Summary: Tohru is unable to make an appearance at dinner.


"Kyo," a voice murmured softly in the distance. Apathetic, the flame-haired teen paid no mind to it.

"Kyo," the voice repeated, the tone of his voice steadier and more determined. Once again, Kyo continued in his exercise.

"KYO!" the voice sharpened, annoyance made apparent. Pausing in his practice, Kyo concentrated on the voice and just answered back with a, "What, dammit?!"

"Tohru called to let us know that she won't be able to get here on time. There was a minor mix-up at the hospital, and she's cleaning up a few of the rooms that the staff missed."

"So?"

"I tried to heat up last night's leftovers, and the microwave nearly exploded."

"WHAT?!" Kyo spun around, stomping towards his blank-faced rival. Though Yuki's expression betrayed nothing, the significantly darker-haired teen was toeing the ground with his shoe, arms crossed behind his back. Kyo halted in his mono-stampede and walked slowly towards the rat, nearly chuckling in amusement at his cousin's demeanor: a slight pull of the teen's features signaled a seemingly reluctant contriteness.

"Fine, I'll go cook," he turned towards the direction of the house and shook his head, all thoughts of ripping the fucker to shreds gone. Right before he slid open the shouji doors, Yuki's voice loudly called out, "Stupid Cat!"

"WHAT?"

"I MAY HAVE ALSO SET A POT OF BOILING WATER ON FIRE!"

"Shit!"


Author's Note:

So, I haven't tried to write for this fandom for a while. I'm afraid my characterization isn't quite up to part :P

Please do leave me a review, even for the smallest of things.
