Miketuskami's P.O.V.

         That kiss was absolutely everything I imagined it to be. Don't get me wrong...our first kiss and our second kiss was nice, but she didn't hesitate this time to give me one. I loved her so much. I was currently walking around my suite, trying to think of something to do since Miss Ririchiyo is at school. I am so proud of her for continuing schooling and finding time within her busy schedule to spend time with me. My phone vibrated in my pocket and I pulled it out quickly. Flipping it open, I noticed that it was a message from Miss Ririchiyo saying:

Miketsukami,

      I am sending you this little message to let you know that I will not be at the Ayakashikan for a few hours. My parents are wanting me to come home to spend some time with my sister. I promise to message you as much as I can. 

Love,

Ririchiyo. <3

      My heart thudded slowly and I could feel my body slowing down to turtle speed. Time without my beautiful Ririchiyo. What am I going to do? I started to think about different activities that I could do, but none came to mind. Maybe if I spoke to Watanuki or Kagerou, they may have some intersting ideas to spend the next couple of days. I sent a quick message to Ririchiyo saying:

My beautiful Ririchiyo,

I hope you stay safe while you are away from me. If you need me, I'll be there in a heartbeat. I love you. 

Miketsukami

Ririchiyo's P.O.V.

        I finally made it to my house and as I walked up the front steps, I noticed that it had not changed since I left. The front still has the single cherry blossom tree and a small fountain in the corner. When I was younger, I used to think our house was amazing and beautiful, but now it just looks like a stranger's house, that's how long I have been gone. I was greeted by one of the maids that worked around my parents' house. I think I still remember her name...Mae. She bowed her head and spoke softly, "Welcome, Miss Shirakiin. Your parents and sister are waiting in the dining room for you. I'll take your coat and purse, if you would like." I just gripped my purse tighter to my side and politely said, "No, thank you. I'll head into there now. Thank you, Mae." I noticed her head snap up and saw a small tint of a blush against her cheeks. She excused herself and walked around the back of the house. 

    I continued to stare at the front door and knew once I opened it, that only a turn of my body I would be face-to-face with my family once again. The people I so desperately tired to get away from. That is why I moved to the Ayakashikan, to get away from my family who tormented me with harsh words and rules. Now, I was to face them once again and hopefully for the last time. I took a deep breath and opened the door. The inside main room was dark and gloomy, it also still smelled the same. Fresh and clean from where the maids clean it five times a day from floor to ceiling. "We are in here, my daughter." My father's deep stern voice came from my right and I tensed up. It has been a long time since my father and mother have seen me last. Would they disapprove of how I managed on my own? Would they discipline me? 

    Moving to the right, the dining room came into view and so did my family. My mother sat on the left, my sister who begs for attention from our parents, and my father on the right with his hands folded tightly together. I bowed out of respect and took the empty seat across from them. My mother gave me a weak smile and tried to reach for my hand. I kept it in my lap and looked at my sister. She has grown up a little bit at age nine now. She is looking more like mother everyday. It turns out she is the normal one of our family and doesn't have any special "monster". Once my father found out that she was actually normal, he showed her way more attention and always took his anger out on me. When I was little up to the point where I moved at, my father always hit and told me how much of a failure I was. I'm pretty sure that is why I used to be rude and anti-social...all thanks to my father.

   I kept my eyes focused on the table as my father spoke, "Ririchiyo...it is about time you arrived and faced us. You have made your mother very worried about you, I hope you realize that. You could have at least called us or wrote a letter. Why have you not done that, Ririchiyo? Tell us...NOW!" He slammed his fists down on the table and it caused me to jump and look up. I stuttered, "I-I've been busy with school and my life at the Ayakashikan." My hands started to clench into a fist as I prepared myself for more of his harsh words. Instead my mother spoke up, "That is fine, dear. You just worried me is all. I wanted to make sure you were okay." She reached over and found one of my hands to grip it into hers. She continued, "I understand that you are getting older and want to live by yourself, but Riri...you are my daughter. I love you so much and you being away without letting me hear your voice is painful for a mother. I know you don't understand this yet because you are only a young woman, but soon when you have children you'll understand. Your father and I were discussing you coming back home to stay."

    They wanted me to come back to this place? Back to the torture and abuse? Yeah...that's not happening. I shook my head and looked up at my mother, "I apologize, Mom, but I cannot come back. There are too many...bad memories here. I promise to write to you, but I cannot stay here. I refuse. If that is all you wanted to say, then I'll be leaving." I stood up, but so did my father with an angry look, "You will be staying here for a few days whether you like it or not. You are still my daughter and I have say in what you do." He stormed out of the room, leaving my sister, mother and I in silence. My sister finally spoke up and smirked, "I guess we should get to know each other then...to please father." I just glared at her and lifted an eyebrow, "I guess so, but I'm not doing it for him. I'm doing it because I have no other choice." As I sat back down, all I could think about was: I'm sorry Miketsukami, but it's going to be a little longer than a few hours. Days of my family...great.
