Nara Surveyed the scene with her dark black eyes.She was standing in the doorway to the living room witnising another fight.Kayko,her mother,had tears in her eyes.She was standing infront of her father,Yuske,who had anger in his eyes.
Mama please stop cryin'
I cant stand the sound
Your pain is painful
It's tearin' me down.
That night aorund 10 Shiroshi (Naras 6 year old sister.I didnt mention her before) sat up straight in bed.She pushed her long brown hair out of her eyes out of her dark choclate colored eyes and stared into the darkness of her room as she heard the sound of glass being broken.She walked out of bed and to the living room doorway and just watched as the fight unfolded.
I hear glass breakin'
As i sit up in my bed
Also at the sound of the noise Hiroshi jumped out of bed and tied his red bandana around his forhead.
He walked to the entry of the living room and stood beside his sister.He put a hand on her shoulder and gave it a squeeze.
"You never hear a singel word i say!"Yelled Kayko"You never listen!"
I told Dad you didnt mean those nasty thing you said.
"We dont have enough money to barley suport the children!"yelled Kayko"It's all your fault!"
Nara looked up at her father awaiting his reaction.
You fight about money
Shiroshi saw her sisters look and awaited her mothers reaction too.
"Were low on money because you are always buying then stuff"Yuske yelled "You spoil them!"
"I do not!You spiol them too!"
"But at least i dont waist money doing it!"
'Bout me and my brothers
Nara head Shiroshi crying and bent down to comfert her.
And this is what i come home to
"I cant stand all the screaming Nara"Shiroshi cryed "I cant get to sleep at night"
This is my shelter
Nara stood back up as Shiroshi hid behind her leg from some big monster called divorce that was not only visible to her but to the rest of us as well.The yelling had died down a bit.Yuske tried to blame the fighting on his childhood again
It anit easy
groing up in World War 3
Never knowin what love could be
You'll see
Nara though about her friends and the closness she had with them
I don't want love to destroy me
Like it had done my family
Shiroshi desprilty wanted her family to stay in one peice
Can we work it out?
Can we be a family?
I'll promise i'll be better
Mommy I'll do anything
Hiroshi was willing to give up his life for his family.
Can we work it out?Can we be a family?
I'll promise ill be better
Daddy please don't leave
"Kids go back to bed"Yuske screamed watching the kids watching
Nara winced at the scream.The words and the tone of voice cut through her soul like a white hot blade scaring it like all the other screams ither directed at them or the others partner.
No one move a musel they stood there ground.
Daddy please stop yellin'
Nara stiffled back tears.
I can't stand the sound
Kayko had tears in her eyes again.Nara squeezed Shiroshis hand.
Make mama stop crying
Naras father ment everything to her.She couldnt risk losing him
'Cuz i need you around
Hiroshi knew that yuske would always love Kayko.
My mama she loves you
Nara relized all the things Yuske said made kyako doubt this.
No matter what she says its true
Nara knew that Yuske had hurt Kayko
I know that she hurt you
But remember I love you too
Nara and Shiroshi had ran way yesterday when her their parents had been fighting again.They had ran away down to the creek near the house.They had stayed there and cryed there eyes out and comforted eachother.It was nice to be their and get those feelings out but they both knew that they had to go home.
Family friend Chuu had found them there and brought them back home.He was like an uncle to them.A big goofy uncle.They would stay with him when it got really bad.
I ran away today
I ran away from the noise,ran away
Dont wanna go back to that place
But dont have no chose no way
Now Yuske was yelling at Kyako again.
It aint easy growin up in World War III
Never knowing what love could,well I've seen
Nara knew that this would destroy there family.
I dont want love to destroy me
Like it did my family
It would eat them and there once happy life like a big monster waiting for the breaking point.
Can we work it out?
Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
They could never work this out.Could they?
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise ill be better,Daddy please dont leave
"DAD STOP IT!"Nara yelled.
Her dad shut up.
"Your fighting.......its destroying us.Right now its like where growing up in World War III.You know that?I guess you wouldnt because your to busy fighting with mom to notice us even a littel."she said."You get so rapped up in your fighting to even know we exist.Then you try and blame it on your childhood.You said a while back that you were goimg to raise us better.WELL THE LIVES WERE LIVING IN HAVENT BEEN EXACTLY PARADICE!More like hell."with that Nara and the other kids grabed there coats and glaves and walked out of the house.Before walking out the door they looked at there family portrait.They seemed so happy
In our family portrait
we looked pretty happy
Lets play pretend
and act like it comes naturally
The kids knew that they would have to split the holidays,two adresses,a posible step-brother,and their mom would have to change her last name.
I dont wanna have to spilt the holidays
I dont wanna have two adresses
I dont wanna step-brother,anyways
And i don't want my mom to have to change her last name
Everyone of the kids wishes that they could live in that "Family Portrait" world.It's a world where they where happy again.No problems,no worrys.It was perfect.
In our family portrait,we look pretty happy
we look pretty normal lets go back to that
In our family Portrait ,we look pretty happy
Lets play pretend and act like it goes naturally
They walked downthe street.Hiroshi was wlaking next to Nara and Nara was holding Shiroshis hand.
"Chuu's?"Nara asked
"Anywhere but back there"said Hiroshi with a sigh.
"What do you think Shiroshi.Should we go to Uncle Chuu's?Jin might be there and Rinku.He could so you some more of his Yo-Yo tricks"Nara said.She wasnt bribing.
In our family portrait,we look preety happy
(Can we work it out?Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal,Lets go back to that
(I promise ill be better.Mommy I'll do anything)
"Yeah!"said Shiroshi exitedly showing the yo-yos that she had pulled from her pocket.
"Ok then.Lets go"Nara said as they cotinued walking.
The Urameshi kids,Jaganshi kids and the Kuwabara kids where like one big family unit.They supported eachother.If they had to Nara and Hiroshi were more thatn prepared to take care of Shiroshi.
In our family portrait,we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out?Can we be a family?)
Lets play pretend and act like it comes naturally
(I promise ill be better Daddy please dont leave)
(A/N:You repeet that line again.Im just to lazy to right it)
Daddy dont lave
Daddy dont leave
Daddy dont leave
Turn around please
Remember the night you left you took my shining star?
Daddy dont leave
Daddy dont leave
Daddy dont leave
Don't leave us here alone
If there dad left the spark in there lives would be gone.Their mom went to work at 6am and came home at 10pm.They would be alone in that house for 13 hours.They couldnt handel 5 hours let alone 13.
Mom will be nicer
I'll be so much nicer,I'll be so much better
I wont spill the milk at dinner
I'll be so much better,I'll do everything right
I'll be your little girl forever
I'll go to sleep at night
"Will we ever get back together?"Nara asked herself in her mind.
A/N:Ok there you have it!!!Hope you liked it!!^__________^ Buh-bye!
