Chapter 8 Forgiveness is Fleeting
Hi everyone! I realize this took me almost a million years to get out the next chapter and I do apoligize for that. I've had it written for forever. I've decided to give this story a few twists and turns, so I hope you like it and you don't think I'm too evil, but those are for later ;p Anyway, enjoy and I'll try to update sooner next time! And thanks to all those who have reviewed this story, you really keep me going!
Wrong. He was so wrong. Not only did she not forgive him, she seemed more hostile then ever on the plane ride home. Kyoya had gathered from Haruhi that Mina had still not been in contact with her father since the storm began. And now that it had ended the home phone line said it was no longer in service. For the rest of the storm Kyoya had learned that Mina spent it either in the twins room behind closed doors or with Honey and Mori playing hide and go seek. She had avoided him for most of the time and when she had to be near him, she did not acknowledge his existence.
No matter what Kyoya tried Mina would not respond. The fact that she was spending so much time with Hikaru and Kaoru also irked him. He didn't mind her hanging out with Honey but he didn't feel so comfortable with Mori and her being together. Yes maybe her felt threatened and was jealous but he didn't care he missed her company.
The plane landed but no car was waiting for Mina so instead she had the twins take her home. When they arrived there was police tape everywhere as well as cars and officers.
"What is going on here?" Mina asked to no one in particular, baffled.
"Do you want us to go in with you?" Hikaru asked putting his arm around her shoulders.
"No, I want to face whatever this is alone." She replied with a wobble in her voice.
"Are you sure? I don't think you should," he chastised not having a good feeling about the situation.
"Yes I am sure, thank you for the ride home." She said hopping out of the car. After exchanging farewells, she waved to their car driving away. She walked closer to her home.
An officer who wore the look of inspector detective sauntered up to her and asked, "are you Mina Heart daughter of Mr. Owen Heart?"
"Yes officer. I am so confused. What's wrong? What happened here?"
"I am sorry to inform you that you are under arrest for the suspected murder of your father," he said although he didn't look sorry about that at all.
"What the heck are you talking about?" Mina screamed indignantly.
"You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law," the officer droned and cuffed Mina placing her in the cop car.
At the station, Mina didn't know whom to call. Her father was murdered, her stepmother, Aya, crying to reporters that she couldn't believe Mina would do such a thing. She was still mad at Kyoya even though she wasn't actually still mad at him. Then there was always the fact that she was now a criminal. She didn't want to ruin any of her friends' reputations that they were associating their families names and companies with a criminal. The Host club as probably in trouble as it was.
She would call Haruhi but with the bail being in the hundreds of thousands of dollars Haruhi could do nothing for her. Sighing in defeat, Mina sat in her cell with her back against the wall. What else could she do? So she reserved her phone call and sat on the floor dreaming of better things.
Don't forget to review! Thanks!
