Chapter 9- Finding A Reason

The next day, Tolle isn't in his right mind. Even in his work, he doesn't do well it is because he lost his cell phone that was given to him for his birthday. "I'm sorry if you lost your cell phone." said Kira "But… Tolle, this isn't the end. There's still many phone there that are waiting to be bought."

Tolle sit down and try not to listen on what Kira is saying. Flay went inside and it seems that she's looking for someone so she walk around but soon went outside when she didn't found the person she's looking for. Tolle was looking at her all the time she was inside. So she's a high school student like us. He thought. And she has the same uniform like the girl Kira saved.

Flay continue to search outside and in a near flower shop she saw Miguel. She called him but it seems that he didn't hear her. So she decided to get there. Miguel was surprised seeing Flay. "I thought that you'll be waiting me in the restaurant but you weren't there so I look for you." Explained Flay sweetly, she looked at the flowers that Miguel is holding. "Are those for me?" Without hearing Miguel's answer she took the flowers from his hand and smells it. "It smells good." She said happily. "So… Where will we go for our date?"

"We're not going for a date today Flay." Flay's smile fade and she looked meanly at Miguel. "I need to prepare for my speech for Monday." He explained not looking at Flay's eyes.

"Why would you worry about that? You're already the winner, who would vote for that Lesbian Lacus?" She said laughing. She holds Miguel's hand tightly. "Come on, I want to go to a date." Miguel refuses but soon was convinced by Flay. The two went for a date and enjoy the whole time they were together but Miguel couldn't enjoy it completely since he knows that he's playing dirty in the campaign.

After practice Miriallia decided to stop by in the place where Tolle had saved her. She's feeling a little scared since the incident just happened yesterday. She continues to wait though her legs were tired of standing because she really wanted to return the phone but she didn't see him. Instead she went home looking disappointed.

"Tomorrow's our game my fellow team mates; we need to win if we want to stay in this league!" Cagalli shouted with full strength to her team mates while holding a ball in her hands. Lacus was there sitting all alone and not minding their practice. I thought she wanted to see our practice badly but she isn't looking at us.

Miriallia came running late looking haggard with her hair uncombed. She immediately put her bag next to Lacus. "Please keep an eye on my bag Lacus." She combs her hair hastily while putting the phone from her pocket to the bag. Lacus was staring in the phone and Miriallia noticed it.

"A new phone?"

"No…" Miriallia answered. "It's not mine, somebody left it last Wednesday night." Lacus still stare at the phone, she doesn't know why but she can't remove her eyes away from it, it's like there something important in it. "It's a new model; would you like to look at it?" Lacus said "yes" and took the phone from Miriallia's hand. Miriallia put the comb back and gets her towel before running to her team mates.

"This is Kira." She said surprised when she saw the wallpaper in the phone then looked at Miriallia who's playing in a concentrate manner. "Then this must be Kira's phone." When the team decided to take a short break Lacus talked to Miriallia.

"Do you know the person who owns it?" Asked Lacus.

"No… not exactly." Miriallia answered shyly remembering how Tolle have saved her. "I don't know him… and I don't even know how will I give this back to him. And I don't have any free time until Saturday; I think he's missing his phone now."

"Do you want me to give him this? Well I have a lot of time." Lacus asked excitedly. The truth is, knowing that Kira owns it, she feels alive for unknown reasons. Maybe she just wants to bring back the kindness that Kira gave her the other day by giving back his missing phone. Miriallia doesn't want Lacus to give it back since she wants to see Tolle again but decided to let her. She doesn't have enough free time.

"Will you?" Asked Miriallia. "I want to see him again that's why I want to give him this personally but I think he really needs this and this is expensive." She felt disappointed for the only chance to meet him again but then again, she doesn't have free time to do so. "Thank you… please tell him that Miriallia found it and that I want to give it personally but I couldn't."

"I'll tell him Miriallia." She looked at her watch and immediately gets her bag. "I'm going now, good luck! I'll watch your game tomorrow." She said then wave her hands to them and went home.

When she got home, her father wasn't there and so is Natarle. She change clothes and ate dinner alone. She feed Kira before going to bed. "Father's back from his business trip but I cannot feel his presence." She said to Kira who's already sleeping. "Oh Kira! I have Kira's phone with me." She took the phone from her bag and look at it. "I'm going to bring this to him but first I'll get his number from the directory to tell him."

She gets the directory and when she found the list of Yamato in their town. "Oh my, there's so many Yamato in this place." She calls each number until she came to the last Yamato. "Yuko Yamato, I really hope that this is his number." She dials the number. Someone answered the phone.

Hello this is Yamato residence, what can I do for you? Said the sweet low voice from the phone.

"Hello, this is Lacus Clyne, I'm a friend of Kira. Can I talk to him?"

He isn't here. Then she coughs hard. Do you want to leave a message for him? Then coughs again.

Lacus became worried about the girl. "Please tell him to meet me tomorrow morning at the park, I'm giving back…" but before she could continue she heard someone fell on the floor. "Hello! Are you there? Are you alright? Hello!"

I'm alright. I'll tell him your message. Then put down the phone.

She puts down the phone thinking about the person who answered it. "I hope she's alright."

In Yamato's residence, Mr. Yamato came in but saw Miki lying on the floor unconscious. "Miki!" He brought Miki upstairs and let her rest. He prepares soup for her. When Kira arrived his father rushed towards him and was ready to hurt him. Kira was surprised with the way his father has welcomed him.

"Father? Why?" His father let him go and continue what his was doing before Kira came.

"Next time, go home early to look after Miki. If I didn't come home early she would be dead by now." He said angrily to Kira. He finished what he's doing and head outside to calm himself.

"Miki?" worried about her situation, he rushed to Miki's room but Miki's sleeping so he didn't bother to get in.

Lacus isn't sleeping yet. She took the cell phone from the table beside her bed and looked at it. "It isn't that bad if I'll take a look at his pictures." She went to the gallery and look at the images. All she sees was Tolle images with few Kira shots. She continues to look smiling but then saw a girl who looks familiar. She zooms and realizes that it was Flay. "Flay?" Surprised, she rises from her bed looking focus on the picture. She looks blankly on the room. "Do they know each other?"

She again continues to look and saw many pictures of Flay now with two guys with her. One is Miguel and the other is unknown but the unknown guy looks like to her a photographer and the person she saw in the mall. He was handling the pictures to Miguel and Flay. She noticed that those pictures were her and Cagalli. "Flay really wants me to be disqualified but it won't happen now."

Meanwhile, Cagalli just came home from her practice. She looks tired with sweat all over her body. Her shirt's also wet from behind. She gets a towel from her bag and wipes her face then neck then her back but she's having difficulty wiping her back so she stop and sits in the stair. "I'm tired, I do wish we'll win tomorrow." She said to her self. She gets her bag then stands. She heard the gate opened and the sound of a car. After a few seconds, a man came rushing towards her angrily. His eyes were burning in anger.

Cagalli stare at the man and greeted him. "Welcome back father!" she said happily with a big smile in her face. Mr. Athha didn't answer her greetings instead he immediately hits Cagalli face. Cagalli was surprised with the way his father acted upon her. She didn't look back at him. She grabs her bag and immediately runs heading to her room. She locked the door and jumps to the bed covering her self with a blanket.

Mrs. Athha was watching them from afar. She felt bad for both sides but can't help sympathizing with Cagalli more. She decided to go upstairs passing by Mr. Attha.

"Why didn't you told me about this?" he asked angrily. Mrs. Athha just nods and stops. She doesn't know what to answer. "I'm running for next year's election. This kind of news will just ruin my name and I'm not going to let that happen!"
