Hey people, Sorry for not posting anything on Tuesday. School gets pretty crazy right before winter break
Hiro and Sora were still laying on the ground as if they had no care in the world. Honestly everyone wished that they had more moments like these. When you can lay down, take a deep breath, and remember what life is truly about.
"So Hiro, how in the world did you find a place like this. It seems impossible to just trip upon it." Sora asked "Well that is a good point." Hiro said. Logic did not seem to qualify as a good answer now. Hiro recollected the past years of his life. He and his father would run into the forest all the time on secret missions. He would tell Hiro to go find campion petals and Koki'o petals. Hiro hated disappointing him, but he could never find the petals on his own. That was when he was five.
"So, Hiro can you tell me something about your dad. He seems like an interesting man." Hiro had never told anyone about his father before, but if Sora was interested then why not? "Well we always had this cabin we would go to in the summer. We would go fishing for Silver biddy's all the time. At night we would set up the fire and he would tell stories of fairies, vampires and even angels. He had always been obsessed with mythical creatures. I always thought that he was being absurd, but I never questioned him about it." Hiro began crying a bit, he remembered how kind his dad had always been. They would take morning walks in the forest and read fantasy books together.
Hiro knew he was not done with his story yet, "but then, around the age of 9 I became distant from him. He would ask me to come on walks with him almost everyday, and everyday I would have an excuse. I was so cruel!!" Hiro began crying hysterically, Sora looked at him, but said nothing. He knew Hiro needed comfort, but he had no idea what to do. "Hiro I know that is not true, you are too kind to do such a thing." Sora looked up at the sky, it was so vast and strong. He wished to be like that, he wanted to help Sora, but he was too weak.
"Hiro, I know you are upset, but you never answered my question." Hiro wiped away his tears, startled by how weak he had become all of a sudden. He was not used to opening himself up to anyone, this was such a new feeling. "Right, I'm so sorry I didn't want to make things awkward. So, when I turned twelve years old I became a monster. I cared for no one but myself. I remember leaving the house in the middle of the night and returning in the morning, my mom would ask me where I went but I would just go up to my room without a single reply. Neither of my parents had any control of me and I was so lonely and depressed that I did not care much. I would hit them and curse frequently." Hiro stopped, it was becoming all too much for him to talk about, but he knew that if he was going to confide in anyone, it would be Sora. So with a shaky voice he continued his tale. " It was march 13, I was just getting out of school when I received a phone call. It was mother, she was saying something, but I couldn't quite make out what it was. I yelled at her to stop being a wimp and tell me what was going on. 'you're father is dead' she said suddenly. I remember how I stopped breathing. It felt like an eternity, just me holding that stupid cell phone. I remember running home and breaking a few vases. I was letting it all out. Everything I had felt, everything I was thinking, every emotion in my body." Sora decided what to do, he walked straight up to Hiro and hugged him with all his might. " I'm so sorry Hiro, I wish I was there for you then." He whispered gently into Hiro's ear.
"Get off me!! I'm not done with my story. So as I was saying, apparently I was so caught up in my own life that I hadn't realized my father was sick. I was such a egotistical jerk!" Hiro yelled so loud that all the birds went flying out of their nests from fright. "Finally after the funeral, I was heartbroken, I never even got the chance to tell my dad I loved him. I recall running into the forest, my mom was calling out for me but I ignored her. Then out of nowhere my father appeared. He came up to me and kissed me on the forehead, right here." Hiro pointed to his forehead." I told him how sorry I was and that I loved him so much. All he did was nod his head softly and he began running in one direction. I started chasing after him, but he was so fast. I kept running though, I was not going to lose him again. It was dark and there were tears in my eyes, but I kept running and running and running. All of a sudden I stumbled on a branch and landed on the ground headfirst. I lost consciousness after that. A few hours later I woke up, the sun was already rising and here I was."
Sora could not believe what he was hearing, it seemed that Hiro did not yet understand what he was saying, and Sora was not ready to break the news to him. He would have to investigate further. " Sora, are you ok, you have been staring into space for the past five minutes."
"Huh, oh sorry I just have something on my mind. It is not of your concern yet." He quickly replied. Hiro's face turned a bit red, why was Sora keeping all these secrets from him? "So Sora, why don't you tell me more about yourself. I bet you also have some interesting stories." Hiro asked. " Ok, fine why not?" Sora replied. "So I was ten years old at the time...
"Bang" Hiro and Sora jumped up. From nowhere a large shadow appeared and began circling the two boys. " Hiro get out of here!!" "No" Hiro yelled. "I am not leaving you behind."
"I'll be fine Hiro I got this. You must get out. NOW!!" Hiro had never seen Sora like this, Hiro began running as fast as he could. The tree was just up ahead, he can make it. Hiro turned around just as Sora pulled out a sword from nowhere. " Holy crap!!" Where did Sora get that. Hiro watched as Sora slashed away at the creature . He knew what he was doing, Hiro realized.
As Hiro ran through the portal, he quietly asked, "Sora what are you?"
