Ayaka's POV
Once I was done checking Riku and be happy for her since she was able to found her memories as well as her brother. What a joyous day for her indeed, but it doesn't mean that one person gets to be happy everyone will.
" Hey Ayaka are you okay? " Kai said in a concerning tone, so he's worried for me....
" I'm okay Kai, no need to worry for me " I said and we proceed recording the song.
" Director, I wanna do this in one take " I said and they all gasped but nodded.
I went in position and closed my eyes as I feel the song in the headphones...
This Life is Mine by Artemis
Mirror, can you hear me?
Do I reach you?
Are you even listening?
Can I get through?
There's a part of me that's desperate for changes
Tired of being treated like a pawn
" SING MORE HIGHER! WE WON'T LET YOU EAT IF YOU DIDN'T HIT THAT HIGH NOTE! " Ayaka's mother locked her in the basement while Ayaka is pleading for help.
" Mother please! I don't want to sing no more! " Ayaka pleaded but it was no use, her mother locked her in the room with no source of food, electricity and air.
....
" Congratulations Ms. Inoyuse for winning again in our contest " The host said to the Inoyuse Family and they all nodded.
Ayaka was there to force her smile and not feeling the pain from her elbows from the belt, her knees that are full of lashes and her back as well. She was about to cry in that evening...
After all, she was only six...
But there's a part of me that stares back from inside the mirror
Part of me that's scared I might be wrong
That I can't be strong...
I've been afraid, never standing on my own
I let you be the keeper of my pride
Believed you when you told me I was nothing on my own
Ayaka had a fight with her parents, she tried to fight her dignity and her rights.
" LISTEN HERE YOUNG LADY! WITHOUT US, YOUR VOICE IS NOTHING " Her father shouted at her and she laughed so hardly.
" Oh forget it, tell me the truth is that you needed me for your gambling addictions! IT WAS NEVER BEEN ME IT'S YOUR STUPID AD- " Ayaka was slapped by his father and grab her hair and slam her in the wall.
" DON'T YOU DARE SPEAK THAT TONE YOU B*TCH! "
Listen when I say, I swear it here today
I will not surrender, this life is mine!
Amazing how you conquered me, chained me in servility and made me see
The world the way you told me to
But I was young and didn't have a way to know the truth
Born to live your legacy
" Remember Ayaka Inoyuse, you are born to defeat your enemies and makes us proud " He fakely care for Ayaka and proceeds to go to the audience bench.
Existing just to fill your needs, a casualty
Of this so-called family that you have turned into a travesty
But I don't intend to suffer any longer
Here's where your dominion falls apart
I'm shattering the mirror that kept me split in pieces
That stood between my mind and my heart
This is where I'll start
I'm not your pet, not another thing you own
I was not born guilty of your crimes
Your riches and your influence can't hold me anymore
I won't be possessed
Burdened by your royal test
I will not surrender
This life is mine
Shame that it took so long to rescue me
From the guilt you used to tie me to your family tree
" Auntie Airi help me! " I screamed while running with Yua to the Cafe Vinyl. Auntie Airi let us in and hide behind her back.
" Airi, sister, can you let us have my daughters? They are quite a pain and I have to scold th- "
" Sister?....SISTER?! I DON'T HAVE A SISTER WHO PUNISHED THEIR CHILDREN FOR THEIR OWN GAIN! " Auntie Airi was really angry and let the cops arrest them.
" Mr. Inoyuse and Mrs. Amano - Inoyuse, you are under arrest for Child Abuse and Abuse of drugs... We will be meeting in the court and of course call your own attorney " The Police takes them away with all of paparazzi surrounding them, putting my parents in shame.
I guess your training failed, you're not in charge I'm free
Your patriarchal prison won't hold me
Now this conversation's finally over
Mirror mirror, now we're done
I've pulled myself together now, my mind and heart are one
Finally one
I'm not your pet, not another thing you own
I was not born guilty of your crimes
Your riches and your influence can't hold me anymore
I won't be possessed
Burdened by your royal test
I will not surrender
This life is mine
I didn't notice I was crying when we ended the song in one take, the director and Kai can't believe I did it in one take. Kai hugged me for comfort and I burst into tears, I saw that Yua and my cousin Futoshi are sobbing in happiness that I fought something so painful for me in the past and now I have nothing to fear.
" Yua.... Futoshi....don't cry you tw- " I was stopped by their sudden hug, I hugged them back and it felt home not until.
" Miss Ayaka, hate to break your happy moments but there are two people finding for you so desperate " The guard said and I nodded and Kai followed me. As I went over to the entrance it was my parents.
" What are you both doing here? " I said in cold tone and Kai was there by my side.
" Ayaka dear, We are sorry for the things we made in the pa- " I didn't hesitate to slap her and punched my dad.
" Do not call my name ever again.... Guards! Take them... I don't want to see their filthy faces " I said and I heard Kai punched my dad, I smiled in triumphant and left with a happy face.
No more toxic parents heh!
