Title: Broken String
"It's not my fault!"
Kyo tried to pick up the bead. It eluded his clumsy grasp and dropped back to the floor.
"It's not my fault! The string just broke!"
This was much worse than when Akito took it, when Kagura took it. The string was broken. And he couldn't put it back together again.
Suddenly, the door opened. Kyo looked up fearfully.
She was covering her eyes. "Go into the bathroom and wait. I'll fix the bracelet. Then you can put it back on. Go... go now!"
Kyo left. 'But it's not my fault, Mom,' he dared not say.
