"What about Shine Komusume?"
"Tell us everything that you know about her."
Yorozuya no Danna gave a blank look at both Sougo and I.
"Are you crazy?" he said, waving his left arm back and forth, "why would I do such thing when I completely forgot about her? She- the person from the past."
"The person from the past?" I yelled, "you were just with her two days ago!"
I watched as Danna, who sat on the couch in front of us, scratch the back of his head and sighed.
"I have nothing to tell you two. Now go home. Its just a waste of time-"
"Yorozuya no Danna," Sougo called, getting Danna's attention, "is it okay for you? Is it okay for you to just leave her like that? You don't care what happens to her? You don't care if something bad happens to her?"
Danna stayed silent, watching Sougo like Danna knew something was up.
Sougo crossed his legs and put his arms behind his head and leaned back on the couch. "I mean, we don't care what happens to her since she's a criminal, and if we arrest her, we would get tons of money. But... what about you?"
"I don't care about her," he finally answered, "go home where you dogs belong to. I bet the gorilla-"
"Did you know that there's a rumor that the Kiheitais are planning to destroy Bakufu?"
Danna's eyes met mine as soon as he heard what Sougo said.
"Sougo," I started, "I don't know why I have to tell you this every fucking time but... Don't tell a normal citizen some top secret stuff! We're suppose to keep it to ourselves! That's why its called 'top secret'! Did you get that? 'TOP SECRET'!"
"Hijikata-san, can you stay quiet for a moment?"
"What, you fu-"
"And also, do you still consider Yorozuya no Danna as a 'normal citizen'?"
I didn't answer to Sougo's question because I already know that he knows the answer to that question.
"Well, what do you Shinsengumi want to know about her?"
"Who is she?" I asked.
"As you all know her as- Takasugi's little sister."
I glared at him.
"What?! I have nothing else to say about who she is!"
Something's telling me that its going to take forever to get enough information about her.
"Well, isn't this interesting. Isn't it Kamui?"
Kamui never answered to what my brother had said.
I kept my head down so I didn't know what kind of facial expression Kamui and my brother had, but something was telling me that we won't be in good terms after all this.
"Are you still in love with him?"
As soon as Kamui asked me that, I looked up at him in surprise. "Of course not!" I cried, "why would I stay in love with that son of a bi-"
"Language," my brother warned.
I glared at him. "Like I give a crap about my language."
"So you aren't?" asked Kamui.
"No! I just told you!"
"Ok then. I feel fine. I have stuff to do so I'll leave you two alone. Let's go, Abuto."
"Alright, Captain."
After Kamui and Abuto left, silence filled up the room again, making me feel very uncomfortable.
"What happened to our parents?" Shinsuke asked, out of the blue.
"You mean your father and our mother," I grumbled under my breath. "I killed them both and my real father."
"Are you really over him?"
"Yes."
He stayed silent for a few moment then sat up from my chair and walked over to the door. "Don't let your emotions get in your way," he said and walked out of my room.
"Captain," Abuto called after Kamui and he walked out of Shineko's room.
"Yes?"
"Are you all right?"
"Yes, of course. Why are you asking me such thing?"
"Because you look overly happy."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"The world is a great place, is it not?"
Abuto stays silent as he closely watches his captain humming a tune, happily.
He shakes his head and mumbles, "It's a matter of time before Shineko-san announces her pregnancy."
