《Sasha》20. ~The three words~
Advertisement
Sasha walked up to the front door and fumbled with the doorknob.
"What do you mean she's fallen in love? This is my sister we're talking about! She's had someone under her thumb before but she's never tried kissing him. You were obviously following the wrong person," Miya's voice trailed from the side of the house as she spoke with someone Sasha didn’t know. "Go! I'll find someone else if I find out you're wrong."
So she has a spy? That’s how she knows everything?
Sasha continued fumbling with the doorknob but paused again.
How does she pay her spy? She wouldn't give away the money mom left us.
Luna came to mind.
Couldn't be, Sasha shook her head, eliminating the silly thought and opened the door.
The side door slammed shut and a surprised Miya stood staring at Sasha like she’d been caught red-handed.
Holding onto Yatsu so long, the fuzziness lingered, leaving Sasha physically and mentally exhausted. She didn't want to fight Miya, besides, she Miya knew everything already, it wouldn't hurt to confirm it. "Go get Luna, and grab the pail of ice cream from the freezer.”
Miya brightened up and flew down the stairs to the basement.
Taking advantage of the minute she had, Sasha took off her shoes and climbed up the stairs to the second floor. In her bedroom she changed her clothes but caught her reflection in the tall mirror standing in the corner of her room.
In the reflection she didn't see a girl with a boyfriend, she saw a petite girl with pink pigtails and a flat chest. A girl too young to have a woman's figure. If the girl wasn't her, she'd guess the girl in the reflection was twelve, maybe thirteen years old. Not a girl dating a boy.

If she held hands with Yatsu in public, people might think they were older brother younger sister, and if her twin sisters were there, it would look like Yatsu had triplets for sisters.
Sasha needed to find a way to make herself look her age.
Do I still have that stuff?
She spun around, and tossed open her closet door. Sasha dug deep and found an unmarked box. A dusty box. Dusty meaning Miya never found it.
The contents of the box held gifts from Sasha's ex-boyfriend. She didn't understand then, but now she had an idea why he gave them to her. She opened the lid, revealing girly products she'd never thought she would use, not for herself.
"Sash-a!" Miya called out, begging Sasha to join them, they probably wanted her to scoop the rock-solid ice cream out of the container.
"I'm coming!" She closed the lid, and shoved the box back where Miya would never find it. Tossed on some basic clothes and joined her twin sisters.
Luna handed Sasha the scoop then patiently waited holding out two ice cream cones.
Miya placed a bowl on the counter. "There are only two cones left," she explained.
Armed with the scoop Sasha nodded and went to battle with the ice cream. To her surprise it gave way rather easily. How long did I make them wait?
After making their cones, and her bowl, the three of them sat around the kitchen table.
Sasha ate a spoonful, savored the vanilla flavor. As she took her second, she eyed Miya -who neatly licked away at her cone. Sasha shifted her gaze to Luna, who had ice cream on her cheeks.
It was now or never. "I'm going to bring a boy home one day that I want you two to meet."

Luna stopped in mid-lick and Miya froze, in the middle of devouring a big portion of her cone and slapped her own forehead with a pained expression.
"Ow, I hate it when that happens... okay, what was that? I don't think I heard you right," Miya said.
Miya heard Sasha just fine, but Sasha humoured her. "I would like you to meet my boyfriend one day."
"What makes you think you will have this boyfriend longer than the last one?" Miya countered.
Sasha met Miya's cold gaze. Miya wouldn't believe anything Sasha said unless she made it very clear to her.
Sasha reached into the back of her mind and pulled the three word phrase she planned to use. There was, at least, some truth to it and Sasha was confident she would not falter saying it, convincing her unbelieving little sister she finally found someone she liked.
"I love him."

Contact First
2039 - Earth A narrow beam energy signal appeared aimed squarely at earth from the TRAPPIST system. The communication consisted of a layered set of repeating data over several thousand wavelengths. Over the next few months scientists discovered that the lower wavelengths carried an encoded numerical language which could then be used to interpret the more complicated messages carried on the higher wavelengths. After half a year of painstaking work the signal was fully decoded. It described a small satellite launched along a precise trajectory towards the fourth planet of our solar system. Included was a package of advanced research that humanity would need to have ready in order to receive the satellite and decelerate it safely. The alien data provided the kick that humanity needed to turn from petty squabbling and unite to explore the final frontier. Major government and corporate leaders worked together to create the framework for the United Federation of Sol. UFS spaceports went from scaffolding to daily launches in every major city around the globe. Ships floated like dandelion seeds, spreading on solar wind to grow into colonies. 2397 - Mars orbit, Egeria Station The command center was a hive of activity as checks were conducted and systems initialized. Scientists flitted by like mayflies as communicators beeped and holoscreens spat out green tinted readouts. Nervous energy was thick in the air as everyone anticipated the culmination of over three hundred years of work. Massive fusion reactors under the planet's surface thrummed with barely restrained power as energy fed into a gleaming metallic maze criss crossing the planet. Metal fingers reached up, overshadowing the mighty olympus mons and trying to grab the stars. All over the solar system, people quickly turned to look as gigantic energy lances shot from the dusty fourth planet. Two years later. The same people that clapped loudly at the successful activation of project Hermes now wait with baited breath. A silver capsule trailing bright photonic sails is captured by a net of grav beams and guided with care bordering on reverence into the station. Holoscreens across the headquarters project an image of the sleek craft settling in the bay. Data connections are established and the holoscreens blink to white. Slowly an image forms on the screen. Across the headquarters people stare in wonder as a wholly alien face stares back. "Contact established. Welcome to the universe."
