      My name is, "Kimura Kasumi". I enjoy making origami crafts in my small home. My older brother, Kyo insists that it's only a waste of time. He's always been one of those nature freaks that can't stand the destruction of trees and such for things like...'paper'. Even so, he always goes and buys me the paper I need or anything else. I wish I could go with him so he isn't alone all the time, but someone needs to watch the house. I heard on the news this morning that there's been an increase in crime rate. Kidnapping and Pedophilia in particular. Even though he's older than me, I still have his back...-and he has mine. I've always felt that he's been too hard on himself. Possibly it's because he's my older brother. Ever since mom left, I think he felt the need to be there for me more. He felt so pressured. Then again, I don't remember our mother much since I was so young at the time. I would ask him about it, but he'd always get this look on his face of pure disgust. I'd rather see his smiling face than one of loathing. Thankfully we still have our father living with us. He's extremely kind, but also strict. 


"He's been that way ever since she left." Kyo would say. 


         If I knew more about our family's past maybe I could understand how he feels. Until then, I'll make-do with what I have. Kyo rarely talks about it, and Dad is usually at work all day. Sometimes he'll give me small hints, but when I question him about it, he gives me this blank stare. I wish I knew how his mind works.
