WHO DOES HIDEKI WANT?
Chapter 1
THE START OF THE JOURNEY

It was the middle of the afternoon. Chi was sitting in Hideki's living room, thinking of none-other-than Hideki himself. Plum was off somewhere else in the house, straightening up some things for Hideki. Suddenly they heard thumps outside the apartment. Plum came scurrying into the room to see who it was, and Chi immediately perked up. They heard jingling noises. At this they knew that it was either Hideki or Ms. Hibya at the door. When the door opened, they saw Hideki, his face glowing as though he had gotten a free subscription to ever porn magazine in Tokyo, enter. "Hideki! Welcome home!!" said Chi brightly as Hideki walked in. "Welcome home! Welcome back! Welcome to your humble shack!!" Plum sang while twirling around on the table that Hideki uses for studying (when he does study). "Oh hey Chi! Hey Plum!" said Hideki when the two persocoms had finished their welcomes. "I have great news!" "Tell me the news Hideki!" said Chi excited about whatever it was that made Hideki so happy. "Okay," said Hideki, "me and Yumi have been saving up some money for a long time and we finally have enough to go on vacation together! I'm not sure how long we'll be gone but I'm leaving you two alone without someone watching you. I hope that you'll keep in touch with me. I'll be packing now and leaving immediately." "That's great scary master!" said Plum enthusiastically. "I'll help you pack." "That would be great Plum, thanks." said Hideki.
After Plum helped Hideki pack and Hideki left, Chi felt sad. Plum, being as watchful as she is, noticed this and came up to Chi to try to comfort her.
"What's wrong Chi-chan?" asked Plum worried.
"Chan? Chi doesn't understand this." said Chi.
"Chan, when put after a name, signifies that the person whose name comes before it is your friend." explained Plum who had gotten used to Chi not understanding everything. Plum had always tried to help Chi better understand things other than what words meant.
"You think of me as your friend?" asked Chi sadly.
"Yes I do. I can't think of anyone you know that doesn't." said Plum reassuringly.
Chi's face brightened a little.
"Can Chi call you Plum-chan?" she asked.
"Yes you may." said Plum brightly.
"Thanks." said Chi.
"So what is it that's bothering you Chi?" said Plum.
"Whenever Hideki leaves, Chi gets sad. Chi doesn't know why though. But it hurts right here." Chi put her hands on her heart and put her head down.
"Well we have a little time without anyone around, I say that we go somewhere that you would like."
"Somewhere Chi would like." said Chi under her breath. "Can we go where Hideki is?"
"Why would you want to do that when we could go anywhere else?" asked Plum.
Chi broke down (not that she stopped moving or anything) and told Plum the whole thing, down to her other self and her love for Hideki. At the end, Plum looked thoughtful.
"I understand what you're saying but I have no idea where Hideki is, we'll have to wait until he tries to make contact with us. That could take a long time, if he does at all. But once I know where he is, we can go there and find Hideki and see if you can beat Yumi for his heart."
"Thank you so much Plum-chan!!!!" Chi said thrilled at the idea of Hideki being hers.
"Anything for a friend." said Plum smiling and winking.
The bad thing was it took a whole week until Hideki made contact. Minoru was over and talking with Chi about what she might remember about her past and who made her. Plum was on the internet and looking for anywhere with the name Hideki Motosuwa as one of their listed guests. Suddenly Plum perked up and said to Chi,
"Hideki is calling right now!!"

Well this is the end of the first chapter. In case I got the thing with Shimbo and Ms. Shimizu wrong, don't hate me. I haven't finished the series yet. Or gotten so far in it either. I hoped you liked this. The second chapter should be out soon. Cha!!
