Chapter 10 - Your Smile

Haruka ran out of that cafe, not thinking anything but running. Her eyes burned with tears that formed with fear and pain, refused to be shed. She couldn't see the way she was running. She couldn't hear a single word around her. She was drowning into a dark, deep sea of memories as breathing became hard. The suffocating memories of 15 years of her life, started to break her heart and mind once again as it crashed to her…

Why? she thought. Why? Why? Why?

It shouldn't have been like that in the first place. She knew, she was never loved in that house though she still couldn't figure why they hated Haru this much. Their house was rich. Her mother and father seemed to get along and they were perfect parents for her brothers. She never forgot her mother's gaze at her. With pity, and hate. The shouting voices were the only familiar things to her from her childhood. And the way her brothers continued to beat her... They even locked her guitar when she returned home after her weird but miraculous encounter with Muse. They never listened what she wanted to say, what she managed to say and never believed to her. For them, Haruka was just a liar and a thief. She begged for that guitar for days, months and years. It was the only way she could ask for some help. It was the only way she could continue to live.

Even though she hated that house with all her might, she really wanted to know. She wanted to know why they hated her this much so badly. But she didn't care about it as long as they let her go.

She never asked for permission for leaving though. It was only one moment... That she thought it was better to be out of this. It was the best being away from that people. And she left without thinking again; not even packing clothes for her more than she already wore. She just broke the lock of the door that they hide her guitar and took it with her. The gift from Muse...

She wanted to run away so badly, she wanted to leave so badly. And it was wonderful so far. Being away from her family meant peace for Haruka. Her days were so full of light, everyday shined with joy. She made a lot of friends. Police officers, old ladies and men, shopkeepers, even yakuzas! Meeting with the five guys, her life couldn’t get any better. Yet, it happened. She never thought she would meet with her brothers one day, like this... It was the worst. All of the pain that she managed to overcome came back like someone crashed a wall. Haruka shut her eyes, trying to prevent those memories.

Let it be over, she pleaded over and over again. Let me get out of this.

Then all of a sudden Haruka felt a firm grip on her arm as someone pulled her strongly. Impact was strong so she fell to the ground together with the person as he hugged her tightly. Finally, she became able to hear everything one again as an angry driver shouted to her from his seat.

***

Nino watched everything in an interesting state of shock. He felt the moment when Haru froze, even though he couldn't understand why at first. He heard her calling the man behind her as brother but he couldn't believe his eyes as that brother slapped Haru all of a sudden, his body and mind couldn't cooperate as he only watched her brother to crush her wrist strongly. When Sho and MatsuJun furiously came between them and Haru ran out of the cafe, he thought he could leave the puching to the others, as he ran after Haru not wasting even a second. He knew Haru was scared. He finally understood why she didn't want to tell him about her past. And he finally understands the meaning behind that song.

Being betrayed by what I saw with those eyes,
I choose to forget and run away each time.
The way it is, I'm within the shadows.
If it's now, then I'm still in time for it.
It's awful being hated.


It was horrible. Nino felt a bitter pain, sting to his heart. He always thought that she was bright like sun, giving everyone life but there were things that were killing her slowly. He remembered again her smile when she singed that song. She was hurt. The sadness that hides behind that smile made Nino's heart ache more. She should have talked to them. He knew they could help her. Haru, he thought. I will scold you for this, surely! They were all grown up men and they could have protected her.

When he finally catches up to her beside the road, he barely caught her arm before she could run to road. He pulled her to himself strongly, but falling behind with her as he lost his balance with the impact. Nino hugged her tightly without thinking, trying to protect her from falling. As he felt his back landed on floor, he and Haru were both out of breath. Nino sighed with relief for a moment but his body tensed up again when he felt Haru's body trembling against his. Parting his body from Haru a bit, Nino looked at her face for a second. She wasn't crying but seeing the shock, pain and fear mixed together in Haru's face, strangely hurt him too. He hugged her again, this time desiring to hug her. Nino's arm became tighter around her as he stroked her hair with his other hand. "You can cry, you know," he whispered to her. "I will not let you go."

Haru felt her tears finally found their way as she couldn't resist to Nino's hug anymore. She clings on to Nino's t-shirt strongly as her tears fell from her eyes, soaking Nino's t-shirt.

Her mind was screaming for Muse, but Nino was the one who managed to save her. It was weird, but strangely she felt safe in his arms.

***

When Haru's tears subsided, Nino took her to his home, not wanting to let her go anywhere. They haven't spoken about the events. Haru looked like she was trying to avoid it with all her might. So he left her at his home, excusing himself with food.

And now, his steps lead him to Tokyo Bay, unconsciously. He couldn't erase the voice of Haruka's crying. Seeing her smile was so natural for them. And he realized for the first time, he liked seeing that smile.

His eyes focused to the reflection of sunset which was dancing through the waves when he reached the shore. He sighed heavily as his feelings crushed him once again.

There must be something I could do for her, he thought. There must be something..!

"Why don't you write a song for her?" Nino jumped with surprise as he heard a reflective voice behind him. He turned around, seeing a tall, blonde foreign guy sitting comfortably on a bench. He smiled sweetly and knowingly, waving his hand with a rich attitude. "Come and sit with me for a while," he called out for Nino, not giving him a time to say something.

Nino frowned. The man was awfully familiar to him though he couldn't remember where or when he met him. "Did we met somewhere before?" Nino asked curiously as he sat beside the man.

The man laughed with amusement. "So you already forgot about me?"

Nino observed the man closely. Forcing his memory, he went all the way back to the first year of high school. There was a foreign guy, wearing old, worn out clothes, always playing some songs near the train station... He tried to remember his face but he failed. "You are... from that time..." he said most likely to himself. The man's smile deepened. "But... wait a minute! It has been more than 10 years already! How come are you the same? And you kind of look like you hit the lottery..." he said pointing his now, very fancy and good looking clothes.

The man laughed. His voice, danced around like it was magical. "I won't really open up myself and you weren't the easiest child to believe... You still aren't. I did my best to bring you to the way of music, but apparently I wasn't convincing enough," he giggled a little. "But it seems my precious daughter persuaded you, way more successfully than me," he looked satisfied.

Nino's eyes grew bigger as everything started to make sense, and at the same time everything went crazier. "Your daughter..."

"Yes, my daughter," he said mischievously. Then he becomes serious all of a sudden. "You may have been given my bliss as well as gifted with my abilities, but I will not have mercy to anyone who hurts my daughter directly or indirectly," his eyes shined with a threatening light. "This time, I will close my eyes, because apparently you have no desire to hurt my daughter in the first place. However, be aware of my warning, Ninomiya Kazunari. I value my daughter more than anyone else," he stood up from the bench calmly. He looked at Nino one more time before he disappeared suddenly.

Nino sat there for a bit as he tried to make his head clear. So, first, he now knows the way to do something for Haru. Though he didn't know anything about writing a song, he knew he should try it.

Secondly, he managed to understand that he has some connection with the sudden appearance of Haru's brothers. And he was determined to find how that was possible.

And lastly, he realized he should apologize from Haru, for saying Muse sounded like a third-rate cult... He laughed a little. This was getting crazier than he actually thought but strangely, he didn't hate it.


A/N: Things getting more complicated for me either LOL but I will keep writing! I want to see the ending too!
