"Hey Kira, are you going to finish that sundae?"
Kira groaned and pushed the extra large sundae toward Harumi.
"I feel sick! How can you eat that much, Harumi?"
Tatsuya laughed his ass off as Harumi turned red and attempted to defend her growing appetite. He stopped though, when Harumi punched him in the shoulder- hard.
"Shut up Tatsuya! I'm a growing girl! I can't afford to keep up this gorgeous booty without the help of some ice cream!"
Tatsuya snorted under his breadth, but Harumi heard it and began giving him a noogie in front of everyone at the café. Kira began to giggle, and then laugh uncontrollably at the sight of her two friends noogieing each other. Both Tatsuya and Harumi stopped when they heard Kira's golden tinkle of laughter. They couldn't remember when they had heard her laugh ever since Rei had broken up with her. She stopped and blushed when she realized that her friends were staring at her as if she had grown another head.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to laugh at you two, but--"
Harumi barked out a laugh. She wiped a few stray tears from her cheek.
"If it makes you happy Kira, I'll be glad to oblige you some more!"
And so she went back to noogieing Tatsuya who once again began shouting insults at her.
"Dammit 'Rumi! Stoppit, you huge-hipped hippo!!!!!"
"WHAT WAS THAT?!"
"AAAHHHHH, KIRA HELP MEEEEEEEE!!!"
Kira burst out laughing again at Tatsuya's misery. Even she couldn't remember when she had laughed that hard.
Three hours later…
As soon as Kira passed through the front door, she sensed that something was very, very wrong. And when she noticed the extra pair of business shoes next to her mother's she began to feel the all-too familiar chills that ran down her spine whenever her step-father came home.
"Kira? Is that you? You're home late!"
"That's alright. You know how teenagers are these days. Kira, come here!"
She began to tremble at the sound of his voice. Vivid memories began to flash before her eyes. She heard his voice telling her to quiet down. Telling her to take off his belt- his pants so that he could-
"Kira?"
She blinked twice before noticing that her mother was standing in front of her; a concerned look flashing across her face.
"I- I'm not hungry, Mom."
"But Kira-"
"Please Mom, I'm not hungry!"
She wrenched free of her mother's grasp and fled up the stairs. She had to get away from his presence; away from the house. As she stumbled up the stairs, she heard her mother apologizing to him.
"I'm so sorry dear, I don't know what got into her."
[Note:: If anyone remembers what Kira's mom's name is could you please tell me? Or else I might have to make up a name for her. I can't seem to remember what it was or if it was mentioned in the manga.
"It's alright. I'm sure that she just has to adjust to the fact that I'm here now, and I'm not going anywhere this time."
Kira nearly threw up when he said that. She couldn't even imagine what her life would turn into if he continued to stay with them.
Once a rapist, always a rapist.
She covered her ears, wishing that the voice in her head would go away.
Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist. Once a rapist, always a rapist.
Kira stumbled into her room and threw her bag on her bed, still trying to cover her ears. She needed to get away. She had to get away. Gathering some clothes and fresh underwear, she stuffed it into the large duffle bag that she kept hidden away in her closet. She crept down the stairs, careful not to make any noise. As she passed by the dining room, she heard him laugh.
"I'm sure that everything will be alright. And besides, with me at home now, that good-for-nothing boyfriend of hers wont ever bother her again. I'll be sure to take very. good. care. of her."
Kira gagged and quickly, but quietly, opened the front door and dashed into the night.
>>Please review!!! And no flames[please
>>Who do you think Kira's gonna run to???? Cuz it sure isn't Harumi!!
>>And again, if anyone can remember what Kira's mom's name was, please tell me. [If she even had a name to begin with. I'm not sure if it was mentioned in the manga.
