Chapter 22
Fate's Game
"Being a 3rd party doesn't mean you're destroying a relationship. It only meant that you make 2 souls realize that they are not meant to be."
Kendra Tsukiyomi
The doorbell rang twice and Kendra ran down the stairs. "I got it!" She shouted to her mom who was in the kitchen preparing their breakfast.
Kendra lived with her mom ever since her father left them 3 years ago. She lived by her mother's last name since she cannot have her father's. The only reason was because her mom was never married to his father. She was a…mistress. And although that was the case, she understood her.
They were High School Sweethearts but he was from a rich family and he was arranged into marriage. 2 years later after their marriage they met again and a year later she was born. Wow. What a story.
Kendra slowly opened the door, expecting the mail man or some woman selling cookies or make-up. But what she saw was something different. A young lady in a branded dress, a Gucci bag, expensive looking heels and Chanel glasses appeared before her.
'She looks rich. Did we owe her any amount? I hope to God that we don't.' Kendra thought as she forced a smile. She opened the door wider and said, "How may I help you?"
"I'm looking for Kendra Tsukiyomi." She said in an angelic voice as she pushed a hair into place.
Kendra's brow closed together and said, "I'm Kendra Tsukiyomi. How may I help you?"
The lady in pretty dress removed her sunglasses. Her stare was intense but Kendra wouldn't call it as a glare. She then spoke up in a louder voice, "I'm Misaki Harada," she paused and looked at Kendra from head to toe then back to the head and said, "Your half-sister."
Kendra's eyes widened and she couldn't breathe. After a couple of seconds, she licked her lips and said, "Oh." She was surely shocked. 'Why now? Why now after all these years?' She thought bitterly to herself.
Kendra's mom came out from the kitchen and said, "Who was at the door, sweetie?"
Kendra couldn't answer her mom. And Misaki was able to see Mrs. Tsukiyomi. She stepped up and entered the house; she stood in front of Kendra's mother and smirked, "Hi. I'm Misaki Harada, daughter of Kanachi Harada. I'm sure you've heard of him, since you are his mistress."
And Kendra never thought this day would come that she would have to face her greatest nightmare. Sure, she had heard of her before. There are times that she was in the news along with her cousins. Saying they were dating a celebrity or someone famous. She had heard of her before and the way she sees it, she wasn't happy about finding out about her

Mikan grabbed her bag and books. She was the only person left in the room. She was really worried of Misaki. Mikan knew that Misaki always thought that she had some unknown sister or brother out there but knowing it now, now that she was happy, it must be making her life miserable again.
As Mikan turned, she saw Natsume leaning on the door frame. "Hey," he said in a husky voice.
Mikan went to him and kissed his lips. "You look bothered." Natsume stated. Mikan looked down on her shoes then back to Natsume. "I'm worried about Misaki. You know that she can be aggressive sometimes."
Natsume turned her around and hugged her from behind and said, "Does it make you feel better if I send some people to try and look for her?"
Mikan looked at him and said, "How will you do that? And what kind of people?"
"I have connections in the underworld." Natsume whispered. Mikan turned around and looked angry at him. "What!"
"Look, it's just some connections my granddad had. It's not bad to use them from time to time, especially now." Natsume reasoned as he touched her elbow and brought her closer to him.
Mikan rolled her eyes and frowned. "And I thought its just Misaki I have to worry about. I guess, you too. What if people will be after you and just assassinate you because of those 'connections' of yours?" Mikan said as she placed her hand on his chest, the other hand holding her books to her chest.
"Don't worry. I got it covered. Anyway, I'll just ask some people to try and look for her, okay?" Natsume said. Mikan just nodded. Natsume lowered his head and Mikan tip toed. "But I don't do it for free." Natsume said before her lips.
Mikan smirked and said, "Sure, what's the price?" Natsume leaned down lower until their lips are touching. Mikan smiled into the kiss as she melted. Natsume sure have a way with words…and kisses.

