Darien staggered the rest of the way home.
"Why had she done this? Maybe it was all just some kind of a school girl joke" Darien thought to himself, trying to put his mind at ease. He knew it was all just a lie, that everything he was saying to himself want true but this was his Serena that he was talking about and somehow he knew, he just knew by looking into her delicate crystal blue eyes that she had meant what she had said.
He let out a small cry as he felt a heart piercing feeling cause by nothing else but his grief and sorrow. He loved her, how could she do this to him? After every thing that they had been through together, didn't any of it mean anything to her at all?
Darien slumped against a neat by wall. His princess had left him, why he continued to live without her he didn't know.
He quickly pulled himself together and stood up straight, putting on a clear expression so if he ran into anyone that he knew, they wouldn't know that anything was wrong.
"Serena" he muttered to himself. "My love, why have you done this to us?"
"Serena?" said a curious little girls voice as she opened Serena's bed room door and let herself in.
"Our daughter…" she thought to herself quietly. She couldn't bring herself to look at her, it would only cause her more grief and as her friends would say, she had already shed enough tears over Darien. He was her past.
"But Rini won't be my future…" she thought to herself. She clutched the pillow closer to her face and began to cry harder.
Rini walked over to the younger version of her mother and sat at the end of her bed. Although she may be there daughter Serena sometimes wondered about Rini's appearance.
"How on earth did she ever end up wih pink hair? She certainly didn't inherited that from neither me nor….her father"
"Serena what's wrong?" asked a curious Rini as she tried to pull the over large and fluffy pink pillow from her younger mothers hands.
"Rini don't" Serena begged, whimpering. "I don't want you to see me like this. I can't look at you"
"Serena stop being such a baby" said Rini, her attempts or determination of pulling the pillow away from Serena neither disheartened or dampened by Serena's words. She eventually pried the pillow out of her hands. Rini blushed and looked away when she saw how red her mothers face was from crying.
"I'm sorry" she told Serena. "Amy keeps telling me not to stick my nose in other peoples business, I should have listened. I'm sorry Serena"
Serena just sat their motionless looking at the little girl that would not exist in a few years time. She would not know that joys and pains of life and she would never meet her mother or her father. More tears welled up in Serena's eyes as these thoughts approached her mind.
Darien was no longer in her life and because if it Rini would suffer.
She pulled the little pink haired girl close to her and held her in her arms. "Rini" she said quietly, consuming her non-existent daughter's name. "Theres something very important that we need to talk about before you go and see…" she stopped as she approached the place where she was meant to insert his name. "Before you go out today" she said.
