Time to Fess Up

-Kana-

This had to stop. Leo wasn't going to do it. I had to step in and stop this. Kagome and I sat in the living room. She stared at me. Leo's mad at me. Leo's mad at me.

“What's going on?” Kagome asked. “What is the problem?” I thought about what I wanted to say. Leo was about to speak when I stopped him.

Stop. This has gone on long enough! He still tried to talk. Kagome waited the whole time. I took a breath.

“Leo has so much going on,” I began with.

“Okay…” Kagome said. I pressed my lips together. She has to know. Someone has to know. I lifted my chin.

“His family…” I said.

Shut up.

No!

“Kana?” Kagome asked. I gritted my teeth and lifted my head.

“His father is back,” I said.

“What?” she asked. Leo gritted his teeth. I dropped my head.

“How much time do you have?” I asked.

“I'm willing to listen,” Kagome said. I lifted my head and sighed. Okay. Here goes. I just let it unload. I couldn't stop. Leo couldn't stop me either. Oh he tried. But I kept him quiet. I dropped my shoulders, panting. I looked up at Kagome. She sat silent. Come on. Say something!

“Wow,” was all she said. I saw Leo glaring at me.

Why did you tell her all of that?

I started to answer but I closed my mouth. I frowned. I didn't know. I didn't know why I did that. I guess…

“Are you okay?”

I lifted my head. Kagome stared at us. Might as well tell the truth.

“No,” I confessed. “We are not okay.” Leo sat back in my head. Kagome stared at us. I could tell what she was thinking. I sighed.

“Look,” I said. “I thought I knew why I was telling you this, but now I don't.” I rubbed my forehead.

“So what do you want?” Kagome asked. I put up my hands in a shrug. Leo snorted and folded his arms across his chest.

Nice one. It wasn't her business. What did you think was going to happen? I closed my eyes. He might be right. But still, I had to say something.

I opened my eyes.

“What I want to say is please help me,” I said in a trembling voice.

Save Me
