I felt my expression twist as the two displayed affection. It was kind of gross. Don't get me wrong, usually it wouldn't bother me. But this is different. Seeing my sister appear so fucking cute and gushy with a cutie of her own was disorienting. I crinkled my nose, careful not allow either of them to spot it, however. I put on a stoic look when, suddenly, all eyes were on me.
"Right. Uh, Isabella, this is Kohaku. Ko, Isabella. Um..."
Right. I kinda got that.
When Kaoru's eyes lingered on Isabella's, I realized the introduction was more for her sake. I followed my sister's gaze to her lady pal, studying her face as my identity as a Takeuchi was unveiled. I desperately wanted her to like me, yet at the same time, I would accept it if she hated me. I must have wronged her in some way, by wronging Kaoru, right? But, then again, I really never harmed my sister. But, it's the principle, I suppose. I anticipate the worst.
"And, uh, Ko, well... you already know a little about Isabella."
It took me a moment to register that, now, she was addressing me. I tugged my gaze away from Isabella, closing my agape mouth, to return sisterly glances.
I nodded once, a noise of disapproval striking my throat and exiting my nose. I was nervous, again. God, I hated being just so anxious, all the time. If I'm not anxious, I'm angry. If not angry then sad.
Usually angry. But, today, I couldn't possibly conjure up rage. Not with my sister a few feet away from me. Literal feet, too. Like, I could just step forward and meet her.
Oh, yeah. I should say something. Mmm...what to say?"Hi. Sorry about anything I do or say in the future."
Yes, that seemed acceptable. I was polite and apologetic! I never apologize for the wrongs I do, so I hope this makes up for something.
