Nothing but an awkward silence lingering in the air as a stare-down is happening between my mother and my father I can't tell what's going on any more than anybody else can.
As Icey and I stand behind her in my father's office I can imagine just what she wants to say to him, the situation came as a shock to her as well, more than anyone else.
" I've talked to my sister, We are adopting Ice "
Icey and I cut our eyes at each other while my mother is telling my father what's about to happen, I don't think he has a say anymore.
" We are not Icey's Primary caregivers my sister relinquished her rights to me for Icey"
My father looked unfazed like he knew this was what his wife was going to do " I see, Well it wouldn't make sense to have sisters in different households" my father said accepting the idea not that I thought it would be pushed back.
" Icey will also start back at the academy tomorrow" Everybody in the room looked at my mother " Tomorrow? " I huffed out "Mom look at me I'm not particularly the Kairo everyone knows " She shook her head " The only way to get over it is to rip the band aid o-"
" Catalina think, don't you think we need to handle Icey and Liams problem now before reintroducing the girls too school. I say give them a week i'll inform the teachers of what's happening and we can go from there but sending the girls back to school tomorrow i can't agree too. "
" That's not what i wan-"
My father cuts my mother off by getting out of his seat " Cat you have to understand we - I lied to the pack we need to cross every T and dot every I before they step foot back in that school, they can stay here not at the pack house here "
you can see my mother get frustrated " Mom think, I wouldn't go over well "
My mom scuffed under her breath and turned to open my father's office door my eyes immediately landed on Noah. " Kairo " my eyes immediately snapped back to my father "Get with your brothers and arrange for Liam to come stay here at the house for a couple of days "
I nod my head in compliance with my father
" Wait so Liam will be staying here? " I turn to see Icey's face she doesn't know what to think she hasn't seen Liam in years since she found out they were mated.
I put my hand i put my hand in her shoulder flashing her a smile I turn to see Noah standing in the hall and look back at Icey " It will be worth it when you get it over with I promise now if you excuse me "I wave and exit the room Noah holding his hand out to me as I take it. It should be worth it not sure what I'm feeling but I feel better than I did towards him before.
All I've been hearing is how are you feeling? Are you OK? Is there anything I can do to help? Those are the questions I've been hearing since I've woken up but nobody bothered to ask the real question here.
" Want something to eat? " Noah looked at me he has nothing but concern in his eyes "I haven't seen you eat since you passed out at school" I nodded my head cause I could eat I was hungry he pulled me to the kitchen and guided me to sit at the kitchen island while he looks in cabinets " if you looking for he mugs to make tea long shot but just in case top left " he turns around and shoots me a smile " I take it you would also like tea " I nod my head. He reaches into the top left cabinet and finds all the coffee mugs and tea cups and pulls out a ghost cup.
"Can you also manifest me up a small mirror please?"
I put my hands together like I'm begging but I'm not, He looks at me with those soft brown eyes and suddenly a small mirror appears on the kitchen island in front of me.
I see my now blueish eyes staring at me “You know you still look beautiful to me “My eyes shoot up and land on Noah he seems unfazed with how I look now I quickly look back down at the kitchen island
I grab the mirror and stare in it studying my now unrecognizable face " This must be scary to everybody " the thought that was supposed to only be on my head came out loud o hear Noah chuckle I looked up and he cracked a smile " It was intense only calm one was Santana" I roll my eyes at the name he pisses me off " I take it your, not a fan either huh " how said chuckling again " Speaking of him I haven't seen him in a while " I shrug my shoulders " good maybe it will stay that way" I put the mirror down beside me on the table while Noah put my ghost tea coffee mug in front of me with the little tea bag string hanging out.
“ Aren’t you at least a bit curious about where you come from? “ I shake my head I’m not interested 'cause that’s not who I am I’m Kairo Rose daughter of Klaus Rose and Catalina Rose. Santana is nothing but a thorn in my side now “ Since you’re denying Santana does that mean you’re denying Icey as your sister? “
“ that has nothing to do with how I feel about Santana “
He rolls his eyes “ Kai come on even though your not a fan he is still your blood relative and Icey is your blood relative you need to make it a point to go to kno-“
I bang my hand on the kitchen island cutting Noah off “ Stop …. Please “ I close my eyes trying to settle the anger that bubbling up it's one thing to deal with Santana’s in the picture it’s another thing to accept and right now I refuse to accept him.
An awkward silence fills the kitchen neither of us has anything to say to the other we don’t want to say the wrong things to trigger each other I don’t want to take it out on Noah
“ Are you still hungry ?” He asked I couldn’t say anything all I did was nod my head now.
There are two things I don’t like in the world change and unseasoned food, change is inevitable but it doesn’t mean I like it and have to accept Santana coming into the picture and i already said i dont like it.
