Ryou walked up to Ichigo's house and he couldn't help but knock on the door.

"What do you want, Ryou?" Ichigo asked annoyed while opening the door.

"Onee-chan, when are you going to remember my birthday?" Momomiya Ryou asked Momomiya Ichigo.

"Is that what was happening today?" Ichigo asked.

"Hai. And you forgot again, just like my other 11 birthdays." Ryou smirked. "Lapin was the only one that remembered and she's not even in our family.".

"That's just wrong." Ichigo giggled.

"STOP IT!" Ryou said with his teeth clenched, "I'll go to America a year too early.".

"That's just random, besides I don't even want you here any way."

Ryou almost hit his sister but he pulled back his arm.

"I'll tell you when I leave something I wanted to say for 8 years and you might not like it at all." Ryou said as Ichigo closed the door.

Ryou turned around and walked into the forest.

"I'm gonna give up and let it go when I'm in America." Ryou said as he disappeared into the darkness of the forest.

"You should read your book again, Ryou. It gives you a girl's address and her name." a figure said to Ryou.

"Are you sure she's real and where she lives is a real place?" Ryou asked.

"You should go to the cemetery in your book at 12:00 pm on the day after Halloween in three years." the figure said in a way that sounded like he/she smiled.

"I'll try to remember that," Ryou said, "and thanks for your help.".

Ryou walked out of the forest and into the park.

"I better find Shirogane, he might be able to help me." Ryou said walking into Cafe Mew Mew.

"Shirogane." Ryou said thinking about leaving Japan for 6 years.

Shirogane Ryou came up stairs to get something to eat but he found Momomiya Ryou roaming around his house/cafe.

"What are you doing here?" Shirogane asked Momomiya.

"I need to talk to you." Momomiya Ryou said, "It's not your problem but I need your help."

Shirogane looked away and thought about it.

"What is it about, Momomiya Ryou?" Shirogane asked.

"It's about a special pill that I might need when I go to America. It has something to do with this book." Momomiya said taking a book out of his backpack that's title was 'A Thousand Miles' by Apples Onatree.

"Why are you showing me this book?" Shirogane asked.

"It shows you almost what's gonna happen to me when I go to America." Momomiya said.

"You mean you want me to read this book." Shirogane asked.

"Hai, it could save that girls life." Momomiya said, "But I think I might need more than one if it doesn't work the first time."

Shirogane frowned. "Are you going to give me anything in return even though you probably have nothing I want."

"I can always give you my annoying sister Ichigo to work in the cafe again."

"What?"

"You're right she might not want to work for you again unless Purin, Zakuro, Minto, and Retusu work with her."

"What?"

"Ichigo doesn't like me. Everyone forgot my birthday except Lapin and she's not even in my family and she's not one of my friends."

"That's just wrong."

"Ichigo said the same thing." Momomiya looked over at Shirogane who was reading the book he just gave him.

"I hope you get the point of the story." Momomiya Ryou said walking away, "It gives me a reason to leave and save that girl.".

Momomiya walked out of the cafe with sadness leaving all his happiness with Shirogane.
