Hi there! It's been so long since I decided to write a story. So, I just finished watching and reading Ouran High and I also read some awesome fanfics. This story is actually for our Filipino Project. We'll be making short play based on 'Dahil sa Anak' and I need to make a story out of it. This is the fruit of my 5-hour brainstorming. Please read and review, I really need some advises especially on my grammars. It sucks. And I need a beta-reader too. I'm looking forward to hear from you. I DON'T OWN OURAN HIGH.

Chapter One

'It's so noisy in here' a twenty –three year old woman thought. She looked at her surroundings and saw many scenes. She saw a family. '

The father must be leaving' she deduced. The wife and their child hugged the man like he's their lifeline.

"Honey? Haruhi?" a man said. "Haruhi?" he said a little louder.

Haruhi blinked and looked at the man. "Is there a problem dad?" she asked. "Nothing. I just want to ask you if you want something." Her dad asked. "I'm fine dad" she answered. Her dad sighed. "Okay darling, if you say so. I'll just buy some food" her dad said. "Sure dad" she said then smiled.

Haruhi observed her surroundings. She spotted a blonde boy talking to a girl.

Haruhi didn't want to think of him anymore but it can't be helped, she still loves him.

'Tamaki'.

She remembered the time when he proposed.

FLASHBACK

"Tamaki, where are we going?" Haruhi asked her boyfriend.

"That doesn't matter Haruhi just come with me" Tamaki said smiling.

"I still have a lot of papers to do. It's only 5 o'clock in the afternoon" she tried to argue. This paperwork is really annoying.

With a blink of her eyes, she saw Tamaki on the corner of her office, sulking.

"Haruhi doesn't love me anymore? Did I do something wrong?" He asked quietly but loud enough for Haruhi to hear.

Haruhi sighed.

'Here we go again'.

"Alright, tell me where are going" she asked as she sat down on her swivel chair. "We're going on a date! We'll go to many places" he said with overflowing enthusiasm.

Date? Is there an occasion?" She asked. "Nope. I just want to spend my time with Haruhi. And I think that even lawyers deserve a break" he said still smiling.

Since she's tired from her work and wanted a break, she agreed, not knowing that this date will change her life.

After going to the amusement parks and ate dinner, they went to a park. They have a clear view of the night sky.

"Haruhi?" he asked. They're under the Sakura tree, Tamaki lying on Haruhi's lap.

"Hmmm?"

"I just want to let you know that I will not let them break us apart. I'll give up everything, even my name. I love you" he said with a sincere smile.

"I love you too, Tamaki" Haruhi said as she played with his hair.

"Then… will you marry me?" he asked quietly.

"Are you serious?" she asked trying to hide her surprise.

'I knew it… she'd—'

"Because if you are, I'll marry you Tamaki Suoh"

END OF FLASHBACK

'I never thought that'll regret saying to words. I believed you, Tamaki. You promised me you'll give up everything but I guess in the end, it's always blood is thicker than water'.

A tear escaped from her eye.

FLASHBACK

"Haruhi" Tamaki said as he knocked on her door. After a few seconds, the door was opened by a man with long red locks.

"O, the brat is here. What is your problem? It's 7 o'clock in the morning. My pretty daughter is still asleep" Ranka said.

"Good morning, Ranka-san. I'm sorry for disturbing you, I'll just come back later" He said.

'Something is wrong with this brat'

"Are you alright? Tamaki- kun?" Ranka asked.

'Hm. He called me Tamaki- kun for the first time' he thought.

"Ah. I'm alright, Ranka-san. I'm just stressed. You know my work and…all. I just want to see Haruhi. And, I'll just come back later" Tamaki explained trying to sound happy.

"Tamaki? What are you doing here?" A feminine voice inquired.

"Good morning Haruhi!" he said with enthusiasm. "Is something wrong Tamaki?" she asked.

"Nope! Everything's alright. I just want to talk to you" he said with a big smile on his face. "I just want to talk to you" he said with a smile.

"All right. Wait for me there, I'll just change" she said as she went back inside.

"Don't think about hurting my daughter, lover boy" Ranka threatened.

Tamaki tried to say something but failed.

"I knew it. We'll talk later. No one hurts my daughter" He said with a very serious voice.

After the uncomfortable silence, Haruhi went out. Tamaki smiled as he made his way to escort her.

"We'll be going dad" Haruhi said as he waved to her father.

At the park…

There they are, under the Sakura tree. Tamaki is lying on Haruh's lap.

"Is there a problem Tamaki? You seem much stressed. Is it about your work? Your mother? Or…" Haruhi tried to guess as she played with his hair.

"Stressed is an understatement Haruhi, not just from work." He said then sighed.

"Then what is it? You seemed very troubled." She asked softly.

"Ha…Haruhi?" he started then he got up and sat beside her.

"I-It's about us"

"You're breaking the engagement" she said in a serious tone.

It was not a question. It was a statement.

She knew this would happen sooner or later.

"Haruhi. Let me explain. Five minutes. Give me five minutes to explain." Tamaki pleaded.

"So it's true. What your grandmother said. I knew this would come sooner or later. I thought…" Haruhi said in a soft voice.

"I-I told them that I'll never let them rule my life again. I tried to fight. I told them that I'd rather lose the company and be disowned than not be with you."

He said looking at the distance.

"I don't want to be apart from you. I'd rather lose the company, the inheritance or my name than lose you. I tried to argue but they threatened me. They said that you'll lose your job as a lawyer and make you suffer. I can't let them do that to you Haruhi" Tamaki explained. He sniffed, trying to stop the tears from flowing.

"You should obey them Tamaki" she said. Tamaki looked at her with wide eyes.

"A-are you giving up?" he asked, not wanting to believe her.

"Yes. I can't let them disown you because of me. You worked hard for that. Don't let it go to waste just because of me. They're more important Tamaki, they're your family. You should obey your grandmother. Marry Éclair. If we're meant to be, we'll surely meet again. Goodbye Tamaki, I'll never forget you"

She got up and gave him back his diamond ring. She walked away.

He was rooted there, speechless. Haruhi gave him back the ring. She's leaving.

He can't do anything but watch the woman he loves walk out of his life.

End of Flashback

"Darling" Ranka shook her daughter's shoulder.

"Dad" she responded. "Why are you crying Haruhi?" her dad said as he wiped her tears.

"Forget him Haruhi. He doesn't deserves you" he continued and hugged his daughter.

CALLING FLIGHT 418 MLS TO AMERICA. PLEASE START BOARDING THE PLANE (I'm not sure if that's the correct stuff)

"Dad?" Haruhi said.

"I'll be okay here. Call me okay? Don't forget your father. I'm sorry I'll not be with you. Now, go Haruhi. Start a life without him. Always remember that Dad is here, I love you" her dad hugged her and started crying.

"I love you too dad" she replied and also cried.

"I'll be going now, take care of yourself and the little one okay? Goodbye Haruhi"

She walked away from her dad and headed to the boarding section.

'We'll start a new life in America' she said she caressed her stomach.

'Goodbye, Japan'

There! Chap One DONE!
