Kira tapped her finger on the table as Shigure, Hatsuharu and Yuki explained to her about what happened earlier with Kisa.

"Are you mad, Kira?" Hatsuharu asked

For a moment, Kira just kept silent, making them uncomfortable. When she was at the Main estate, she was suddenly called by Satsuki, asking if she knew where Kisa was, since her mother said she had run away from home.

Kira was about to leave but ran into Hatori who gave her a message from Hatsuharu that he was at her and Shigure's house-with news about Kisa since he went out searching for her for the past few days.

It was pure luck at the timing since Kira was about to literally order the servants to aid her in searching for the preteen.

"I am not happy, but not enough to be angry with her" Kira expressed through a low tone as she turned to Yuki," Relax, I am not going to do anything or get mad. She was found and that is all that matters. There is no need for me to report this to Akito, so you can settle down"

"Are you sure?" Shigure asked and Kira just nodded," Oh, well you both heard her," He said turning to the boys

Kira said turning to Yuki, "She can stay, for the time being, she can share a room with Tohru, go on ahead and let them know" He nodded and left the room.

"Oh, is someone staying over?" Kyo walked in on only just mid-way of the sentence said by Kira.

Shigure nodded looking at him," Yes, Kisa, a lot of things happened"

"A lot of things?"

Hatsuharu hummed as he turned a page in the book he had in his hand," Her mother seemed to be close to her limit, so a little separation will probably benefit both sides"

"Huh? I really don't understand at all. Anyways why are you here and where is Kisa?"

"Right next to Tohru," All of them said together making Kyo almost jump.

Later that night, Kira had been the only one up in the house and she used the chance to recollect her thoughts about a conversation she has had with Hiro's mother, Satsuki, just earlier today.

She was actually stunned when the exuberant mother had invited her over for tea. To say that it put Kira in a very awkward situation, was a complete understatement. Because, for starters, Hiro was not the hugest fan of her and it might have ended messily if he had come home from school to one of the family heads in his place of sanctuary.

"I was afraid that was what happened," Satsuki said through sympathy, after having been told of Kisa's current and ongoing matters," I wasn't really able to get the entire story from her mother when she called me about it, but hearing it, it only makes me wonder if I expected to not feel this horrible"

"What makes you say that?" Kira asked genuinely curious

"It's just, the thought of them being bullied have definitely been across my mind, but to the extent of it actually having is quite frightening. I've heard of it happening to a couple of the other kids and having Kisa, who is like a daughter to me, someone so sweet and pure to be part of it just puts me into a different light. It makes me worry about, what if Hiro also was going through this, but he is just stubbornly putting up with it"

"Hiro," Kira looked out the window and a smile laced her lips, not that she was aware of," Is strong and stubborn, I have no doubts that even if he did go through it, he wouldn't let it bother him. He has this fighting nature within and he also has the strong will to not give up"

Hiro who had been home for a few minutes, but in hiding not wanting to present himself or make himself known for the matter heard her words.

He was absolutely stunned and unable to move form his place.

Kira had not been able to notice him, because her mind was too focused on the recent events that her ability to feel him was not strong enough.

"Hiro has always been a fighter," Satsuki nodded as she tilted her head," Because of it, it makes me not worry about him being a big brother"

Kira turned at her last few words before unknowingly smiling at the news. While she knew the child was most definitely not a member of the Zodiac, the news of new members in the family, in general, was always a blessing to her at most.

She asked "So, those visits and house calls with Hatori-

Satsuki's smile confirmed it as well with her hand on her stomach.

"Congratulations, Satsuki"

"Thank you, Kira"
