Chapter 53 Mother's Desire
I don't own Kamen Rider Den-O or Overwatch
Akira stares at Misaki and he Said: "What are you doing here?"
"I came here for Miri." Misaki said.
He frowns. "Urara, take the kids to the other side."
"Ok Akira." Urara said with a frown as much as she like to confront Misaki she knows the kids shouldn't see this.
The two sat a table and he said: "How did you get out of jail?"
"I got a sickeness that prevented my singing and it will kill me later on." She said.
Akira frowns a bit.
"Because of that they decided since I was going to die and I couldn't sing anymore I was punished enough to not be in jail but I am on probation." Misaki said.
"I heard they give some petty criminals freedom if they're going to die, but why go after Miri after all that you've done?" He said.
"I'm dying so I figured I might as well see her one last time before the end. To be honest I'm scared to find out what the end would be. Is there an afterlife like some people believe or do we just fade out of existence as we die?" Misaki questions while hugging herself.
Akira just stares at her. "So, you want to raise her."
"I would like to try actually try to but I doubt you will let me see her." Misaki said.
"After what you did, it will be a miracle, since why should I even let you, your a terrible person." Akira said.
"Yeah you're right." Misaki said as she looks down.
He grabs her neck surprising her as his hamon healed her.
"There, now you can leave. You don't have the sickness so theres no reason to see her."
"How?" She questions in surprise.
"I have my ways." He said.
"But, I want to be with Miri." She said.
"Why do you care so much about her when you wanted to hit her?!" He yells at her.
Misaki looks away at that.
"Because while I was in jail they asked why didn't I give her up for adoption when I gave birth to her or aborted her which made me think." Misaki said.
"Well your too late, Miri is happier with me. I refuse to let her go back to that old life, or didn't you call her a cheap date." He said.
"I did." She said.
Urara came. "Maybe there is a way."
"A way?" Misaki questions.
"Maybe, you can both pretend to be married." She said.
Both of them become shocked and surprised at that.
"You want me, to act like her husband?!" He points at Misaki.
"Yes. Miri doesn't know of her mother's true feelings for her when they last saw each other but she believes Misaki does love her." Urara said.
He looks at Misaki as she looks down, he grunts thinking about it.
Akira sighs and puts a hand towards her.
She looks at him in surprise.
"Let's get it over with, just for Miri." He said.
She nods in agreement.
She holds his hand and he said: "Come on, we still have time before we have to pick up Miri, but you'll have to work here if you want a place to stay."
"Thank you." She said to Urara.
Urara smiles. "It's nothing."
"So where do I start?" Misaki asks.
"Just wash dishes for now." Akira said
"Where's the kitchen?" Misaki asks.
"Follow me." Urara said leading Misaki to the back.
Akira rubs his head.
"Well looks like Akira bad a problem with the nasty woman." Momotaros said.
"Well she was a terrible mother." Urataros said.
"Sometimes when we are on a death sentence it can make us change." The Owner said.
Later
Akira and Misaki were at the school as they waited for Miri.
"So, this is the school you put her in? It looks nice." Misaki said.
They saw Miri come out and she got excited. "Mama!" She hugs her.
"Miri." She mutters before hesitatingly hugging her back.
"You came back." She said.
"Yes, also we decided to live together Miri." Akira said.
"Really?" She asks excited.
"Yes, mommy and daddy are going to live together." Akira forced a smile.
"Yay!" Miri cheers happily.
The two went together with Miri as she holds they're hands.
Miri was smiling happily and excitedly.
"Mama and papa are now together."
Akira looks at her and smiles since her happiness is something he cares about.
They arrived at the cafe and Miri runs up to Urara. "Urara!"
"Miri! Did you have fun in school?" She asked.
"Yes." Miri nodded.
"Well go watch tv while we take care of a few things." Urara said.
Miri nodded and goes to a nearby tv.
Misaki and Akira looked away from each other, Akira didn't want to face her and Misaki was very nervous.
Miri looks at her parents. "Aren't you happy together?"
They got nervous and Akira smiles putting a arm around Misaki. "No, we are, it's just a long day."
Miri got confused before watching TV again.
Misaki got surprised at the action Akira did.
"Don't get any ideas." He whispers.
"I understand." Misaki said.
"I'll be going back to work." Misaki goes to the kitchen.
Akiras nodded and he goes back to work to serve tables since he had to leave Urara alone to pick up Miri.
I hope I can keep this up long enough. Akira frowns.
Misaki washes dishes and looks outside a window thinking about her life.
Maybe this is what I need.
Note: Akira now has to pretend to be married to Misaki since it would make Miri happier, and he wasn't going to let her take Miri after what she did, so this is the best compromise.
