…THE GHOST OF TRUTH & LIES,,,
CHAPTER I: THE FIRST DREAM
Disclaimer: I do not own ghost hunt!!!
"I came too early today. Naru and Lin aren't here yet." Mai said when she entered the SPR building.
'I guess I could take a nap while waiting. I still feel sleepy for staying up late last night anyway.' She thought and lay down on the couch.
It didn't take too long before she was off to dreamland.
In the dream…
"Wow! What a huge and beautiful house! I wonder what it's like inside?" Mai said thinking aloud.
After saying this, she found herself suddenly transported inside the house. One of the doors in the house was open and she can hear voices from the said room. She walked closer to the open door to see and find out what's happening…
"Greyson, please! You promised Yuui you'd stay. Please don't leave!"
"I'm sorry, Yuuki! But we knew from the start that an arrange marriage like ours can never be successful. Yuui's a smart girl for her age. I know she'll understand."
"But still… You promised her! Don't leave her! Don't leave me! I'm begging you. Stay with us like you said before."
"No! I lied. Fine! I did. So what? I don't love you anymore, Yuuki! Yes, I love our daughter but I love Galatea more. I'm sorry."
Greyson walked towards the walk-in closet to get his clothes and pack. When he opened it, he was surprised to find inside a crying Yuui. Their 8-year-old daughter obviously heard everything.
"Yuui…" Greyson and Yuuki said in unison.
"Daddy…" the girl said and hugged her father.
"Dad… I love you! I really want to ask you to stay but that would be selfish of me. if you'll be happier away from us, I'm willing to let you go." She said while her tears continue to fall as she hugged her father tight for a last embrace.
After that scene, Mai suddenly got transported outside of the house again. She saw the girl saying goodbye to her father. The girl's mother was just crying in silence as the man walked away…
'They were all lies… All his promises. I wonder what's the truth? Is there even one single thing he didn't lie about to us? Did he really love me? I love dad so much… But now I feel like I'm starting to hate him… For leaving us… For hurting me… But most of all for hurting mom, who's only fault was to love him with all her heart! Is it even fault? Loving someone? (Pause) No! It's not a fault! Mom didn't do anything wrong. Love isn't wrong. It's just that… maybe this was destined to happen…'
