Chapter 2:
Handball & Heartbeats
"Shhhh! Stop yelling, Ken!" said his stepmom. Ken stands there, open-mouthed in shock. His stepmother calls the unknown girl "Ella come here. Ken! This is Ella. Ella! This is Ken, your stepbrother", both at the same time "S-s-stepbrother??".
The three went to the table in the living room, Hilda (Ken's Stepmom) went to prepare tea for the conversation, while Ken and Ella sat down at the table. They both remained silent and stared at each other. So Ella said "Can u stop staring at me! You're making me uncomfortable", He realized and blushed "I-I'm s-sorry, I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable". Meanwhile Hilda enters the room and places the tea on the table.
As Hilda prepares to begin explaining, suddenly someone rings the doorbell, Hilda got upset and went to open the door. She opened the door and they heard someone saying "Sorry I forgot the keys", going to the living room again, Hilda said to Ken dad "Just in time Saito!".
"Now that the family is together we can talk" said Hilda to try to ease the tension in the room. "So as i said before, Ken she is your stepsister, my daughter, she isn't really good at Japanese. Ella wants to try to introduce yourself?", Ella got embarrassed and said "M-my name is Ella, I'm 15 yea-ears old and I-I'm in the f-first year of hi-high school", Hilda congratulates Ella "you've been practicing well!" Ella relaxed after her mother's words.
"Ok Ella has already met Saito, so Ken introduced yourself to her." said Hilda forcing him. Ken very calmly said "My name is Ken Kujou, I'm almost 16 years old, I'm also in the first year of high school. Whenever you need help at school, look for me". Ella shows a smiling face to him "Thanks Ken! Can I call u Ken right?" Ken smile "of course! We are family!".
Hilda interrupted the moment " Ok! Now that you've met each other, Ella and I are going to make dinner. Ken go study, and Saito go clean our bedroom!" said this with a tone of annoyance and obligation.
Ken and Saito get up "Of course ma'am". Both went upstairs and before Ken enters his room his dad said "Doesn't matter what happens, I just want you to support and help her and always treat her like a sister". Ken with a confident stance "Don't worry dad!".
Some time passed and everyone went to the table, ready to have dinner. Before they start eating Hilda said "Thank you God for always help my family, LET'S EAT".
During the meal Hilda said "Ken and Ella! I had a conversation with the school, and they let her go to your class, Isn't that great?" Ella sighed and looked happy "Ni-nice, it's go-ood to have some-meone that I know in the cl-class!". Ken looked indifferent "That's amazing, i will give my best to help you".
It's now morning and Ken it's already ready to go to school but Ella just woke up.
