The Desmonds [Damianya]

-Never Again-

Tap....tap.....tap.....

Haru was at a table in front of a balcony. She called the "gateway to wonderland" because in front of the table was a beautiful scenery of plants and flowers. In winter, she thought it looked even more beautiful because of the snow covering everything and the faint lights outside illuminating the plain canvas.

She tapped her pen a few more times before biting the end of it.

"ugh! What is up with this question???"

She was finally fed up and so she took her notebook and went to her father's study.

She knocked on the door.

"come in..."

Damian was hovering over paperwork  deals, and letters.
He shifted his attention towards Haru.

"what seems to be bothering you?"

"this question!" she winned feeling hopeless.

"you are studying for the entrance exam?"

"yup, it's only a month away..."

He took the paper from her and analyzed the question before responding.

"alright get a chair and come beside me..."

She dragged a chair and sat on it.
Damian cleared his desk of all his work and put a cup full of pens.

He explained the concept of the question but not the answer because he wanted her to figure it out himself
----

A few minutes later, Haru scribbled some answer on her paper.

She nervously gave him the worksheet.

"they are all correct, well done!"

She wasn't happy that she got the answers right, she was happy because of the praise she had received from her father...

She put the chair back and went to leave when she heard him speak.

"Haru you know you could just have a seat a that desk over there and whenever you need help you can come to me"

"thank you but Haru wants to work hard without disturbing papa, I will come to you when I need help..."

She walked out of the study.

"such a hard worker... She reminds me of... Me..."

He was having flashbacks from his childhood...
----
Past:

"um father... I need... er... Some help..."

"why do you need help? Demitruis never needed help? Be more like your brother..."

"oh, sorry I will leave now..."

He shut the door behind him.

"that child wasting my time like that..."
----
Present:

"that's right, I will give Haru the support I never had... And Levi... from the pressure of being like his elder sister... Society can be cruel and can leave you for dead..."

He went back to reading letters and deals.

He put a letter through a paper shredder.

" ugh... George and his desire for an arranged marriage... As if I will give up my daughter for status... That idiot..."

----

A few hours had passed and Anya had returned with Levi from the his check up.

"that took an awfully long time! I left at 12:00pm... Now it's 3! Damian must be so worried..."

While she was freaking out, Levi was sleeping peacefully in the stroller...

Damian was not just worried he was worried sick.

"Anya! What took so long? Do you know how worried I was?"

Suddenly Anya broke down.

"waaah! I am sorry I made you think that I was aressted by the secret police!"

Damian was panicking. He never meant to make her cry.

He pulled her in for a hug.

"I am sorry I yelled at you... I was just worried..."

She had calmed down by then. He was flustered, cheeks red and everything.

"Mama and Papa are flirting..."

"no we are not!' Damian snapped.

Anya had an idea. she was striking a smug face.
She turned back to her usual expression and looked up at him making their eyes lock.
She then gave him a kiss.

Damian had turned fully red and collapsed on the floor.

"ew, mama and Papa are definitely flirting!" she said in disgust.

"sigh... We are married sy-on boy you should have gotten used to it by now... Maybe it was Haru's comment?"
