I lay face up on the sand looking up at the stars, it's quiet tonight.

Which leaves me alone with my thoughts, something I'm not used to dealing with on a regular basis.

What did she mean by that today? What did she mean by she wouldn't be able to concentrate if she was looking at me? Is it a good or a bad thing?

Whatever it is I need to shut it down, lo'ak is perfect for me but I don't feel anything towards him? Is this normal? Am I normal?

"You ok, sis?" I jump slightly at the voice, turning my face to the right to see my sister kora.

"Uh yeah?" It sounds more like question when I say it, she raises an eyebrow and  gestures for me to start talking.

"What if, hypothetically I was feeling something ROMANTICALLY for a girl?" I mumble turning to look at the stars.

"Well hypothetically speaking, I think you should embrace that." Kora says casually, I sit up immediately and look at her with wide eyes.

"You're not mad?" I ask feeling tears spike my
Eyes for no reason.

"You know, I'm pansexual." She smiles slinging a arm around me.

"And they're ok with that?" I nervously ask refusing to meet my sisters gaze.

"They aren't monsters tsireya."  Kora nudges me gently, removing her arm.

"This isn't right I'm meant to be with lo'ak that's what everyone expects!" The tears finally falling from my eyes.

"But is that what you want?" The question seems unreal, because you never hear anyone ask you that.

"I don't know" I bury my head in my hands, why does it have to be so conflicting?!

"You don't have to be with someone just because everyone expects it to happen, if you don't feel anything for the sully boy then you shouldn't be with him."  She puts it plain and simple as if she's had this conversation before.

"But-" "no buts, follow your heart sis" she smiles its gentle not teasing or malicious it's the type of smile that says 'I've got you.'

"No one will care, just be yourself" I sigh, shes right. Why am I making this difficult for myself.

"Get to know her better, talk to kami" she chuckles, my face heats up, of course she knew the whole time!
