No Regrets

The rain seemed to only get heavier as it became darker but it didn't matter, for all i cared about was to reach my destination. I had my cloak hood over my head and continued. I wanted my mission complete today, the day i had lost my most precious people.

I stopped a few hours later as I reached my destination. My eyes felt uneasy recalling the exact day 10 years ago.

I rushed home after school excited about the outing my parents had promised, but my house seemed unusually silent and my dad's friend suddenly rushed out from my house, pushing me aside and then he quickened his pace. It was all so confusing for a girl who was only 10 years old, but things became clear as I entered my parents' room. Blood was smeared all over, my parents were killed that day 10 years ago. I knew it had been my dad's friend but it was betrayal, all he wanted was the company to be all his, but he had killed my parents. So here i was after 10 years of searching, at his hide out, my dad's company. My heart felt heavy recalling it all but with today it would all end, my 10 years of searching will finally put me at ease, I will finally achieve the revenge I had longed for.

I made my way into the company through the opened window and sneaked around making my way into the manager's room. I grabbed the knife in my pocket and pushed open the door, peaking in, I saw the man I had awaited to see for so long, my dad's so called friend, he was busily scribbling on a paper, I sneaked my way in and made my way around, I placed my knife at his neck and he was surprised.

"You're friend's daughter is here with a message, she hates you for betraying her parents and more than anything for killing her precious parents," I told him with detest in my voice.

"Ayako..." he called my name as my eyes filled with tears and I made my move.
I rushed out of the office, my cloak pulled off and hair let loose. The rain seemed to refresh me from the deed I had committed, it seemed to cleanse my evil heart and bring it calmness. Today I will continue my life as a proud child of my parents though I knew too well that they wouldn't be happy to see me this way but I've completed what he started and now i can continue my life with no regrets...no regrets at all.
