The Dark Stars

" Grandma..." Cagalli smiled suddenly staring at her then suddenly bowed " I... can I come in...?"

[Reno]

Aeris glanced backward. from the corner of the kitchen she could see Sora scuttling out of sight. She smiled at Cagalli. "of course." she stepped aside.

[Jade]

She walked in suddenly looking around, everything seemed normal... her grandmother looked well... normal " Grandma... are you okay...? I heard you werent feeling well..." she murmured suddenly concern in her voice.

Raichu blinked suddenly looking out from the corner of the kitche... it was... oh this could be good or bad...

[Reno]

"I'm just fine Cagalli thought i will admit i hadn;t been at the time. Would you like some tea?" Aeris asked, shutting the door.

Sora glanced at his father as he stayed out of sight, shrugging helplessly.

[Jade]

Kairi blushed slightly " Oh um... yes maam! Grandma can you make the cinnamon tea that I like...?" she always enjoyed coming over here... her grandmother was the best cook... and her tea was amazing...! Her mother was never too good at well... anything when it came too house hold chores...

[Reno]

"of course." Aeris smiled, walking towards the kitchen. She couldn;t help but note that Cagalli and sora both loved the same tea - theyreally were related.

Sora smiled at his daughter's voice. he wanted to talk to her... to see her but...

[Jade]

Cagali followed after her into the kitchen then froze when she saw him coming too a complete stop " I..." she took a step back suddenly

Raichu sighed suddenly then gave a smile " Cagali!" he grinned getting up then ran at his grand-daughter " Oh look how big you are!" he grinned suddenly grabbing her arm dragging her into the kitchen " wow look at my baby girl, youve grown so much havent you!" he brang her into a hug suddenly trying too keep her mind off of Sora, and make her feel more welcomed.

" Grandpa! You say that every time I come over! I'm not a baby anymore!" she pouted suddenly but giggled trying too pull away " Im an adult remember!"

Raichu chuckled a grin on his face " wait your not...? Awe... but... but...!"

[Reno]

Aeris glanced at Sora, giving him a look before walking further into the kitchen to make the tea.

Sora smiled at the fond display, then blinked. "Hey wait dad she;s MY baby-girl. she;s you baby grand-girl!"

[Jade]

Cagalli pulled back suddenly breaking away getting some air too breathe " I... I didnt know he was here..." Cagalli murmured looking over at her father

Raichu frowned slightly " Cagalli... your dad loves you... you know that right...?"

[Reno]

"That;s right." Aeris said from the other end of the kitchen.

"Cagalli..." Sora murmured looking at his daughter.

[Jade]

Cagalli shivered remembering trying too restrain him " I... thank you grandma for inviting me in... but I have too go..." she turned suddenly then started back towards the door.

" Cagalli! Don't..." Raichu frowned watching her... what could he do...?

[Reno]

Aeris looked at Sora but the brunette needed no guidance.

"Cagalli!" Sora called, following after her. he hesitantly reached out for her, gently grabbing her arem. "don't go..."

[Jade]

Cagalli shivered " Daddy... I... mom's scared of you... so am I... we..."

[Reno]

"i know..." Sora whispered, slowly turning her to face him. "and i'm so sorry sweetheart... i didn;t mean to hurt you i was just..." he frowned. "well theres no excuse for it but... please forgive me..."

[Jade]

" Lacus said it wasnt your fault..." she whispered looking down, she was scared too look him in the eyes " she... she won't give up on you..."
