The odd woman out

Jun pinched her cheek hard. "I will punish you for this once we get home."

"What did I do?"

"Don't act cheeky."

He held her hand with an expression that soon turned somber. "What did you see in there?"

Ai's eyelashes trembled. "Mom Dad…"

Without letting her say anything further, Jun pulled her in his hug. He understood that what she saw was similar to what he witnessed in the memories of his family after his death.

"Jun I saw that Mom and Dad were…k-killed in the past."

His eyes widened in utter shock. "Huh!? Killed? What are you talking about?"

"I couldn't see it clearly…" she broke down, "It had all s-started to get hazy. But I saw he was dead and Mom…" her eyes reddened, "I heard a gunshot at the end…"

Jun stared at her, aghast. 

Murdered?

"It all happened because D-Dad never gave up. He kept fighting for my justice because he never believed that I committed suicide…And that…killed him and Mom."
