Chapter 26
**
It's been days since after the day I in-deliberately kissed Max. And I'm unsafe to say, I had constantly thought about that one time, which is unlike me. I'd never have images of me kissing Max again for the second time. I mean, most times when I'm alone or see Max coming from afar I always have the kissing scene playing in my head over and over again that I want to do it again, maybe this time even longer and not drunk. I see myself kissing Max. Wanting to kiss him. Begging to kiss him. Straddling him again. Like I'm a what? Slut? No. That's not the type of Kira anybody knows. The Kira people see me as would never think of kissing her cousin brother. But that one kiss, seems to have unlocked something in me that I can't help but wish Max really wasn't my cousin.
I sound paranoid, I know. But what risk does it take? A lot. Which include me be
Funny, how I can't even believe that.
However, I'm glad Max hadn't said anything about that day to me or anyone else. It was as if we never kissed at all. Well, that's to him. Whereas, I keep thinking about it.
Not that the kiss meant anything to him. Afterall I was drunk, and he's got better kisses from better hot girls.
"So.. about that day, we are really sorry for what happened." The twin apologized, again, for the third time in a day. I guess it really bothered them to have seen me angry that day in their room when one of the twins cut themselves. And honestly, I regret snarling at them. I was quite upset that day.
"It's okay. It's in the past." I told them, again, for the third time, as I set the dining table for them to have their meal. It was lunch time and neither mum nor dad were home. They are off for work, as usual. And it's just me and the kids at home.
Addison with her bouncing hair, walks into the dinning and slides into one of the dining chairs. "Honestly, that day came with a record. I mean, I've never seen you that pissed before. You're neither smiling or frowning. But seeing you clench your jaw only made me awestruck. Like hell, it suits you more, cousin. So, I think you should get mad more often." She beams, making Riele hit her on her elbow. "What? It's the truth. She did look so hot at that moment, and not so friendly-friendly." She said, putting up a terrible face demonstration along the last part of her sentence. who ended up shaking her head at silliness.
I roll my eyes at the bitchy queen. So full of drama.
"Did I hear someone say hot? Who's hot? ‘cause I don't see anyone qualified to be." Jack's voice came from nowhere. Eyes searching round the small room. He then poses on the entranceway of the room with his teeth white as if taking a picture. And behind him was my brother.
"Kira. When she's angry." Answered Addison.
Jack instantly grimaced at me. He must have definitely found that disapproving to the ears as he dislikes me to the gut.
I don't even know why he doesn't like me.
"First of all, you can't use the word hot for Kira. Second of all, Kira doesn't look a bit hot whenever she's mad. So nah, I disagree.” He walked further into the room.” See," he picked a rubber plate from the table and dropped it on the floor, intentionally, to get a reaction from me. But I don't give him. Instead I stared at him, not looking away. When he realized how serious I was staring at him, he said, "Okay, I'll pick that up." He bent to pick up the plate and kept it back where it should be. "Maybe she could be scary sometimes, I'll believe that." He added, as he walked to sit on the chair next to Ricky. I didn't mind them as I shook my head and went back to the kitchen to keep the extra plates.
When I finished serving the food, we ate. Whilst, the kids talk among themselves and I only get to join in their conversation when necessary. However, I'm glad to say they're enjoying the food, except for Jack who keeps complaining about me not adding enough salt to the food, asking if I used the right amount of ingredients because it tastes too blunt. He kept complaining over and over again just to piss me off, and then when I threatened to take the food from him if he didn't stop talking, he gripped the plate and said "no thank you. I'll manage" with a tight smile that makes me and my other siblings roll our eyes at him. Ricky even asked him to give him his food if he doesn't want them, but he nearly choked Ricky with his glare. Which means he was enjoying the food too.
