For those who don't know this story, Houkou cut his eye and had to fight his evil self, then we (Houkou and Nekomata) fell in love...When I took him back to his place, he found a young girl named Hikari. He rushed over to my place, right after my brother, Francis and I found out that he (Francis) was going to stay here. (he's been gone with my father for over 11 years) So, I now have agreed with Houkou that I will help him take care of Hikari. Confusing...Right?
I took my time walking down the steps. Houkou and Hikari were waiting for me. I had a feeling about what was going to happen next, but I wasn't sure if I truly wanted to. Living with Houkou wouldn't be that bad...would it? But, Francis just started to...I don't know...Notice me? No...That's not it.
When I finished the flight of stairs, I saw Hikari sitting on Houkou lap, playing with his hair. Jealously struck through me, but I let it go, remembering that Hikari was only 12.
"Hey." I greeted.
They looked up at me. "Hey." he replied.
"So...How is this going to work out?" I asked.
He shrugged. "I don't know...You could maybe swing by everyday...."
"Can she stay with us?" Hikari asked, with puppy dog eyes.
"I don't see why not....Neka?"
"Um...I guess I could." I looked nervously up stairs. "As long as I can come back here any time..."
Their eyes brighten.
"Great!" Houkou grinned. "You go back upstairs and pack up! We'll be waiting!"
