Jotaro Kujo (Part 6) - Remember Us

See Family

We decided to go on a little road trip to New York, and bring Jolyne with us. I called the household ahead of time to inform them that we would be arriving a day from then. I also told them Jotaro's situation. Florida to New York will take almost 24 hours, so it will be exhausting. Surprisingly, Jotaro and Jolyne decided to help out with the driving.

What was even more surprising was that Jotaro was the one to drive most of the way.

I decided to drive the home stretch to our destination, since I knew where to go and Jolyne was fast asleep in the back seat. I knew where to go because of the file in the Speedwagon Foundation. I learned some new information as well. It would be perfect for Jotaro.

We arrived at a very big house.

"Wow," Jolyne gawked. "What is up with ya'll and big houses? The last I visited Great Granpa and Gramma, they were living somewhere else.:

I said gawking as well, "We all know that that's not a normal house."

The three of us went to the front door of the massive home before us. I took the initiative to knock.

I heard a pitter-patter of quick footsteps. As they reached the door, the door slammed open.

But I saw no one.

There was a gasp, "Jolyne?"

I was taken aback at the voice in front of me. I couldn't see the source of the voice. I could only assume it was...

"Shizuka?" Jolyne said, surprised. She came forward and opened her arms.

Suddenly, a little 12 year old girl appeared out of no where. She had sunglasses on her head. She jumped into Jolyne's arms. "Wow, it's been so long!"

Jolyne said, "You're just as tall as I am."

Then she saw Jotaro. She squinted at him as if trying to remember who he was, then she looked at me confused. She has never seen me before, but it was probably a long time since she saw Jotaro. Last time I saw her, she was a baby.

"Who's there-?" A familiar said. "Jojo!" Came forward was the thing that was new in this household. "Is that really you?"

"Mom," Jotaro gasped.

Tears sprung from Holly's eyes as she came forward and embraced him in a tight hug. The two hugged tightly and exchanged words with each other in Japanese.

"I missed you so much," Jotaro muffled in her shoulder. "How... how long has it been? You're my mother... right?"

Holly cried, "Yes, you are. My one and only son. Where have you been all this time?"

"I don't know."

"Well you're here."

"I know."

She gave him a kiss on his temple. "I'm so glad that you are here."

Soon we were all inside. Jotaro had his composure back. He stayed close beside me on the couch. Jolyne and Shizuka went somewhere else. Holly sat on the other side of her son.

Holly was getting up there in age. Her blind hair was peppered in gray hair. She had a few wrinkles. She seemed so happy to see her son after so long. She said to me, "Thank you for bringing him here."

"No problem at all," I replied. "I'm so happy that he has a supportive family. I had to get him here." I glanced up him.

He quickly looked away from me. He gulped.

Was something... wrong?

Instead of pestering him, I slid a supporting hand over his.

Holly said, "I'm glad he has someone like you." She gave me a knowing smile.
