A Kiss & A Contract

Chapter 13

Every one was anticipating, waiting nervously for my answer. I ran away back home without even thinking about school. I left Renge there standing dumb founded filled with all these mix emotions. I ran, ran, and ran until I bumped into someone. I was about to fall but then a pair of hands grabbed and made me standing back up again as I looked up I saw...Renge's Father!!! 

"Oh... sorry sorry sorry." I said quickly bowing. "No, no, no. There's no need to be so polite." He said looking at me and once again he saw through me once again. "Let me guess...Renge confessed to you?" He said. I knew I couldn't keep anything away from this man. I hung my head low and nodded. He raised my head and looked into my eyes. And suddenly it started raining.

"Come with me Ayame there's something I want you to hear, see, and understand. Will you?" He said as he held out his hand. I hesitantly took his hand and he brought me into his limo. He asked me all these questions and he guessed them all correctly like how Renge made a contract with me, how I was kidnapped, how I started to wonder whether I loved Renge or not, how Renge confessed to me. 

"I'm...surprised how you guessed all of that um..." I said quietly. "Just call me "Father" if you like. I've always wanted to be called that by my Daughter-in-Law" he said. I blush madly and stuttered. He started laughing saying how easy it is to read Renge and mine face expression. As the car stopped the rain started to stop and as I saw Renge's father grabbed a guitar and held my hand as he lead me to the top of the hill. 

I saw a beautiful rainbow. And "Father" started to tuned his guitar and played.

                                                                *True Colors*

"You with the sad eyes, Don't be discouraged, oh I realize It's hard to take courage, In a world full of people, You can lose sight of it all, The darkness inside you, Can make you feel so small. Show me a smile then. Don't be unhappy, Can't remember when, I last saw you laughing. This world makes you crazy, And you've taken all you, Can bear, Just, call me up, 'Cause I will always be there. 

And I see your true colors, Shining through, I see your true colors, And that's why I love you. So don't be afraid, to let them show, Your true colors, True colors are beautiful. I see your true colors Shining through, I see your true colors, And that's why I love you, So don't be afraid to let them show Your true colors, True colors are beautiful. Like a rainbow. Oooooh like a rainbow. Can't remember when, I last saw you laughing. Oooooh. 

This world makes you crazy, Taking all you can bear, Just, call me up 'Cause I'll be always be there. So don't be afraid to let them show, Your true colors, True colors are beautiful, I see your true colors, Shining through, I see your true colors, And that's why I love you. So don't be afraid to let them show, Your true colors, True colors are beautiful. Like a rainbow, Oooooh like a rainbow. Like a rainbow."

"You have a very nice voice father." I said without even realizing I said father, I covered my mouth. He started laughing once again. "Hey, Ayame the reason I sung this song is because I want you to know that Renge loves you no matter what and he doesn't care what your like as long as you love him back. He truly loves you and I just him to be happy, but I also hope for you to be happy as well. I want both of you to be happy until the very end." 

"Thank you and there's even a rainbow here too. I...I also like Renge but I don't know what to do with all these emotions that are being held back by my conscious." I said saddening. Father hugged me, "It's okay to cry sometimes Ayame. I just want you to know that Renge and I will always be here for you when you need us." He said holding onto me like as if I was his very own daughter. The hug was warm and gentle it feels like I'm being embraced by Renge. And I cried and notice my feelings towards Renge.
