The closer we got the more nervous I became. Would they remember me? Would they recognize me? Would things be like they use to be? I didn't know the answers to the questions, well I knew the answer to the last one. I wish I could say that the answer would be yes, things would be the same, but I knew for sure it wouldn't be.
I could feel the car slowing down as we stopped in front of an apartment building. I let my violet eyes scan over the building bringing memories I thought I had forgotten.
"Abira honey this is it."
I knew she was looking at me with those icy blue eyes I use to love.
"I'm fine mom. Lets go see Atsuko and Yusuke."
I sent her a smile as I started making my way up the stairs. Mom taking the lead as we passed a person. I don't know but something intrigued me about the person but I don't know what. Maybe it was the way his red hair poured over his slender shoulders shielding his face from any passerby. If it wasn't for his body being slender but somewhat muscular I would of thought he was a girl.
"Mom are even sure they will be home? I mean you didnt even let Atsuko or Yusuke know we were coming."
"Honey I called Atsuko while you were listening to that crap you consider music."
A scowl appeared on my face."Its not crap mom"
All she did was smile and knock on a door rather loudly. My scowl started to disappear when the door opened to show an older but still beautiful Atsuko holding a cigarette. Right off the bat she smiled and hugged my mom knowing exactly who she was. Then she turned to me recognition didn't appear like it did for my mom.
"Who's the kid with you ,Taya?"
"Don't tell me you don't remember my daughter, Abira."
I looked down at my self to see if I looked more different than i usually do. Combat boots, white and black stripped stockings, red mini skirt, and a white spaghetti strap covered by my black panda eared jacket, nope nothing was different.
To say my consentraion on if I changed or not was shattered would be an understatment. It was demolished by Atsuko hugging me.
"You sure did change since last time I saw you."
"I don't see how but thanks for the hug and when do I get to see Yusuke."
"Sorry hun but hes at Genkai's temple."
"You can't be serious stupid Yusuke being Yusuke." I could hear my mom laugh along with Atsuko but didn't care.
"Could I go see him at this temple place?"
"Sure kid you should find it eventually with your sense of direction."
"Oh you know I will" I said starting to walk out as I took my mp3 player out but stopped mid step.
"Atsuko I know my mom told you about why we moved but promise me that you won't tell Yusuke."
After a quick nod I leaped out of the apartment and into the adventure of finding Yusuke.
