Chapter 2:Hana's Past Part 2
After Hana calm down from her not so little episode, the group were asked to go back to their class. Katomi glanced at the clock wall and saw that it was still school time. She quickly ushered them out of the nurses room.
Hana was about to lie down again when shiver ran up her spine. She looked up at the door and saw Gokudera glaring at her. She looked down quickly hoping that he would go away. Her hope were smashed to the ground when Gokudera shorten the distance between them.
"I don't know and don't want to know what Famiglia you are. Only thing is, don't even think to get near Jyuudaime. If you do so, I'll make sure I'll be the one to eliminate you." Gokudera said with much venom in his voice Hana can't even open her mouth.
She blinked when Gokudera turned around, answering Tsuna's call. Hana lie uncomfortably on her bed trying to understands Gokudera's words. "What is he talking about?" She asked herself. "Famiglia? What Famiglia?" She wonder what he meant by that.
When the last bell rings, Katomi was out of the door faster than lightning. Her fellow classmate could only guess where was the gust of wind came from. They looked in the direction and sweatdropped when they realized that it was Katomi running a thousands kilometres per second.
The panting brunette slammed the nurse door loudly, receiving a glares from the nurse. Apologizing, Katomi looked around trying to find her kouhei. Spotting the brunette lying on the bed, Katomi quickly made her way.
When she reached the bed, Katomi watched in fascination as Hana was lost in her own thought. She laughed softly when Hana almost fell to the floor as soon as she realized that she wasn't alone in her own wall.
"Felling better now?" Katomi asked the lying brunette. Hana smiled at her senpai and nodded. Katomi gave the younger brunette her bag. Hana was surprised at first but then beamed, thanking her for taking her bag.
"Well, if you're feeling better now, we should go." Katomi broke the silence. "Hai." Was the curt reply from the smaller girl. They walked through the hallway and bumped into Tsuna and the gang who was on their way to see Hana.
Hana smiled inwardly thinking about her new found friends. She hope that time would stop so she can cherished and be with her friends forever.
They talked about some jokes intending to make Hana as comfortable as she can be with them. Hana was grateful at their kindness, but sometimes she would glance at Gokudera's direction who was openly glared at her with so much hatred.
The glaring did not go unnoticed by Katomi and the others. They know why Gokudera was acting that way, but he should realized by now that Hana was only a fragile girl. Gokudera's behaviour intensified when he heard about the attack involving Hana and Katomi. He yelled at them that they should not believe the girl but Katomi reassured him, more like threatened him, not to act that way in front of Hana.
Katomi sighed inwardly when the glaring did not cease but intensified instead. She glanced at Hana who was acting as if she didn't feel the glaring that was practically burning a hole into her head. 'Gokudera could be a headache sometimes' Katomi thought to herself.
Suddenly, they were all looking at Hana with a surprised look. Hana herself was looking down at the ground embarassed at her growling stomach. Katomi laughed. "Let's stop somewhere to eat then." Katomi watched in amusement when Hana mumbled something. She smiled when she strained her ears to listen to the mumbling.
"Don't worry about that Hana-chan. Just go to my house and eat there." She looked at Tsuna. "Mom won't be mad if another joins us for dinner won't her Tsu-chan?" Tsuna smiled.
"Of course she wouldn't onee-san. She'll be overjoyed instead." Hana was very confused.
"Onee-san?" She managed to blurted out. Katomi looked at her. She slapped her forehead when realization kick in.
"Oh right. He's my little brother. My name is Katomi Yuuki Sawada." She explained. Hana nodded dumbly at the explanation. In the background, Gokudera was yelling that she should not get into Jyuudaime's house. That she would certainly attack him there.
Hana took no notice of all that as her mind was racing trying to take all the information in. She walked and walked until she was snapped out from her reverie when Katomi called her name. She didn't even realized they were walking toward Katomi's house.
