but it's everything in between that makes it all worthwhile.
The woman sat in front of her laptop, her eyes narrowing at the monitor. She then flexed her wrists from side to side and made the joints on her fingers pop.
A grin appeared on her face as she begun typing…
Epilogue: Six Years Later
A little girl, five years of age, came running towards his father, Natsume Hyuuga, who was leaning on his car and waiting for his family.
Oh, yes. He was going to fetch his wife and her daughter from school (Mikan was still working as a teacher and their daughter just started kindergarten on the same school where she worked a few months ago) and they were going to have a dinner together tonight. Well, at least, that was what Natsume had in his mind.
He was startled, to say the least, when he saw his lovely daughter, crying. Large droplets of tears seemed to endlessly fall from her crimson eyes.
Akari, the little girl, then hugged his father's leg tightly and continued crying.
The raven-head sighed and touched the little girl's head softly, before kneeling down and wiping his daughter's wet cheeks.
"What's wrong, Akari?" he then asked.
The little girl just stared at him, tears, still falling from her eyes.
"Come on. Tell me what's wrong."
"Ha―Haru-kun pulled my pigtail today. And he tripped me," she answered, her disarrayed brown locks clutched on her tiny hand. "Look, daddy! My knee is bee― leed― ugh. There is buhlood in my knee!"
"Bleeding, Akari. Your knee is bleeding. And it's blood. Have you gone to the clinic yet?"
The child quietly shook her head and sniffed.
Natsume quickly got up and motioned to search for this Haru-kun. "That kid. Tell me who he is and I'm gonna―"
"You're gonna what, honey?" Mikan said, cutting off her husband's words.
"Nothing," the raven-head quickly answered. "Oh. Akari is hurt. Some Haru kid pushed her."
Mikan placed a gentle kiss on his cheek before turning her attention to their daughter. "You're hurt, sweetheart?"
Akari nodded and suddenly burst into tears again.
Daddy Natsume knotted his forehead at his wife. "You're not even angry?"
"Why would I be angry?"
The raven-haired man theatrically gasped. "Some kid pushed our daughter and now she's hurt, Mikan."
The brunette sighed. "Natsume honey, it comes with playing, okay? Haru-kun must have been carried away while they were playing a while ago."
"Akari still got hurt. And who's this Haru anyway?"
"He's a boy in my class and almost a year older than Akari. He's also Luna-san's son."
"Koizumi's son?!" he exclaimed.
"She's Luna Mouri now, honey."
Natsume shrugged. "Hn."
"And you know what?"
"What?"
Mikan smiled mischievously. "It seems like little Haru-kun has taking a liking on our Akari-chan~"
Natsume blinked. Once. Twice. Thrice. His wife's words then suddenly sunk into his mind. "I won't allow it!" he suddenly shouted at the top of his voice.
Giggling, the brunette tapped her husband's shoulder as comfort. "Fine, fine. Now, let's take our daughter to Subaru-nii-san's place to get her checked."
The raven-head harshly sighed. "Fine," he then said, before turning towards his car. He then took a glance of his family who were now inside the car with him (Mikan sat on the passenger seat next to him, while little Akari was seating at the back, quietly blowing on the wound on her knee.)
"I still won't allow it," he whispered to no one as he put the car engine into life.
"You don't have to worry, Natsume. It's just a scrape. It will heal few days from now. Just remember to apply the ointment, the one I gave Mikan, daily to prevent scarring."
Natsume Hyuuga breathed a sigh of relief as he heard what his older cousin had told him. Apparently, the wound on his daughter's knee was nothing dangerous and deadly.
Thank Kami.
Call him over-protective or exaggerated or what-not, but when it came to his daughter, he'd do anything―
"Subaru-nii!" a frantic Ruka entered the older Imai's office. His blonde hair was messy, a few buttons on his dress shirt were missing and his necktie was out of place.
It was out of Ruka's character to go on a public place looking like, errr… that. Like someone had originally planned to murder him, but ultimately failed.
"What?" Subaru then calmly answered.
"Hotaru's in labor!"
The two-raven-heads gave the blonde a stern look. "Figures," they both said a few second later.
"Mommy," little Akari said, while staring at the colorful band-aid plastered on her injured knee.