Tsubasa sat down on the lunch table with the rest of his friends. He sighed. This morning, the girls told him that Misaki was supposed to take the flight to Rome but she didn't and now she's missing. Tsubasa was worried. And the last person he was worried like this before was… 'Kendra.'
"Hey, any news?" Tsubasa said to Hotaru who was still on her laptop trying to look at every flight there was to see if Misaki took any of them.
"Yes." Hotaru said as she closed her laptop. "She's in Hokkaido. At least she's still in Japan."
"Where in Hokkaido exactly?" Nonoko said as she pushed away the tray that Yuu gave her. Hotaru took a breath and said, "I don't know. I think, she turned off her phone. So that we couldn't track her."
Yuu pushed up his glasses and said, "So, lets take a flight to Hokkaido and search for her." Hotaru closed her laptop and look at Yuu. "Its not that easy. And besides if Misaki doesn't want to be found, we can never find her," Hotaru said.
Tsubasa sighed and ran a hand through his hair as he said, "But you just found her. She's in Hokkaido. She probably checked in in some hotel. It would be easy."
Hotaru looked at Nonoko for help. Truth is, Hotaru doesn't want Misaki to be found…she wants to give Misaki some time to think about all of this. If she is looking for her sister then she must do it alone without any interference from them. Nonoko looked at Yuu then at Tsubasa. She said, "If she really wants to be found...she would have at least left a letter or something. Tsubasa, I know you're miserable about this but you have to let Misaki do this on her own."
"Hello, Auntie?" Hotaru said through her phone. "Yeah. Still nothing. Im sure Mikan and Natsume are also trying their best. Misaki won't do anything stupid like that, Auntie. Yeah, I promise. Uhm. I called for one thing though…who did you say her half-sister was?"
Tsubasa looked at Hotaru eagerly waiting for the answer to her question.
"Kendra Tsu-ki-yo-mi," Hotaru syllabicated as she typed to search for this girl. Yuu and Tsubasa froze. Nonoko stood up to look behind Hotaru to see if she got anything. "Well. This would be great help, Auntie. Thanks."

Anna and Kitsuname were looking around Misaki's room. Nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary…that is until Kitsuname pointed at Misaki's laptop.
Anna sat down on the table and Kitsuname looked behind her. "Hmm. She seemed to be looking at someone's blog." Anna pointed out.
"Who's blog?" Kitsuname asked not being able to see who it was. Anna took a piece of paper and wrote something down. "Kendra Tsukiyomi's blog. Although, I don't remember having any friends in Hokkaido. I mean, whenever Misaki goes there…it would always be with us. I wonder where she met this girl."
Kitsuname's mouth dried and he tried registering what happened. How could she possibly know about Kendra? When Tsubasa didn't have any intention of telling her about Kendra? What the fuck is going on here?
"Kits?" Anna said, standing up and waving the paper in front of him. "Hey, I have to make a phone call. I need to ask Hotaru if she knows anyone with this name."
Anna grabbed the phone on Misaki's table and started dialling Hotaru's number but was stopped by Kitsuname. "I know who she is. I mean, Tsubasa does."
"What? Wait a second. I don't understand." Anna said looking confused. Kitsuname pushed her to sit down on the bed and he sat down beside her. He took a long breath and said, "I don't know how Misaki found out about her but Kendra is Tsubasa's ex-fiancé."
"Okay. Ex? Kits. This doesn't connect anywhere." Anna said. She stood up and grabbed her bag and said, "I don't think Misaki is one to dwell about someone's past. I mean, it doesn't matter, right?"
"No. It does…because—" Kitsuname was cut off by Kendra's mother who entered the room. "Did you find anything, Anna?"
"Auntie. Does Misaki know anyone by the name of Kendra Tsukiyomi?" Anna said.
"She's her half-sister from his father." Yuki said before pursing her lips into a thin line. Anna was now even more confused. 'This Kendra Tsukiyomi is the ex-fiancé of Tsubasa and is Misaki's half sister? How the hell did this happen?'

Mikan received a call from Anna saying she found something and its better if they all meet up somewhere. And by all she meant including the boys. Mikan was confused. "Why would she want the boys to be here too?" She thought aloud. Natsume who was resting with his eyes closed beside her just said, "We'll have to wait and see."
Sumire, Ruka and Koko were the first once to arrive since they didn't find anything helpful. The door opened and Hotaru came with Tsubasa, Nonoko and Yuu.
"Now, all we have to do is to wait for Anna. I think she found something really useful for all of us." Mikan said as she tried to keep her sanity in check. She can't help but feel that what Anna's about to say would either help them or just make them give up.

