"Well let's ask her." Jr. said bluntly. He walked over to Alka. "How are you feeling, Alka?"

Huh? Oh... um.... I... Alka jerks a bit, startled out of her melencholy thoughts. She puts on a fake smile, and doesn't meet her brother's eyes. I, I guess I'm okay. Please don't worry about me. Although, I do ahave a craving for something sweet... She tries to divert the conversation away from her well-being.

"Hey Gaignun. How about we take Alka to the Foundation?" Jr. asked happily, "The bakery has some really good food. I'm sure you'll like it, Alka."

Alka smiles again, but her eyes still look flat and sad. Thanks Jr. You don't mind taking me around the Foundation?
Gaignun smiles as well. "Sounds like a good plan. I did promise to take the two of you to the beach, so will have to get Alka a bathing suit so she can go swimming if she wants."

"Ok then. Let's go." Jr. said. Soon the three siblings were at the Foundation's enterance. People were walking around the entryway and just about every one of them stopped to say hi to the Master and Little Master.

Alka held on tightly to both of her bothers' hands, extremely frightened of the large crowd. She had never seen THIS many people, and it scared her. Not only was she terrified of the people, she also felt nearly invisible next to her important siblings. Hardly anyone took notice of her when they stopped to greet the directors, save for a token polite greeting toi the 'Little Lady'.

"Sorry Alka. I should have warned you about this beforehand." Jr. apologized. They went into the bakery. "Hello everyone. Can we get something to eat?" Jr. asked the lady working at the register (I forgot her name). "Sure thing, Little Master." the lady responded, "What do you want to order?"

Alka bites her lower lip gently, an old habit that betrays how sad and frightened she really is feeling, despite her efforts to appear happy and carefree. I... Uh... S-something sweet? Um, sweet bread? Is there sweet bread? She forces a smile. I'd like sweetbread. She pauses, and the smile fades. She had forgotten that the lady behind the counter couldn't hear her.

Yakura lies down on the bed.
"I want...someone to always be by my side..."
she thinks back to when Gaignun said he caared for her.
(...I bet...he was lying..)
she covers her face with a pillow.
(I'm a hideous beast...why would anyone care about me?)
she rolls over.
(I've been lied to all my life.
What makes me think people arent still lying.)
she makes an angry face.
(Why? why do i want to kill so badly?)
she closes her eys and she see's Alka in her mind.
(Is that...who I want to kill?)
another voice enters her mind.
(YeS...mAkE hEr DiSaPpEaR....sLiT hEr ThRoAt...)
she began to laugh.
(BaThE iN hEr BlOoD...)
She thought of a sad Gaignun and Jr.

"I think she wants some sweet bread." Jr. told the lady, "Gaignun, will you wait for the bread? I'll take Alka to get her a swimsuit."

Yakura exits her room.
She comes across mOMO
MOMO stops and blushes as Yakura approaches her.
Yakura lays both hands on MOMO's shoulders.
"MOMO...Have you seen Alka?"
MOMO stays silent, her face becoming more flushed.
MOMO:"Um...I...Well...Gaignuna nd Jr...took her down..to the beach."
Yakuras face distorts in sadness.
She hangs her head down.
MOMO:"Is something wrong?"
Yakura kneels on the ground and wraps her arms around MOMO's torso.
"MOMO...will you...stay with me for a little while?"

Gaignun smiles. "Sure thing, you two go hand have some fun okay?" Alka smiles faintly and waves bye to Gaignun. "Who's the little missy, Master Gaignun?" the lady asked. "Oh, she's Jr.'s adopted sister, Alka. She's autistic and can't speak." Gaignun fibs. "Oh, the poor girl! She's such a pretty thing too. Such lovely hair. No wonder she seemed so sad, I could see it in her eyes." Gaignun looks back to where Alka and Jr. had left the bakery, worried. Alka had said she was fine.
Alka holds onto her brother's hand, her head low so she doesn't have to look anyone in the eyes.

On the way out the door, Jr. looked back at Gaignun. Hey, did you invite Yakura to come with us? I know that she would like to spend some 'quality time' with you. he communicated to Gaignun, Alka and I will be fine by ourselves. He left the bakery holding Alka's hand. "Hmm... there's a place up the stairs from here that will have a swimsuit." He took Alka to the laundry place that's up the stairs from that garage area.

Gaignun metally sighed, the sigh echoing over the link. Yes, Yakura was attractive and a rare find, and he did have feelings for her, but did his brother really have to keep it up with the innuendos? Well, I did promise Alka that'd we'd spend the day together.... But I don't think Alka would mind if Yakura were with us. After the sweet bread's done I'll go get her. And I know you're trying to get me to go out with her, but you can stop it with the hints. Gaignun wasn't really upset, just annoyed that his brother knew him too well.
