A SECOND CHANCE TO LOVE…
Part One:
Lazy drizzle passes by the peaceful streets of Nerima. The quiet
surroundings seemed to be contradicting the memories of a certain
martial artist dragging his footsteps towards the Tendo Dojo. In his
hand clutched a worn out bag, obviously a man that had been wondering
about for quite a few years.
Slowly, the young man approached the Tendo-ke with great hesitation.
A distant smile lit up his handsome face as he knocked on the door
politely. A voice sweetly rang out, " Just a moment!" A pretty woman
of twenty-eight years old gently opened the door and gasped when she
realized the identity of the visitor. "Oh my, Ranma-kun," exclaimed
Kasumi Tendo.
"Hi there, Kasumi," Ranma nervously waved before catching the
unconscious lady.
*****
"Ranma-kun, please have some tea." Kasumi beamed her #famous# smile
before settling down at the low Japanese table. "How long has it been
since we've last seen you?" Kasumi gently asked as she kept an eye on
her two daughters Yumi and Natsumi.
"It has been seven years since I left," Ranma replied while seemingly
looking around for something or someone. "How's everybody so far?"
"Oh, right now I'm happily married to Tofu-chan and devoting my time
to the house and my children. Otousan had passed away two years later
after you left and your father had gone back to the Saotome's residence.
Nabiki is doing fine in her export and trading business and lives apart
from us in her own apartment,"
Ranma nodded, he always knew Nabiki will have a terrific career or
whatever the future has in store for her. Ranma asked timidly, "And Akane?
How is she doing?" Kasumi's cheerful expression fell for a second but
quickly recovered.
"Akane is the most worrisome of all," Kasumi carefully answered. "She
has fallen in depression for quite some time when Otousan died and since
then she has never completely recovered. She had given up on martial arts
and takes care of the dojo. She hires other sensei to teach the students
here and concentrates on the management and promotions of the dojo. She
had not dated a single young man since your departure." Ranma sighed in
relief when he heard the last comment.
Kasumi chuckled, "I supposed that you are only concerned about
Akane-chan huh?" Ranma attempt to stutter out a denial but Kasumi
interrupted him, "Even though Akane no longer lives here, she will be
coming home tonight for the family reunion visit once a year together
with Nabiki. I hope you two will get along this time, as Akane-chan
will be staying here for a month. Tofu-chan will be back soon and I'm
sure he'll lend you something nice to wear for your first meeting with
Akane-chan." With a mischievous wink, Kasumi pushed Ranma into the
guestroom; "Meanwhile you'll be staying here. Right?"
Ranma laughed, embarrassed and entered the guestroom to freshen up.
Kasumi left, a hopeful smile lit up her face as she whispered, "I hope
you will reconcile with Akane-chan. This couple is just too stubborn
for their own good." A sly smile cross her pretty face as she whispered
under breath, "Maybe I can do something about their relationship.
*****
Ranma stretched out on the futon and sighed as he started to recall the
treasured memories of Akane and himself living in Tendo-ke and studying at
Furinkan High. "So much have changed around here. I just hope everything
is not too late yet."
Ranma opened his bag pack and retrieved out a photograph. On the faded
paper, a cute girl with short, dark blue hair turned to the camera while
sipping from a straw was seemingly looking back at Ranma through her warm,
chocolate brown eyes. Tears began to fall as the martial artist traced
the outline of Akane's form with his forefinger, remembering the incident
that caused the engagement between them to end...
