Life in Namimori: Chapter 1: The Past (Part 1)
This chapter takes place in Namimori 5 years in the past. You the reader are the young 10 year old Chouko Nakamura in this chapter.
~ You (CHOUKO) and your family (YASUO; DAD and MEGUMI; MUM) board a hot and slightly humid train; it is currently summer in Japan. YASUO (DAD) is carrying a bunch of suitcases in his arms and places the luggage into the luggage holders above your seats. You (CHOUKO) are finishing eating a lollipop, while Megumi (MUM) is directing you to your seat. Everyone is staring at you and your family, whispering as they do so ~
~ On a Train heading to Namimori - 5 years in the past ~
Woman #1: *Whispers to the woman sitting next to her* "Is that man over there a model?"
Woman #2: *Whispers back to the woman* "Probably…he's so hot!"
Your Inner Thoughts: *you look at the two women disgusted* Papa is far from being a model and ewwww…. He's nearly thirty years old…
Guy #1: *Whispers to the guy he is standing next to* "That woman has really big boobs; I wonder how old she is?"
Guy #2: *Whispers back to the guy*"Ah! She really does have big boobs, looks like a couple of F-Cups…by the way I saw her first"
Guy #1: *Hisses back at the guy standing next to him* "What! No way! I saw her first…"
*The two men start to have a small, but heated discussion over who saw your mum first*
Your Inner Thoughts: *You look at the two guys standing disgusted* don't they realise that woman that they're talking about is your mom and what a shameful thing to do on a public train…
Woman #1: *Whispers to the woman standing next to her* "That little girl is so cute~! Just like a petite doll~!"
Woman #2: *Whispers back to the woman sitting down next to her* "Ah, your right- so cute~!"
Your Inner Thoughts: *Proudly* Well at least they got something right…
Yasuo: "Make sure you're on your best behaviour, Chouko-Chan"
*You stop listening to the crowds' comments and pay attention to Yasuo*
You: "Chouko-Chan is always on her best behaviour!" *You smile proudly* "Chouko-Chan is looking forward to visiting her cousin for the first time today!" * You smile at your dad*
*Yasuo returns the smile kindly and the entire women on the train swoon and oar at the site of your father beaming*
*Megumi looks at all the women, emitting some type of dark aura as she does this, and she starts (you think) growling … naturally scaring all of the women, all the women instantly look away… you begin to wonder how on earth she does that…*
*Both you and Yasuo sweat drops.*
Megumi: "Mama is also looking forward to visiting her cousin today. *says to you* Mama was the same age as you when she first meet her cousin, so I thought this was a great time for you to meet your cousin as well. It's been so long since I last saw her! *thinks back contentedly and says gently* So long that we're now both adults with our own lovely families" *Smiles at you and Yasuo*
*Yasuo smiles back at your mum, while you stare at Megumi amazed at her display of affection and family devotion*
You: "C-Chouko-Chan wants to see her cousin even more now!" *Excited* "Mama what is Chouko-Chan's cousin like?"
Megumi: *Warmly* "Well… He's the same age as you, sweet and very cute and looks just like mama's Cousin! *Megumi stops for a moment and ponders* I hear he scares easily though…" *She places her hand under her chin*"I'm sure that's what she said over the phone…"
You: "Ehh? Scares easily?" *You smile mischievously* "Chouko-Chan wants to see her cousin even more now" *You start humming a merry tune*
Megumi: "Hm, Mama is happy to hear about that, but Chouko-Chan makes sure you're on your best behaviour!" *Megumi smiles warningly at you*
You: "Chouko-Chan is always on her best behaviour!" *you also smile back at her*
* You both start to throw hordes of dangerous laughs and smiles at one another… your mother obviously didn't trust what you were telling her and she had every right to suspect you *
Yasuo: *Your father cuts into the conversation clueless- like always* "Papa is also looking forward to seeing mama's family and you know why?"
*Both you and Megumi stop with your dangerous hordes of laughs and smiles. You both look at Yasuo clueless and curious of what he was about to say*
Yasuo: *Kindly* "Cause now Papa's family will grow even more than before" *He smiles at both you and Megumi*
*You both look at Yasuo blankly, before bursting into hordes of loud laughter, everyone on the train, looks at you and your parents*
Megumi: *laughing* (says to you) "Chouko-Chan, Don't you think Papa sounds just like an old man" *Continues laughing*
You: *Laughing* "C-Chouko-Chan thinks dad sounds just like a hermit!"
*Both you and Megumi are laughing hard, people on the train start sniggering and smirking as they stare at Yasuo. Yasuo goes slightly red in the cheeks*
Train: Next stop is Namimori Train Station, This train TERMINATES Here; please take all your belongings with you.
Yasuo: *Embarrassed* "Uh-hum, I hope you both have had your fun, because it's time to get off the train"
*Yasuo gets up, grabs the suitcases and makes his way to the exit- huffing and puffing as he walks off*
*You and Megumi stop laughing and feel slightly bad for embarrassing Yasuo on the train like that, you both hurriedly get off the train, Megumi holds onto your hand as you get off*
Megumi: "Sorry Yasuo, I couldn't help myself. *Yasuo starts to sulk* You really should stop making that face, you shouldn't take that little remark so personally…"
You: "Chouko-Chan didn't mean to laugh Papa!" *You shout after your father as you let go of your mama's hand and run in front of him* "Chouko-Chan is sorry Papa"*you grab onto Yasuo's t-shirt as you say this with your sweetest and cutest voice while making puppy eyes*
That did the trick… you knew your Papa couldn't resist your big amethyst coloured puppy dog eyes and that pout you did with your lips… genius.
Yasuo: *Yasuo looks at you affectionately and bends down to pick you up* "Papa isn't angry, I'm just being silly, so don't make a face like that at Papa, okay?"
You: *Happily* "Okay Papa" *you smile at Yasuo, as he places you down and holds onto your hand gently*
Megumi: "Mama is also sorry" *She says this as she grabs onto Yasuo's shirt she too uses the puppy eyes trick too*
Yasuo: *Yasuo Kisses Megumi on her forehead sweetly* "Papa isn't angry at Mama either" *He says this affectionately as well and holds onto Megumi's hand gently* "Come on let's go, it's even more hotter outside then in that train, how about I buy us all some ice-cream- my treat"
*Both you and Megumi are cheerful about this and you both jump up and down pleased*
Megumi: "I want vanilla flavoured ice-cream!"
You: *You say this excitedly* "Chouko-Chan wants a triple scooped ice-cream- banana, chocolate and vanilla flavoured with sprinkles and strawberry sauce!"
Megumi: *Says this childishly to you* "You'll get fat that way, Chouko-Chan"
You: "Chouko-Chan won't ever get fat! No matter how much ice-cream she eats!" *You say this childishly and proudly as you pout*
Yasuo: (says to you) "If you eat that much ice-cream, you'll have to make up for it in your morning Tai Chi training session with me tomorrow"
You: "Fine! Chouko-Chan accepts your challenge!" *You say this proudly as you raise your hand up in a triumphant fist*
Yasuo: (says to you) "Wow, aren't we the cool one, Papa likes to see that type of determination and confidence!"
*You all start laughing at this remark as you, your Mama and Papa, start to make your way towards your Cousin's house*
Your inner thoughts: I have a feeling that this is going to be a very interesting trip…
