Final Fantasy VII(Oneshots)

Argument

Silence engulfed the room,nobody speaking except for the children that didn't know what to do.They had just witnessed an argument that still wasn't settled despite happening three hours ago.Since usually,one of them would apologize before it gets out of hand but both of them was only silent.This was all because of what happened a few hours ago.The same line that triggered every fight.

'If your not even going to use it! Why not just throw it away!'

Denzel had already memorized the actions and words that followed after the line.Cloud would counter with a few words and few minutes later,he would apologize.This always made the argument short and petty.It was only due to him not answering the phone calls she provided that made her lose patience.Cloud was starting to get impatient with her attitude.He did not answer her calls but he did make sure to check her voice mails and he made it clear to her.However,that wasn't enough to soothe Tifa.

"Tifa? Cloud? Are both of you okay? " Denzel spoke,hoping to calm the two of them.

Their heads turned only to face Denzel and both of them gave a nod before looking away.Soon,there was tension in the air and the hours passed by like flowing water.Dinner only resulted in cutleries hitting the plate.Not a single word was exchanged throughout the entire day between the both of them.

"I have had enough of this!" Marlene let out a burst."Tifa!Do you hate Cloud?"

Tifa flinched as the girl's question hit her straight to the face."No."

Seeming satisfied with the answer,Marlene turned to Cloud."Do you hate Tifa?"

"No," he replied,the question similarly hitting him.

"Why are both of you fighting? You don't even hate each other!" Marlene continued her burst.

"Marlene is right.Please make up," Denzel proceeded to push Cloud and Tifa to the room and closed the door.

Both of them shifted awkwardly around each other.Their argument had to be solved due to the help of the children living with them.Despite that,both of them unsure whether to say something first.

"I-" Cloud and Tifa faced each other,their words clashed. "I'm sorry."

Their thoughts unleashed at the same time.Smiles finally returning on both of their faces.

"Will you forgive me? It was really immature on my part," Tifa faced the floor,guilt still present.

"I will.It was partly my fault too.I should answer the phone more often.Otherwise,there is no use to it," Cloud said,a small smile tugging at his lips.

They exchanged smiles and engulfed each other in a hug,knowing that the argument played a part.It helped them to understand each other better.The door opened,as they found Denzel with Marlene behind him.Cloud and Tifa faced each other and nodded.

"We're fine now," both of them said,which made Denzel smile.

"Let's hope we won't get in a argument similar to this again Cloud," Tifa giggled lightly.

"Yeah.Being on the receiving end of your anger is no joke.It's a good thing it wasn't in your nature to hit people that made you angry," Cloud joked,feeling contented that they had finally engaged in a conversation..

"Thats true."

They exchanged smiles,all four of them.
