Chapter 3: Bitter Cold
The next few days for Kyo were full of bitterness. Tohru wasn't talking to him, but she wasn't screaming at him either. She was like a shell to him now, empty and silent…well, unless she was around Yuki.
That was what got him the most.
She was coddling Yuki even more than usual and spending more and more time with the damn rat. Was it to get him jealous? It couldn't have been. He didn't even like her and she hated him now. Besides, Tohru wasn't like that. What was wrong with her anyways?
Kyo sighed and stared dully down at his bowl of rice. He really didn't have an appetite but he didn't want Tohru to think he didn't like her food either, so he picked up the chopsticks and shoved the plain rice into his mouth.
His jaw worked mechanically and the food was gone in a flash. He couldn't even taste it.
"Yuki?" Tohru asked sweetly. "Do you want some more rice?"
Warm violet eyes gazed into her chocolate ones. "No, I'm ok. Thanks, Tohru…it's delicious."
She smiled at him and stood up. "Enjoy your dinner, then, ok?"
Kyo watched with frustrated eyes as she stood up and walked towards the stairs. He knew she was going to her room. Every day now, she'd finish dinner earlier than usual, ask Yuki if he needed anything, and then head up to her bedroom.
Well, whatever was wrong, he was planning on finding out.
