There was a strained silence that filled the room, the only thing breaking it up was Yang slamming fists full of cereal into her eggs. I finally looked up at Tai to see a confused look on his face.
"What the hell does that mean?"
"Look, I saw her leave last night with a bag over her shoulder and not a single glance back. If she comes home anytime soon I'll be thoroughly surprised." I took a swig of my coffee, trying to prepare myself for where this conversation was going.
"Then where did she go? Why did she go?"
"I don't know," I answered, my eyes back on my cup.
"Bullshit," Tai exclaimed. Summer tried to scold him but he just continued as if she didn't say anything. "You know exactly where she is! You always do. Where the hell is she?!"
"You're over-exaggerating my abilities Tai. I don't know everything that happens in Remnant, and I certainly don't know everything that goes on in my little sister's head."
"You knew she was going to leave," Tai accused. "That's why you were outside last night and why you weren't surprised she was gone this morning. So don't you dare tell me you don't know where she is."
"Look Tai, I don't know where she is because I'm no longer privy to that information. So why don't you just back the hell off."
I set my cup down only for it to catch the end of the fork and launch it into the wall near Tai's head. I took a breath in the silence that followed.
"I think I'm going to eat outside." I got up from my chair, picking up my plate in my free hand as I did.
"I think that best," Tai replied flatly as I passed.
