The next morning.
In the bathroom.
Takeo: "Maimi, can you stop making yourself so fat in front of the sink, there happen to be other people in the house who want to brush their teeth."
Maimi: *smiling*
"You don't have to act like that now, my dear brother. You just want to look like me."
*poses sexy*
Takeo: *smirks*
"Nobody wants to look like a hippo that is obviously mentally disturbed."
Maimi: *With her mouth open, she stares at her brother*
"Why are you being so mean."
*Offended, she washes her toothbrush, puts it in her mug and leaves the bathroom*
Takeo: *yells after her*
"I didn't mean it like that."
Maimi: *looks at her brother while smiling*
"I know just wanted to see your reaction."
*laughing, she leaves*
Takeo: *smiles a little*
In the Kitchen.
Maimi: *sits at the table*
"Good morning mom."
Mother:" Good morning sweet heart."
Father: *comes in the kitchen, gives Maimi a little kiss on the forehead and her mother one on the lips*
"Good morning."
Mother: "Morning"
Takeo: *comes in the kitchen, pats Maimis head and takes a seat at the tabel*
Father: "What? No good Morning?"
Takeo: "Good morning my annoying but beautiful family."
*Grins at his father*
Father: "I'll take that grin away from you soon."
Takeo: "But hopefully that won't be today. Because today is the day I'll introduce my girlfriend to you."
Maimi/Mother/Father: "WHAT?"
Takeo: *Grins*
Maimi: (He has a girlfriend? My brother?)
Mother: *hugs Takeo with a bride smile*
"Finally the day has come."
Father: "I would be happy to meet her."
Maimi: (Somehow I don't feel very well)
Takeo: "She'll be here right after classes are over."
Mother: "That's good news Takeo I'm so happy to hear you finally got a girlfriend."
Maimi: *looks down on her lap and then to her mother*
"I'm going to be late for school. I'll be leaving now. Bye."
On the way to school.
Maimi: (What was that feeling I just got in there. Was it jealousy? Was it because I'm losing my brother? Or because I'm losing a good friend?)
"Or because I.."
*shakes head*
"There's no way."
A large hand reached for her shoulder from behind.
Maimi: *shrugged and looked at the hands owner*
"Omg.. Taiyo.. You scared me."
Taiyo: "I called for you but you didn't respond to it."
*looks into her eyes*
"Did something happen? "
Maimi: *nervously smiles at him*
"No, don't worry. I'm just a little tired."
Taiyo: *looks at her in disbelief*
"Alright, if you say so. I'm not going to question you."
Maimi: *gives him a warm smile*
"Thank you."
Taiyo: "Anytime"
In the classroom.
Fumiko: "Me and my boyfriend talked about this matter and we made up"
Maimi: "Aha.."
Fumiko: "Maimi?"
Maimi: *looking at her desk while playing with her fingers*
"..."
Fumiko: "Earth on Maimi! You listening to me?"
*waving her hand in front of her face*
Maimi: *getting back to her senses*
"Huh..?"
Fumiko: "Did you even hear what I've told you?"
Maimi: "No I'm sorry. I was dazed out for a moment."
Fumiko: "What's the matter? Did something happen at home?"
Maimi: "No nothing don't worry. I'm just tired."
Fumiko: "You're lying. Something must've happend. You know you can talk to me."
Maimi: "It's nothing, really."
Fumiko: *looks at her in disbelief*
"Hm ok.."
In the break.
*Maimis sitting alone on the grass. Dazed out she's looking up at the sky*
Random guys walking by:
1 Random guy: "Look there's miss white"
Both laughing.
Fumiko joining you.
Fumiko: "You're both so funny, you're parents must be proud of you."
After that they left.
Maimi: "Thank you, but you didn't have to help me."
Fumiko: *lays a hand on one of Maimis and smiles*
"You're my best friend of course I had to help you and no matter what they say about your hair color, they're just jealous because your unique."
Maimi: "That's why you're my best friend."
*hugging each other*
Fumiko: "So you want to talk about It?"
Maimi: *confused looking at Fumiko*
"About what?"
Fumiko: "About why you're so dazed out lately!"
Maimi: "It's complicated. You wouldn't understand."
Fumiko: *raising one eyebrow*
"Try me"
Maimi: *laughs and gets serious after taking 1 minute to think about how to tell her*
"I think.. I fell in love with my brother.."
Fumiko: *shes looking at her, shocked*
"...Wait...you...what?.."
Maimi: "I don't know either I realized it after my brother told us that he got a girlfriend."
Fumiko: "You know that.. you can't date your blood relatives right?"
Maimi: *hiding her face in her lap and her arms*
"I know but I can't help feeling jealousy towards his girlfriend."
Fumiko: "I understand. So the only thing we can do about it is to get you a boyfriend."
Maimi: *looking at Fumiko*
"A boyfriend?"
Fumiko: "Yes, so you can stop thinking about your brother."
Maimi: "Alright, I can give it a try."
