I finally updated! :) thanks for reading and waiting.


All is well and happy as they ate breakfast together-with the occasional teasing of the little ones.

" Kiyomi likes to smell her own farts -"

"No! Nii chan stop it!"

"She also likes to scratch her butt a lot and-"

"Well-well- nii chan likes to- likes to-"

"Ichi nii likes to talk to himself in the mirror"

"Shut Karin!"

"He also likes to act out random Shakespearean scene by himself!"

"Karin if you don't stop now- you won't have a ichi nii."

Karin just grin at her older brother because it's and empty threat. He will never leave her or Yuzu- yet he left Rukia...

"Okay!" Rukia cuffs as she looks around the table. "Since I made breakfast- you little ladies get the honor of taking the dishes in and washing them!"

The girls moan and groan how unfair it was as Ichgo has Karin his place and whispered, "Thank you"

Karin rolls her eyes and snatches the plate away- leaving Rukia and Ichigo alone.

Who speaks first?

"Rukia," Ichigo started, "how's things doing?"

How's thing doing?

"Everything fine thank you very-"

"I loved her before I met you- " Ichigo blurted, "She was my aunt and was in love with her. I was in high school at the time."

I wasn't your number 1?

"Everything about her I loved-"

I'm not suited for you?

"I would go over to her place and visit her often."

Like you used to do with me...

"But there was this moment- it was a one time thing-" Ichigo gulp hard, "We made love-just once, and after that I hardly seen my aunt..."

You never gotten over her...

"When we first met I thought I was moving on- but the there was a car accident with my parents and aunt."

Don't tell me-

"When I arrived back home for the funeral- Karin and Yuzu were crying in the door way- trying to be strong."

You never loved me...

"I had no other choice but to comfort them- I learned to think of them as my twins with my aunt "

I was a burden?

"They needed me more than you needed me-I couldnt allow you to sacrifice yourself- I knew you had goals left in America..."

Why a post card?

"That's why I sent a postcard- I didn't want you to follow me."

A letter would have sufficed.

Rukia held in the tears as Ichigo candidly spoke about Karin, Yuzu, and his past. She still doesnt forgive Ichigo for being so tactless- a post instead of a letter explainging what happened.

"Was I just a distraction- "

"No! You weren't!" Ichigo ran his fingers through his hair-nearly ripping it off. He doesn't know what to do

"If given a second chance- would you repeat your actions?"Rukia tearfully yet breathless asked- it's too much

He doesn't know what to do.

"It wouldn't matter- Ichigo confesses, "I already taken Yuzu and Karin in as my sisters- nothing would have-"

"Would you have sent a letter instead of a postcard? Now that you seen the out cone of this?'

Ichigo huff. "No. I didnt want you to sacrifice your education for me "

'You keep saying that- is it because I can't replace her?" She look down down-refusing to look him in the eyes- what's should she even say? "I'm perfectly fine with this-no problem?"

She' a quiety crying- practically opening up healed wounds, she sat there- alone like before- the feeling of abandonment slowly resurfaced as as started to sniffle- she stops by shaking her head and quickly drying her cheeks and eyes. She beams up smiling- red nose and eyes- she smiles at him as if nothing happened-after all, she is a nurse.

"Nooo... It's not that ... " Ichigo ran his finger throuh his hair-nearly ripping it off.

"There my little sisters I care about-"

"You didn't care about me?"

" I did care about you"

"Enough for a postcard.."

"I didn't want you to sacrifice yourself for me."

"You could have called-"

I was a coward- I didn't want to know how I broke a girl's heart, I. "

"You didn't know what I wanted." Rukia grabbed the nearest tissues and pats her eyes dry- she breathed heavily and speaks, "I would have understood more and have closure-or even resolution. And-

"I didn't want you to know where I lived."

"How have you been with her?'

"Been with who?"

"Your ex girlfriend ."

'Umnnmmmmm... Aboouuuttttttt... 6 years-"

"It didn't take you long to find a girlfriend..."

"She was just here- it was convient-"

"Nnnnnniiiiiiiiiiiiiii cccchhhhhhhhhaaaaaaasnnnnn!" Kiyomi happly cheers as she comes bumbling from the kitchen. Kiyomi has just finished washing dishes with Karin, and Yuzu. "Can we go to the park?"

Rukia looks at a doe eye kiyomi whose eyes we glittering with hope. Rukia laughs.

"Okay. Go get ready."

And off kiyomi went as Karin and Yuzu ask Ichigo who tells them yes." Kiyomi likes to smell her own farts -"

"No! Nii chan stop it!"

"She also likes to scratch her butt a lot and-"

"Well-well- nii chan likes to- likes to-"

"Ichi nii likes to talk to himself in the mirror"
