Mati missed me. Kaya wrote that in an e-mail. She said Mati searched for me after I left. Looking in all of the places where I would be. The corner where I slept. The edge of the porch where we sat. Under the pile of clothes where we hid. She would look up at Kaya. Point to those places.

But I dont think she recognized me yesterday. She had that wary look in her eyes. Even after Kaya introduced me. She kept her distance. Hiding behind Kayas legs. It was ok. I kept my distance too.

Truth is I dont really want her here. Shes so intrusive. Take yesterday afternoon. She was engrossed in the Powerpuff movie. So Kaya and I escaped to the kitchen. We were barely there five minutes. Snuggling and kissing. Thats when Mati walked in. She just stood there. With that weird stare. It was creepy.

Things are better today. The little rugrat is warming up to me. But I still feel uncomfortable. Im afraid to go nude. Kaya and I did that this weekend. The house was empty. We were all alone. It was hot. So we walked around without clothes. I wanted to do that yesterday. Id like to do that right now. But I cant. It would be too weird.
