Day dream
I was the reasonable one. The one who kept a straight face, because I had to. And because I knew nothing else. I didn’t have to cry or get angry. My sister harbored those emotions for me. We are one in the same through out eternity. A mighty immortal creature capable of leveling entire cities and so forth. But the tears stream down my face. I don’t try to stop them they ease the loneliness I feel since Chris left. The raccoon Pon-chan is also inconsolable. She has come here on many occasions and talked with Junrei my youngest sister. They love to talk about all the things they used to do with Chris. Kanan who also is younger than me snaps at the mention of Chris. She always yells things like “stop your useless reminiscing its not going to make him come back!” this always sends Junrei and Pon-chan into a fresh wave of tears. But yelling is only a way to get out her own pain. Some times when she thinks no one is watching she brings out the picture that Chris drew her. The picture was of the three of them in their true form, which is dragon. Even though they shared the same body, there could only be one at a time ‘out’. The other two had to wait to speak. But that only applied when they were their ‘human’ form. When Chris was at the pet shop they took the form of an eight-year-old girl with long black hair and dressed in a colorful kimono. When we are a dragon we have one body and three heads. Usually the fights between us don’t last long when Chris is around. Because Junrei is so happy to see him. Kanan is happy too. But she usually stays back in our mind until there is something she can criticize him about. Then she boldly steps forward and does so. That usually
brought Chris to tears. On the day that Chris left I had wanted to sleep through it all so he and my sisters wouldn’t see me shed tears. But he called to me through our contract and I had no choice but to come forth. He tried to ask me a question about what to do. But at that time I could no longer hear him nor could he hear me. I didn’t get to say bye or that I would miss him. When I realized I would never see him again I looked away from my sisters. And single tear ran down my face. Through the next nineteen years I went back to my normal self. And on the twentieth anniversary of him leaving he came back. Pon-chan came running into our room screaming about Chris being back. Junrei stopped crying and Kanan stopped yelling at her. We all stared at her in disbelief. Pon-chan put some incense in the burner and soon clouds of sweet smoke rolled over us. We were once again in our human form. But this time we were a woman. She had long black hair just like our former self. But the clothing we wore was plainer and in dark blues. Junrei was the one who was in control of our body’s actions. She quickly ran out of the room and down the hall. She was following Pon-chan. We finally stopped wen we reached the front of the Count’s shop. Junrei squealed, Kanan grumbled and I receded farther into our mind, I would sleep until he left. I could hear Kanan yelling at Chris for staying away so long. Junrei was yelling over Kanan and was saying how she missed him. The Chris asked where I was. I tried to send him a message but it wouldn’t reach. But my sisters heard it. “Chris it would be better if… if you were only a fading daydream”
