Hey guys ^_^ well here's Chapter II...hope its what you expected.
She walks down the beach, against the beautiful horizon.
You walk up behind her,
and gently grab her hand.
She starts to play with your fingers,
and you keep on walking down the beach.
Simply enjoying each other's company.
You smile to yourself.
She turns her head.
This you see, but don't imitate, waiting for her to say something.
She kisses your cheek
and breathes, "i love you."
you turn your head
and whisper, "I love you too."
you look deeply into her beautiful eyes,
savoring each moment.
She stares back,
a look of pure adoration spreading across every inch of her angelic face.
She wraps her arms around your neck
and presses her lips against yours.
You kiss back,
your hands around her waist,
embraced tightly,
reliving the pains of the past,
holding on to the present,
fearing for the future.
Her name, said Dororo in Tachichi's mind, was Koyuki.
"Gah!" I woke up, screaming and crying. Panting. Rapid images flying through my head. I closed my eyes, but the images flashed behind my eyeballs. I quickly glanced at the clock to my right. 2:46. It didn't matter. I had to speak to Dororo right away. Hastily, I ran down the hallway into Dororo's room. He was sitting down, meditating with the lights on.
"Dor--" I yelled, but he stopped me with his hand before I could finish.
" I saw your dream. It was quite peaceful." said Dororo wisely.
"...Why were you in my head in the first place (-_-) ?" Dororo quickly began to sweat and became nervous.
"I'm just joking (=3)! Dororo, you're like my brother!"
"You seemed troubled. That's why I was inspecting, then I found something in the corners of your mind. Shut away. I accidentally triggered it, and it became your dream." He seemed expectant.
"Dororo...since you saw that, I'm not gonna lie to you...I love Koyuki-chan. I met her a long time ago, when you were a small child. We took care of you together. It was like being married. But then...she said we could never be together...and crushed my heart...then I never saw her again...until you opened that up." I finished.
"You...you were that 'wonderful father' Koyuki always spoke of?"
"She...she spoke of me as a wonderful father? After she left me?"
"She left someone as amazing as you?"
"You find me amazing?"
"You don't?"
The rant of conversation ended as soon as that was said.
"Well...for one, I did some things I could have lived without doing."
"I know." said Dororo, and I was unsure we were talking about the same thing. "Are the scars still there?" he asked, and then I became sure. Even on my human body, the scars were placed perfectly.
Over my heart was the outline of a heart, being broken in half. It was etched with a knife the same day she left me. There was still a heavy scar, running down from my heart. It was like rain was sliding on glass, except for the fact that it was on my skin. It went down to my belly button. Then, real tears began to fall from my hot, steaming eyes. They streamed down right in line with my scar. Dororo looked up at my guilty face. I had a sudden flashback.
It was that day. I was holding the knife over my heart, tears streaming down my face. Don't do it, Tachichi, I warned myself. Wh... why...would she bring this pain into my life!!! I thought loudly in my head.
Then I made the first cut. Half a heart, almost like a curved 'C.'
She destroyed me-- I thought once again, then made a jagged line, like a thunderbolt, connected to the half of the heart.
Made me feel...true pain!!! The worst kind!!! EMOTIONAL!!!
I made two more cuts, a reflection of the latter, on the other side. It was gushing blood. Just like my face was gushing tears. The final cut came tracing a tear and a droplet of blood; down, down, down, till it reached my stomach. Then I fell.
My flashback ended, and tears were pouring down my pale and insecure face. Dororo looked solemn, staring at my scars as I ripped my shirt open to reveal them. They were still a bit red, as if they were angry.
"Brother..." Dororo whispered.
"I'm...I'm sorry...." I spoke barely below a whisper. "The pain...it was too much for me to handle..." tears were still falling down my face, and I traced the heart with my finger.
"I need to see...Koyuki again, Dororo. I have to." I said.
"Tomorrow there's school. We'll see her and Natsumi-dono there. Do not fear, my brother," he said, "I am here for you. There is nothing to fear, only to understand..."
"You can't tell anyone, Dororo. Please. For the sake of my broken heart."
"You can count on me, brother.
And with that, I looked out the window, concealing the dark rain pouring outside, understanding that a dilemma was upon us. When your past is dark, and your present controlled, isn't your future a crisis?
ME: ohhh...whats this, Tachichi? You used to cut yourself?
TACHI: stfu. It was a hard moment!!
ME & TACHI: HAHAHAH!!! INSIDE JOKE!!!!
