Ma noticed Daniel, and I were back in our not talking stage, so we are once again ordered to spend time with each other, more brother and sister twin bonding time for us, that's how I was currently sitting in our maintenance man's home or shed it kind of looks like both.
Mr. Miyagi was more than happy to let me in this time after Daniel pushed me into apologizing for my earlier behavior "Happy Halloween. You like?" The old man whose company I was enjoying more than I thought I would have said holding up a giant pumpkin.
"Yeah, that's nice" Daniel smiled before Mr. Miyagi turned to me and silently holding up the pumpkin with a smile on his face "It looks great" I agreed with a small smile unable to contain the joy the older man radiates.
"Passed school today. Lots happening" Miyagi mentioned look between Daniel and me "I gave Betty a list of things to do today, if she screws it up I will kill her" I muttered crossing my arms thinking about the dull blonde cheerleader who was all too happy to help.
"Not literally" I added quickly getting a look from Mr. Miyagi as Daniel rolled his eyes going silent "What's the matter? You're not going?" The older man asked my brother who folded his arms and shrugged "No."
"How come?" Miyagi asked taking off his bandanna and put the pumpkin by two others "I'm not into dancing that much" Daniel answered walking over to us "I don't feel like it, anyway."
I squinted at Daniel reading his expression as Miyagi hummed "You're too much by self. Not good" I smirked as Daniel gave me a small glare knowing something sarcastic was on the tip of my tongue.
"I'm not by myself. I'm with you" My twin grumbled taking a soda out of Mr. Miyagi's red mini fridge before literally throwing one at me as I muttered a small annoyed "thanks."
"To make honey, young bee need young flower, not old prune," Miyagi told us as I let out a loud laugh "Daniel is not a young bee, more like an annoying pest" Daniel pushed me off the chair I was sitting on as I laughed.
"I don't have a costume, anyway" Daniel muttered as I frowned at him "What about the money mom gave you?" Daniel looked over to me sheepishly "spent it" I smirked knowingly, Daniel was not good with money.
"Have you got one?" He asked me quietly almost as if he thought I didn't want to talk with him "Yeah I made one, it's nothing special" I told him taking a sip of my drink as he raised his eyebrows at me "Where's your money?" I grinned from behind my soda can "Spent it."
Daniel gave me the first genuine laugh and smile I had seen for a while "Guess we're more alike than we thought" I bit my lip and gave a small nod "Yeah I guess so" I answered clearing my throat awkwardly.
Mr. Miyagi walked over to us looking deep in thought "If have costume...you go?" Daniel shrugged offhandedly "If I went as the Invisible Man" I looked at my brother confused, why would he want to be invisible?
"Invisible Man?" Mr. Miyagi asked Daniel before looking at me for guidance "You know, invisible so that no one would see him" Mr. Miyagi just ahh'd before walked around throwing things onto his worktable.
"What are you doing?" I asked him as he muttered to himself collecting more things, I looked at Daniel, but he just shrugged looking as confused as I felt "making invisible man" Miyagi answered pointing to the stuff lay on his worktop.
I nodded slowly "Yeah he can go as a pile of garbage" I laughed sarcastically getting another glare from my brother as Miyagi shook his head "Katherine good at making costumes" he insinuated pointing the to pile of things he'd picked out.
"Oh no, I am not..." I stopped when I saw the look on Miyagi's face and released if I wanted to get a healthy relationship with Daniel like we've kinda had today then helping him with a costume might just do that "Okay."
I sighed and started rifling through the junk as Daniel looked at me shocked "You're going to help me with a costume" I nodded silently picking up the spotty shower curtain having no idea what to make.
Mr. Miyayi walked away as Daniel stood by my side "Why are you helping me?" I looked at him with a frown "because you're my big brother" I noticed Daniel's eyes water a little before he sniffed and looked away.
"I know I've been a shitty sister and horrible person, but you're still my big brother, however much we hate each other right now you need me," I told him as I picked up a gold plated shower head.
"I didn't...I don't hate you" Daniel whispered as I looked at him blankly "I hated you" Daniel gulped as I spoke to him honestly remembering everything we've been through, all the rough patches, the physical fist fights "and now?".
I glanced up at Daniel whose jaw had tightened looking like he wanted to cry "I don't" I answered simply as I looked over at the shower head again suddenly getting an idea "An invisible man huh?".
Gathering all of the items in my hands I walked over the door to go make Daniel's costume, but I stopped glancing back at him noticing he looked less defeated.
"If you want the girl Daniel you need to go and get her, stop ignoring her like a child otherwise someone else will treat her the way you should be" I advised knowing my brother could lose the girl if he carried on being an idiot.
Daniel looked over to me surprised but didn't say anything, "and whatever is going on with you right now, why you're being secretive and coming home with bruises, I've got your back. All you have to do is ask, and I'll be there".
My brother gave me a half smile that I noticed looked a little sad "It's nothing for you to worry about" frowning I sighed knowing it was definitely something, but he obviously didn't want me to know about.
"I can't help you if you don't tell me what's going on Daniel" again my brother just shrugged with a sad expression "I don't think you can help me."
