Back in time~ | Ciel Phantomhive.

Sincerity time!~22

You couldn't believe your eyes, a picture of your mother in the basement of the Phantomhive mansion. You eyes caught a book directly under it with a lock on it, you picked up the book and carefully looked over it. "Property of (Mom's name)~" Was written on the front of it with a small sketch of a rose next to it. You realized this was a diary and this only crammed more thoughts and questions into your head, you shook them off and began to look for something to pick the lock with. You couldn't use any hairpins because you didn't keep any in your hair, you silently cursed yourself for being so stubborn when Eri wanted to put a few in you hair earlier that day. You stopped walking when you saw a rose in a vase. "Why hasn't this died yet?" You thought, wrapping your fingers around the delicate flower and picking it up out of the vase. When you looked over it fully, it was a kanzashi with a rose on top of it, that seemed to be made from real petals. You placed it into the lock and gave it a simple turn, unlocking the diary easily. "I didn't even have to pick the lock..Is that what the rose sketch meant?" You thought for a moment before opening the diary and reading the first entry.

(Birth month) (Birth day) 1875

Finally, I thought..
After nine full months I was ready to have my child.
But something happened, as soon as the baby was born they rushed off with it, yelling panicked words. They thought that I was so woozy that I couldn't make out what they were saying, but I caught almost everything. My child is dead, moments after it's birth it died. No one wanted to give me the news, instead they left me lying there for the rest of the day. When evening rolled around, my husband came in with a different baby. I knew it wasn't mine, it had (H/C), indicating it wasn't mine. Even so, I knew that my husband had grew distant and closer to the maid he hired, I needed this baby, mine or not, I was growing lonely.

You finished reading her first entry and you were in a state of shock. You didn't even know who you were anymore, if the woman who raised you and grew up with you wasn't your mother...who was? You hesitantly flipped to the next page and began to read again.

(Birthdate) 1880

Joy!, to the little girl now the age of five!
I've decided to fully take this child and name her (Y/N), She is now the age of five.
We are celebrating her birthday today! I never thought that a child of someone else's blood would smile upon me, As expected I found out who's child this is. The maid, Eri Nakamura is always in a saddened expression when she sees me hold this child, upon this, I knew something was wrong so I decided to do research. When (Y/N), Eri, and (Father's name) fell asleep, I went into his office and found his personal journal... When I read it, I found some very verbal words of how he needed Eri, how he couldn't hold back...I couldn't believe any of this, she was just a normal person who wanted a job for her family and (Father's name) done this to her! I told Eri that I knew everything and she wasn't even shocked, she just broke down and cried into my arms. I knew the pain she was feeling so I told her that my husband would kill me if he found out I knew, so I told her that she could take (Y/N) If that does happen.

Your breath hitched and your eyes grew watery, was it true that you had been by your true mother this whole time? A few of your teardrops landed on the page and a fake page peeled off, holding another secret entry.

May 10, 1883

Eri Nakamura is a pure soul.
She truly is, we grew closer and I even composed a song for her, of course I had to add useless lyrics to cover the real meaning.
(Play music)
She loved me like a mother and so did (Y/N), even though she was completely oblivious the whole situation. I love how they both smile at me with those pure hearts as if they haven't witnessed any danger at all. (Father's name) is also getting very suspicious of my diary entries and it won't be long before he finds it. Therefore I am making a copy of the whole book along with my hairpin and hiding it with the people I trust most at the moment. The Phantomhive's they certainly will hide both items for me and hopefully, (Y/N) will find them. I know this is my last entry and there's absolutely nothing I can do about it except pour my heart into this last message.

(Y/N), you may not be my child but I have always thought of you as one, you helped me in my most desperate time of need and I'm glad to see you at 8 years of age, and if your reading this, take the kinzashi with you. Eri made it especially for you when you grew older.

-Love, Mom

After reading her last entry, you noticed most of her writing was sloppy and strained, with a few dried tears here and there. You closed the book and set it back down in it's rightful place before pulling your hair back and holding it up with the kinzashi you found, you wiped your face with your sleeve before climbing the ladder up to the trapdoor and picking the lock with the kinzashi. You placed it back in your hair, opening the trapdoor and climbing out of it only to be in the middle of what used to be the Phantomhive mansion. You were shocked enough that your dreams were re-playing but what drived you to the point of insanity was when you were pinned against a rock and Eri's voice could be heard in the distance..
