I don't own skip beat
Chapter 8
~Kouki~
Ah if this Lily person is really my Maria, I won't let her out of my sight again.
I know already, that Lina will never forgive me for leaving our daughter alone. I feel soo ashamed of my behaviour. She was so young back then. On the day of her funeral, I was so distraught. Thinking only about myself, the love of my life, my partner, my wife had just died. I was broken inside and out.
That one time, when Maria acted selfishly, was my own fault because we were never there for her. That one time had caused me to lose my wife and her mother.
She must have heard me complain about her. And because of that she never asked for anything. Even when I wrote her letters in her email she never responded to them. I called everyday, asking to speak with her but they always said that she wasn't there or that she was locked up in her room. Hah, she is my own daughter and I don't know a single thing about her. The things she like, the things she dislikes or even if she has friends, if she ever had a crush on someone.
Sigh
What kind of father am I, and on that day when she left our family she didn't leave a note and I knew she meant that 'don't bother to even look for me, you don't even care'. Ahhh, stupid Kouki.
~Flashback~
I was in my office signing documents.
When is saw the photo of Maria on my desk. She isn't smiling on it. The picture was last taken on her graduation from middle school. My father was next to her and all dressed up as well.
Ah, I wonder how Maria is doing.
Everytime I see her she looks more and more like her mother. Sigh
Lina, what will you do if you were me? I know you wouldn't have left her. You were always such a caring person. Although she closed of herself to me, no matter how hard I try she won't open up to me.
It is like she is a shell, a doll, a soulless body that is just moving without a heart.
Sigh.
I was cut off from my thoughts when my phone rang. I looked at the screen it was an international call from Japan. It may only mean that it's Father. I better pick it up, it might be about Maria.
Sigh
"Hello?" I asked on the phone
"Kouki, Maria's missing! I checked her room; I checked her hide outs and I even called up her classmates. Some of her clothes and all of her money are gone. She left. She left us." Dad said in a panicked voice. Wait... what Maria's missing? That was all I heard, and all I had to hear for me to drop all the papers I was holding and go into a state of shock.
"What do you mean she is missing?" I demanded
"She is not here, and it has already been a week since we last saw her." he told me. By now we were both so paranoid.
"If it has been a week already then why haven't you spoken to me about this sooner! You should have told me from the first day." I shouted at him hysterically.
"I did, but your line was busy and you never gave me your new apartment number." My line was busy? Ah that was the day that the phone broke.
"Anyway, I'm coming home" I told him and hang up. I was only thinking one thing.
Maria…..
~End of Flashback~
Sigh
I was interrupted from my thoughts by Sebastian, saying that the guests had arrived. I better go and see them.
Ever since father told me about them, I looked up on the internet about Shiroi Lily.
From what I read and saw, her modelling technique reminded me of Lina's modelling. She must be my Maria, but her sister does look an awful lot like her, so she might not be.
Sebastian brought them to the living room.
When the door opened I saw 3 ladies coming in. 2 were blondes and the other had raven hair. But you could tell that all of them were models by the way they stand.
I looked at each and one of them.
The lady with the raven hair is wearing a white one piece that shows of her tan skin.
The lady with the red dress I assume that she is Akai Rosa. Hmm she really does look like an angel. They seem to be talking about something because they were giggling at what the raven haired lady had said.
Finally I look at the youngest of the three. She was wearing a black dress that showed her curves. Her hair is wavy while her sister was straight. When I finally saw her face I was shocked because somehow I knew for sure who she is. I can't be wrong about this. I didn't have the time to suppress my shock when she looked at me and I blurted out
"Maria…"