Kistuname was driving as fast as he can to Mikan's house. Anna wanted to be there to bring them what new she has…but not before clarifying what Kitsuname was trying to say.
"Kits. This Kendra girl, you said she was Tsubasa's ex?" Anna tried. Kistuname just nodded without looking at her. Anna continued to try, "What happened?"
Kitsuname licked his lips and said, "All I know is they were childhood friends, they were engaged but Kendra got into an accident caused by Tsubasa and he is guilty for that. That's why he never showed himself to her again. The rest of the story you should ask Tsubasa."
"I do have one question. Is that why Tsubasa became a player?" Anna said as she stared at the paper with the address of Kendra on it. She looked up at Kitsuname as he said, "Yeah. He said it himself."
High School Sweethearts by 13 is my number
Anna sat down beside Hotaru and said, "I found Misaki's laptop on and saw that she was looking at a person's blog. We asked aunt Yuki if she knows this person and just so happens that Misaki really was looking for her half-sister."
Hotaru was now to talk, "Yeah. We know that. What else did you find?"
"We found Kendra's address. She lives in Hokkaido." Anna placed the piece of paper at the centre of the table and said, "Tsubasa…you do know Kendra Tsukiyomi, right?"
All eyes were focused on Tsubasa. He was nervous. He can't just tell the girls that he feels as if Misaki is Kendra. He can't, he just can't. So he tried to stall. "Yeah. She is. She's my ex-fiancé." He said. Telling half truth is better than telling the whole truth. At least he didn't lie.
"She's also the reason why you became a playboy, right?" Anna pushed, knowing she could get something from all of this.
"Yeah." Tsubasa said as he ran a hand through his head, pretending that all of this Kendra talk is nothing to him now.
"Wow. What a small world. Oh well. Can we go see this Kendra?" Sumire said as stood up and grabbed the piece of paper. "I mean we have her address and if we're lucky we might find Misaki there."
"And then what? We'll tell her we're Misaki's cousins? Wow. How mature. This is Misaki's Battle, S. I suggest we do not meddle." Mikan said as she took from Sumire's hands the address and gave it to Hotaru for safe keeping.
"Fine. Can we at least see her? Maybe she isn't so pretty?" Sumire said as she sat down again. Natsume looked at Tsubasa and mouthed, "You're dead."
"Uhm. She's not that pretty." Tsubasa tried to stall again. But it was already too late. Hotaru had found her blog and pressed the picture. The girls gathered around and Sumire said, "Wow. She looks a lot like Misaki. I guess you could say Misaki got most of her looks from her father, huh?"
Koko took a peek too and said, "Yeah. She's pretty, man." Koko looked at Tsubasa. And some of the girls agreed. Hotaru slammed her laptop. This got everyone startled. "What's wrong, Hotaru?" Nonoko asked quietly. Hotaru stood up and looked sharply at Tsubasa.
"I need you to answer my question with a yes or no." Tsubasa nodded. "Kendra and Misaki look a lot alike. They look so alike; they could be mistaken as twins. It's a coincidence that Kendra was your ex-fiancé and you met Misaki without knowing they were related."
"Where is this going, Hotaru?" Ruka asked. Hotaru just looked at him and then back at Tsubasa.
"And Kendra is the reason why you're a playboy. Now tell me, are you just dating my cousin because she looks like Kendra?" Hotaru said still looking at Tsubasa sharply.
Mikan stood beside Hotaru and said, "Choose your answer carefully, Tsubasa."
Anna sat down beside Kistuname. She feels guilty for Tsubasa since this was exactly what she wanted to happen but she knew that they all deserved the truth, especially Misaki.
Tsubasa gave up. It was game over now. He underestimated them. He thought they would never found out. He just missed one little card that fate was hiding all these years…Kendra and Misaki were sisters, Half-sisters.
"Yes." Tsubasa softly said with his head down low. He looked at the girls and said, "I'm so sorry."
Sumire was pissed. She was soooooo pissed. She walked to him and looked at him straightly in the eyes and said, "Don't say sorry only to us. Say it especially to Misaki because you didn't lie only to us…you lied especially to her. Out of all of us, she's the one who'd be broken beyond fix. And you would be the one who'd be dead." She bumped her should to Tsubasa's side and walked out of the room.
Hotaru followed Sumire but not before saying, "How could you? How could you do that especially to Misaki?"
"She trusted you, you know. She really thought she saw something in you." Nonoko said softly sitting beside Yuu.
And the truth finally came out. Tsubasa knew right then and there that this was a game he can never win…especially not against Misaki's cards.

