Kei pov
When my mother calls up down for dinner, I poke Emai in the cheek, waking her up.
"What's happining?" She yawns, sitting up.
"Dinner is ready" I grunt. She stands up. Tobio and I follow her downstairs, sitting at the dinning room table. Emai digs into her spaghetti right away, obviously hungry. Before I can finish my own plate, she is already on her second plate. She quickly asks my mother for a third helping, and my mom happily obliges.
"How can you eat that much?" Akiteru asks, astonished.
"Being a pro figure skater is hard work, ya?" She says as she shoves more in her mouth.
"I thought you guys were supposed to watch your weight." Tobio joins in. Emai shakes her head.
"I have a high cholesterol thingy, and it help to exercise immediately after meals. So kei, you know what that means!" She giggles while I roll my eyes. A look of horror crosses akiteru's and tobio's face. My mother just laughs and swats akiteru on the back of his head.
"If they meant sex, do you really think they would be talking about it at the kitchen table, and in front of me? Not that I would care." She says, eating her own food.
"Yeah, yeah I'll come with you to the skating rink." I sigh, swallowing the last bite of food on my plate. Emai claps.
"Yay!" She says as she takes care of her plate. I rinse off my plate and grab my keys.
"Kei wait, maybe the rest of them want to come?" Emai says, obviously putting on a face of courage.
"If you don't want to have them watch, then don't tell them they can go. It's simple. They shouldn't feel hurt." I grunt, pulling on my shoes. She pulls on hers, and grabs my hand. She pulls me out the door and sighs. We walk through town, talking on the way there.
"Why do you and tobio seem to have some sort of relationship gap? If you don't mind me asking." I ask, my curiosity getting the better of me.
"Because I moved out of our mothers house and he chose not to come with me. Our mother favored him and not me, and I couldn't take it anymore, so I left. Now all we can do is try to rebuild our relationship. He seems to have quite a bit of respect for me as his sister, so I'm thankful for that." She tells me. I pause, thinking.
"Yeah, I sort of understand." I reply.
"Are you going to make me skate with you again?" I blurt hopefully. She giggles, making me sigh.
"Alright then. Just don't push me again. I don't have as much balance or........gusto, as you do." I groan. She smiles, and grabs my hand again.
"Thanks for coming with. I need to practice, but going alone gives me anxiety." She says. I smile. I can hear the familiar sound of my mother, my brother, and tobio behind us. I inwardly groan, but stay quiet, not wanting Emai to have a panic attack.
"Of course. I'm always happy to come with." I continue the conversation. We soon reach the door to the skating rink, and I pause at the door.
"Hey, I'm going to get some bottles of water for later. Go ahead and get your skates on, I'll be right there." I say, and she nods. After she disappears, I lean against the wall of the building. My mother drags the two boys out from behind the building.
"I'm sorry kei, I tried to stop them but they followed you here." She apologizes.
"I can't stop you guys from watching, but I will torture both of you if she finds out you are here. She doesn't want anyone else here for a reason." I snap, glaring at akiteru and tobio. Tobio glares back at me.
"Can we at least know the reason?" He huffs. My mother scowls.
"It's obvious the girl have some trust issues, and even more obvious that lei has earned enough trust that she allows him to be around her while she does something that is very personal. If you guys want to earn her trust I suggest that we go back home and wait for them to get back." My mother explains in a searing tone. The two boys look at me, defeated, and sulk back in the direction of the house. My mother hands me two water bottles and a lunchbox.
"Thank you mom." I say softly, hugging her, then heading inside. I grab my own pair of skates from Emai, who is waiting by our bench. I quickly lace them up, and we set off toward the rink. I barely manage to keep my balance, while I watch Emai push off. She spins and leaps, gliding across the ice, as if with invisible wings. I grab the boombox from the building manager, and pop in her favorite classical music. She starts to do her skating routine, and towards the end, she wipes out. She sighs, and gets back up. I replay the disc about 30 seconds back, and she starts where she left off, this time getting the move right. I restart the song 5 more times, and she does it correctly 4 more times. After 3 hours of this, we return our skates and head home. When we get inside, she collapses on the floor exausted. My mom, tobio, and akiteru watch us from the couch. I collapse on top of her, making her giggle in hysterics at the extra weight. My shirt slides up slightly, revealing my belly button.
"Kei, your too heavy!" She busts out laughing.
"Sorry, can't get up, gravity too much!" I feign the struggle to get back up. She shoves her pointer finger in her mouth and then quickly poke it into my bellybutton. I gasp and grab my stomach, shooting straight up. I look at her in horror. She laughs at my expression and then she starts laughing, letting out cute snort-like giggles. I then grimace. My mom tries to hold back her laughter but it doesn't work. I laugh along with her, and wait for her to calm down. Tobio looks at me with a weird expression, so I stand up and stretch.
"Hey ma, can I have some ice cream?" I ask.
"Yeah. Get me a bowl too, will ya?" I walk into the kitchen and grab two bowls. I fill both of them up, and then grab two spoons after I put the ice cream away, and walk back to the livingroom with two bowls in one hand, and two sodas in another. Tobio stares at me.
"How are you doing that?" He asks, bewildered.
"Doing what?" I ask as my mother takes her bowl.
"Holding two bowls in one fucking hand. What normal person can do that?" He snaps. I smirk, a sarcastic smile plastered on my face.
"Having big hands is pretty cool, you know? I can hold more things in them. Do more things too." I grin. I sit down next to Emai and i start eating my ice cream. She grabs my spoon and steals a bite. I open my can of sprite soda, and pour it on the cookies and cream. Everyone except my mom has an expression of discust. She does the same. We high five. Laughing, I shovel the fizzy deliciousness into my mouth. Emai peers into the bowl suspiciously. I hand her the spoon.
"Try it." I tell her. She scoops up a small bite, and tastes it.
"Whoa, that's good!" She gasps, stealing the bowl from me. She gobbles it all up, and hands me back the empty bowl.
"Fetch me some of my own, slave." She says in a sassy tone. I laugh, and go to get more. I glance back into the living room and notice akiteru and tobio's curious look. I grab three more bowls and fill them all. I grab more sodas and carry them all to the livingroom. I have a soda and a bowl to each boy.
"I'm not sharing with either of you, so if you want to know what it tastes like, then try it for yourself." I sit back down next to Emai and hand her a bowl, and start on my own.
