My Happy Ending
Chapter 4 - Finally the Day
"Oh, Yukina am so sorry that your mom that your mother died."
"She was a lovely person."
Yukina was sick and tired of hearing this for the past weeks. She knew that her mother had passed and that she was a loving person. After all she was her mother, she knew everything about her.
"I'm sorry but I have to pull Yukina way while." Akira said moved her away from the crowd. "It's time for the eulogy."
"Now." she asked with a pain in her voice.
"Yea. Do you want me to come with you?"
"No, amok." she left him and went in to the church, up onto the altar and started. " Excuse me." she said trying to get everyone attention and they all tuned to her and some walk into the church to hear what she had to say. "Ok, let me apologize in advents for my crying. Ha! To tell you the truth I have been peppering for this the hold week. I even got pictures and everything but I will just wing it now so please forgive Me." she smiled at Akira and began.
"My mother. Oh my mother, she was many things. She was a wonderful mother, sister, friend and wife." she watched her step-dad and continued. "She was...is a special person that we all love and who loved us back."
She closed her eyes trying to hold back the tears but as she opened her eyes she sow Akira looking at her and her step-dad cry holding his head in his hand. She couldn't hold it in anymore. Suddenly felt to hands holding her thinking it was Akira she tuned to say thanks but to her shock it was Shigure. Although she was shocked she was ok with it she felt good but she didn't understand why.
Shigure didn't know what he was doing. What had come over him? Looking out at the crowed her sow the shocked faces to see him up there with her, and then he sow Akira. He was sowed, mad, and pissed even, at Shigure for being up there with Yukina. Akira was very protective of Yukina and didn't want anyone her thought would hurt her to be next to her but Shigure didn't care. When he got off the phone with her that day, he felt sad for her and his heart hurt. He couldn't bear not hearing her voice, talking to her, telling him all of her stories about her life. He wanted her to tell him more about her but the thing was he had no idea why. Why he felt like he needed to be there for her.
Yukina was done now and was going back to her seat, she held Shigure hand and had he seat next to her. For the first time in her life she felt like she needed someone to be there with her. Not just her mother or Akira but someone she could cry on, to tell what she was thinking and how she was feeling.
Shigure sat there not letting go of her hand for one second. He had let her cry on his shoulder and when it was time for them to live the church he followed her out still holding onto her had, all the way to the burial site. Every time Akira sow them together he would get more and more pissed off. Her step-dad on the other hand was happy that she had found someone who care for her and with that Yukina's mother could be here to see it. When the burial was over everyone went to Yukina house for the wake. When they got there she took Shigure into the back yard to talk to him.
"What are you doing here?" she asked.
"Obviously, I'm here for you."
"Why? Who ever told you I needed you here?"
"I just felt like you needed someone so, I just came."
"OK thanks bout how did you know the date I never, did I?"
"No, the teaches were coming so I thought I would came too."
"Ok." she smiled and hugged him. "Oh and if any one asked you just a friend from school."
He smiled at her. "So are we more than friends?"
She laughed and left to go back inside. Shigure laughed and followed her inside. Akira watched the two of them came from the yard. He had watched the whole thing and wanted to know what had just happened. He hate that Shigure was the one Yukina let comfort her.
As the time passed Yukina and Shigure were ask by teachers who knew they hated each other and by friends and family of Yukina "Are you two dating?" but they just watched each other laughed and answered "No."
The day had passed faster than Yukina thought it would and the day that started off to sad had ended better than she thought it would off. As she stood by the front door tell all the guest bye, Akira came up to her watch her as if saying 'What the hell?' She knew that he was going to ask her about Shigure and what happened back at the church.
"What?" she asked walking away from the door.
"Don't what me. What the hell was that between you and Shigure?"
"It was just here with the teachers from school."
"So way the hell did he need to came and why was he on the alter with you?"
"I guessed that he was here because he's student council president and because I asked him too."
"So why him! To think I begged you for me to came up with you for a hole week and you just brushed me off and said no every time."
"You know what Akira I don't needed this right now. I asked him simple because he mean nothing to me and if you had come up with me I wouldn't be able to say anything."
"Yukina can you came in here please" her step-dad called out from kitchen.
Yukina watch Akira angrily and walked away into the kitchen. When she got the she saw him seating at the table holding two envelops in his hand looking down at them.
"W...What...What is it." she asked as she felt a chill ran down her spin afraid to know it is.
"You're...Your mother left this for you. She had told me the day we got married that she had something's she wanted to tell you and if she left before me that she needed me to give them to you step by step."
"What...What do you mean by that?"
"Today was her burial day and so I have to give you this letter and also when I sow you with that boy..."
"OH! No were not like that."
"Don't lie to me Yukina sow the tow of you in the back yard."
"OK." she sat down. "But don't tell Akira, he hate him but truly I don't even know what I really feel for him."
"OK, I won't tell him but you have to when you know how you feel, but anyway since you found someone who that may actually love you, so here's the other one. Read them and understand but Yukina do your mother a favor and read this one first." as he pointed to the second letter which he had given her.
She left and went up to her room thinking about what thing would be in the letters. She couldn't touch them to open them but she numbered them to remember which one to read first. What could it be in them that her mother couldn't tell her to her face? Could it be about her father?