'How can I refused their offer now?' Hana thought more to herself. She looked at the house and stood rooted to the ground at sheer size of the house. It couldn't even be called a house. Because it was a freaking MANSION!.
She nervously went inside when Katomi called her. Shivers ran down her spine again and she sighed inwardly. 'What is wrong with that guy?' She fumed. She glanced at Gokudera's direction and flinched slightly when the glare intensified.
Katomi opened the door and it makes Hana shivers more than the glares being directed at her.
"Tadaima!" Katomi yelled at the top of her lungs. Suddenly, Yunisu emerged from somewhere and greeted them.
"Okaeri nasai, Onee-san." she then proceed to Tsuna and hugged him. Hana was even more confused.
"Is Yunisu your sibling too, Katomi-senpai?" She asked. Gokudera snorted in the back and started to yell again if not for the glare being sent from Katomi and Tsuna.
"Nope, she my sister-in-law. Well, would be sister-in-law actually." Hana almost fainted at that.
"Is she Tsuna-san's wife?" She asked incredulously. Katomi shook her head. "They won't be married until they were eighteen." Hana stared in shock and nodded at the information. She has more question, but it was left unanswered
They went into the living room after being informed by Yunisu that dinner would be served in a few hours. Once there, Tsuna excused himself to help his fiancee's and Katomi went to her room to put away her things.
Yamamoto has already went back to his house, telling them that his father need help in the restaurants. Hana was then informed that Yamamoto's father own a sushi restaurant. Hibari went to do something or so he informed, but knowing him in this past few days, he must be biting someone to death.
That sent shivers down her spine as the first day incident came back floating at her. Hana looked around the room and was shocked when she spotted Gokudera in the same room. He was still, undoubtly, glaring at her from his position on the other side of the room.
Excusing herself to the bathroom, Gokudera told her to stop. She halted her step and waited for his words.
"Where do you think you're going?" He snarled. Hana turned around and faced the short-tempered boy.
"I told you I'm going to the bathroom, aren't I?" The silver haired boy just snorted at that. "You expect me to believe that?" Hana took a stepped back as the older boy stood up. "Do you think I don't know what you were planning?" Hana opened her mouth to say something but was cut off when Gokudera continued his ridiculous lies.
"I know you were sent from the others Famiglia to kill the Tenth. But don't think it will be that easy, girl." He sneered at her at that last words. Hana has have enough of this charade and voice her opinion.
"I don't know what you are talking about, Gokudera-san. But, whatever you said were never true." She snapped back. This time Gokudera took the shock. "Yes, I was sent here, but it is for a different reason. Very far from your deductions." Gokudera was about to retort back but the smaller brunette would not let it.
"If I were ordered to kill the Tenth, why didn't I become his friends in the first place? Yet I befriended Katomi instead." The silver haired boy just stared at her before answering back. "Maybe that was a part of your plan. Maybe you intended to befriended Katomi-san, knowing she was the Tenth sister, and then take a good opportunity to eliminated him." Gokudera snapped, stressing the words maybe.
"If I were truly intending to do that, why would I want to fake the attack? What good would it brings to me?" Hana was trying to surpress her anger towads the other boy. "The good it brings you is that you could kill Jyuudaime quickly. A small sacrifice is needed to success a mission." Gokudera answered sarcastically.
"Listen here you...!" Hana was at the top of her boiling point and was about to snapped the other's neck if not for the soft voice calling her name.
"Hana-chan?" The said girl and the silver haired boy both looked at the owner's of the voice. Hana saw the most gorgeous lady she has ever seen. Gokudera quickly hide his fist that was almost an inch from Hana's face and spluttered in front of the lady.
Hana was shocked to the bone when she recognized the woman. "Nana-san?" If Gokudera was shocked he did not show it. Instead he accused Hana for knowing everyone in Jyuudaime's life. Hana was about to retort back, but the next thing she knew was that she was in another's hug. She realized it was Nana according to the excited voice.
