"A light in the room it was you who was standing there." Akira sang as she drew in the sand while sitting in the backyard in a spot she discovered. "Tried yet still true as your glance lead my stare. But your heart drifted off like the land split by sea." Akira sang thinking to herself as this was a song her mother sang to her whenever she needed to calm down.
"I tried to go to follow to kneel down at your feet. I'll run. I'll run. I'll run run to you." she sang as she heard footsteps. "I will break down the gates of heaven. rest my shackles to set you free." the deep voice joined her in song. she turned around to see who it was. "I'm not going back down there if she's just going to insult me again." Akira said coming down from the sill.
"She asked me to come get you actually." Darian said as Akira's face expression became one of surprise. "She better apologize otherwise I am going to throw a shoe at her." Akira said earning a chuckle from Darian. "you're cute." he patted the top of her head as they both headed down to the living room.
" Here she is mom." Akira stepped in the expecting the worse. "listen child I called you back to apologize." Akira released a breath she didn't realize she was holding. " What I said to you was truly uncalled for and I just don't like the girls my baby boy usually chooses to bring home to us." his mother explained. "why do I feel like there's a but?" Akira said expecting something else to be said. "you're different. I don't know if it's a good or bad different but we'll see a long the way." she says giving her a hug which seemed to not only surprise Akira but also the family.
