Leo was truly shocked upon hearing his daughter's words. Then he shook his head, \"No, it is still not the same. Even up to now, their shouts and plea are still coming at me in my nightmares.\"
\"SNAP OUT OF IT!!\" Azusa finally lost it as she shouted.
\"Did you know? Did you have any idea what I myself have done during those times that you are not here?\"
Leo could only look at her in shock, she had been so quiet and trying her best to be calm in front of her father. But seeing her mother cry, she just lost all those.
\"Your sin of killing the innocent have been repayed for all those innocent people have lived. I don't know if you were not listening to me when I was talking about it or if you ever spared the king and the head knight some of your attention when they were talking about it.\"
She walked closer to him and stood right in front of him. And since Leo was still sitting in the bed, Azusa who was standing was a little taller than him. He could only look up to her.
\"Everything was reset. Those who died innocently were revived. Everything that had happened to the other worlds was returned to the time before Juzo arrived. So you really have no sin towards them at all. And those bad people whom you killed or used? Well that serves them right.\"
Unbeknownst to them, Raven, Hideyoshi and Mamoru was already outside the room listening. When the other two learned about Layla's condition they knew that Azusa would surely do something. And so they decisively pulled Raven and went to the hospital.
Leo have nothing to say regarding what Azusa have just said. He could only look up at her.
\"So your sin? It's nothing compared to mine.\"
He furrowed his brows, he didn't expect for his daughter to be suddenly talking about her own sin.
\"You have treasured each relationship you have. Familiar ties, friendship and those who was under you. But I didn't father, back then I almost took my friends lives. Not just once but twice.\"
Leo's eyes grew wide, she had been treasuring her friends all those times. But why is she suddenly saying that she almost took their lives?
\"That's right. The first time, I have stabbed them and left them in a desserted road. If not for Feena's ability to communicate through water then surely both she and Karen would have died.\"
Leo was even more shocked to find out that it was Feena and Karen whom she was talking about.
\"The second time, *laughs bitterly* I guess you really are my idol. I even wanted to copy your move back when you disappeared to take them with me. I was ready to die with them back then. I had that thought but was stopped in the end.\"
\"Now tell me father? With these sin, should I go and kill myself?\"
Leo has no word. His mind was completely blank. Hearing this was like a bomb to him. He never expected that his daughter was actually capable of this. That sweet child of his.
\"Couldn't accept it? Yes father, that was what happened to me. That was how I almost destroyed my own life. But you see someone pulled me out of it. She gave me a really hard slap to wake me up from that stupidity.\"
Leo could only look at his daughter, he has no idea what to tell her or what to ask her. What he could remember was how sweet and kind his daughter was. That is why he was mad upon knowing that she had been bullied leading to her taking her own life in the end.
But he never tried to know what had happened while she was being bullied. What other things she had done, for he assumed that she must have only endured it until she could no longer take it.
\"Seeing your look, you can't believe it right father? Yes I was pushed to my limit but it was still the most unforgivable thing for someone to take their precious friend's lives away just because they were bullied. Especially since those two still tried to befriend me no matter what.\"
She then looked him intently in the eye, there were no ripples, nothing but clearness could be seen from them.
\"Yet look at me now father, do I look like someone like you? Someone who's beating himself to the death just because of my past sins? Did anyone of us look at you in a way where we are blaming you? Have we father?\"
Leo lowered his head as he slowly shook it. He still has no words but he was still riddled with guilt. Guilt towards his daughter and towards the woman he loved.
No matter how much he hated fate or destiny he shouldn't have sullied himself by doing that act to another woman.
\"No you don't. You still look like you still didn't want to forgive yourself. You know what father? This is just your stupid stubbornness, your too righteous that it is no longer on the normal level.\"
She then called for him, Leo slowly looked up at her. Her eyes brimming with brightness and it was very much clear. Somehow he felt like he was looking at his own eyes way back before he time travelled.
\"Forgive yourself, that is the only way you'll be able to see just how much we all care for you and how we are still waiting for you to return to us. Give yourself a break, you've done more than enough for the kingdom that even the people have forgiven you.\"
She then turned her back ready to walk out of the room, but just as she reached the door she spoke up once again without looking back.
\"I've heard that you're about to be discharged, once you do. Do look around and see all the changes that have happened here and look at all the people who still kept going despite what we all faced.\"
Without waiting for his reply she walked out of the room, this time she gently closed the door behind her.
She was then shocked to be suddenly hugged, upon looking up she was greeted by Mamoru's gentle smile. Looking behind him, Hideyoshi had his thumbs up towards her and Raven nodded at her.
The four of them walked out of the hospital. She looked up at the sky and took a deep breath, she somehow felt refreshed.
Whatever she had said to her father was somehow directed towards her as well. For no matter what, the guilt from before when she had harmed Feena and Karen still remained deep within her heart.
\"I'm shock, I thought you would be crying as you reprimand your father,\" Hideyoshi opened a topic as they kept walking towards the city.
They chose to walk this time since it was also Azusa's off. While Raven have his duties in the afternoon. It was a very rare thing for them to have such a short time to be together once again, though they were not complete.
\"Back when Eureka would reprimand someone, she never showed any sign of sadness. It was more like she was always angry. Somehow while I was speaking a while ago, I suddenly had the idea of the reason why she do so.\"
She reached her hand up in the sky as a smile appeared on her face, \"Sometimes, when you cry as you try to help someone. It's more like your giving them more pain and guilt. But if you get mad at them, somehow they'll be able to tell what was on their minds.\"
She walked ahead and looked back at the three of them as she walk backwards, \"When you are being berated, you'll have the instinct of trying to defend where you stand. Upon hearing their side then you can point out what mistakes they are adding to what they already have. Then by giving my father some time for himself, he'll have time to reflect of his past, his present and what he plans for the future.\"
She grinned at them, \"That's why I didn't cry a while ago. And somehow I felt refreshed, really refreshed.\"
Mamoru smiled as he walked closer and placed his hand on her head, \"You've really grown.\"
\"Hey, it's like you're saying that I was childish before,\" Azusa replied as she pouted.
The four of them continued walking taking in the scenery before them. They knew that today Leo would be able to come up with a different answer.
Raven then looked back, 'If he would indeed be able to jump through this hurdle. Then the next would be...'
His face was filled with seriousness as he ponder over this. The matter regarding Eureka would be a bigger blow on Leo. But surely all of them would not let Eureka's efforts go to waste.
For the whole day, no one visited Leo again, otehr than the nurses and Akito who was checking on him. This gave him more time to ponder over everything. What his daughter pointed out and what he plans to do next.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
