Chapter 18

YUI P.O.V.

"I think you misunderstood something here," Karlheinz said, "You're father is dead,"

"What?"

"You're father is dead," Karlheinz repeated, "Therefore you wouldn't have a place to return beside here,"

"You've got to be kidding me," Yui said as she shivered.

"No, I'm not. Misa killed him," Karlheinz said as if it was nothing.

"Misa-chan killed my father?" Yui was shocked.

"That's all for today. I'll go to another business as well. Misa, I'll leave everything in your care. You seem already know who is the mastermind. You've got to be careful since you broke your necklace," Karlheinz said as he disappeared but Misa just kept silent.

"Is it true that you killed my father, Misa-chan!?" Yui shook Misa's shoulder suddenly. However, Misa's expression remained unchange.

"Yeah," Misa answered slowly.

"How could you?!" Yui asked angrily.

"He was sort of a hindrance so I—"

"I can't believe you! I thought we were friends!"

"That was just you who said it by yourself. I just following your lead," Misa said hesitantly. Unexpectedly, Yui took out the silver knife Subaru gave to her and pointed it at Misa's heart.

"What are you doing, you idiot?!" Subaru said loudly to Yui.

"My father's life had to be paid with your own life," Yui said in low voice. Misa grabbed Yui's hand softly and brought her hand which holding the silver knife closer to her own heart.

"Do it, Yui," Misa said softly. Misa let loose of her grip and Yui swung her knife to Misa's heart but Yuuma stopped her by grabbing her wrist.

"Stop it," Yuuma said. As he said that, Misa went fainted and Ruki catched her then carried her to her room.

"We need to talk," Yuuma said to Yui as he grabbed Yui's wrist and went to the garden.

MISA P.O.V

"You're awake?"

"Ruki?" Misa opened her eyes and saw Ruki was sitting on her bed as she lied weakly on her bed.

"You were fainted because you broke your necklace," Ruki said.

"It's better this way," Misa smiled a little then they went silent for some time.

"Hey. We've met before right?"

"How do you know?"

"From the way you speak. You once said 'at last we met again' the you suddenly kissed me. What happened?"

"I won't tell you,"

"HUH?!"

"I said, I won't tell you. Figure it out by yourself," Ruki said then he stood up. Misa was pouting.

"However I'll give you a hint," Ruki said, "Give me your hand,"

"My hand?"

"Just give me your hand,"

"O-Okay," Misa put her hand on Ruki's palm. Then, Ruki tied a beautiful red ribbon on Misa's wrist.

"What is this?" Misa asked.

"You should figure it yourself," Ruki said,"It should be a headband but I don't know how to put it on you,"

"Thank you,"

"You don't need to give your gratitude. It was once yours,"

"This was mine?"

"Tch. You forgetting important things. Are you an old woman?" Ruki said.

"Are you mocking me?" Misa pouted.

"Well, for now justsleep and try your best to remember it," Ruki said as he disappeared.

YUI P.O.V.

"Wait! Yuuma-kun!" Yui called Yuuma as he pulled her wrist to the garden.

"It would be okay here," Yuuma said as they stopped.

"What about this something you need to say?" Yui asked.

"I'll tell you about your father's death in detail," Yuuma said.

"Seiji!" Misa called Seiji Komori, the priest of the nearest church with her house. They were quite close with each other.

"Yes, Misa?"

"It's been a long time since I met you!" Misa said cheerfully.

"You've been lonely since I've gone for months, haven't you?" Seiji said.

"No! I've got a new friend!"

"A boy or a girl?" Seiji asked.

"A boy. Both of us were so lonely and we got to be good friend really quick!" Misa said.

"I see. What's his name?" Seiji smiled.

"Ah. I didn't ask his name," Misa just realized it and Seiji chuckled, "Who is this baby?" Misa asked.

"A certain vampire gave this girl to me so I can take care of her,"

"A vampire did? What an irresponsible vampire,"Misa sighed, "Then, is she a vampire?"

"No. She's a human. Beside, it would a pity if a human were being raised by a vampire, so I heartily accept her,"

"I see," Misa said as she touched the baby's cheek, "She's so cute! What's her name?"

"I'll give her name Yui. From now on, her name is Komori Yui,"

"That's a good name! Right, Yui-chan?" Misa said and baby Yui giggled.

"When she grow up, you two have to be a good friends okay?"

"But I'm a vampire. Is it okay?"

"Of course it's okay! When she grew up, she should be a teenager as you would look like seventeen years from now,"

"Then, if she's a human, she'll grew up fast and die fast, isn't she?"

"Human is a fragile thing. We'll indeed die someday, but the one who decide Yui's future is herself,"

.

Seventeen years had passed since Misa and Yui's first meeting. As she promised, Misa came to Seiji's church.

"Seiji!" Misa opened the door but she gasped when she saw Seiji lying on the floor, "Seiji! Are you okay?!"

"I'm okay," Seiji coughed blood.

"Of course you're not okay!"

"Misa, please hear me out. We're friends, right?" Seiji said slowly.

"What is it? I'll hear you out," Misa answered seriously.

"Please take care of Yui. She should be in my house right now,"

"What do you mean?"

"A incredibly strong yet evil vampire is after her. Please protect her in my place,"

"What are you saying?! You'll live!"

"No, it's too late,"

"Who did this?"

"Your uncle, Richter,"

"As I thought, he's been too fishy lately,"

"Promise me you'll protect her no matter what, okay?"

"I promise you,"Misa said.

"Misa, you've grown up beautiful now," Seiji said that suddenly.

"What are you saying?" She smiled sadly but as she said that, Seiji smiled a little and close his eyes forever. Misa hold back her tears, took Seiji phone and searched for Yui's contact then messaged her using Seiji's name.

'Yui, I'm going abroad for sometimes. Go to my acquaintace's household for a while.

Your father.'

"Is that what happened?" Yui asked hesitantly.

"Yeah, then she took the blame for your father's death," Yuuma said. Yui covered her face and started to cry.

"I don't know about it. She's been protecting me until now, yet I said such a rude things to her," Yui said as she cried.

"Cry won't solve anything. You better apologize to her," Yuuma said.

"Yeah, you better apologize," Ruki suddenly appeared.

"Ruki-kun?! How about Misa-chan?" Yui asked as she wiped her tears off.

"She's fine and currently resting in her room. If you want to apologize, do it tomorrow," Ruki said.

"Ruki-kun," Yui called him.

"What?"

"It's been in my mind for a while, but do you like Misa-chan?"

"HUHH?!"

"HAHAHAHAHA," Kou and Azusa who suddenly appeared too was laughing, "You hit the bullseye M neko-chan!"

"EHH?! It was right?!"

"Yeah, he seem to like her since—"

"Stop it. It's not your business," Ruki said after he hit Kou's head.

"Hit me too, Ruki-kun!" Azusa said with shiny eyes.

"Do it by yourself," Ruki said coldly, followed by the other's laugh.

Author's Note

I'M SORRY THE UPDATE WAS TOO LATE!

Many things happened so I was so busy doing this and that. By the way, I would appreciate it if anyone would tell me what do you think about this story since (I suppose) I feel something is incomplete with the story (?)

*Sorry for the bad grammar though. English is not my mother tongue ._.v
