Chapter 1: What Are You Doing This Summer?

"Hello, everyone," Momoko said as she walked into the maho-dou.

"Hi, Momo-chan!"

It was a normal summer day as everyone was at the maho-dou talking about summer break.

"So what are you guys going to do during summer break", Doremi asked.

Well", Aiko answered, I'm really gonna be here workin', but I also wanna spend time with my dad, and maybe visit my mom."

'Doremi-chan and I will be working here all summer", Hadzuki said.

"Yeah, and we're going to have lots of fun with Hana-chan", Doremi added.

Hana stood up and danced around the shop and sang," Fun, Fun, Fun!"

The girls thought she was adorable," Hana-chan, kawaii!"

"Oh yeah, Onpu remembered, "My mom told me we're going to America to do some filming for a new movie."

"Really? That's great!"

"Thanks."

"Oh, and speaking of America", Momoko replied,' My dad has a few business meetings in New York and he wants my mom and me to go with him."

"That's awesome, Momo-chan! I bet you're excited", Hadzuki replied.

"Yeah, I am. It'll feel great to be back in New York. I miss the neighborhood' and I also miss Beth, Kenny and-"

Hana noticed Momoko, " Momo's face is red. Red, Red, Red, Red."

"Hana-chan, stop that, You're embarrassing me". Momoko looked down, trying to hide her face.

"Momo-chan, is everything okay", Doremi asked slyly.

"What's wrong", Hadzuki asked.

"N-nothing. It's nothing, Momoko shook her head.

"It's a boy, isn't it", Onpu stated.

"How do ya know, Onpu-chan", Aiko asked.

"I have my ways", Onpu smiled, "Plus, her face says it all."

The girls all crowded around Momoko.

"Okay, you got me", she admitted," His name is Davis..."

BEGINNING OF FLASHBACK

I was helping Majo Monroe in New York.

Momoko was about 7 1/2 years old. She was on a ladder putting some ingredients away.

Majo Monroe heard a knock at the door and went to open it. When she opened the door.

She met a boy Momo's age with brown hair, a bright blue short sleeve hoodie over

a long sleeve, and tan shorts.

"Oh, hello, Davis," Majo Monroe said. "How are you today?"

"I'm fine, thank you."

Suddenly, they heard a scream, and they both ran into the kitchen.

The ladder started to tip and lean from side to side. I was losing my balance

and was scared. Suddenly, I felt someone grab hold of the ladder, straightening it for me.

The sudden movement of the ladder caued me to lose my balance and fell. I closed my eyes and waited for the impact, but it never came.

I opeened my eyes and saw a boy holding me.

"Are you okay?" he asks.

"Yes, I'm fine. Thank you."

David lets her go and introduces himself.

"By the way, my name is Davis."

"Oh, hello, Davis," Momoko smiles. "My name is Momoko."

They shook hands.

END OF FLASHBACK

"...After that, he started hanging out with me, Beth, and Kenny.

It always seemed more fun with him around. Even beth and Kenny thought so."

Momoko looked in attempts of hiding her blush.

"Awwwww! Momo - chan, that's so cute," Doremi said.

"I have to admit, Aiko said. "That is cute. You should tell him when you see him."

"Tell him what, Ai-chan," Momoko asked, though she already knew what Aiko meant.

"Tell him how you feel," Onpu answered.

"Yeah, I think you would feel better if you told him," Hadzuki added.

It wasn't the kind of situation where Momoko was afraid he wouldn't like her.

She knew his feelings for her. She just wanted to hear the words from him.

"IDIOTS!"

Majo Rika came down the stairs upset.

"You girls should be busy cleaning. Not telling love stories!"

Doremi crossed her arms, "Majo Rika, why must you be so mean?"

"GET BACK TO WORK!"

"Okay", The girls all got back to work.

"So, when are you and Momo-chan leaving," Aiko asked Onpu.

"Well. I'll be leaving in Four days", Onpu answered.

"Really, Me too," Onpu replied.

"OK," Doremi replied, "How long do you think you're going to be gone?"

"About three to four weeks," the two girls answered in unison.

They looked at each other, then laughed. The others giggled.

"Well, just make sure you come and say good-bye," Doremi said.

"Alright"

"If you girls don't get back to work, I'll take away your flying privileges,"
Majo Rika shouted.

"Alright, Alright. We're working," the girls all rolled their eyes as they continued working.
