Chapter 2

Being watchedI´m cold and that´s not because of the wind. I´ve seen a shadow and I know, who it is lurking in the dark. Oh yes, it´s not only today that my angel with the black wings – or should I say, my darling Rei – is watching me. She has always been there, since I can remember. Staying, keeping watch over me and my well-being and fighting against anything which could possibly harm me. Sometimes I think she wanted to be good at Kendo not because her father is a Kendo teacher, but because she can better protect me as a fighter. She tries to protect me since I can think, but against the worst danger even she has no power. Oh, how I hate my weak hearth, my ill health. How I wish I could run like everyone else, do sport instead of watching it, be foolish, not to have to think before everytime, if I’m really going to make it. I want to spend enough time with my fellow students to actually make friends. The only one I have and ever will have, is Rei. Rei, who is not only my confident and my cousin, but my older sister, my grande soeur. Sometimes I catch myself wishing my rosary would have came from some mysterious, exciting stranger. On the other hand I know of course, that there isn´t anyone else I would want to be bound to. Even when I wish for a more exciting souer  I know exactly that Rei is my other half, my sun and my moon. I can´t exist without her. Not because I´m fragile, not because I need a knight but because she completes me like no one else, because she is  the one I love more than everything else in the world. More than my family, more than my health – for her I would do anything and everything.
