Sentiments of a rabbit...

01/10/03

It's been a week since I've dance in front of the Souma clan at the New Year's Eve. It's been a tradition and this year, it is my time. Too bad Tohru is not able to watch me as well as Yuki and Kyo which is quite unusual. I'm really glad that I met such a nice person like her and go to the same school with her.

Today, I just feel like going to my dad's building and I saw Tohru there. I saw again her wonderful smile and it makes me happy. I lend her a helping hand hoping that somehow I can minimize her work. She was quite surprised knowing that my dad owns the building that she worked to. I also showed her the pictures of my father and mother and talked with her about my family. When I'm telling her my story, I know that she feels sorry for me. She even told me that my mother was very beautiful and that I really looked like her. I told her that mother doesn't know me that I was her son. Yeah, it's quite sad but I can do nothing since we were cursed to be like this forever.

I always hope that my mother will recognize and accept me. I wish that I can hug her and show her that I love her very much. Since the day I was born, my mother regrets of giving birth to a child like me. She always get hysterical knowing that her son turns into a rabbit whenever trying to hug me. I know it's hard for her and I really love her very much that's why I understand why I must be erased in her memories. She doesn't want to have me as her child but I must understand that since I love her very much. Her memories about me were erased and now she thinks that I was somebody's child. Daddy explained everything about it clearly and I have to accept the fact that she will never ever recognize me as her child. I love my parents and I never regret of being their child.

That moment, when I was telling my story to Tohru, I feel like I was really left alone. My mother appeared and she talked to me like I was just someone's child that she knew. I stayed in the corner like no one cared for me. As I raise my head up, I saw Tohru crying and I was surprised when she hugged me. I immediately turned into a rabbit and at that time, I felt very warm. I felt the love that I never really felt before and I don't want to end that moment. I felt the tears pouring down from her eyes and I can't help but cry. I always long to feel the love coming from a mother because I really never felt having one that would really care for me. I am very glad that Tohru is there to comfort me in times like this. I know that I always look so merry but deep inside I'm longing for love. The sadness within me was sealed and at that time, Tohru released it and I really feel good about it.

The day has ended and I'm looking forward for a brighter tomorrow. I hope that maybe someday mother would recognize me as her son and will love me because I really, really want to tell her how much I love her.

I want to believe that no memories should be forgotten... forever...

Ja mata!

End Notes: Oh yeah! It's quite sad. The episode where Momiji told his sentiments to Tohru was one of my favorite episodes. Hehe! Did you enjoy reading it? Please review and I hope that you'll read my other works. Also try to peek on my Ginban Kaleidoscope fic. Arigatou gozaimasu!
