Ritsu Goes Green

Ritsu walked over to the cupboard to get a banana. Ritsu likes bananas. He likes them good. However, when he opened the door, he was greeted by an unpleasant surprise.All of his bananas have turned brown! His bananas have become brown, the most dislikable color a banana could be!

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!1111 MY PRECIOUS BANANAS HAVE BROWNED! THIS IS ALL MY FAULT! I AM SORRY FRUITS GROWERS, I HAVE PUT ALL OF YOUR HARD WORK TO SHAME!! SHAME! IF I HAD TAKEN MORE CARE OF THEM, THEY WOULD NOT HAVE BECOME SO UNPLEASANT! I'M SOOOOOOOOO SORRY!" He ran all around the kitchen yelling at him self, until a banana was thrown at his side. He fell with a whimper. All of a sudden, Ayame ran into the kitchen.

"Oh, my poor Ritsu, what is the problem? What has made my poor cousin fret so much? Please, allow me to be of assistance." He flamed.

"Oh, Ayame-nii, it's nothing. Only, all of my bananas have become brown. What should I do in order to prevent my fruit from become this color? Oh, its horrible. What should I do? How can I prevent this terror that has strucken this hot spring?"

"Ne pas inqui?er. C'est tout bon! My dear Ri-chan, everything will be alright. For I have with me the greatest invention ever! Ritsu, please direct your attention to the product I have in my left hand." He held up a green, transparent bag. "Observe the Debbie Meyer Green Bag! It will preserve all of your fruits and vegetables for a long time!" Ritsu stared in wonder and awe at the brilliant invention put in front of him. He went to touch it, but Aaya pulled it away. "But wait, I have more!" He exclaimed. "If you buy this on bag at the price of five hundred Yen, I will give you this larger bag for free! Plus, if you buy ten small bags for the price of one thousand five hundred Yen, I will give you ten large bags free! So, are you interested?"

"Um...alright. I'll take ten. small bags, and collect the ten large bags for free. Here's the payment." He handed him the money. Aaya handed him the bags.

"Ah, C'est formidable!!!" He said. "Now, let us go get some bananas. We really need some to fill the bags." Then, they walked down the street. All of a sudden, Ritsu thought of a question to ask his role model.

"Aaya-nii, how did you get a job selling those bags?" He asked. Aaya just laughed.

"Well, my dear cousin, I got this job after I discovered that if I worked here for a year or two, I would be able to afford multiple meters, maybe even kilometers, of material for my store. Plus, I wanted to work for an American company. Isn't that great?"


A/N: Wasn't that great? I wrote it in about an hour. The idea just came to me one day. Thanks for reading.