"Hana-chan! It really is you!" The older woman was hugging her too tight making her face blue from the lack of oxygen. She was grateful when Katomi entered the room wearing a new outfit, help her pried herself off from the smiling woman.
"Okaa-san, please behave yourself. Poor Hana-chan being strangled to death from your death hug." Katomi's voice was stern, but there was still a hint of amusement there. "I-It's okay Katomi-senpai. Nana-san has always been like that and I kinda miss her hug." Katomi stared at her confusedly. Gokudera who has been forgotten momentarily was as well.
Nana decided to answer their silent question. "Ara, didn't you know that Hana-chan was your cousin? A distant cousin actually." Katomi was even more shocked at the news.
"W-what? W-why didn't y-you tell us e-earlier, Okaa-san?" Nana's smile faltered a little. "Didn't I tell you last week that a cousin would be visiting?" Nana looked at Hana who was now as confused as hell. "Didn't your parents told you that you are to live with us? Where have you been this whole week? I've been trying to contact you or your parents but could not get connected." Hana skimmed through her memories about the living part.
"As far as I know, they never told me that. They just sent me to the airport and leave me." Nana smile apologetically at her. Katomi watched the whole scene without knowing any of it. When she saw Nana's apologetic smiles, she knew that something must've haad happen in Italy to make Hana migrate to Japan. 'No matter, I'll ask Okaa-san later.' She reminded herself.
At dinner, they were all informed of Hana's relation to them. This was a very shocking news to them for they thought they were the only Sawada there. Turns out that Ieyatsu Sawada has a little sister who has been separated because of her illness at that time.
Gokudera of course still didn't believe all of it, saying that it was a part of the scheme made by Hana. The smaller brunette just kept quiet at that.
After dinner, when Hana was walking towards the bathroom, she bumped into someone. She fell on her butts and make whining sounds at the pains.
"I'm so sorry. Are you okay?" A hand was thrust into her face and she took the offering hands who helped her stood up.
"D-daijoubu desu. Anata desu-ka?" The other smile revealing pearly white teeth. "I'm fine. Don't worry about it too much." Hana looked up and saw the most beautiful girl she has ever met. Her sleek black hair flowed around her back. "I'm Nanami Hoshina Sawada and you must be Hana-chan. My sister told us about you every day." Nanami answered quickly noticing Hana's reaction.
"Oh." Hana replied dumbly. Nanami laughed at her expression. They walked towards the bathroom together, talking and knowing more about each other. It turns out that Nanami was in the first year too and was very delighted that she was on the same class as the brunette.
They were walking back towards the living room when suddenly Hana feel something is not right. Reaching their destination, Hana stopped in her tracks. Nanami glanced back at her wondering what happen.
"She should not have come here. I have never issued the order for her to moved here nor lived with you." Hana was sweating heavily by then. 'Oh no. They found me. I have to get out of here.' She thought to herself. She was just walk a few steps when the door to the living room slammed open revealing a tall man.
"Hana-chan?" Nana asked from the other side of the room. Everyone was staring at her except for Gokudera who was smirking. Hana cringed on the inside. Her blood drained from her face when her eyes caught the tall man's. She flinched when the man uttered her name.
"Hana, you have disobeyed yet another of your promises. You-" Hana did not hear the rest as she ran as fast as lightning from the mansion. The brunette could hear the faint yell of 'catch her!' and the pleading from Nana. Hana opologize to Nana for bringing problems into their past.
"Stop right there Hana!" The said girl ignored the voice and kept running.
"Hana-chan!" Hana faltered a little in her running, but didn't want to take the risk of being caught. She didn't even glanced back at her worried senpai.
She didn't stop running until she was sure that no one was pursuing her. After a few more blocks, she finally stopped in front of a park. She was huffing heavily when she sat on one of the bench.
She was beginning to relax after a while and stood up to go, but suddenly her world went black and the last thing she could hear was the sound of someone's laugh.
