Chapter 28: Lost Memories

*From this point on it will be Akemi's lost memories before her parents 'died' I won't italicize it so that you guys won't be confused with the italicized thoughts^^

3rd person POV

"Congratulations Mr and Mrs Tanaka! It's a girl!" The nurse said as she gave the newborn baby to the hands of her mother

"What would you like to name it?" The nurse asked the couple

"Hmm," The man hums "What about Akemi?" He suggested

"Any name is fine," The tired woman said without showing any care in the world and slept

The nurse was the one to guide the baby's mouth to its mother's breast so that it will be fed

"Ah...I apologize about her behaviour" The man said looking at the woman on the bed tiredly

'She could've just said so if she didn't want a child' The man sighed. He was left alone with his sleeping wife and daughter

"Akemi" He shifted his eyes to his newborn baby, staring at her lovingly

"I'll make you the happiest daughter on earth"

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷

"Dada!" The 1-year-old said

The man carrying Akemi gasped, tears forming in his eyes

"Emiko!!" He yelled

"What?" The woman said walking inside the baby's room

"Akemi called me dada!" He said excitedly

"Really? Congrats then" Is all the woman said and walked out of the room

'Jeez can't she be more excited?' The man thought and sighed

"Dada?"

"Oh! It's nothing, my cute little angel!" He tickled the baby

- 4 years later -

"Akemi!"

"Dad! Welcome home!"

The man picked up the petite child into his arms. The girl is now 4 years old, she showed the man a drawing of what seems to be them as a family

"Look at what I did!" She said pointing at her drawing

"This is me, you and mom!"

"This looks so good, Akemi! I'm proud of you!" He said, taking his shoes off and sitting in the living room with Akemi still in his arms

"What did mom say about this?" He asked

Akemi frowned and looked down, pouting

"Mom hates me so I haven't shown her yet," She said with her head low

The man carrying her frowned as well. Who in the world would hate their own child? Especially his wife

"What do you mean?" He asked cupping her puffed cheeks "Your mother doesn't hate you"

"But she always looks at me coldly and she avoids me as well!" She complained

"Maybe she's busy?" He asked, "Come on if you show that drawing she'll be happy!"

Akemi thought for a while and decided that she will show her mother her drawing of them the next morning considering she is already sleeping and it was almost Akemi's bedtime

-The next morning-

"M-Mom?" Akemi peeked through her mother's office in the house

The older woman sighed and put down her paperwork
