BTK here! A little warning... this chappie is kinda lame...!
Disclaimer: No RK characters are own by me but Lilika does and wish that the kiss she got were mine too.
Lilika woke up and touched her lips with a confused expression on her face.
'What a weird dream I had.'-she thought standing up. The bedroom door was partially opened so she peeked through and went out. The day became night and she felt hungry. Lilika entered the kitchen and found Sanosuke there. He looked at her. She stood there looking at him. A tear fell of his cheek and then he fell on his knees sobbing.
"I'm sorry for what I did sis."-he said looking at the floor- "I didn't wanted to tell you because you had had so many worries ever since mother and father died..." Lilika looked down at him. She walked towards him and kneed at his side.
"Is fine brother."-she said.
"NO IS NOT!"-Sanosuke yelled looking at her with teary eyes- "I hurt you. Physically and sentimentally."
"Is fine brother."-she said again smiling at him with a tear gently falling down her cheek- "I have forgiven you ever since they died. I knew you where going to fell in the traps of life. I know you well brother. And you know me. Why don't you believe in what I'm saying?"
"I do believe sis."-he said cleaning her tears.
"Then why don't you show it?"-she asked.
"I try to but it's hard. You have to understand it"-Sanosuke answered.
"I do understand! You're the one that doesn't!"-Lilika yelled a little mad. Sanosuke stood up. He looked at her. He wanted to hit her. The anger inside him was strong. Lilika didn't fear him. She looked at him from the floor. He then raised his hand. He couldn't do it. He realized that the anger wasn't because of her... it was because of himself. He was guilty of his actions. He didn't need to take them out on Lilika. He lowered his hand, turned around and walked away felling guilty.
The house felt silent. No sound came from any of the rooms. During the rest of the night Lilika and Sanosuke tried to avoid each other, but knew that was impossible. She fixed herself something to eat and entered her room. Sanosuke did the same thing. Then, a question came to her. Where's Kenshin? She opened Sano's bedroom door and asked.
"He went home."-he answered avoiding eye contact.
"Oh"-she said. Silence. The only thing heard for the next few seconds until Lilika decided to go to her room.
On the next morning there wasn't much talk. Lilika wasn't sure if her brother was sad or angry. She worried for him but didn't dare to ask. What is she suppose to do?
"I'll go for a walk."-she said almost in a whisper. Leaving the house she contacted her other side trying to forget everything. Entering the woods deeper and deeper. Suddenly humming was heard. She started to sing sweet songs. The sadness was gone... at least for now.
It was almost noon. Lilika didn't ate much breakfast so she felt hungry. Looking around she found an apple tree.
"Great!"-she said happily- "But they're too high." While she thought of a way to get them down Kenshin was coming the other way.
"It's obvious."-she said. Lilika raised her open hand towards the tree.
'What is she doing?'-Kenshin thought looking at her strangely. Suddenly the unbelievable happened. The tree bended in front of her and gave her the apple gently.
"Thank you."-she said smiling. Taking a bite she turned around and kept walking. Kenshin quickly hid behind a bush. After she passed Kenshin followed her.
"Lilika"-he said. The girl jumped.
"Don't scare me like that."-she said with a hand on her chest. She turned around and said- "I had a dream about you yesterday. You kissed me. It was weird but it felt so nice at the same time." Kenshin blushed lightly.
"It wasn't a dream."-he whispered looking at the floor. Lilika touched her lips again and blushed.
"But that's not important right now."-he said trying to change the subject- "I saw you right now. What happened to the tree?" Lilika stood there silent.
"Answer me please."-he demanded.
"I...I..."-she said.
"Tell me"-he said putting his hands on her shoulders and looking her straight at her eyes. She turned her head away and said almost in a whisper- "I... can control nature." Kenshin let go of her. He was speechless.
"I never thought I would have to reveal a secret so big to a stranger."-she said.
"Is there anything else you can tell me?"-Kenshin said now calming down.
"Yes."-she answered- "I'm in pain all the time. Everything nature feels I feel. I'm dying slowly inside. The pain's too big for my heart."
"Do you really feel like that?"-he asked astonished but without showing it.
"Yes."-Lilika said- "I just don't show it... but my heart does. And I got all of these problems around me. I also get hurt easily."
"What do you mean by get hurt easily?"-he asked again.
"See that flower?"-she said pointing at it.
"Yes."-he replied.
"Cut it."-she ordered. Kenshin denied to.
"Cut it."-she repeated.
"What will happen to you?"-he asked.
"Cut it and you'll see."-she said. Kenshin took his sword out and did as he was told. Lilika gasped for a moment Kenshin quickly turned around to see that Lilika's cheek was bleeding.
"What happened to you?"-Kenshin asked cleaning Lilika's blood with his clothes.
"You cut the flower."-she answered smiling.
"And yet you smile."-he said putting the flower on her hair.
"I guess I've learned to resist most of the pain in a way that you can say that I don't feel them anymore."-Lilika said. Kenshin smiled at her way of looking everything in positive sides.
"I'll go home now."-the girl said turning around.
"I'll go with you."-he added standing next to her. Both of them walked together.
"Kenshin?"-Lilika said without looking at him.
"Yes?"-the handsome guy asked.
"Would you keep my secret?"-she asked now looking at him.
"I won't tell a soul, bet I won't"-Kenshin said smiling at her. She smiled back while both continued walking.
