Chereads / The Fallen Angel 2 / Chapter 10 - Chapter 9

Chapter 10 - Chapter 9

It's been 2 days since the incident in U.A. happened, Hawks was curious about what happened with Amami. He felt something different from Amami; the aura he felt was menacing.

He also noticed that Amami was acting a bit different other than being awkward, he noticed how there is a time she would look in a distance and lose her focus; which makes him worried about her.

It was afternoon, Amami went out of her room and was dressed up. She closes the door and heading her way out of the door when Hawks saw her dressed up.

"Where are you going?" Hawks asked.

"Oh, I'm going to talk to an old friend of mine" Amami answered.

"Can I come with you?" Hawks asked.

"Sure" she replies, Hawks didn't expect her to accept since he thought she would lie about going somewhere.

Amami and Hawks arrived in a small bar, Hawks was confused to why they are standing in front of a small bar.

"A-Amami-chan, do you know what this place is? Do you even drink alcohol?" Hawks asked.

"My uncle...he said an old friend of mine used to visit me all the time in my previous hospital," Amami said. "I just want to talk to him" Amami smiles.

"Anyway, let's go inside"

Both of them went inside and there are only a few people inside, Amami's eyes wandered the place, trying to find for a certain person. They both walk their way to the bartender that was the only employee that can be seen.

"Welcome, I haven't seen your face before" the female bartender greeted.

"Hello, is Yamikawa Kouzai here?" Amami asked.

"Owner? What relationship do you have with the owner?" the female bartender asked.

"Ah, I'm Tenkubashi Amami. I'm an old friend of his" Amami introduces herself, the female bartender stops what she was doing and excuse herself as she went to the back, calling someone.

Then a tall man with black hair walks out of the back, one of his eyes were covered with a black eyepatch.

"Amami..." he mutters her name.

"Hello, Kouzai-san. It's been a while" Amami greeted.

"Y-Yeah...what are you doing here?" Kouzai asked.

"I came here to talk to you, are you free right now?"

"Yes, let's talk at the back"

"Hawks-san, is it okay if you stay here?" Amami asked.

"Yeah, I'll just hang out here" Hawks replies, he sits at a bar stool and orders a drink.

˚˚˚

They both seated, Kouzai made tea for Amami and started talking about they do and other stuff until Amami finally brought up the question she's been wanting to ask.

"Kouzai-san, I was told that you used to visit me when I was in a coma after that incident. Do you have any chance to know what happened to why my memories are jumbled up?"

Kouzai didn't respond for a moment and gulps on his saliva.

"A-Amami...I can explain, they told me to do it"

"What? They? Who are they?" Amami asked.

"That woman from the HPSC from your hometown, she told me to erase your memories and replace some of it into fake ones. Some doctors that work on that previous hospital you're in was hired by her and ask them to help her experiment on your quirk, it seems she found something interesting about your quirk"

"Kouzai-san...tell me everything" suddenly, Amami's aura changed. Kouzai looked at her in fear, feeling the familiar menacing aura from her.

"Amami, do your parents somehow told you about your family? Like how your family history started?" Kouzai asked.

"No, I've only read books about it that have been sitting on my dad's office"

"Well, the first generation was actually not a pure angel quirk, your blood is mixed with demon quirk"

"What? Like yours...?" Amami was confused.

"You see, two fell in love and both families didn't like them being together. The two elope and had children together, but their life didn't go pretty well. The two of them had two children which are twins, both twins had both quirks from their parents. Two kids were able to control both quirks together, but one day their demon quirk started to take over and lose control of their quirk which led them both to kill their parents. Both families say that the punishment of the two lovers who didn't follow the rules of their family tradition was by getting killed by their children who got taken over by evil. As generations passed, they are trying to get rid of the mixed blood of angel and demon quirk, they thought that two quirks have been fighting each other for the person to only control one of them. But no matter what they do, they can't get rid of it. Some of them use their quirk for evil which is why their wings are black because they are doing evil deeds"

Amami was lost of words, never in her life would get to know the real origin of her family bloodline.

"Kouzai-san, can you do me a favour? Can you bring back my memories?" Amami asked.

"Eh? Why?" Kouzai asked, feeling sweat on his temple.

"I want to remember everything, my memories with my parents, all the things from my past" Amami asked.

"I...I can't do that" Kouzai respond, looking to the side; avoiding eye contact.

"Why?!" Amami exclaimed, slamming a fist on the tea table.

"I can't do that. If you remember everything you might lose control like last time"

Amami sighs and sits back down, trying to calm herself, she then looks at Kouzai

"Kouzai-san...you're hiding something from me, weren't you?" Amami questioned. Kouzai didn't respond to her, Amami sighs again, knowing it's something that he can't tell her.

Amami stands up, walking her way to the door and opening it then slams it after she gets out. She was furious that the friend she's close friends with since the day they worked for the commission has now kept secrets from her.

Since the day she woke up from her coma, it's hard to believe anyone around her because people would take advantage of her. Now that Hawks is looking after her, she's scared that one day he would leave her side.

She got out of the back and made eye contact with Hawks, who is just sitting quietly at the bar stool chair.

"We're leaving," Amami said, he gets down of the chair and follows behind Amami.

Both of them got inside her car, Hawks examines Amami's face and started to talk to her.

"I heard you and it seems you're angry, did something happened?" Hawks asked.

"He's keeping a secret from me, there's a secret that he can't tell me" Amami respond.

"Secret? How about your memories?" Hawks asked again.

"He told me that he can't restore my memories, I guess he doesn't want me to remember something" Amami explained.

Hawks quietly glance at Amami and looked at her with a worried look, he had a bad feeling about Amami getting her memories back.

˚˚˚

After dinner, Amami locked herself in her room. She feels frustrated that she can't have her memories back and Kouzai was hiding a secret from her, she wanted to remember everything but whenever she tried to remember she would get headaches as if something is stopping her from remembering something.

Hawks have never said a single word since they arrive at his apartment, he's been worrying about Amami since she started to act weird. As he was walking to his room, he suddenly stops in front of Amami's room. His hand was reaching out for the doorknob but soon stopped midway before he touches the knob.

He backs away a little bit and let out a sigh as he stares at the door, thinking whether he should go in or not. Suddenly, the door opened and startled Amami.

"Oh my god, Hawks-san, please don't scare me like that" Amami said, putting a hand on her chest.

"Sorry" Hawks apologized.

"Anyway, why are you standing here? Do you need anything?" Amami asked.

"No, I was wondering..." Hawks paused, looking to the side. Amami stayed quiet and wat for what Hawks is about to say. "If you want to go somewhere tomorrow, you know, like a date"

"A date?"

"Wait did I just say that?"

"Y-Yeah..." Amami respond, confused to why Hawks suddenly acting awkward.

"Well, I guess it's a date then. How about twelve in the afternoon? How's that sound?" Hawks asked, playing it cool.

"Sure, I'm cool with that"

"Okay, I'll be heading my room now. Goodnight"

"Goodnight to you too..." Amami replies, Hawks started walking backwards on his way to his room, not taking his attention off Amami. As soon as he reaches the door of his room, his hands were patting on the door to find the doorknob and open it.

Before he comes inside his room, he smiled at Amami and Amami awkwardly smiles in response then he shut himself in his room. Amami was standing in her door in confusion and trying to process what just happened.
