LIES AND PRETENCES
Chp. 3: The Goddesses Awakening and The Rebel's Drama (part I)
"GOOD MORNING MOTHER."
The older brunette fell to her knees inside that room after those three beautiful words were uttered from her daughters mouth. Tears started to run down her cheeks slowly but the soon began as a raging river and she couldn't control all the emotions that she was feeling at this moment. Her crying caused the other person in the room to stir awake as her sobs grew more and more with breath. The blonde woman slowly begins to clear her vision so that she can see what all the crying is about. Once her sight has become clear enough to make out the perpetrator of all the noise she runs over to the older woman and engulfs in a hug. Sandra begins to rub the woman up and down her back trying to sooth hysterical cries that are coming from the woman in her arms.
"It's ok Akemi-san, everything is going to be alright so please stop crying" says blonde as she holds the dark brunette tighter and tighter in her arms.
"No! Sandra you don't understand" replies Akemi as she tries to reign in her emotions. "My little kitsune is finally awake" the woman states matter-of-factually as she points to the only bed in the room placed near the window.
Upon hearing those spoken words Sandra turns towards the direction of the bed and gasps in total surprise at seeing the most beautiful vision she had ever seen in her entire life. She gets up pulling Akemi Fujino along with her and then she suddenly makes her to the person who is occupying that hospital bed before her. Once she has reached the bed she sweeps up the ruby-eyed woman sitting there in a bone crushing hug as she speaks the words 'Shizuru, I have missed you like crazy and I love you with all my heart please be mine.'
Akemi Fujino just stands there watching her daughter being hugged to death by the blue-eyed young woman as she tells her kitsune her feelings. She then moves closer to the bed and leans in closer to her daughter and kisses her on the forehead before joining in the hug fest that she sees directly before her very eyes. All three women begin to cry simultaneously and by them doing so they managed to get th3e attention of a few nurses outside in the hall. So the next thing they hear is the door to Shizuru's bursting with doctor Satoshi quickly running inside of the room. She stops in her tracks upon seeing the wonderful reunion taking place by the bed and she gives them a smile which states 'I am very happy for you all.' Dr. Satoshi makes her way over to her patient bed and checks her chart before checking the medical equipment read outs of her patient's condition.
"Well I am so very happy to finally meet you miss Shizuru Fujino" says the doctor as she holds out her hand for Shizuru to take. Naomi smiles at her patient before stating "You, young lady need to rest more and after that I will come back and run some tests to make sure that everything is okay."
Shizuru smiles back to her doctor and nods head in response to the doctors statement about needing more rest. Because she still feels a little weak and very sore from lying in that bed for so long and she just wants to be able to get up and go home as soon as she can. Akemi and Sandra turn to Naomi before she takes her leave and they both say in unison Arigato sensei. Who then bows to them and smiles back as her answer.
But before she walks out of the room she turns to say "I didn't do it alone, because she had such loving and caring people watching over her and praying for her safety as well." Then she makes her leave with the same caring smile still upon her face.
The two women turn to check on the figure in the bed and they realize that she has fallen asleep while they were talking to the doctor. They both approach her and they each take turns giving her a kiss on the forehead before taking a seat in the room to just be near her encase she needs them. Akemi gestures towards the sofa in the you take it manner and she tells Sandra to get some more rest herself while she takes the recliner and watch over her kitsune. A bit reluctantly Sandra accepts the offer given to her by Mrs. Fujino as she proceeds to rest on the sofa closing her eyes as soon as she hit the softness of the cushions. Akemi takes her place on the recliner and she just sits there thanking God for letting her baby survive that horrible fall she had gone through.
"Shizuru, I will always be here for you my child no matter what hardships that you may face in the future," whispers Akemi as she sheds more tears of happiness.
-NATSUKI'S APARTMENT-
Emerald eyes slowly adjust the bright light shining into her room the next morning. She looks around to where she is and realizes that she had fallen asleep in her bathroom instead of being in bed next to her lover. Standing up slowly she makes her way to the sink and turns on the faucet and she begins to splash water on her face a few times. Once she finishes she stares at herself in the mirror and she cringes at what she sees there staring back at her. Then she suddenly remembers what had happened last night and she started to feel guilty about how things turned out between her and Nao. Sure she loved Nao but even though she is trying so hard and desperately to rid herself of the love she had or still has for Sizuru is a very confusing and complicated matter for our emerald eyed biker.
"What am I doing to myself and the person that I chose to love over her?" she says to no one in particular. "I need someone to talk to about all of my feels that I thought left me once accepting the death of her but I can't let go of the way she made me feel and the way I felt safe and secure with her."
She then opens the door to the bathroom and heads towards her bedroom upon entering she sees the red headed beauty still sleeping quietly. Walking over to the left side of the bed she leans down and places a tender kiss on her forehead before steeping away from the. As she makes her way over to her dresser to get some clothes she never saw those vulnerable lime green orbs watching her every move. Grabbing what she needed she makes her way back into the bathroom for a much needed shower to relax her body as well as her mind. Letting the warm liquid flow down the entire length of her body she begins to she visions of honey-blonde hair and the most breathtaking crimson eyes that she had ever seen.
"Ara, Natsuki is kawaii, I could just eat her up" was said in a seductive manner by a honey-blonde goddess to a blushing blue-haired beauty.
"Mou, Zuru stop teasing me already," replies the blue-haired beauty as she makes an adorable pouty face as she says those words to the brunette.
She shakes the image of the two of them out of her head as she climbs out of the shower and grabs her towel and dries herself off. After drying herself she begins to put on her clothes piece by piece as a sweet honey coated Kyoto-ben is heard echoing in her ears. Knowing exactly whose voice she is hearing she covers her ears and tries to stop the giggles and sweet inviting laughter that follows. But then she hears that one line that one sentence that can break down her walls in an instant.
"Nat-su-ki...I love you."
