[Chapter 26]
(Flaire)
We goofed around with the kids for a while. I liked their names actually. The girls names were:
Peach
Sasha
Amanda
The boys names were:
Ahron
Sen
Such unique names. And they're the most adorable creatures I have ever seen! They're so cute! >3< <3 <3 <3.
Sadly, we had to take our lunch and say our goodbyes. "I wish we could hang out soon!" Amanda shouted while embracing me. I embraced her as well, then the others came too.
"Yeah, it was fun" Sen agreed. And so is the others. I thought that the kids were the only one hugging me. But I was surprised when I felt someone hugged me from the back.
I quickly stood up and walked behind a tree. I heard laughs and giggles but Ethan's laugh surfaced more. That guy! I hate him! He always plays with my feelings!
"Come on, you act like a kid." He said while walking towards me. I gave him a death glare as I looked at him with his wide grin.
"You called me a kid" I said with a warning tone. He laughed "Stop whining about it and lest just eat, I'm starving." He said as he aggressively grabbed my hand that led me to his arms.
"Do you want to eat or no?" He said seriously. I didn't bother to look at him. "I want of course! You know me right? Always hungry!" I shouted as I quickly backed away from him. But he still didn't let go of my hand.
"Okay, come on then" He said while walking infront of me. When we saw the kids, we waved our final goodbyes.

We arrived...at a restaurant? What the h*ck is he thinking? Does he wanna get beat up?
"W-Why are we here?" I asked, panicked. He walked inside and I just followed him. People are looking directly at us. How come? I don't know, maybe the holding hands part will be missed. What the h*ck is he planing? He's been holding my hand since the minute we've left the park!
"Ethan, we're not supposed to go i---" I tried to talk to him.
"Dad!" He shouted. Wait? DAD?! 0_0!!!
"Dad?" I blurted out. "Yeah, he's my father. Owner of the restaurant, so your foods free" He explained. So that's why he didn't look any shy at all.-__-
We walked towards an old looking man, but at the age of my father and mother. He smiled and looked at me. "Dad, this is my friend. Flaire. Flaire this is my dad." I smiled and nodded.
"Nice to meet you at last" He said stretching his arms to offer a shake hand. I took it and shook hands with his father.At last? So...he knows me after all.
He let go and looked at Ethan's hand intertwined with mine. I quickly took my hand from him.
I smiled awkwardly. What am I supposed to do? Hug him?! Oh no, that wasn't right. I shook my head to take off the thought.
"So, what brings you here?" His father asked him. "Nothing, I just came by and say hello, it's been a long time dad" He said.
"Yeah, I'm glad you got to think of coming back." Ok, I'm really out of place in here.
"Uhmmm, so. You guys had lunch?" His father asked looking at me and Ethan. "Not yet." Ethan said.
"Oh, why don't you join me for lunch?" He offered. "No dad, I told you. We just passed by" Well I don't think so, you dragged me all the way here.
"No son, I insist. I haven't been with you for a while, I want to spend time with you" His father explained. Ethan scrathed the back of his head and sighed. "Alright" A wide and satisfying smile plastered on his dad's face. Now I know that they've been apart for a long time. But, how did Ethan get to story about me?
"Internet" Ethan said. Oooohhhh. Ok.

We walked to the garden of this restaurant. Don't tell me were gonna have our lunch here. I saw table and chairs beside of a fountain. Wow, this is amazing.
The place looks like a paradise. Lots of flowers and trees. "So, what do you guys want for lunch? Ms aspire?" He said while sitting on of the chairs.
"Anything would be fine for me Mr. Lee" I said. "And anything would be much fine if you seat down now." Ethan said in the corner of my eye, sitting infront of his father.
I took my seat and stayed quiet. "So, tell me Ethan. Is she your girlfriend?"
I stiffened to the question. "Uh..." He hummed as he looked at me Awkwardly. "No, Mr. Lee, I'm a friend of h-him" I stammered.
"Oh, is that so. How'd you explain the holding hands earlier?" He asked with a taunting tone.
"......" No one responded. "So! What will we have today?" A waiter asked. And at that moment, I was finally relieved. Thanks for interrupting.
"We'll take the family meal please" Mr. Lee said to the waiter.
We spent the whole time waiting for the food to be served and full of awkwardness. The food came and a wide smile formed in my lips. I'm freaking hungry.
I thought what they served is just that. But...guess I was wrong. There's a whole pile of dishes and desserts for just a family meal!
I wanted to eat now but they won't even move a muscle. Ethan just stare at me like a lunatic. His father...well, they are doing the same. Like father like son.
"Go on. Help yourself" His father told me. My eyes lit up in delight. "Really? But how about you guys?" I asked them.
"I'll eat later. You guys go eat." His father said.
"But, Mr. Lee, won't you starve?"
"Kid, just call me Derek." His father said. I nodded in response. "Uhmmm...ok. But d-Derek, won't you starve?"
"No, I'm fine." He said.

The day ended well actually. I found out that his family knew about his abilities. They left Ethan alone for a few years, Derek said that they needed to work for Ethan's future. But, unfortunately, his father works alone now. Ever since his mother died a few years ago.
"Hey Flaire, what do you think of dad?" Ethan asked. I looked at him and smiled.
"He's fine, nice too" I complemented. He looked away as we were walking in the park. We spent a lot of time in the restaurant,talk about nonsense too.
He's dad was a great guy.
*Blug!!!*
I suddenly stopped walking with him. "You heard that?" I asked him. He stopped walking and listened to the sound.
"What sound? I didn't hear anything" I know I heard something.
I looked around and saw a glint of light behind the tree at the center of the park. "You see that then?" I asked him again.
He looked at the phase where I'm looking. "Yeah..." He whispered.
"Come on" I said as I walked towards the light.
"Wait! Flaire, we don't know what that is!" He shouted. I didn't bother to care, I just walked towards it. It's like, it's pulling me. Pulling my soul.
"Flaire..." A voice called. What was that? who is it?
I walked towards the light and a white door appeared. "Flaire..." Again! who is that?!
I held the door know and opened it. I felt my body numb. I didn't feel anything. Everything was...black.
