Chapter Two It was midnight when Kenshin and Kaoru were on the main street to the temple. Kenshin still had 4 bumps remaining and was staying as far away from her as possible. She still had a mean look on her face but it was mixed with confusion.

Who was that girl? Does Kenshin know her? Her concentration concerned and frightened Kenshin. Was she still mad at him? Either way, he hoped she wouldn't hit him anymore.

"Kenshin, you know that girl from the street? Do you know her?" Kaoru asked, breaking the silence between them. Kenshin tensed. Taking a deep breath, he said

"What will you do if I said yes?"

"Something." Kaoru simply said.

"Oh. Um... Yes?"

"Oh. How?"

"You want to know?" Kaoru nodded.

"Ok... um... well... she kinda looks like...like...Tsumi..."

"Who's Tsumi?"

Major pause.

"My ex-wife..."
