Its been Two months since Torhu's cousin ,Mellin came and took Torhu away to Hong Kong , for Kyoko's family reunion (without Kyoko , of course)

Now she's back , and different …..

Tatsumi is Torhu's other cousin .

Chapter one

She stepped off the plane , exhausted . Her cousin's took her bags of the private plan and followed her to the centre airport .

Past the extended glass windows she saw her friends . The Sohma's : Kyo , Yuki , Shigure .

The doors swished opened as she walked into the air port , her cousin's following her at top speed .

The Sohma's greeted her as she took another couple of steps .

"Torhu…," greeted Shigure . He smiled at her as she stepped in front of him . The sun shone deeply on Torhu's hair , making it look a jet black and her skin extremely radiant . A breeze was slowly coming in from the door , it was still opened . Torhu's hair was now down to her knee's , swaying from the breeze .

Her fringe was blocking her eye site , but he could see her smile .

"Shigure…" she said quietly . "Kyuo , Yuki , it's great to finally see you"

Shigure's invisible dog ears wiggled : Torhu's voice was deeper and more serious to one level .

Her cousin , Tatsumi let go of Torhu's bags . Extending her arm out to Torhu . "Well it was good to see you again , T," she said smiling at Torhu .

"Tatsumi …," Torhu called surprised .

"Ah ! I think I've hogged you up for too long" she laughed . "I mean we couldn't take a year without your cooking , so I feel really sorry for them!"

Torhu sniggered .

"But it was great to see you Torhu's!" Torhu shook Tatsumi , then pulled her cousin into a hug .

"See ya soon," she said releasing her cousin .

Tatsumi turned to her cousin . "You ready to go?" she asked him .

He nodded .

"But first let me-"

"No , no," said interrupting her cousin . "I'll take my bags , it's the least"

Her cousin raised his thin black eyebrows , an look that asked her 'are you sure?'

"Yeah , I'm sure," she answered leaning over to pick up her bags . Her cousin smiled and handed her bags over .

She placed her bags on the floor and hugged him . He put one arm around her and whispered : "Take care Tor"

She smiled . "You too," she whispered back . As she went to pick her bags she quickly kissed him on the cheeks and walked back .

"Li," Tatsumi said . "we better get going , his getting impatient"

He nodded . "Catch you on the flip side Tor!" Tatsumi said quickly hugging Torhu .

"Yeah," she said , blushing .

"next month ," Tatsumi said.

"Yeah , next month," Torhu said .

Her cousins said their goodbyes to Torhu and the Sohma's before they jumped back onto their private plane .

"Torhu let us carry those for you," insisted Shigure and Yuki .

She shook her head . "No , I'm find with these," she said , lifting her bags .

"How was your family reunion ?," Yuki asked as they approached the car park .

"Brutal." she said with enthusiasm ,as opened the car door . She slid into the car and closed the door .

Yuki was in the front with Shigure and Kyuo sat next to her at the back . After she stuffed her bags in the car .

Torhu only talked for three minutes on the journey before she relaxed . "How have you guys been holding up?," she asked .

There was a awkward pause for a second : Torhu's language had changed :the way she had said things .

"Well , I suppose," Yuki answered .

She giggled . "I'm glad," she whispered , looking out the window . "So , Shigure how's work?," she asked , staring at the streets in amazement.

"Fine , thank you." he said swerving the car around the next curb .

Shigure pulled the car back into the drive way . She took her bags out .

Torhu carried her bags into the hall way . "Hay , you guys wouldn't mind if I take a rest?," she asked pausing . Waiting for their answer .

"Of course!," Sang Shigure poking his head out the sauna room .

"Thank you Shigure , I'm exhausted," she sighed , walking up stars .
