It all started with a mid-life crisis, a new love named Aurora, and a divorce. It was a rainy day, and the weather condition showed no signs of improving. Two 15 year old twin girls by the names of Nyokina* and Ryokina** stared out the wide elegant window watching the rain pour, while kneeling on the couch.
"Oh I hate rainy days!" Nyokina pouted, and plopped down on the overstuffed Victorian sofa.
"Really? I love rainy days. I always seem to be happier on these kind of days." The chocolate haired Ryokina replied, sitting next to her sister.
"Yeah, but you're my gloomy counterpart!" Nyokina said, "Not to mention that Mom relates us to Chi and Freya from iChobits/i, and gives us outfits similar to theirs as well."
"I happen to like the outfits Nyo-chan." Ryokina replied.
"So do I, and I'm glad Mom makes our outfits! Just imagine you with punk or Goth clothes!" Ryokina said with a burst of laughter.
"What's wrong with punks or Goths? Just because I'm more of the melancholy type doesn't mean I'm going to turn into a rebel.***" Ryokina replied. Nyokina ignored the comment when a limo pulled up in the driveway circle. "It's Daddy!" yelled Nyokina and rushed out of the room and downstairs. Ryokina went to go get Hikari and Seito (Nyokina and Ryokina's other two siblings, also twins), and their uncle Mokuba, who was now 17.
"DADDY!" Nyokina cried, and glomped her father Seto, who was now damp from the rain. The others had followed into the entrance room of the mansion as well. Little did they notice that Seto had brought in company until the visitor entered. "Hikari, go get your mother. The rest of you are to stay in your rooms until further notice. Mokuba, you are to go to the den with me and tell the others what happened after the discussion. And I don't want any interruption of any sort until this is over, understand?" Seto said in his icy tone. Hikari quickly went up the stairs and ushered for her mother, while her siblings went to their rooms with looks of distraught, concern, and confusion on their faces.
"Mother… Father wishes to speak with you in the den." Hikari said from the doorway. A lady with a short (around five foot), but ladylike structure turned towards her daughter from her dresser. She had lightly tanned skin, chocolate brown with a hint of olive green eyes, and shoulder length, layered and flipped dark brown hair. She smiled at her third child, and realized the worried look onher daughter's face. "What is it Hikari?" she asked, walking over to her and stroking her daughter's long dark brown hair. "I don't know, but I have a bad feeling about things…" Hikari and her mother went downstairs to the den's double doors where Mokuba was waiting, and the two went in, leaving Hikari to return to her room.
Inside the den, the only source of light was coming from the fireplace. Mokuba directed his sister-in-law to the sofa across from Seto's. As she walked towards the sofa, she wondered why the dark-haired woman was sitting next to her husband instead of herself sitting next to him. Mokuba had tken place next to Seto's wife just in case something unexpected came.
"Lilielle, I'm sorry to say this to you… But I'm divorcing you and I'm going to be engaged to Aurora." Seto said. Lilielle's eyes widened; she had never thought Seto's mid-life crisis would cause him to resolve to this.
"WHAT?!" Mokuba yelled, "How could you do this Seto?! Just because of some stupid problem, your resolution is divorce and marrying some whore?" the lady took offense to Mokuba's remark and glared at him.
"Aurora is not a whore!" Seto said placing his hand over Aurora's.
"Of all the stupid decisions you could have made in this world, why did it have to be uTHIS/u? Auntie Lilielle's done absolutely NOTHING to you, and this is how you repay her for kindness, love, and devotion?! Auntie Lilielle, don't you have anything at all to say in the matter?!" Mokuba yelled.
"Yes," Lilielle answered, "are you going to abandon your children and myself?" she calmly asked.
"No," Seto replied, "all of you will stay here."
Mokuba had argued with Seto late into the night. Lilielle had promptly left after her question was answered, and was instructed to move her things into the guest room at the end of the hall. He children had heard their mother cry tears of deep sadness, anger, and confusion the whole night.
