CHAPTER 4: SAVIOR

"Hello… my girlfriend." the woman sat straight up from her bed and breathed heavily, a hand on her chest. It's that dream again, the day where I first met Night. She felt someone turn beside her and her eyes softened when she saw who it was.

It's been five years since Riiko gave birth to her daughter – Sakura. The mystery of her having a child from a figure was yet unsolved. For now – she doesn't care about it because she had someone to take care of. Her top priority for now was the little angel sleeping beside her.

She gently put a hand on top of the child's head and smiled softly. She looks like her father. She thought happily. She stared at her for a while, blonde hair, pointy nose and thin brows. Everything resembles Night except for her eyes and for being a girl.

The little girl got the color of her eyes – although she expected her to look exactly like Night. She was still happy that some part of her shared something on the little girl – her eyes. She stood up and stretched her sore muscles.

She went towards the door and opened it, before she closed it again – she glanced at her daughters sleeping figure once more. She closed the door and yawn loudly. "You're early." She looked at the man who was standing in front of her.

"Good morning Soushi." She greeted happily. "Good morning, Riiko." He replied. At least she cheered up when Sakura was born, that's a plus. "Why are you up so early?" he heard her ask. "I found a new job and I'm starting today since we don't have class today." He said coolly.

She frowned. "I'm sorry but - you don't have to do this for us. I'm Sakura's mother and…" she was cut off when he hugged her. "I told you, I'll always be by your side." He whispered. How long is that? Soon he has to settle down and have his own family. But - "Riiko, I'll always help you. Always." He said softly.

She hugged him tightly. "Oh Soushi, I don't know what to do without you." She whimpered. "So – I need to prepare now." He said while he let go of her, she nodded. "I'll prepare Sakura's bento. It's her first day at school right?" she smiled.

"I'll help you." He said while he stood beside her and took a knife, she smiled at him. "I'm up." They heard a little voice and looked at its direction. "Good morning, my cherry blossom." Riiko greeted happily. "Morning mom – uncle Sushi." She greeted sleepily.

Riiko giggled while Soushi's brow twitched. She walked towards her daughter and knelt down so she could meet her eye level. "It's Soushi – Sakura. Now, I want you to take a bath and prepare yourself for school, okay?" she smiled. "Un." She nodded and smiled back. She kissed her forehead and stroked her hair. "That's a good girl." She praised.

Riiko stood up while Sakura went inside the bathroom. "What a responsible little kid. You're not that responsible when we're kids, you even – aawww!" his eyes twitched when he felt her foot on top of his. "Now, do you have something more to say Soushi?" he shook his head.

She removed her foot and huffed angrily. "I'm a responsible kid like her!" she shouted. "If you say so… you – " he stopped talking when he felt her heated glare at his back and continued preparing their breakfast.

Soushi was the first one who left the house - he doesn't want to be late on his new job. So, the two girls were left to finish their breakfast. Riiko was washing the dishes while Sakura was quietly waiting at the table.

"Mama?" she started. "Yes baby?" she asked but didn't turn her head. "Where is papa?" Sakura asked softly. The glass slipped on her hand. Thank heavens it didn't break. She was caught off guard at her daughter's question. She'd been expecting this question from her but – not at that age.

She panicked. What am I supposed to tell her? She stared at the sink blankly. I couldn't just tell her that – oh darling about your father, he'd been shut down for years because he's a robot. Way to go Riiko. She sighed. What will she think after that? She might think that her father hates her or… I'm just covering everything up for her.

She was cut off in her thought when she heard her voice. "Mama, are you okay?" she asked worriedly. Riiko turned her head and smiled. "I'm okay, don't worry." She said while drying up her hands on the apron.

She removed the apron and walked towards her daughter. "Well then, shall we go?" Sakura nodded and hopped off from the chair.

While they were on their way to school, she felt Sakura's gripped her hand tighter. She looked down at her. "Darling, what's wrong?" she asked. "I'm scared mom." She answered softly. They stopped walking. She knelt down in front of her and brushed her daughters' hair with her fingers.

"There's nothing to be scared of, everything will be alright. You'll meet new friends there." She said lovingly. "Will you stay?" she made a puppy eyes. "I wish I could but – mom will have to go to work." She saw her frown. "Say… why don't we go to the park and play after school? You can also tell me what happened on your first day." she smiled and saw the child brighten up a little.

"Really?" she asked excitedly. "Promise." They made a pinky swear and started to walk again. When they reached the school, Riiko knelt down and kissed her on the forehead. "I'll also tell you a story about me and your dad." She whispered and winked.

Her eyes sparkled in excitement. "Be a good girl okay?" she kissed her forehead again. "Okay." She smiled brightly. She stood up and greeted the teacher who's at the school entrance. "Please take care of my daughter." She bowed. "We will ma'am." The woman answered.

She turned to her daughter and bent down. "Good luck on your first day." She patted her head gently. "I will mom. You take care on your work okay?" she said cheerfully. "I will." She smiled.

