Act 1
The Arrival
I was sitting in the back seat of a black mustang waiting to arrive at my grandma/ babysitters home. My dad normally wouldn't bother to get me a babysitter but the school consoler was asking too many questions. Now I was going to have to live with my cousin and grandmother for awhile. The car stopped in front of a huge house with a blond that looked about my age and an old lady standing in front of it. I recognized my cousin because of some pictures and postcards we had sent each other, I guessed the old lady was grandma because well who else would it be? That's when I saw something I wasn't expecting a chara flouting next to Tadase. Oh man, now I was going to have to hide Ani at least for a while.
"Hey, Ani wake up." I whispered into my black pouch, shaking it a bit so Ani would wake up.
"Huh…what is it? Ani asked sweetly with a yawn as she flouted out of the pouch. Ani was wearing her usual light pink shoes and white dress that made her tan skin and blond curls shine and her beautiful white wings flouting behind her.
"I need you to stay in your pouch till I tell you." I whispered casually with a small smile.
"Alright."She said giving me a suspicious look, but deciding to go back inside the pouch. I opened the car door and stepped outside Kik a friend that had offered to drive me was getting my suitcase out of the car's trunk. I had only brought the necessary tooth brush, clothes for about 2 weeks, my phone and, my violin. Grandma and Tadase came closer when they saw me come out of the car. Tadase was wearing shorts and a t-shirt and grandma was wearing a kimono. "
Hello, it's nice to see you." Tadase greeted with a warm and welcoming smile.
"Is that all your luggage?" Grandma asked indifferently as she watched Kik pull a bag out of the car's trunk.
"Yep." I answered cheerfully it was going to be fun to mess with her.
"It's good to see you guys." I said with a smile, Tadase smiled back and grandma just kept looking at Kik. Kik walked up to us and handed Tadase the suitcase which didn't seem to bother him.
"Well, I'll see you later, Gladdy." Kik said as we slightly banged are knuckles together.
"Bye, man." I said as he got into the driver's seat.
"Bye!!" He yelled as he rode off, we stood there until the car was out of sight.
"Tadase show Gladdy her room, please." Grandma said as she walked inside.
"Yes, grandmother." Tadase said in agreement with a slight nod of the head.
"Come on!" I said cheerfully putting my arm around his shoulder.
"Alright let's go!" He said taking me inside.
I walked behind him as he made a tour of the house until we finally got to my room. We both sat in my room and talked about school, guardians, friends, hobbies, favorite food, colors, shows, and movies until grandma called us for dinner, I left Ani in her pouch. We walked to the dining room and sat down next to each other. Grandma's maid served us some rice balls and pork with vegetables. When we were all finished eating I raped some left over's with a napkin and hide them in my black jacket's pocket then me and Tadase went back to my room and talked some more until grandma told us to go to sleep. Tadase left and I opened the pouch Ani was in. Ani was awake and looking bored sitting in the corner. I pulled her out of the pouch.
"You okay?"I asked with a smile.
"Why was I hiding?" Ani asked looking a bit mad.
"Well…my cousin has a chara." I answered.
"So, does that mean I'm going to hide while were here?" Ani asked looking worried a hint of anger in her voice.
"No. "I said with a nervous laugh, I wasn't sure what I was going to do.
" Promise?" Ani asked flouting towards the bed.
"Promise!" I assured her sitting on the bed, slowly falling asleep with Ani on my lap.
