Chapter four: The truth hurts

"Actually, yes… There is…" I muttered. I didn't exactly know how to put it without freaking out… I scratched the back of my neck. She kept staring at me with eyes full of curiosity. I sighed and ruffled my hair. "Aya, do you realize that…. Do you remember when you lived in your mansion, with your father… The curse Aya do you remember the curse?!" I asked, shifting uncomfortably.

She tilted her head, looking so cute that I could've just maybe locked her up to be my own. "How could I forget?" she asked in a bubbly yet sarcastic voice that made me only ever so slightly smirk. But that quickly vanished as quickly as it came. "Aya, if you don't stop… How do I say this? It'll happen to you too…Aya. This is why your mother and I wanted you to stop this! I didn't want to go to extremes and freak you out like this, but you really gotta stop!" I said, holding her shoulders so that she'd face me.

I stared into her lost, helpless, big blue eyes. She really was innocent when she wasn't killing. In fact, I think that that's the only terrible thing she's done. She shook her head violently. Is she saying…. No? I nervously chuckled a bit, hoping that she was kidding around with me here. "Hehe… 'No' what?" I asked as my nervousness escalated. She glared at me. "Don't be dumb! I've spent way too long on this place, making it exactly how I wanted it, building more and more onto it. And I've done so much here! I'm not just gonna leave it all behind and be-"

"Be sane? Be normal? Be safe to be around?!" I said as my voice got higher and higher from irritation. She rolled her eyes. "Sure! Let's go with that! Yes Dio! I know that I'm crazy! I've told you this before! And guess what?! I don't give a f***!" she yelled. My eyes widened and I seriously wanted to laugh and slap her. I turned to face her and grabbed her shoulders and had her face me. We intensely stared each other down. "God dammit… I can't take it any more…" I pulled her to me by force and kissed her.

'God'

'Damn…'
