Chapter 2: The Revelation

"Dear Makarov Dreyar,

I am Jude Heartfilia, the father of Lucy and the husband of Layla. I know you know Layla. She told me lots of stories about you when she's still with Ivan..."

Laxus' eyes widen when he read that part then he felt his heart skipped a beat. That woman did have another husband plus a daughter? Anger is coursing through his body. That woman left him when he was still a baby then just now he will know that he have a sister? His eyes hardened then his breathing got quicker. He is also clenching the paper hard it might rip. He continued to read the letter even though he was shaking in rage.

"...I will not go around the bush anymore. I am asking a big favor from you and it concerns Lucy.

You see before Layla died last 12 years, she asked me to find her other child with Ivan. I could have not consented this, knowing this is Layla's child from another man but because I truly love her, I promised her. I also made a promise that Lucy and Layla's other child will meet and become true siblings..."

So she is dead. Laxus thought but he felt a pang in his heart. He may not know Layla since she left him when he was still a baby, heck Lucy was much luckier than him but he knows it's not her fault. It's his father's fault for abusing and driving Layla towards the edge. It made her go away since she can't take anymore his father's wrong doing.

But of course, he can't just let it go just like that. There were times when he was a child that he needed a mother's love. He is always asking his father for his mother and it caused some painful moments. He needed someone who will tell him that everything's ok when things are not ok. He just needed someone. He needed his mother.

Over the time, he grew up to be independent. Always aiming to be on the top. Always telling himself that he is a much better guy than his own father. Somehow the only one who really cared for him is his grandfather and he was truly grateful for that.

"... I know it is very impolite of me to ask such favors from you. But please understand me. I want to honor my wife's last wish. And I think Lucy will be happy if ever she will have a sibling cause she have been alone all this time..."

Alone? Why is someone like her alone? Doesn't she have is father or friends and everything? He thought all of those things. She is much luckier than him.

"... I made a big mistake of not paying attention to her as she grow up. I was too hurt when Layla passed away. It's very painful. I don't want to remember anything about Layla so I can move on. And Lucy is so much like her. It pains me to see her. So I focused more on my business and just left her like that..."

Why is that their father are big douches? Now he felt a tiny bit of pity for her. She have been alone for how many years. At least he have his grandfather who loves him more than anything.

"... I know I've been a very bad father to her. And I truly regret that..."

Good to know her father is not like mine. But then again, my father is worse. Laxus grimaced at that thought. He continued on reading.

"... But Lucy is a very kind girl. She still loved me even if I am like this. She hated me, of course. She have every right to do that. Even I feel the same way about me. But her love is even more powerful than that hate and I'm happy to have a place in her heart.

However this is not the only reason why I wrote this letter. By the time you read this, my life have already ended..."

Laxus was shocked with what he read. His eyes snapped to the room where Lucy is staying.

So that's why she looked like that. The loneliness and sadness that he saw in her eyes must be because of that.

"... Any moment, my body will fail me. I've worked so hard that I even forgot my health. I'm truly a bad person and maybe God is punishing me right now for what I have done to my daughter.

So I will ask you another favor. I'm sorry again for being a selfish person but can you please adopt Lucy?"

Whoa. Wait a minute. Adopt? As in she will become his sister?

"… We have no more relatives living in this world. Although she was raised by the maids and butlers in our house, I don't want to entrust Lucy to them. Then I remembered the promise I had made with Layla. I had people searched all over the country to find her other son and they found him living with you, Sir Makarov.

I was worried that Layla's ex-husband will still be there. I don't really want him to see Lucy. But then I've heard that he's not living with you anymore and it somehow made my heart at ease.

Please Sir Makarov. I am begging you to take care of Lucy. I know Lucy can take care of herself but I will be more at peace if I know that she will be in the company of a good person like you.

Please take care of my daughter.

From,

Jude Heartfilia"

Laxus stared at the letter. Different emotions were what he felt. Then he looked to his grandfather who was watching him closely.

"What the hell..."

"Laxus." His grandfather started.

"So you are just going to accept this... This..." Laxus couldn't continue what he needs to say.

"Laxus, please calm down." Makarov pleaded to his grandson.

"How can I calm down?! What the hell is this? This is total madness! It's crazy! How can I just accept someone like her?" Laxus said angrily.

"You need to understand she got no one for her." His grandfather tried to reason.

"She is rich! She can fully support herself. She have no place in our family." Laxus tried to control his own rage.

"But she is your half-sister." Makarov said.

"She ain't no sister of mine! She's just a daughter of that woman whom I despise so much. She's just a stranger to me." Laxus lowered his head as he tried not to let his anger get the best of him.

"Laxus!" Laxus snapped up when he heard that angry tone from his grandfather. It made him shiver. His grandfather never gets angry easily but when he does, it's so scary.

"My decision is final! I will accept her as part of this family and you will do the same. Understand?" Makarov said firmly. Laxus just stared at him.

"She needs to feel the warmth of someone being there for her. No one wants to be alone for his or her whole life and she have been through that. The loneliness, the pain of having no one, the sadness. It is enough to drive one crazy." He continued to make his grandson see his point. But he is getting no response.

"Of all people, you should be the one who should understand her." Makarov said with sad tone.

Laxus then finally see what his grandfather is telling him. He had no mother since childhood then his father is a big pain in the ass. Because of that, his grandfather made his father leave.

He became rebellious and angry all the time but because his grandfather is still here for him, he manage to get back to the right path.

His situation is the same as that girl except that she has no one. She doesn't have someone like his grandfather.

This is a total mess.

"Fine." Laxus finally answered. "She can live here."

His grandfather was about to smile when Laxus continued. "But I will not accept her as part of this family." Then he walked to his room and slammed the door shut.

Makarov sighed. He knows it will take time for his grandson to fully accept this but it is better than nothing.

Isn't it?
