This is the first drabble in my drabble book about Cape Verde and her life. There are many AU drabbles. I do not own Hetalia, only Cape Verde.
I timidly looked around, fiddling with my small hands, "Papa Portugal...please come home safe." I said. Portugal smiled warmly at me
"Do not worry, I'll be fine" he said, right before leaving. I paced before the front door, tears running down my cheeks.
"H-He's going to get hurt! I know it!" I cried. I grabbed my shawl from the chair and wrapped it around my shoulders, throwing the door open, I ran off to find Portugal. I was not able to find him, I started to cry as I searched the battlefield that was close to my house, he had to have been dead already. I felt a warm hand on my shoulder, I turned around, and it was Portugal. "Papa!" I shouted, I wrapped my arms around his legs. He picked me up.
"My child, I told you to stay in the house, you made me search all over for you. I knew you would've been worried, but why'd you leave?" Portugal asked me, holding me tighter.
"I was looking for you Papa! I-I thought you disappeared!" I cried. "Papa...let's just go home." He nodded and carried me home.

I scowled as I tugged on my uniform, the words I said many months ago still burned in my head "Papa...I want my independence." was what I said. Yes, I am, I am going to war with my guardian. I wanted independence; I wanted to become a true country. I will get what I've truly hoped for all my life.
