6. Going Under

Three weeks have passed since the incident with Sora and Taichi. I guess it wasn't such a good idea after all. I always thought that my brother would be able to deal with Sora, but she is too closed inside herself. I don't know what else to do.

Since that day, Sora only grew more apart from us. She started dating Kay. I never thought that could eventually happen, but it did. I remember clearly that day. It was after the incident.

--Flashback--

I was walking to school along with my brother, Takeru and Tsubane. I don't like her because she is always after my brother. She always manages to steal away what little time we have together. I would prefer so much more that Sora was with my brother. That would avoid so many problems.

Anyway, we were walking to school and the first thing we saw was Sora sitting on a bench under a sakura tree. I could see my brother smiling widely as he walked in her direction, but before he could get there, Kay appeared from apparently nowhere. I watched the scene along with Tsubane a little back, Taichi ahead of us, like always. He was holding a textbook and his bag was swung over his shoulder.

Sora stood up and went to meet kay. The next scene sort of shocked me since I had never imagined Sora could do that with a guy besides my brother. She embraced him and he hugged her, and they shared a kiss. But I guess it wasn't just the kiss, they seemed to be glued together. I could see Kay's arms squeezing Sora against him, and from a simple kiss, the moment went on to more complex stuff.

The next thing I heard was Taichi's textbook and bag hitting the ground when his arms dropped down in stupefaction. Tsubane watched him with an evil glare. She hadn't liked Taichi holding Sora's hands the day before and I guess she didn't like him to be shocked like that either.

--End of Flashback--

After that day, many things happened. Tsubane and my brother started having fights because Taichi was always trying to spy on Sora, and though he said it was to see if they weren't doing anything wrong, Tsubane started getting suspicious about something else and so did I. I guess my brother loved Sora after all, and he just didn't know that.

One week after the incident, Tsubane broke up with my brother slamming her house's door in his face. But that didn't seem to have affected my brother.

Then, about three days ago, something else happened. It was Mimi's birthday. She turned seventeen that day, but it was a day to forget.

--Flashback--
Mimi had invited all her friends, and that included Sora, though she had been distant from us lately. But I think even Sora got surprised by her offer and so she went along with Kay. Mimi had invited him too, because he was Sora's boyfriend. Otherwise, like she said, he would never put his feet inside her house.

Everything was working as Mimi and I had planned. Yeah, we had planned everything. While Yamato and Takeru talked to Kay, or more like distracted Kay, Mimi and I would have a chat with Sora. That, however, didn't go as planned.

My brother was chatting with Jyou and Koushiro. He was the only one that didn't know about the plan. Sora ran out of the house crying. She was angry, very angry. Kay couldn't help noticing his girlfriend walking out and so he followed.

We don't really know what happened outside, but I do know that my brother went there to see if Sora was okay. At first it seemed like nothing bad had happened but then we heard Sora yelling at Taichi and when he got back inside, he had blood on his knukles but he wasn't bleeding.

He headed to the bathroom without a word, but since I'm his sister I could tell he went there to cry. My brother doesn't like other people seeing him cry. Mimi ran to Yamato's arms crying too because our plan hadn't worked out and had managed to make things even worst.

I was upset too, not only for my brother but for Sora too. I remembered the angry words she shouted at him. "It's my life and I do whatever I want with it, either you like it or not." I wondered what he had seen. Maybe she was smoking again, maybe something worst.

--End of Flashback--

My brother didn't tell me what happened that day. But since then, he has become so sad, so unhappy. I think after seeing her with another guy he really discovered that he loves her.

I remember when he talked about his and Sora's childhood. It seemed they only had good memories. He spends most of his classfree time seeing pictures of them. I feel so sorry for him, but Sora is with Kay now and she seems to want to forget my brother and Kay is doing a pretty good job. How, I don't know, but it mustn't be good.


I hope you've liked it so far. I think you got the part that this chapter was Hikari's POV. I needed someone to tell how Sora's friends were feeling and how Taichi was feeling and who's better than Hikari. I told you she would have an important role on this one.
