The five of them sat around the small dinner table, the tension thick in the
air. The young girl lay on the floor, covered in her older brother's jacket.
"So you are?"
"Ah, I'm sorry. My name is Yuikiro Helas. The girl is Sora Helas. We've been sent to stay with you for the summer... If that would be alright."
"Sent here? By whom?"
"Our father said that we have an older half brother by the name of Sohma. He told me we would..."
He paused a moment, searching for the correct wording.
"...be able to locate you here."
There was another long silence.
Shigure stood, exiting the room and shutting the door behind him. Tohru stared at the door before looking back to the near dopleganger of the dog jyuunishi.
"You are...Shigure-san's brother?"
"Thats what I have been told...Miss...?"
"My name is Honda Tohru."
Yuikiro looked to the other two jyuunishi who were brooding in silence on the other side of the table.
"And you are?"
"Sohma Kyou."
"My name is Sohma Yuki, we are cousins of Shigure."
"Ah, I see."
There was a groan from behind him and the girl sat up, rubbing her eyes.
"Ahnnnn..."
She said something in a language that the three residence of the Sohma house hold couldn't quite understand. Her brother replied in the same forgien tounge.
"Who is you?"
Tohru blinked and Kyou snorted at the little girl's improper wording. She looked to be about Kisa or Hiro's age.
They gave her names in turn and she smiled and bounced up onto her feet, making over exagerated hand gestures.
"I am Sora Helas, from United States."
The small ashen haired girl said with and exagerated bow to match her hands.
Yuikiro smiled appologetically.
"Please excuse my sister, she has not fully learned your language yet."
They began talking as the girl looked curiously around the room, peering outside at the backyard and following the route Shigure had taken out of the room.
She looked around the entrance area and the hallway beyond, she backed up, intending to turn around, but she bumped into something...or someone.
She looked up, blinking at the tall man with blue eyes.
"You smell of dog."
She said and she smiled.
