****The past of our present shall be the future we seek to change****

Farmhouse, Kagoshima                                  [7:00AM]

{Hina}-[sitting outside alone quietly]

{stranger}-” It's peaceful, right?”

{Hina}-[startled]

{stranger}-[smiles]” I’m sorry I didn’t mean to scare you, dear.”

{Hina}-[smiles back]” It’s okay, Miss Kiara.”

{Kiara}-” I told you to call me Kiara, I’m not that old please.”

{Hina}-[shy]

{Kiara}-” Come in for breakfast, dear.”[heads indoor]

{Hina}-[gets up to get in too]

[at the dinning table]

{Kiara}-” The weather seems a bit cold today so I thought some oat and omelets would be good.”

{Hina}-” Thank you very much.”

{Kiara}-” How is G2’s body?”

{Hina}-” He’s still unconscious.”

{stranger from the train}-[takes a seat at the table]” He’s passed danger he’s just resting now you have nothing to worry about.”

{Kiara}-[strange gaze]” Thank you Sir.”

{stranger from train}-[smiles]” Esha is my name.”

{Hina}-” Thank you Esha, if not for your help on that train G2 might have not made it.”

{Esha}-” I had to help that’s all Miss little dove.”

{Kiara}-[interrupts Esha’s flirt]” But how did you keep a bleeding person from dying from a journey of Tokyo to Kagoshima?”

{Esha}-[getting cocky]” Perks of being a doctor. Sometimes it takes only an aid box and blood donor to save lives, Kiara.”

{Kiara}-[smiles]” Perks of being a doctor indeed Esha.”

{Hina}-” We made it here after arrival thanks to you Ren. I never thanked you properly, so thank you very much.”[bows while standing on her feet]

{Ren}-[sighs with a foul mood]” You think it was for you or that man on bed? I only did it cause Kiara asked me to, so you can save your worthless gratitude.”

{Kiara}-[furious]” Ren.”

{Ren}-[gets up from the table]” I’m done eating, goodbye.”

{Esha}-” What’s wrong with her?”

{Kiara}-[mood goes down tremendously]” She and G2 are not seeing the past eye to eye.”

{Hina}-[confused]

{Esha}-” Is she your daughter?”

{Kiara}-” Non-biological daughter. Their parents died when they were kids, so I took them in.”

{Hina}-” Their?”

{Kiara}-” She had a twin sister.”

{Esha}-” Had you say.”

{Kiara}-[eyes full of tears]” She died because I failed her the way I failed my kids.”

{Esha}-” You did?”

{Hina}-” I think that’s enough Esha, unless of course you’re also a journalist.”

{Esha}-[gets up with a smile]” The breakfast was delightful, Kiara.”
