Anga's Origin

Chapter 6: Forgiveness

About 2 years had gone since Anga received his cutie mark. He started coming up with various designs and blueprints for mechanical wings for earth ponies. While in the very early stages, the things he was making were extraordinary. So much so that he already had a company ask him if they could use a part of his design for one of their projects. Anga was becoming a successful engineer, and he was only 14.

Despite his success, he didn't like to show his face around other ponies because of his ear. He was self conscious about it and whenever someone would ask about it, he'd get flashbacks to that day. He would start trembling, getting the feeling of losing Merry Loo again.

Merry Loo saw this and wanted to do something about it. She reached out to many different ponies to help fix it, no idea really striking her as perfect. Not until she came across one pony from her past that had the perfect idea.

She walked up to his room with excitement for Anga and the surprise she had for her adopted son. She knocked on the door with a smile on her face. Anga opened the door and was a bit taken back with the unusually large smile Merry Loo had.

"Yes? What is it, Miss Merry Loo?" He asked.

"Anga, I have a surprise for you."

"Oh, thank you. What is it?"

Then she stepped aside, "I will let him give it to you." Anga's jaw dropped. Behind Miss Merry Loo stood a pony that he was all too familiar with. The fact that he would do something for him astounded Anga. There stood Suiter, with a bag in his magical grasp.

"Hey, Anga. Long time no see." He said, almost blushing. Anga had to take a moment to process what was happening. His old friend, who kicked him out and was basically told they were no longer friends was here in Anga's new home.

"Suiter.. what.. what are you doing here? I had thought you wanted to cut any ties with me." Anga said.

"Yea.. I'm so sorry about that.. back then, I was just kinda.. confused. My parents had always told me to stay away from homosexuals. So I acted as though my parents would act. I thought about that for the past two and a half years.. then I heard what happened and I saw Miss Merry Loo in town. She told me that you were kinda self conscious about the whole ear thing." Suiter said. Anga put his hoof to his now scarred half ear.

"Y-yes.." Anga said shyly.

"Well, that got me thinking, I should do something to make up for what I did.. so I came up with this." Suiter used his magic to lift out a black top hat with a red stripe. Anga's mouth dropped even more. He never expected his old friend to make him something like this. Especially something this amazing.

"Suiter.. I.. I love it!" He said with a smile, letting Suiter place it on his head. It fit perfectly.

"Knee it fitted your style. I can also adjust it for when your noggin gets bigger, too. Oh, and that's not all." Suiter then pulled out a cooler and red bow tie and watch. "The whole collection."

Anga was nearly in tears. To think that they both cared so deeply for him.

"T-thank you.. thank you so much!" Anga pulled them both into a group hug, smiling as wide as he could.

"Heh, don't get me wrong, I'm still straight. But.. I hope you can forgive me for my homophobic act."

"This is more than enough of an apology."

From then on, Anga and Suiter remained friends forever, and Anga would wear that hat nearly twenty four seven.
