<span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"><i>Yumi Sugimoto &lt;3</i></span></div>

</div></div><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">The blazing heat of the summer season was enough to start distorting the outside air-- wavy distortions serving as a testament as to how someone could grill their own hand if they happened to fall on the asphalt. It was a fiery day... in more than just the temperature. The admittedly gorgeous young woman worriedly waited outside the door of her apartment in the heat, looking frantically at the passing cars... wiping the sweat off her forehead from time to time. Her father always told her that failed marriages were like shattered glass... it isn't the shattering that prevents the pieces from getting back together, it's the piece that went missing after the glass was broken. In hindsight, he was clearly foreshadowing how the woman's parents would... very soon after she finished college... end up leaving each other permanently, her mother settling for another father.<br/>
<br/>
Everything was suppose to be fine after that, she was almost done raising her two daughters to adulthood yet... that one hiccup occurred right before her younger sister could finish her college degree, become financially stable, and finally move out. Chased out by her own stepfather and mother... Keiko couldn't think at all of the inconvenience put upon her by taking her little sister in... she could only think of how awful it'd feel for something like that to happen to her precious baby sister. Finally... that familiar car drove in through the road, Keiko instantly moving up to the edge of the sidewalk before giving a quick wave.<br/>
<br/>
Even through the disgustingly warm heat... she could see that arguing was going on through the car as the passenger seat was abruptly opened by her mother whom came out of the driver's seat before yelling some things to the person whom was in the back seat... her younger sister. The yelling from her mother lasted about three minutes before she finally left after her passenger had left the car... leaving the girl all alone on the sidewalk, abandoned by her family.<br/>
<br/>
...Or at least, most of her family. There was one person whom would never let that beloved bundle go, no matter how hard it became living with her. "Circe! Over here!" The loud voice of her sister broke through most of the sounds as it called the younger sister over, Keiko feeling like she was just about ready to pass out whether it be from he heat or from the anxiety.<br/>
