Who's that girl?
"Look Kaede,we need to talk."Mr Rukawa said.He sounded like he was in a hurry to end the conversation before it had started.
Rukawa looked at his father with his kitsune eyes and frowned even more than he already was.
'He doesn't usually talk to me.What did I do this time?'he thought.
"Ummm...yeah so like you know I never told you much about your mom or anything like that."he said, his voice was shaking.
"Get to the point Dad,"Rukawa said.His voice was as calm as ever when he said that but it did have a sense of irritation.
"Yeah well..ummm...you have a ummm a..,"Mr Rukawa did not get to finish when the doorbell rang.
Rukawa swung the door open and infront of him was 2 girls.
He eyed the smaller girl.She seemed so familiar yet he was sure he had never seen her in his life.The other girl,well,she was more woman than girl.
"Yes?"He asked with a sour look on his face.It was definately not a very good morning for him.
"Kae-chan!"The lady squealed in excitement.
"what?"
"Oh you're so tall and big and handsome now Kae-chan and I really wanna ask so much about you and how's life going but I really really have to hit the road now honey so ta-ta."The lady blew him a quick kiss and hopped into her red convertable with another man leaving the girl behind.
The girl was quite tall her black hair was tied up into a ponytail and she was wearing the Shohoku uniform.She kept on looking at the ground.
Rukawa stopped looking at her and gave his father a what-didn't-you-tell-me look.
His father pushed up his glasses and said,"That was your mother and this I believe is probably your sister."
"What the..."He looked at the girl again and back at his father.
"Aren't you going to come in?"Mr. Rukawa asked,she had been standing at the door for quite some time.
She shook her head.She had a shy and sweet smile on her face.
"School's starting soon."she said.Her voice was just as sweet as her face.
"Well then...Kaede won't you take her lugguage to the guest room and take her to school.I have to go to work now."his father said grabbing his briefcase.
He left his son a a big state of shock.
'Umm...if you'll show me where the guest room is I'll take my stuff there by myself,"The girl whispered.
She spoke so softly Rukawa almost didn't catch what she said.
"Its fine."he said as he picked up her bags and brought them to the room.
He swung his school bag over his shoulder and walked out the door.
"I don't think you wanna ride a bike with your skirt so....you don't mind walking do you?"he asked.
The girl shook her head.
"What's your name?"she asked him,her eyes were still looking at the floor as they walked.
"Its Kaede...you should probably already now my last name unless you don't know yours."
The girl nodded.This time she raised her head and looked at him.
It wasn't very obvious that they were siblings.Rukawa had more of a cool and calm look.
His sister was the cute and shy type.
"What's your name,how old are you and what are you doing here?"he asked raising his eyebrows in curiousity.
"I'm Kaeze,I'm 15 and my step father has an expedetion in eygpt.He's a scientist.Mom thought I shouldn't go along cause its really hard to adapt there.So they won't be back for a pretty long time."she said.
"You're 15?How can you be 15 if I'm 15?We're not twins are we?"he asked with a puzzeled look on his face.
"We are..you're older than me by a whole 10 minutes."
"Oh"was all Rukawa managed to say.
"What do I call you?"she asked.
Rukawa thought for a moment.Everyone always calls him Rukawa but she can't cause she's his sister.But he doesn't like it when people call him Kaede or Kae-chan.
"I don't know.You decide,"he mumbled.
"Alright,nii-chan."she giggled.
"Why are you laughing?"
"I thought my brother would turn out to be some kind of jerk.But you're far from that."
"Am I?"
"Hai hai."
Before they knew it they had already arrived at school.
