A/N: Well, this is chapter 2. I wrote this pretty quickly because I felt bad for the large between the prologue and chapter 1, so I'm getting the story caught up and will try to post a chapter every Saturday. I hope you all enjoy the chapter.
"What's up? You only clean when your pissed off... Scratch that, you clean all the time."
I stopped scrubbing the floor and flexed my fingers that had begun to hurt from the pressure that I had been applying to the floor. I looked at my fingertips that were red and hurting from my relentless scrubbing. It was true that I always cleaned but of all days did I really have to have a reason for my routine actions? I just liked a spotless house and also, it gives me something to do. Is there something wrong with that?
"So let me rephrase my question.'' Korra began,''Who pissed you off today because you have been scrubbing that spot for twenty minutes now and I'm afraid that you're going to wear a hole into that poor floor.''
Confused I removed the wet sponge from the spot that she was talking about. The spot was like a brand new shiny penny sitting in the middle of a pile of old dirty pennies. In contrast to the dark brown floor the spot was about the size of a grapefruit and was a light beige color. I hadn't even realized that I had been scrubbing so long and hard. I think I had seen a black mark on the floor and like Tahno, I had wanted to erase it and wipe it clean off the face of the Earth but from the looks of it, the black mark was long gone... but Tahno still existed.
Everything about him sickens me and makes me want to go clean something- vigorously. He frustrates me beyond belief, with his sick, flirtatious, and perverse behavior. He's the reason I come home and sanitize the whole house; I'm imagining that he's the house and needs to be cleansed of his...filth.
Today he not only seemed all the more vile and horrendous, he made me feel dirty and he made my skin crawl. When his hands ran themselves up my thighs and began lifting up my . It made me want to go home and take a shower in acid and I still don't think that would be enough to cleanse myself. He was like a boy with cooties and I needed my cootie shot and badly. I'll forever be infected and never clean.
Sighing I threw the yellow sponge into the bucket of water and bleach,''Take a guess.'' I said tiredly.
Korra scrunched her eyebrows together in thought for a couple of seconds,''Tahno?'' she asked.
I nodded,''Yeah.'' I paused not wanting to say his name least I be up to one in the morning brushing my teeth.
She frowned as she went into protective older sister mode like she does when the subject includes Tahno,''What did he do today.'' she asked seriously her voice dropping to a low level, meaning that she was starting to get pissed.
"When I was alone at my locker after lunch today, he went into creeper mode and started rubbing his hand up on my ass and asking me if I was virgin. He even went as far as to start lifting up my skirt in the middle of the hallway, it was totally creepy and gross.''
Korra snorted, a disgusting sound and plastered a disgusted look on her face,''Seriously? Who does shit like that? Can't the guy take a hint that your not interested? He's been after you since he and Mimi were together.''
I rolled my eyes at the thought,''I know. I'm happy that they broke up because now I get to see less of him. The times that I do get see him, he's rubbing up on me trying to get me to sleep with him.''
"How long were Mimi and Tahno together exactly?'' Korra asked.
I puffed out my cheeks as I thought back to the time when they were together,''About a month?'' I think?
"Why didn't the two stay together? They are perfect for each other.''
"Tahno can't keep "it" in his pants long enough to save his life and Mimi is too much of a slut to be held down by one guy. I guess you can say that it didn't work out because both are whores.'' I shrugged.
Korra laughed,''I bet the sex was great between the two.'' Just like the seriousness of the conversation was lost.
I chuckled,'' I don't even want to think of that. That's just nasty.'' I laughed.
Flopped down on me and stretched herself out on my lap,'' Come on think about. Mimi screaming out Tahno's name. "OH TAHNO! OH TAHNO!'' and Tahno screaming out Mimi's name.'' she teased.
I tried to squirm out from underneath her but she wrapped her arms my neck to keep me pulled down,''No!'' I screamed trying to shake the thought from my head,''Those were dark days! They had sex everyday in her room and she wasn't what you would call quiet. So I would like it if you would stop bringing up the horrifying days. If you please Korra.''
" I wonder how pissed off that mad your mom.'' she laughed.
The smile left my lips. My mom. It's been a year, going on two since she passed away. We had only lived in Japan for about four months before she passed. I never went back home because I had nothing to go back to. No aunts, uncles, grandparents and my father? He's a mystery. He bailed out when I was a year old and no one knew where he went. It was just me and my mother for all of my life and when she passed away I stayed in Japan, with my stepfather and his daughter. They are the closest thing to family that I have, as sad as that might sound I was happy to stay in Japan with this new family because I had good friends here.
How did I come to Japan in the first place? Back in America my mother was a waitress at a small town restaurant and she had a friend whose brother was in town to visit for a couple of weeks and she had set my mother up on a date with him. They hit it off and they hit it off quickly.
After two weeks, two weeks the two had plans to get married and were deeply in love. During those short two weeks I had the pleasure of meeting Yoshito's daughter, Mimi and from that day on we have never gotten along. During that time I had no plans on saying anything to my mother because she deserved to be happy, she was always taking care of me growing up and she needed that company that wasn't me. So I stayed to myself, besides I had liked Yoshito, it was his daughter that I had a problem with, not him
When they had actually announced that they were getting married, I remember asking,''Why the rush.''
The two looked at each other like love sick high schoolers and mother said,''We're in love.'' I had shrugged and brushed it off thinking that they were just being irrational and weren't going to actually going to go through with it. However the next day when I woke to go to school, I was greeted by the sight of my bags packed and my mother waiting by the door with plane tickets in her hand and Yoshito and Mimi at her side.
A couple of weeks upon arrival to Japan, the two were married and we were "a family". Our new family would only be torn apart months later. I think Yoshito had really loved my mother. Knowing that I had no where to go and out of the love for my mother, he allowed me to stay in Japan with him and his daughter. Even since my mother's death he has still treated me like I was his own daughter. But the absence of my mother is still felt . Yoshito doesn't smile as much as he did before the funeral and even though I feel the emptiness that only she can fill, and even though I'm still hurting, I'm doing okay. I will be okay. You gotta stop mourning sometime and move on with life.
I smiled sadly at Korra. She looked back at me with wide eyes, waiting and wondering if I was going to be okay. Right after my mother's passing, any little thing that reminded me of her, had me breaking down and in tears. It feels like forever ago that my mother passed but I still feel the pain in my chest and the sadness because in all actually it's only been a year but the tears no longer come.
"I'm so sorry.'' Korra said, her face showing that she was shocked but with a sad look in her eyes.
I continued to smile,''It's okay. I'm okay.'' and I really felt like I was going to be okay.
A/N: Tell me what you all think. I hope you all liked it and just let me know if any of you are confused, let me know what you all liked and what you all didn't like. What should I change, what could make this story better. Just let me know and I will try to please you all to the best of my ability. Just be nice. Oh! On Saturday be ready to expect some sexy things ;).
