Nikki couldn't help but smile innocently. Satsumi listened to her explanation, happy to listen to how she had gotten so good. She smiled a bit, listening to her explain to everything. She couldn't help but share a bit of her own, and by extension, her sisters' histories. "After Dad had passed away, the family kinda.. split apart. We had a big family, in line with tradition and all. Somehow most of us came out as girls and only a couple boys. We all still care for and visit Mom, but the family kinda scattered after his passing. We all ended up in difference places. Nikki and Miles went off to the Navy, Erika and Jake went off to Rheinland, Akika and I went to Kusari. I don't remember where Sarah went back then but she runs freelance cargo now. It was weird times. I maybe fell in with some bad crowds in Kusari to start with. Learning to dodge both rival gangs and police patrols helped me learn how to fly quickly, but soon enough I left those gangs behind. I found a new home and been with a bunch of girls that are almost as close as my family. Despite the fact that we spend some years apart in the beginning.. we all still find each other, like on Hanazuki. I think what happened was, we all kinda went out to find ourselves in the sector. Some of us got hurt, yea, but we're still together as a strong family. Even found new family in the sector, Nikki seems to be the one to find the most new family members."
Satsumi couldn't help but snicker at the last comment, which embarrassed her sister a little bit. "We've learned that family isn't always those you're born with, but those you choose to care for too. Sometimes family isn't the closest, but being there when in need matters alot."
