I finally got to see LOK Book 2! I was sooo happy. Even though Korra was being rude I understand why. But not to keep you waiting any longer. Here is chapter ten!
His eyes were glued to the floor, his head in his hands. Nothing seemed right in his mind. All he knows is that no one could love him like her. Did he want her to forgive him so easily? No but he at least wanted her to talk to him. Why hasn't he said her name since the incident earlier? He couldn't stand to know what he did to her. Korra...Yes Korra. The one who loved him all the way through. The same one who saved him from Amon. Mako's amber eyes watered as thought.
"I just want her to at least talk to me."
"She wants to, believe me."
Mako's eyes grew large and he looked up to his right. Standing there was Aang. Mako was speechless. Aang smiled so Mako would know he was here to help him. Mako then looked down at the floor again. Aang sat beside Mako on the bed.
"Mako...Korra needs you."
"I need her too...I really do. My life has been a wreck. I should not have left her. Especially since I was the only one she could trust."
"Then why did you leave Mako?"
"I just wasn't ready to be a parent. I wasn't ready for that responsibility."
"Neither is Korra. But she's still living. Korra is the one who has to carry your son. The one who will be put down because she's eighteen, unmarried, and going to have the baby as the Avatar."
Mako was silent. He let Aang's words sink in. Something about what he was saying was bringing images in his mind. Mako's ears tuned out Aang. His eyes shut. And his voice disappeared. When Mako opened his eyes all he saw was a little boy in front of him. It was the same one who had his red scarf. Mako walked closer to him. The boy never moved. Finally Mako was standing in front of him. He stooped down to the boy's level. Mako looked him in the eyes. Amber met amber and its like Mako knew who he was.
"Daddy."
Mako grabbed the boy and pulled him close. He then stood up with the boy in his arms and turned around. Now he was facing Korra. She had a smile on her face and she ran up to Mako. She hugged both Mako and her son close. Mako felt so happy. He closed his eyes but when he opened them, he was back on his bed staring at the ground.
"Is that what you want? To have Korra and your son? To be a family?"
Mako looked at Aang.
"Yes, but she won't even talk to me."
"I think I can fix that."
…...
Korra had been sleeping a lot lately. You could say she was like an animal during hibernation. She ate once and then slept for days at a time. But today she was just relaxing in her room. Korra was laying on her bed when she heard a knock at her door. Not really giving it thought she said come in. Korra looked to see who came in. In front of her was Mako. Korra just laid there waiting for him to speak.
"Korra look. I know you're upset with me. I know what I did was wrong. But Korra the truth is I need you and you need me. Listen, Aang talked to me. I'm not sure if I was dreaming or not. But he told me that you will always suffer from this more than I will. You have the burden of carrying this baby. And since you're the Avatar people will view you differently. I know I should of never left, but I can't change my past actions. Just please let me make this right."
Korra stood up and walked up to Mako. For a minute she just stood there in font of Mako as if debating what she should do next. Then her eyes watered and she hugged Mako, burying her face in his chest.
"Mako I'm glad you're back. I need you here. I need you're help. I need to know you will never leave again."
"I'm never leaving."
…...
Aang smiled as he meditated in the spiritual room.
"I've repaired a broken family."
Yes its short. I'm sowwie. Please review. Thanks.
