This is how it always starts, something small, something seemingly unimportant, something that just sets Kikyo off. Apparently I use the bathroom for too long in the morning. I am so sorry queen Kinky-ho, that I would have the audacity to take a 15 minute shower in the morning to get ready for school as opposed to your 45 minute shower and 20 minute primping time. Basically, another fight has broken out between us, it's mostly just screaming, and I almost feel bad about it, the screaming not the bathroom part, but then I think of just how ridiculous she's being, and, well, I just want to claw at her.
I had just stepped out or the bathroom into the hallway, and am towel drying my waist length midnight strands of hair, when I look up and see Kikyo standing in front of me giving me the stink eye. Almost immediately she starts going off on a rant about how I am impeding on her morning routine. Now don't get me wrong, I didn't immediately go off on her like you may think, no, I TRIED to calmly explain that she hadn't informed me of her morning schedule so I wouldn't have known that I was taking her precious primping time away from her, and that she still has plenty of time for a quick shower, and that from now on I will keep her 'primping' time in mind. I said all of this calmly half because it's the logical thing to do, and half because of that promise to my mom.
You would think that the logical reaction would have been for Kikyo to back off, and say, "it's fine, just don't do it again," but no, she had to be difficult about it. So, I just walked away, Kikyo "hmph'ed" and went to start her morning routine. I just thought to myself, 'I don't think I'm going to last the first week without slapping her.'
