Theme #9- Illusion
Last night, she told him she loved him. She told him she needed him to keep her close and that they should be together from then on. She told him that they should keep their love a secret from the rest of the Sohma family, in case any of them thought badly of it.
By night, they meet and they are together, and by day they have to make everything seem like it's the same. So today he watches as he walks past her door which stands ajar, watches from the table as she prepares dinner for he, Shigure and Yuki.
And in his mind, he wonders if the whole thing was just an illusion. The beauty and kindness that is Tohru loving him? How could it be? But as she looks up to ask him if he wants more food, he sees a spark in her eye, a little bit of mischief hidden somewhere deep inside her.
He smiles, and decides that it cannot be an illusion. He waits for midnight to come, when they will see each other as lovers again, when he will be able to kiss her, even if he can't hold her. The illusion is gone from Kyo's eye. He knows this is reality.
