Childhood

Lia's POV:

"Then... what?" I asked.

"Then... Kyline show up and punched the guy she has always been protecting me. But they we're going to beat her even more." She spoke. I didn't know when this happens and ignore the possibility of this happening when I left him.

"Mom, do you remember the day that Kyline got a black eye on her left eye that's the day she punched a little boy because the boy bullies me, he said I was an orphan." Claire smile while telling those stories.

"I was so guilty every time she gets hurt because of me." Claire said as she looks at me with her teary eyes.

"That's when the time we started to think where is our father? Why wasn't he here to protect us?" Claire said.

"I'm sorry, little girl. I don't want to make you suffer. I just don't want to be with that guy again or meet him again. I hate it when I'm saw him the thing that happened before was repeatedly being replayed in my head on what they did to me. Mom didn't mean to make you two suffer. Mom don't know wants to happen before because I'm thinking how to earn money that time so I can buy what you want, and I didn't even enough time to ask how you two doing." I spoke.

"But Mom that time... we don't need money." Claire said as she stopped for talking for a while.

"We need protection, we need a love from a father and from a mother and a love from a whole family." Claire said.

"We need a love from both of our parents." Claire said.

"Mom, do you still remember when we turn 7 years old?" She looks at me and asked.

"That day that I was late and the two of you got angry. I regret being late at that time." I spoke. That day I had a car accident the driver kept on harassing me to the point I nearly died.

"We weren't angry because your late." She replied as I said, "Then why are you guys angry?"

"It is ridiculous, but we expect you to come home with our dad." She said as she awkwardly laughs.

Kyline's POV:

It isn't lively here at the school. It's different when Claire was here. Claire was still at the hospital so it's so boring.

"Kyline!" Karylle calling me.

"Don't shout, you startled me." I spoke. My eardrum almost broke.

"Sorry, how is Claire's condition?" Karylle asked.

"She's fine, I think she can go home soon and go back to school next Monday." I explain well she has been having a good mood and livelier again.

"Okay, that's good." Karylle said. We were walking at the hallway when I saw her. I was about to run after her when Karylle suddenly holds me up and asked, "Where are you going?".

"I saw a b*tch." I spoke.

"He-hey, don't cause trouble anymore." Karylle said as she grasps to my hands.

"I'm going to slap that b*tch." I said as I shoved his hand away.

"You can't hurt her she was the daughter of the principal here. " Karylle raises her voice.

"And also, didn't Claire told you not to cause trouble?" Karylle asked.

"Why can't I slap her when she did that to my sister?" I asked.

"Your sister doesn't like to be bother by some troubles by those useless persons. So, when she was bullied, she doesn't care if she got hurts. Before, Claire has always been got bullied when you go to work, and she continue to work and study. She was bullied by Mitch and her slaves every time and to avoid it becoming a bigger problem." Karylle said.

"Why didn't you fight back for her?" I asked.

"She always endured everything. She always says, 'I don't like troubles' and then she will leave like nothing happened at all. She will act like it was just a dream she wants to get out." Karylle said.

"Okay, when Claire goes back let's get her to slap that girl." I spoke.

"It's up to you but remember not to act rashly." Karylle said as we continue to walk into the classroom.

We get in the classroom as I saw the teacher comes in. I went to her.

"Ma'am this is the excused letter for my sister, Claire." I gave her the letter that was signed by my mother.

"What happened to Ms. Nishimura? Karylle." She asked.

"She fainted yesterday when we are about to go home." I spoke.

"Sh-she fainted?!" She said with a shocked.

"We already get her to the hospital to get checked up and she was currently confined in the hospital." I spoke.

"What did the doctor say?" The teacher said.

"She was fine now Ma'am, thank you for your concern." I said as I turn my eyes to her.

"Okay, that's good then." She spoke.

"When will she go back to school?" The teacher asked.

"I think she can go back to school on Monday." I spoke.

"Okay, tell her to get well soon." The teacher said as I was about to go to my seat.

"Thank you for helping my sister yesterday." I said to the guy that doesn't like smiling no one other than Aries. I was about to walk to my sit, and he suddenly talk "Is she fine now?" Aries asked.

"Yes." I said as I continue to walk towards my seat and the teacher started discussing about our lesson.

Claire's POV:

"Mom?" I said when I saw my mom sitting beside my hospital bed.

"Your awake." She spoke.

"Yeah, why are you still here? Aren't you going to work?" I asked.

"I got a leave so I can take care of you." She spoke.

"Mom, I can take care of myself there's a lot of nurses here to help me." I spoke.

"Yeah. But I can't let you be alone here." Mom said.

"Okay, fine." I spoke.
