Sakura peeked around the corner. No way. Tammy? No. She died, a long time ago at that. Her pelt shivered as the other she kept talking. Yes, that had to be her. No doubt about it. Young, and alive again. How in the heavens had that happened? Emerald green eyes blinked as she ook steps foreward to engage in the conversation. It wasn't her place, but as soon as she though about it... Rage tore thhrough her, though she shyly stepped up and sat beside Ray.
A polite sideways crook of the head and she asaked quietly, "Tammy?"

Ray was further jarred from his thoughts by Sakura's sudden intrusion. Words were wasted on him but not on Iecerin, fortunately. Curling her lips in amusement, she fought back her full reaction; she didn't think it would make a good first impression to laugh outright at her misfortune. "Ah, the common mistake. We haven't met; I'm Iecerin. Tammy's my mother."

Her green eyes widened. Tammy had a daughter?? With whom? Why was she here now, so long after her moms death? Questions rattled around in her head, but she asked none of them. She made a simple comment. "I didn't know Tammy had had kits. Well, it's nice to meet you, I'm Sakura. I'm sure all of us here could use some new company." She turned to Ray, who looked utterly speechless. She nudged him slightly. She peered at him, with a sudden burst of thought that burned in her grass green eyes. What if.. Icerin? was HIS daughter? What would he say?

A seemingly endless torrent of questions escaped his parted lips. He had just gone to sigh when they had all decided to come out: "Why didn't she tell me? Why'd she name you Iecerin? Who cared for you after her death? How long did it take for you to track me here? Why'd you wait? When did she tell you? Did somebody put you up t--"
"--What does any of that matter?" she impatiently interrupted, tongue sticking out as she realized how sweltering the weather was. Disregarding common courtesies, she answered every question of his with her own.
Fur bristling, his brows furrowed. He had been like her once, he realized, so young and impertinent, thinking that only his opinions were of importance. Struggling to maintain a cool layer of indifference--his only means of weaponry against the blossomed seed of his deranged spouse of sorts--he felt ashamed. His own flesh and blood, the only flesh and blood he had left, sitting there seeing him like that. Fighting was pointless and useless; he gave in. "Excuse me! When I inquire as to your whereabouts and general well-being, I expect to hear an answer of some sort rather than this-this-insubordination! Now, are we going to answer my questions, or aren't we?"
Sniffing delicately as if she had gotten her feelings hurt, the young ginger she thrust her bottom lip forward into a sulky pout. "You don't have to patronize me, you know. I was going to tell you anyway. So, what's your first question?"

As Icerin answered his questions she sat and watched as theyy cominucated. Ray... Poor Ray. It must be hard, loving this cats mother. And having her came back, only now it was too late. She felt something that she never thought she would feel for Ray. Pitty. The look in his eyes was indescribable.
Then suddenly lshe looked at him. "Ray?" She asked loudly. What she was doing was on an impulse. Nothing more than a whim. She had no clue what she was doing ether. Just what her gut told her. Where ever her emotions told her to e, that's where she would go with this.

Choking on his vocal chords, Ray couldn't bring himself to interrogate the fiery she-cat. His daughter--could he be proud of her? Sakura's promptings for him to speak interrupted his thoughts. With slight irritation, he raised a brow as he focused on her frame. "Wait a moment, Iecerin. What is it, Sakura?" He did a fairly good job of masking his exasperation. Iecerin merely rolled her eyes at how easily he had been distracted.

Sakura saw the slight irritation in both of them. They also both did a fairly good job in hiding it. It made her want to mew with laughter. She wanted to ask something, but it hid down in her chest, and didn't rise he her tounge. The she cat standing across from her also made her want to tear claws out and shred fur. She was the living representation of Ray's love for someone else. How come he didn't love her? With so many emotions swirling around, churning her stomach, and bamboosling her mind, all she could do was let tears fill her dark green eyes. She choked on words, and stood, looking like quite an idiot, she thought.

Damn it all!, he thought. Now you've gone and made her sad. Eyes widening, his brows raised sympathetically. He inched closer to the she-cat and placed his tail on her shoulder. "Hey, it's okay. Whatever I've done--whatever's wrong--I'm sorry. Just...don't look so down, okay?" Gently licking her left ear, he dipped his head in respect. At that point, he didn't care what anyone thought of him; it didn't matter if they reckoned him as a shameless casanova or a harlot or what have you.
Lips pursing, Iecerin waited for the right moment to jump in. "Yeah, whatever this geezer's done, forget about it. Find something--or someone--else to focus on."

Really Ray? Do you really not want me to look sad? Or are you saying it to look good for people? She thought this question, and something tugged in her gut to ask him this, but she was scared something would go wrong, that he would get mad. Slowly, she whimpered in a pathetic way, "Don't look sad? You dno't want me too?"
Icerin's comment made her want to lash out, and beat her. But Sakura's claws were deep in the eath, holding her in place.

Whiskers twitching, Iecerin's spine tingled in fiendish delight. She felt so very, very naughty! It was all she could do to keep from bounding across Twoleg place in joy. Struggling to remain calm, she firmly reminded herself that this wasn't about her. Still, she realized happily, this did not mean that she couldn't enjoy the drama as it unfolded. Lying on her left side, she prepared for the worst.
Brows wrinkling, he shook his head. What had gotten into her lately? Your idiocy, his self-loathing conscience eagerly quipped. Thanks, he inwardly told himself. Sighing, he looked into her eyes. "Of course not. Why would I want anybody to be sad, especially you? Look, I know that I've toyed with your feelings, and that's not right. A simple 'I'm sorry' obviously won't cut it. So let me know what I can do to make it up to you."

Her eyes widdened. Your asking to make it better? Be mine, be mine forever. She wanted to tell him that, to be hers forever and never leave her side. And immediatly another thought flooded her mind. You toyed with my feelings? You never had any back? You never told me that.... "Erm..." She felt very awkward with his statement, not knowing what to say. Should she be generous, and say have a nice life, knowing that she'd be forever scared? Should she be wicked and tell him never to come near her again? "I- I'm not sure. What do you think?"

Inhaling and exhaling, he caught whiff of her scent--so fragrant, so sweet. What was he doing? He couldn't seem to make sense of how to make things up to her. Thinking for a moment, he finally decided that he would have to say something lest she think that he had lost interest in the conversation. "I can start with the full apology--an honest apology. Sakura, you are, without a doubt, one of the loveliest cats that this neighborhood has to offer. There are countless toms--and even some she-cats--who would gladly go out on a limb for your affections. You are unique, and you are special. My deepest regret is that I hurt you, and I can never forgive myself for that. I, as I said before, unintentionally toyed with your emotions--not on purpose, mind--but nevertheless, I hurt you anyway. I can honestly say that I love you, but I'm afraid that it's not the kind of love that you want or may have for me. I love you as a friend, a caregiver, and as a fellow cat. It will never be enough to merely apologize, and I fully acknowledge that."
