I wanted to fight with her when she left. She tried to make it out like something unimportant, like love was something temporary, something that worked until something better came along.
"That isn't how things work!" I wanted to yell. "You can't just leave me! I love you--doesn't that mean anything? How can you give in so easily?"
But I didn't fight with her then, and I wouldn't fight with her now, despite the fact that she had kept my sister much too long, and probably filled her head with some of her mystic nonsense. I hated it when she was being obscure, especially because she was always right in her obscurity.
When I saw her and my sister had no excuse, I knew that something had gone on. I hadn't quite caught on yet to what it was, but that stupid boy was involved, and so was that plush toy. I was going to figure it out.
The fact that she was back threw me for a loop. I won't deny that. But I think I reacted properly. It probably wasn't a good idea to go back there after I took Sakura home, but I had to.
Yukito or not, years gone by or not, I still wanted to know why she'd gone. Of course, she wouldn't tell me. I wondered where the new person that she loved was, and if he looked like me or acted like me. Jealousy, yes, but I couldn't help it.
Her words became fewer and the silences thicker, and finally I decided it was time to go. When I turned, she smiled at me, that smile that had always taken my breath away.
Strange that I didn't feel that way anymore. Yuki's smile was so much more intriguing.
"You caused me so much heartache. I couldn't eat or sleep because of you. At those moments I hated you. And yet I don't regret a single moment I spent with you," I wanted to say. I wanted to say it as much as I thought I had wanted to yell at her when she left, but I didn't say it for the same reason I hadn't screamed at her.
She knew, damn it, she already knew.
