know how much Daddy hates seeing you cry. How can I make it up to you? Do you want a new dress? How about a cake?"
"If I get a new dress, do I get to pick it out?"
"Sure, baby. Anything for you my darling."
"Yay. Can we go today?"
"Now?"
"Yeah."
"It's almost night time. Most stores close soon."
"Oh. Ok."
"Don't worry baby. First thing in the morning, we'll go out. We'll get you a new dress and we'll pick out a cake. Ok?"
"Ok Daddy. Thanks. You're the best Daddy."
"How about we clean up these dishes and go play some more?"
"Sure Daddy."
Kyoya POV
It's been 12 hours. He still hasn't found her. How long is it gonna be? At this rate, we're never gonna find her. She'll be lost forever. No. I can't think like that. I will find her. I will rescue her.
My phone rings.
"Hello?"
"Kyoya?"
"Ah, hello. Have you found her?"
"I think I have a lead. This guy, Nicholas Dogooder, had a cell mate in prison. We got the American government interrogate him, and it seems that Nicholas planned on starting with a new name. He said Nicholas had chosen the name Jack Smith for when he got out of prison. I have my people running the name now to see if we catch anything. I'll let you know as soon as we get more information."
"Thank you. I really appreciate this."
"Don't mention it. Get some sleep. You're gonna need your strength for when we find her."
"Thanks. I will."
I hang up. I call Tamaki and fill him in. After, I decide to take a shower.
I get out of the shower and dry off. He's right. I should get some sleep. I can't help her if I'm not rested. I throw on some clothes and lie in bed. It takes a while, but I eventually fall asleep.
Tamaki POV
"Thank you Kyoya."
It's so like Kyoya to have the best of the best looking for her. Don't worry Kairi. We'll find you. You're not alone.
"Master, you should get some rest. Miss isn't going to be well when she gets back. She'll need you to be here to comfort her," Shima tells me.
"You're right. Thank you. I'll go to bed now."
I don't know what I'll do if Kairi doesn't come back to us. I spent so long not knowing I had a sister. Now that I know, I can't lose her. Kairi is truly like a sister to me. I can't lose her. I just wish there was more I could do. I feel like just sitting here isn't helping. I know that I should stay here and be ready with open arms for her return. I just, I just hate this sitting around. I don't know how I'm ever gonna fall asleep like this.
I lay down in bed and close my eyes. I toss and turn for a while before finally falling asleep.
Nicholas POV
She's asleep. She always did get exhausted afterwards. It doesn't surprise me that she'd fall asleep.
I have to wonder though. She's been awfully complacent. I haven't struggled with her at all. And she's been willing to keep going. We've done it three times today. That's more than I could ever get in a week with her before. I'll have to keep a close eye on her tomorrow.
I know. Another chapter. I'm just too excited be writing again. I'm out of my slump. I feel nervous about updating so often cause I know eventually I'm gonna hit a wall and it'll be a month or so before I update again. But, right now, that is not the case. I am very excited about this story right now. Plus, I feel like I shouldn't let this situation sit for too long without new chapters. I don't want anyone to feel uncomfortable with how it's going. I'd hate to update a chapter like the last two and just leave it there for a month or so and not update.
Also, I know these last couple chapters have been a little shorter than normal. I just don't want to rush into things. I am purposefully making this take multiple chapters. So, I'm sorry that they aren't longer. Be patient.
Well, I'm not gonna take up too much of your time. As always, please feel free to comment or message me. Until next time.
