Tenchi's True Love

Chapter 3: Heartfelt Heartbreak

________________________________________________________

One might say it's wrong. One might think it's foolish. For a man to live in a house with seven women, who love him. You might say it is every man's dream, others might say it is a nightmare. You can only imagine the trouble one would get into if one announced his plans to get married, especially to one of the women who live with him. Tenchi Masaki is that one, it seemed everyone took his abrupt announcement well, except for one, Ryoko

To have the one you love say that he is going to marry another, tears your heart in two. You cannot help but cry, to seek revenge, to hurt the one that you care for, but Ryoko couldn't, he seemed happy, they all seemed happy. How dare they?

Ryoko floated through the wall, tears streaming down her face. How could he do this to her, marry that bitch Sakuya? She floated higher and higher, through the atmosphere to the quiet coldness of space to reflect.

A mother is what he wants, a mother for his daughter. Tenchi said she needed one, does he think that I am not qualified, she thought to herself. Sure I have stolen, blown up stuff and even killed, but I'm not that person anymore. HE changed me, some say for the best. I love Tenchi, why couldn't he see that? I want to have his children and love his daughter as my own, why couldn't he see that?

During every major event of his life, I have been there. When his fascination with that damn cave started, I was there. When he lost his mother and grandmother, I was there. It hurts me the most to see him with her. Why?

She floated to the asteroid belt that was near Earth. She slammed her fist into one of them, shattering it, causing space dust floated from the destroyed asteroid.

"WHY!!" she roared into airless space. She cried even harder, her tears freezing to her face, like icicles that hung from the shrine when it snowed.

"Why not me?"

"Why not me?" she repeated for no one to hear her

Mayuka was the happiest child in the world. I love her as if she was my own; love her more than life itself. Could he not see that? I would gladly give my life to protect that child.

Sure, when she first came to us, we had our problems. But when Washu brought her back as a baby, it made me so happy. A baby that was Tenchi's, I could hold it in my arms and dream that it was his and mine. To hold her when she was frighten, to nurse her when she is sick, to send her to school on her first day. To teach her life lessons and to love her father until my dying day. All I ask his for his love in return

Ryoko floated in a circle, not crying anymore

She knew today was Mayuka's birthday; she couldn't believe that she had been gone almost two weeks. She wanted to get back and hold that baby in her arms again.

And to show to Tenchi that she understands, and wishes him all the luck and happiness.

She teleported back to Earth, stopping in a near-by town to buy a present for Mayuka. Her last thought about the whole situation was:

At least it wasn't Ayeka
