That One Girl (A Hunter x Hunter Fanfic)

They Meet Again 2

*Sherry's POV*

A week has passed after the incident in the Underground Auction and it seems like people have already forgotten about it. Well, those people who died deserves it; it's the price for their greediness. Of course I am not including the innocent people who died. I am very sorry for them because they have to die for those scumbags...

*door opens*

It's Kira...

"Why are you so blunt today, Sherry?" Kira asked me.

"None of your business..." I replied

"You're cold as always. Well, I don't want you to sulk here in this room for all day. Why don't you go out? Anyway, the sun's beautiful for a walk." Kira told to me with a warm smile.

"I don't want to---" and then he grabbed my hand and we went out of the room. The next thing I knew is that I am riding in a bike with him.

"I thought we will walk?"

"Didn't you say that you don't want to walk?"

"That's why we're on a bike?"

Kira just laughed while I tried so hard to conceal my happiness.

I am happy when I'm with Kira... He's a brother to me. I felt blessed because I have found a person so true like him. He's always there for me.... Just like that person was...

"You're crying."

Kira told me that and to my surprise I was indeed really crying.

"Here let me wipe it out---"

"No, I'm just fine Kira."

"You sure?"

"Yes." then i dried up the tears.

Kira just looked at me with sad eyes and after a while he continued to paddle.

"You're thinking about him?"

I just looked away.

"Ryu--"

"Don't call me like that." I snapped.

Kira just gave a deep sigh and then he said in a serious but sincere tone...

"I hope someone will show you the beauty of moving on and forgiving..."

I don't know why but I was hurt with his words. Maybe its because they were true. Maybe I just need that one person who can teach me how to forget painful memories.

"Put me down Kira"

"Eh?"

"Just stop!"

And then Kira stopped the bike.

"I'll just go somewhere."

"Where?"

"Anywhere" and then I left Kira.

"Just don't forget to go home before 7:00!" Kira shouted from afar.

I ran so that Kira cannot follow me around. I just need to be alone. As I was running away, painful nemories kept on flashing through my mind.

*flashbacks*

Sherry hears some voices in pain, it was her family. She was hidden in a closet so that she won't be discovered. Scared, she tried to peek in a small hole and she witnessed how her entire family were mutilated and killed.

"Just always remember that we love you...be strong" these are the last words her mother uttered before she passed away.