Mikan hummed as she combed her daughter's locks. Akari was seated on her lap, while they were inside Hotaru's private room (Hotaru was still in labor, the room was prepared for her to use after she had given birth). (Also, Natsume and Subaru was with Ruka. You know, for moral support. Err, yeah.)
"Uncle Ruka said that Aunt Hotaru will have a baby soon, right?"
"Yes, honey."
"I'm just curious. Did Aunt Hotaru eat the baby?"
Mikan almost laughed at her daughter's question. "No, baby," she answered, a wide smile forming on her lips, as she tied her daughter's hair into pigtails once again.
"Then why is her tummy so big?"
"That's because the baby is living inside Aunt Hotaru's tummy. And now, the baby is going to come out to live with Aunt Hotaru and Uncle Ruka."
Akari frowned. "But how could that be? How could the baby breathe inside Aunt Hotaru's stomach?"
Mikan gently pinched her daughter's little nose. "That's just how it is, sweetheart."
The door then suddenly opened and a very happy-looking Ruka, with tears of joy streaming down his face, entered.
"It's a boy! It's a boy!" he shouted with glee before fainting.
Ruka Nogi was having the time of his life. He had a son now, and there was absolutely nothing else that he could ask for. He gently looked down on the little bundle in his arms.
Kei Nogi was sleeping soundly in his father's arms. He looked so tiny and fragile and so pretty, all at the same time.
Ruka then heard his wife snicker at the background a few moments later.
"What is it, Hotaru?" he asked.
The raven-head sighed before looking at him.
"Permy sent me a text message. She said she won't be coming to work for a while because she's upset. Something about her and Yome breaking up. Again."
Ruka grinned. "How many time have they broken up in the last six years?"
Hotaru rolled her eyes. She didn't look like she had undergone almost eight hours of labor and had given birth just a day ago. "Don't get me started on that, Ruka."
She was then cut off by her cellphone's message alert tone. She raised an eyebrow at her handheld device before turning to her husband.
"Ruka."
"What, dear?" he answered, as he continued to look lovingly at their son, who was yawning so adorably that time.
"Get me a new secretary by tomorrow."
Now, that got Ruka Nogi's full attention. He frowned before looking at his wife. "Why?"
"Permy resigned. Yome proposed to her. She said yes."
"They're getting married?"
Hotaru nodded.
The blonde man grinned. "Finally," he then said.
"I know, right."
Subaru and nurse Ingrid got married three years ago. But their marriage didn't last long and they decided to file a divorce a few months ago. They didn't have a child during their married years because of their jobs (cough Subaru's job cough) and they decided to go their separate ways after deciding they've had enough.
Well, nothing really lasts forever, right?
Yuu and Nonoko's relationship was currently on the rocks, but the two were trying their hardest to hold onto each other.
Youichi was still Youichi.
And Mochiage was still Mochiage. Except that he owned a number of companies on this story. And he wasn't really mentioned that much. Lol.
Misaki Harada, Hotaru Nogi's new secretary, punched Tsubasa on the face when they first met. (The latter was supposed to be Hotaru's substitute as Hyuuga Corp.'s Finance Department Head, as Hotaru was still recuperating from childbirth a few days ago.)
I smeel something… interesting going on here.
Hmmm.
THE END YAAAAAY.
A/N: YAAAAAAAY IT'S FINALLY COMPLETE YAAAAY LET'S PARTEEEEEEEY
After three years, this story is finally complete! I can't believe it! *sobs endlessly* Thanks to all those people who added this story on their alert and favourite list, people who left reviews and to those people who added me to their alert and favourite list. Once again, thank you! :D
I've met a lot of people through FCMTSCL and made good friends because of it. I'm happy I wrote and published this story here on FFN :)
As for Luna's happy ending… Even villains and bad guys (and girls) deserve their own happy endings. I mean, if I were to be a villain, I know I'll want someone to accept and love me for what I am… for who I am. And that I'll never stop believing that there's someone reserved for a person like me. Maybe he's just stuck on a traffic jam somewhere in this world. Lol.
So yeah. Thank you once again~!
Review for the last time? :)
It's not an end, but an and. –Park Leeteuk