"I love you mom." Sakura hugged her. "I love you too, my cherry blossoms." she said as she hugged her back. They let go of their hug as Riiko straightened up.

She watched her daughter went inside and smiled. She was on her way on her work when her phone rang. "Riiko-chan this is Gaku.. Mama mia, something happened. Please meet me at the park near your apartment. I'll wait for you there so hurry up." Before she could speak, he already hung up.

…~Sakura's School~…

"Hello, what's your name?" she heard someone asked at her back. She turned around and saw a black haired boy with dark blue eyes. "I'm – I'm Sakura." She said shyly. "Hello Sakura-chan, nice to meet you. I'm Yu by the way." He smiled. "Nice to meet you too, Yu-chan." She smiled back.

He grabbed her hand and smiled widely. "Come, let's play over there. I'll introduce you to others" He pointed at the sand box near the swings. She nodded and they ran towards the other children playing near the sand box.

The day went on happily. Sakura met new friends and she participated at school properly. She was so excited for her mother to pick her up and tell her everything on their way to the park. I have so much to tell her. She thought happily while digging a hole. "Sakura-chan!" she saw Yu running towards her.

"Yu-chan, what is it?" she stood up and walked towards him. He stopped in front of her. "I just wanted to say goodbye. My mom is here to pick me up. So - Bye." He smiled widely and waved a hand. "Bye. Take care." She said and did the same.

Although she was a new student in that school, she was happy that she met new friends. She was also happy that she met Yu, he was fun to be with and if she had to admit it to herself. She had a crush on him.

She smiled to herself while making a mountain of sand. She was happy and no one would ever make her sad. She patted the small gill she made while humming in the tune of 'I'm a little teapot'.

It was the first song she learned from her mom and uncle. She gasped. I almost forgot that tomorrow is uncle's birthday. She stood up and dusted off her uniform, she ran towards her room but before she entered she peeped at the door and scanned the room. Good, the teacher's not here. She thought and went inside to get her bag.

She immediately went out of the school and looked for a nearby store. She was still young, yes… but – although she's only five, she can manage to go to a nearby store by herself. After all, her mother also gave her money in case she needed something.

I have a few cents. I hope I can buy something for uncle. She thought. I must hurry and be the first one to return to school or mom would kill me for sneaking out. She run across the road, not noticing the car that was running fast.

She heard a loud honk and looked where it came from. When she saw a car, she froze. She didn't know what to do. She was scared and felt her knees weakened. Plus, the car was running so fast. She closed her eyes. Help – Daddy! She shouted in her mind.

The car was a few distance away from her when she felt two strong arms grabbed her. When she opened her eyes, she saw a man breathing heavily. "Kid, that was dangerous." He scolded.

She stared at him for a while and then – she started to cry. "I'm – I'm scared." She hiccupped. She felt a hand on top of her head and looked up. She saw the man smiling at her. "It's alright now, don't be scared." He said knelt down to meet her eye level. "Why are you in the middle of the road?" he asked.

"I'm going to buy my uncle a surprise birthday p-present." She forced herself to answer while crying. His eyes softened at the girl in front of him. Somehow, she reminded him of someone, but who?

"I see. Would you let me accompany you?" he asked softly. She wiped away her tears. "Is it okay mister?" she asked. "Of course." He smiled and carried her. "Its okay big brother, I can walk." She said sheepishly.

He chuckled. "I know you can, but it seems that you're in a hurry when I saw you." He stated. She nodded. "Let me guess, you sneaked out from school to buy a present aren't you?" she blushed. He laughed.

She stared at the man for a while. I think I saw him, but where? She thought. When they got to the nearest store they bought a simple blue handkerchief and a pen for her uncle, she didn't even spent the money she had. The man paid for everything. "Let me walk you home. Do you know the way?" she nodded.

He gave her a piggy back ride along the way. Somehow, she felt safe with the man who's holding her. She felt that he was the missing piece in her heart. "We're here." She stated. He set her gently on the ground. "This is where you live?" she nodded.

"I think I know this place. It felt like I lived here before with – someone." he said. She tilted her head. "Who?"

He shook his head and smiled at her. "Nothing." She just studied him for a while and saw him put a hand inside his pocket. When he pulled it out, she saw a small necklace. The pendant was a heart with wings and a small cross in the middle.

He knelt down and put it around her neck. "I know we only met today but - I felt that you are a part of me. That's why I bought you this necklace earlier. Because… if I had a daughter, she would look like you." He smiled at her.

She smiled and hugged the man who saves her life. "Thank you." She whispered. "No problem." He hugged back. This feeling, she never felt so happy before. It seems like he was the last piece of her puzzle.

They let go of their hug. "Go now, your mother might be worried." He said. She nodded and smiled and smiled at him. He stood up and watched her ran towards the apartment. She turned and saw him looking. "Mister, I forgot to ask your name." she shouted.

He smiled. "Night. My name is Night." He shouted back. "I'm Sakura Izawa. Goodbye mister Night. Take care!" She waved her hand and entered the building.

He stared at the building for a while. "Izawa." He said as he tested the word on his mouth and continued to walk towards his home.