Mikan, Natsume, Anna, Kitsuname, Nonoko, Yuu and Koko were all sitting quietly. Tsubasa wanted to be alone, while Ruka followed Hotaru out. Koko decided that Sumire needed to be alone this time.
Mikan stood up and said, "We need to go to Hokkaido. I can't just sit around and wait for Misaki."
Natsume held her hand and pulled her gently to take a sit again. Natsume sighed and said, "I know you've always been there for each other. But this is a fight that Misaki has to face on her own."
"Yeah. If she wanted you to go with her, she would have told you in the first place." Koko said.
"And Hotaru would like it better if we don't interfere with Misaki's business for awhile. She needs to be alone." Nonoko explained further. "I'm sorry, Mimi. But right now all we can do is hope for the best."
"That Misaki won't do anything stupid and be safe. Always." Anna continued what Nonoko was trying to say.
Mikan sighed and Natsume tightened his hold on Mikan's hand. He brought it to his lips and kissed it. He then said, "Just be patient. Misaki's a smart girl, okay?"
Mikan just nodded and leaned on Natsume, closing her eyes. All of this drama has to end soon. But this little hope of hers is impossible…especially when their grandmamma is coming home. The chaos has just begun.

"Any news, Creed?"
"Madam, Miss Misaki is in Hokkaido. She saw her half-sister already. And this time it has a little twist."
"Pardon? Twist?"
"It seems as if Mr. Andou has a past with Miss Tsukiyomi, Madam."
"Oh. Do the girls know?"
"Yes, Madam, except for Miss Misaki who is in Hokkaido."
"Very well. Things are unfolding on their own. I guess, I would be bringing one of my granddaughters back here in France soon."
And the line went dead. Everything is now according to plan.

Misaki sat down on the couch while Mrs. Tsukiyomi went to the kitchen to get some tea. The house was small just enough for about two to three members of a family. Two small couches were facing each other with a coffee table in between and a long couch was at the left of the said table. Kendra awkwardly sat down in front of her and tried to look anywhere but straight into Misaki's eyes.
Misaki rolled her eyes and heaved a sigh and said, "Never thought I'd find you, huh?"
Kendra swallowed her saliva and said, "Why are you here? We're not bothering you and your family anymore."
Misaki placed her Gucci bag and Chanel glasses on the coffee table. She looked straight at Kendra's eyes and said, "Because you didn't just 'bother' our life. You ruined it. After all, you're a sin."
Kendra cannot believe what she was hearing right now. She's a sin? She was clearly made out of love. Even if her father and mother were not married…at least they were in love.
Kendra was about to answer back when her mother arrived with tea. She placed it on top of the coffee table and sat down on the long couch. Misaki removed her belongings as she was offered some tea. After the tea was served Misaki spoke, "I didn't come here for tea. I came here to see that you really do exist and that you're not just a figment of my imagination."
"Well. Here is your proof. We exist. Now, why don't I show yourself out?" Kendra said with a little bit of hatred. Mrs. Tsukiyomi threw her a look that says 'Be nice to her, please.' Kendra rolled her eyes and tried not to look annoyed.
On the other hand, Misaki was truly enjoying this. After all those years, she never thought she'll find them someday and be able to share a cup of tea with them. But aside from actually making sure they exist. She has a proposition for both of them.
She took a sip from her cup and slowly placed it back down. "I came all the way from Tokyo to give you a personal proposition." Misaki said.
Kendra and Mrs. Tsukiyomi looked at her, asking her to continue. "I saw in your blog that you're in need of money? For High School?"
"That is none of your business." Kendra said.
"It is. You're still a Harada by blood. And still my sister…half-sister that is." Misaki said. "I have the money. In fact, not only can I send you to a cheap High School but into a private elite High School in Tokyo. I'm sure you've heard of Alice Academy?"
Kendra nodded and Mrs. Tsukiyomi smiled a small smile as if trying to show her that they liked the idea.
"Not only to High School. Also to college. Not just in Japan but anywhere in the world. How does New York sound? Or England? Or how about Paris?" Misaki said as tempting as she could. She smirked and then said, "And you can finally be called Kendra Harada."
Kendra's eyes widened. Misaki, this Misaki Harada who was well-known for being rough and tough amongst her cousins, was offering her things beyond her wildest dreams. But of course she can. Their clan practically owns the world in their hands. She just can't believe it though. All of her dreams were being placed in front of her on the table like cards. But in this card game, she could have them all.
"But of course, there's a catch." Misaki finally said as she took an envelope from her bag and placed it on the table. "I've got only one extra ticket back to Tokyo. And this is for you, Kendra. Take it, pack your bags and leave with me tomorrow night, and you can live how a true Harada should live."
Kendra stood up and glared at Misaki. "You're trying to separate me from my mother!"
Misaki stood up as well, got her bag and placed her shades on. She smirked once more. "Every little dream has its price to pay. To be able to live in my world, you have to know that nothing's free in this world. You're lucky that the only thing I'm asking of you is your mother after everything I have offered you.
"Being a Harada has so much more than being able to afford expensive schools and branded clothing. You can be whoever you want to be. You can be with whoever you want to be. You can even be with Tsubasa Andou."
When Kendra heard his name, the world stopped for her. She thought she would never hear his name again. He was her first love…and she has always loved him even if they were worlds apart. "How do you know him?"
"He's my boyfriend." Misaki said. Kendra's heart broke into millions of pieces right then and there. "Funny though, now I know why he was after me…we look so alike yet the only thing we have in common based on our attitude is that we don't back down. I guess he fell in love with you because of that. He still is, I guess."
Kendra stood there speechless. She was looking down now, trying to hold back the tears that were threatening to run down her cheeks. She heard Misaki's heels click down their floor. She looked up and she saw that she was almost near their front door.
"I'll be in Hokkaido until tomorrow evening. Keep your ticket; you might change your mind." Misaki said then she suddenly pushed down her sunglasses to look at Mrs Tsukiyomi in the eyes. "You know you can't offer her the things I offered. After all, being a mistress has its perks sometimes…but being the real family has its privileges…always."
And with that said, Misaki slammed the door behind her. She walked as fast as she could to her card. The moment she entered her car, she knew she was being impulsive but…she believed in the saying, 'Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.'

