"WHAT?!?
YOU'RE ADOPTING A KID?!?!?" Doremi cried.
"Yes."
Doremi's mom told her calmly. "Not only are we adopting a child,
your father have already met him, and..."
"Wait a
minute... him? Him? HIM?!? The kid is a boy?" Doremi asked in
shock.
"Yes, of course. As I was saying, the child is Pop's
age, and he has the most amazing name. Ceon. Don't you agree? "
Doremi's mom asked her in a quesionable tone.
"Yeah, I
guess." Doremi told, feeling that she had to answer.
"Well,
he comes tomorrow, and..." Doremi's mom was starting to talk
again, when she was interrupted by a huge "thump" from
upstairs.
"Yeow!!!!!" Doremi's dad screamed, running
down the stairs faster than you could say "OJAMAJO". He was
decorating Ceon's room, when he accidently dropped the hammer on his
foot.
"What the heck..." Doremi thought to herself,
while Pop came out from the kitchen.
"As I was saying, he
arrives tomorrow, and we need to prepare. It will be an important day
for him, and for us, so I need you two on your best behaviour."
Doremi's mom told them.
"You don't need to worry about me,
Mom. Doremi, on the other hand..." Pop told her, trying to sound
like the perfect child.
"Why you little..." Doremi said,
with her signature "Pblth, Pblth, Pblth".
"This is
what I mean. Please be better behaving tommorow, or I might have
to..." Doremi's mom was once again interrupted, this time by the
doorbell.
"I'll get it." said Doremi with a smile,
which, when she opened the door, suddenly disappeared.
Pop and her
mom turned to the door, to see the reason why Doremi lost her smile.
At the door was Aiko, and she did not look happy.
"Aiko,
what's wrong?" Doremi asked, wondering what ticked her
off.
"Doremi, I need you to come to the Maho-Dou quick. It's
an emergency."
"I'll be there right away." Doremi
said, while thinking to herself "Aiko's timing was perfect".
