Chapter 3 (We're been watched)
"Cagalli you're going to be fine, I promise you…and look you're in good hands." and with that Kira taps the edge of the car as it drives off out of sight leaving Kira slowly turning around and heading back to the unfinished business he had to tend to.
Currently in the car, "You shouldn't act like that Cagalli, you going to get yourself hurt." Athrun said with both hands on the steering wheel giving a few glances at her every second he could.
"Why would you care anyway…who are you to me to tell me after being shoved in a car with you with no idea why." she said looking outside the window staring into blankness.
"I'm sorry, it's just that I worry about you Cagalli and you are really careless sometimes if you haven't noticed by now." he said before having a small chuckle thinking about the last time he said that he caught a smack on the head from her, although that laugh didn't go unnoticed because it made Cagalli turn her head and give an questioning glare.
"What's so funny? You do remember what happened the last time you said that!" Cagalli said giving him whack on the head which did please her.
"Ouch! Yes of course I remember…how could I forget" Athrun said with a sarcastic tone. "You know you could have waited until I was finished driving." he pointed out letting out a small sigh.
"Where are we? Oh I see…we're staying at a hotel for the night." Cagalli said dropping her head down staring at her feet blushing.
"Yeah well let's get going before we find out its fully booked." Athrun said turning the ignition key as it turns the radio off.
"Wait, don't try changing the subject! You haven't fully explained anything to me yet and I'm not letting you go before you give me a full explanation of what is really going on?" Cagalli said after grabbing his hand before he could open the car door.
Athrun let out a sigh and began to explain everything he could tell her but up to a certain extent. "Well Cagalli I'm not sure if I'm the right person to tell you this but you do have the right to know the whole truth about who your real…parents were." Athrun said hesitating the last word.
Cagalli's face went pale and she was in denial. "My real parents? What do you mean my real parents! My real mother is at home probably worried sick about me and you're saying I need to know who my real parents were!"
"I'm dreadfully sorry Cagalli you had to find out this way but you are the rightful daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Atha representative's, the running country of Orb and the decision making counsels of politics. You were just a baby when all this confusion happened and from what I know your parents adored you."
"So all this is true? It can't be! I'm nothing that important…am I?" Cagalli said griping hard onto Athrun's shirt looking at him with watery eye's trying to find a different answer.
Athrun looked the other way trying to avoid those confused water works in her eye's that he tried hopefully not to ever see but Cagalli wanted to understand why was all this happening and most importantly to her.
"Yes I know it's hard to take in but you have to accept the fact that you were important and still are." Athrun held Cagalli tightly in his warm embrace and she let out a few tears on his chest.
"Athrun tell me what happened to my parents then? Where are they? Why did they abandon me? I don't understand…" Cagalli was now sobbing those words in his chest and sure enough his shirt must have been damp from all the tears.
Athrun loosened his grip and held Cagalli's hands, uncontrollably she dropped her head down in depression but then only to be held up by Athrun's warm soft hand looking sternly into her golden eccentric eye's that always sparkled when he would deeply see rich pools of gold but nothing was shinning through them tonight but saddened dark shades of brown.
"I personally don't know were they are Cagalli…"Athrun said avoiding her face.
"Athrun… don't lie to me, look into my eyes and tell me what happened to them?" Cagalli was now gripping onto Athrun's chest pulling him in her direction to face her.
"It happened about twelve years ago, your parents and of course you were driven back from an important trip in Laperne for the agreements of a new construction site developing through the main city of Orb connecting to the outer city limits off the eastern border but unfortunately that trip back was soon to be the last trip your parents ever made.
"Someone replaced the driver knocking him out cold and that new disguised driver was a hit man of a evil sick mind that has been after you since you were born and they are still are out there to kidnap you or either set up a horrifying death experience that awaits you still to this day…" Athrun was fisting his hand on the verge of wanting to hit the master mind behind all of this."
"You see the hit man was driving you and your parents on one of those empty freeways and lost control at a fast rate swerving into a big boulder on the side of the road causing the car to flip uncontrollably, flipping both your parents outside but fortunately you were strapped in with your seat belt and then luckily one of the your undercover agents were living down in a valley just a few minutes away discovered a not so pretty sight of what the accident scene looked like and then all I know is that they toke you under the secret care of protection but ever since then three of you were announced missing and your parents current body guard was elected representative until one of the appearances of your parents and especially yourself would hopefully return to take the rightful position back."
"At the beginning of this year I was transferred to your school to be your undercover body guard and I was set this assignment after I had finished graduating at the end of last year, I made new friends with you, Kira, Milly, Shinn, Stellar and the Campbell sisters and all of you made me a lot comfortable so it wasn't really anything I wanted to keep from you, it was because it was a strictly confidential matter."
All Cagalli could do was stare in awe, her face had gone completely dumb struck swallowed in its on world lost in depths of confusion and disbelief.
Was what she was hearing right? And how come she didn't know anything strange before in the past although there was that strange vision she had earlier today at the lake and it had changed her way of thinking.
So if what Athrun was saying was real then so was the vision, the puzzle had finally fitted together and I could now understand how it all fitted, I wonder about my parents… Cagalli thought as her mind was in a thousand places at once.
"Hello…earth to Cagalli" Athrun was waving a hand over Cagalli's face trying to snap her out of her daze and it looked like she was in a world of her own.
"Oh I'm sorry…I was just thinking of –"
"Thinking of if your parents are still alive and out there?"
"Yeah…how did you know?"
"I guess it's my six senses or probably it's just obvious from the look on your face I could tell what you were thinking and I don't blame you for wondering about the possibilities of that."
"Thanks Athrun…Thank you for being here for me." Cagalli said as she swept up to lightly hugged Athrun.
"I'm always here for you Cagalli and I always will be." As they both broke away from their warm and heartily hug.
"It's just… now what must I do, I mean what's going to happen to me Athrun?
"You don't have to worry about a thing Cagalli…leave that up to me and I promise you everything's going to be alright…I'll make sure nothing bad happens and while I'm around nothing or no one will harm you even over my dead body I'll make sure of that."
Athrun said placing an arm around Cagalli for comfort and while he was shifting around to get comfortable he accidentally bumped the key in the ignition and it then switched on the car radio and a particular song was about to start.
"That was what I was afraid of…" Cagalli thought of what Athrun had just said and then at that she closed her eyes for a brief moment and Athrun and her relaxed to the song that was playing.
Song (Tomorrow by Avril lavinge) – Slow peaceful song.
And I want to believe you, when you tell me that it will be okay
Yeah I try to believe you but I don't.
When you say it's going to be but it's always turns out to be a different way
I tried to believe you, not today today today today
(Chorus) stanza
I … don't know how I feel
Tomorrow (tomorrow) tomorrow (tomorrow)
I … don't know what to say
Tomorrow (tomorrow) tomorrow (tomorrow)
Is a different day.
It's always been up to you, it's turning around it's up to me
I'm going to do what I have to do…just don't
Give me a little time, leave me alone a little while
Maybe it's not too late
Not today today today today todaaay…
Aahaah…
(Chorus) stanza
I … don't know how I feel
Tomorrow (tomorrow) tomorrow (tomorrow)
I … don't know what to say
Tomorrow (tomorrow) tomorrow (tomorrow)
Is a different day.