All the girls decided to have a sleep over to have some relaxed time after all the things that happened this afternoon. Hotaru was as quiet as ever refusing to talk about whatever was running through her mind.
Mikan entered her room with a tray of ice cream and spoons. She was prepared for these kinds of girl times. Everyone was already on her bed waiting for her to arrive. Mikan placed the tray in the middle and took her place in the circle.
"I wonder how Misaki's doing in Hokkaido." Anna thought aloud as she scooped a spoon of ice cream. Nonoko played with her spoon before scooping. She said, "Did she finally see her half-sister?"
"She could at least call us, you know. It won't hurt to know she's still alive." Sumire said filling her last sentence with sarcasm. Mikan rolled her eyes and said, "I'm sure she's fine. She has always been the strong headed one amongst us."
Hotaru placed her spoon back on the tray and looked away. Everyone looked at her, expecting that she would say something since she hadn't said anything ever since they gathered at Mikan's place. "She knows what she's doing. I'm just worried that she might be too impulsive about things. That she might forget to really think things through and just act on impulse."
"Or worst, she might not think at all and just act on her emotions. I mean, she is hurt, right? Which means, she'll hurt anyone that she thinks causes her misery." Anna said while passing the ice cream to Sumire.
Nonoko and Mikan just nodded in agreement but Sumire thought otherwise. "I have to agree with Hotaru on this one. Misaki was never once to act on emotion. It was always Mikan, Anna or Nonoko who does that. While I, Hotaru and Misaki were the ones who act on thinking too much." Sumire said trying to reason out.
Mikan laughed and then said, "Yeah but I guess you could say a lot of things changed ever since we arrived in Tokyo. Or at least ever since we met the boys. And after what we found out, which could have been figured out by Misaki by now, we just don't know what Misaki would do in this situation."
Nonoko looked out the window then said, "Nothings for sure until it came from Misaki. I just really hope she'd call or something."
And that very moment the Sumire's cell phone rang. The girls looked at each other and their hearts stopped beating. Sumire grabbed her cell phone, an unknown number appeared. She slowly slid her thumb to the keys until she reached the answer key. She pressed it and said, "Hello?"
"Sumire? Gosh. Great to know I got your number right!" It was Misaki. Sumire was so happy to hear from her. She removed the phone from her ears and pressed the speaker button. She jumped back onto the circle and said, "Hello, Misaki? We missed you!"
Everyone now was saying different things and Misaki was getting a headache so she decided to say, "Stop! Okay. One by one. Can I go first?"
"Why? What happened there in Hokkaido?" Mikan said.
"Did you finally meet your half-sister?" Nonoko said inching a little closer to the cell phone.
"I did. And well, we look a lot alike. And I think Tsubasa only liked me because of that."
"So you know the story, huh? Yes, he did. Sorry, M." Hotaru spoke up.
They heard a sigh on the other end and said, "Did he say it himself?"
"Uh-huh." Anna and Nonoko both answered.
They heard Misaki chuckle and say, "I am so stupid. I really thought I saw something in him. I guess, it was the other way around. He saw something in me. He saw my half-sister in me."
"Aww. Misaki, don't waste your tears on him, okay? He is not worth it." Mikan said.
"I'm already done crying. I'll be okay." Misaki said trying to assure them all.
"When will you be home?" Sumire asked.
"Soon. Just watch out for me, okay? I'll be there. I just wanted to let you know I'm alive and still in Japan." Misaki said laughing a little as she finished saying that.
All the girls laughed. Misaki ended their conversation by saying, "I have to go. I have to do some things. Take care, girls. Love you all."

