Chapter 5- Missing you.
Few days have passed ever since the party incident where Gon is now no longer Killua's fiancée. Killua's parents are very disappointed because they really like Gon very much and thought that they are a perfect match. Nevertheless no one can do a thing about it.
Currently Killua is going along the corridor at his house to find Rumi since the Zaoldyeck are in the middle of preparing their wedding. Killua knew that he is supposed to be happy but to be surprise, he is not. All day, his mind is always preoccupied with Gon and he had to held back calling the search team to find out where she is since she has never been in school ever since that incident.
"It really is working! I'm truly going to be rich!"
Killua stopped when she recognize that voice. That voice surely belongs to Rumi, he peeked inside the room and finds Rumi talking to someone on the phone.
"That Killua really choose me! Finally, I can get my hands on his money and not to mention for he is handsome as well."
Killua's letting out a low growl from hearing it. Does this means that Rumi is using him and only want his richness. Its sure been a long time for someone to piss him off this badly.
"So that is your plan, Rumi!?" Killua exclaims and slammed the door open.
Rumi jumped and surprised since she is not expecting Killua to overhear her. However, she had nothing to lose at this point.
"Ah, Killu-kun. There you are! I didn't know that you are here for-"
"Cut that innocent attitude Rumi! I know what are your motives right now! Killua cuts her off and Rumi just smirk while flips her hair.
"Yeah, I just have interest in your money and your body. Nothing more. Besides, we are going to be married anyway. No one can break your so-called-traditions right?"
Killua went paled when he heard that. He knows that no one really can do a thing about it.
Rumi smirks and push Killua away from her room. "Now, my husband. Just wait until we finish our wedding, I'm sure we will have a very grand time". Rumi slammed the door closed leaving Killua who is speechless, he hoped that he could do something about it.
Few moments later….
"So there is nothing we could do!?" Killua bang his fist on the table, looking at his parents who looked at him impassively.
"Son, as a Zaoldyeck, you should have known about it better that there is truly nothing we could do even her motive for marrying you is clear" Silva said, sternly.
"I have to agree and it was your own choice to begin with" Kikyo answer calmly as well while drinking her tea.
"But, still-" Killua look down, hoping there is truly a way out of this.
Kikyo grimaced. "This tea is no good. How come this tea has less taste and fragrance than usual?" Kikyo ask the maid who prepares the tea.
The maid answers, a bit afraid. "I'm sorry. Usually, Gon-sama was the one who brew the tea and since she is not here anymore, so-"
Killua didn't hear the rest of the words the maid speaks. His mind began to drift again at Gon, his eyes started to watered again causing Silva and Kikyo to be surprised.
"What the-, why are you crying, son?" Silva asked, surprised that his son cried since Killua barely ever cries.
"Oh, my dear Killu! Is something the matter?" Kikyo rushed to her son side, wanting to know what's wrong.
Killua snaps out and surprised. He tried to wipe his tears but instead of the tears stopping, the tears began to leak out more.
"I- I don't know. Why- why am I crying? This is just like what had happened in the party"
Before Silva and Kikyo asks more about it, the door opened and revealing Zeno who is Killua's grandfather coming inside the room.
"Well, well. Hello there!" Zeno cheerily asked while the others are not in a happy mood.
"Father, why are you here?" Silva ask, surprised that his father has come.
"What are you talking about? My grandson is going to be married! Of course I have to see this rare moment and ah- even the groom is having happy tears. It's been a long time since I see you crying, Kill!" Zeno continued to blabber on, completely ignoring the fact everyone wants to cut him off.
"G- Grandpa. There is nothing to be happy about" Killua said after finish wiping his tears away.
"What are you talking about Kill? It is a very joyous occasion after all. I mean, you finally trade your fiancée away from someone you like." Zeno said.
That statement made Killua's tears that had stopped began to leak again. Instead of quiet sobbing, he began to scream right now causing everyone to be surprised and rushed to calm him down.
"What-What? Did I says something wrong?" Zeno said, obviously clueless.
"Father, why don't I tell you everything that had happened when you are not here and take care of Killua, Kikyo!" Silva said and usher his father outside.
Few moments later…
"Ah, so that's what had happened" Zeno said after understood everything and they goes back inside to find Killua had calmed down and Kikyo pat his head.
"So, you think that there is a way out of this?" Silva asked.
"Truthfully, no" that statement made Killua grunt.
Zeno looks and Killua and sigh. "Well, what can I expect? You took your wife's first and that already sealed it, nothing we can do about it"
Killua went wide eyed and face his grandfather "What did you just said?"
Zeno looks a bit surprised. "Nothing we can do about it"
"Not that one! Before that one!" Killua said.
"Err.. that already sealed it?" Zeno said.
"Before that one either!" Killua is screaming right now causing everyone trying to calm him down.
"Um.. you took your wife's first?" Zeno said.
"THAT'S IT!" Killua yelled and pumped his fist on the air causing everyone to sweatdrop.
"Son? What are you talking about?" Silva asked, not knowing what had happened.
"Well, actually I wasn't Rima's first" Killua said.
"Hm? She wasn't your first? Well, that changes everything" Zeno said.
Killua started to feel hope already "Really!?"
"Yeah, since she wasn't your first. She can't be the Zaoldyeck unless she is your fiancée at first, is she?" Zeno looks at Killua.
Killua had a sad look before shaking his head in immediate no "No, she isn't"
"I see, that mean's she is ousted." Zeno said.
"YEEEAAAHHHH!" Killua yelled and jumped up and down.
Silva interrupts. "if the wife can be ousted then is the fiancée could be ousted as well?"
Zeno look at Silva strangely "Why yes, just made Killua say farewell and kiss her then she is no longer Killua's fiancée and haven't we already talked about this a long time ago?"
Silva bowed almost immediately "Sorry father that must have slipped off my mind"
"Either way, Rumi will not be my wife!" Killua said, happy about the news.
"Well, if you want to choose someone else again, you need to see your fiancée and says farewell." Zeno said.
Killua turns gloomy immediately when he remembers Gon. His tears are all gone now so he is just sat near the corner, looking really lifeless making everyone panicked.
Another few days later…
Killua was glad that Rumi was gone and never bother him again. Right now, he knows that he has in love with Gon and he hates himself for always hurting her. He is still waiting on the news on the search team that he and his parents had sent to find out where Gon is, he knows that it is impossible to finds her at her house since the Zaoldyeck had bought it to prevent her escape so now, all he can do was wait for the news.. Moments later, he was back to his own room.
Somehow, he felt that his room is bigger than he remembers, even though his room is not being renovated and feels like something is missing.
`More like someone` was all Killua can think about.
He flops on the bed and read Gon's diary. He found the diary just below the pillow, looks like Gon forgot to take it. Even though there is no clue inside, he reads it to know more about her. He takes the blame for not knowing she was bullied by the classmates in school and he always force her. All he can do was crying about it for he can't change the past.
"Oh, Gon. If only you are here, I swear that I will treat you right this time. I wish you are here right now, so I could treat you the way you're supposed to. I'm sorry for everything, I wish that when we meet again, you will forgive me." Killua softly mumbled with a sobs while hugging the diary, he keeps crying and sobbing until he finally fell asleep, while still hugging the diary.