Misaki packed her bags. Her flight back to Tokyo would be in two hours. Her drive to the airport would be about 30 minutes. After finalizing everything in the hotel, she was ready to go.
She took a cab to the airport. She looked out the window wondering if Kendra has decided if she would come with her or not. But in less than two hours, she would know. She grabbed her bag and opened the door of the car. The driver got her duffel bag out of the trunk and handed it to her.
Her heels were clicking and some people were looking at her, wondering if she was some celebrity. He shades were still on and she continued walking like a model until someone called her from behind, "Misaki Harada."
She halted and looked past her shoulders. She then saw the girl she knew who couldn't resist the sweet deal of being a Harada. Misaki smirked and turned slowly. She removed her sunglasses and said, "I knew it. Blinded by money much?"
Kendra took a deep breath and said, "I'm doing this for my mother."
"You do know that when I meant 'you have to leave your mother behind' it means no connections or whatsoever, right?" Misaki said as she looked tall in front of her. Kendra nodded as she took another long breath. "She doesn't belong to our world."
Kendra looked up at her, knowing that Misaki was taller than her by a few inches. "After I become successful, I will comeback for her."
"Being a Harada has its perks…but in order to really gain the true privileges, you have to work it. You have a lot to learn. You sure that you want this?" Misaki challenged.
Kendra pursed her lips into a thin line. She tightened her grip onto her backpack strap and said, "Yes."
Misaki smiled and placed her sunglasses back on. She turned and started walking again but not before saying, "Well then, welcome to my world."

They sat in silence beside each other. Misaki closed her eyes for a few seconds and opened them again only to see Kendra looking out the window. She removed her sunglasses and said, "Oh, sunset."
"I thought the flight was at night." Kendra said. Misaki just chuckled and said, "I guess I overlooked it."
"What's dad like?" Kendra finally gathered enough courage to ask her about the father she never knew.
"To me? A bastard. To you? Probably nicer. You are a child made out of love. While me, I'm a child made out of money, wealth, success, fame…everything you're not." Misaki said without looking at her.
"Yet." Kendra said as she smirked at her.
"We'll see about that." Misaki said as she closed her eyes again. Kendra, on the other hand, would not let this slip. "You hate him, don't you? That's why you want to have your payback on me."
Misaki opened her eyes and clapped her hands and said, "Bravo. You think you got me all figured out? You got it wrong, kid."
"Yeah. You're broken because even if dad's with you, you know you can never have his heart. Like you said, I'm a child made out of love while you're made out of money." Kendra said making sure that every word stung Misaki. But to her surprise, it didn't. Or Misaki was just a really good faker. She'll go with the latter.
Misaki smirked and said, "Yeah, but do remember that that money that made me, will be the one making you and your future a little bit brighter. And do remember that that money made your mom and dad have their high school love story end. And also, don't forget that that money also caused you to be hidden away in Hokkaido…because you can never be a Harada. You can never be me."
Kendra looked down on her lap. She then looked out on the window. Misaki's words hurt…because deep down, Kendra knew they were true. She tried to concentrate on the setting sun, trying to stop her tears from running down her cheeks. But then as one tear rolled down her cheek, she remembered something that she always believed in. Something that she knew, in this situation, was true. She swallowed hard, trying to make sure her voice won't crack as she said, "Being a 3rd party doesn't mean you're destroying a relationship. It only meant that you make 2 souls realize that they are not meant to be."
I am soooo sorry!
