"Ah! Finally, tomorrow, we're gonna be fourth graders!" shouted Miruchi.

"Yeah, that's right," said Yuka.

"Ah! You guys wanna come over to my house for a sleepover?" asked Chiyo.

"I've always wanted to see your house!" said Miruchi.

"We gotta ask our parents first though," said Yuka.

"How about you call my house at about one o'clock guys?" requested Chiyo.

"Sure!" said the two in unison.

The three girls went in their separate ways. At home, Chiyo looked at the clock. It read 12:05.

"Mom? Dad?" called Chiyo, searching for her parents.

Chiyo found a note stating that they would not be back until three o'clock. Therefore, Chiyo decided to make lunch. However, there was hardly anything in the refrigerator. Chiyo first fed Tadakichi and then went out to buy something to eat.

"Oh no! It's already 1:30," panicked Chiyo, at home.

Chiyo then realized something obvious. She went over to her phone and pressed "messages". There were two new messages.

"Hi, this is Yuka! Well, Chiyo, I can go!"

The second said, "Hi, this is Mr. Sato, the principal of your child's school. I would like to say that the new school year will begin tomorrow. Thank you!"

Chiyo immediately searched for Yuka's number in the digital list of the people who dialed to tell her that she could come at 2:30. Yuka agreed. However, Chiyo had lost both Yuka and Miruchi's number, so she would not be able to call Miruchi. Chiyo dialed Yuka's number again, in a bit of a panic, asking her if she knew what Miruchi's number was.

"Now that you mention it, I forgot it too," said Yuka.

"Um…what should I do what should I do…Ah! How about we go to Miruchi's house?" suggested Chiyo.

"Good idea!" responded Yuka.

Chiyo walked over to Yuka's house. The two then proceeded to go to Miruchi's house. Ding Dong! The doorbell rang at Miruchi's house. No one responded. Yuka, rather impatient and brash, decided to keep on ringing the doorbell. Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong!

"Um…Yuka, I think you should stop that…" said Chiyo.

"Yeah…we should try something different…" said Yuka.

"What? No-"

Yuka started pounding on the door repeatedly. Finally, Miruchi opened the door.

"Man I hate your personality Yuka!" said Miruchi.

"Deal with it," answered Yuka.

"Oh yeah, what brings you two here?" asked Miruchi.

"Well I said yes and you didn't answer so…" explained Yuka.

"...we went to your house to ask for your answer," finished Chiyo.

"Yeah, but why did you come to my house to get my answer?" asked Miruchi, "By the way, I'm going."

"Yea…um…right…" mumbled to two girls.

"Anyway, why didn't you call?" asked Chiyo.

"Yea…um…right…"mumbled Miruchi, "That's because after lunch, my parents had to go somewhere and I snoozed off a bit…"

"I said 2:30 to Yuka, but we can go to my house right now if you want!" said Chiyo.

"Okay, let's go!" exclaimed Miruchi.

Chiyo arrived at her house.

"Holy sh-" said Yuka.

The two girls looked at Yuka with glaring eyes.

"Oh yeah…elementary school girls don't use profanity…"

"But I understand Yuka's feelings," said Miruchi, "This house is humungous. I didn't know you were wealthy Chiyo."

"Ah no! It's nothing really," said Chiyo.

The girls walked past the gates and into Mihama property. Tadakichi immediately appeared and "attacked" Chiyo.

"Oh my god!" shouted Yuka, "That big thing just Chiyo!"

"Oh, my dog!" answered Chiyo.

"He's kinda cute despite his huge size," said Miruchi.

"Don't touch that thing Miruchi! It might bite!" screamed Yuka.

"Nah, Tadakichi doesn't bite at all. He's a gentleman. Or gentledog," said Chiyo.

Miruchi touched Tadakichi. He didn't bite, growl, or threaten Miruchi.

"Nice dog," said Miruchi.

"Thanks!" said Chiyo happily.

The three entered the actual house. Miruchi and Yuka were amazed by how big and nice the house was.

"It looks bigger inside!" said the two in unison.

The two amazed girls followed Chiyo as she walked around the house.

"Man you're so rich!" said Yuka.

"Yeah, but it's amazing how you're not a spoiled snobby girl or anything!" said Miruchi.

"Heh, heh, it's nothing really…" said Chiyo.

"We're home!" yelled a voice.

"Ah! Mother and Father are back!" said Chiyo.

"So you brought some friends I see," said Chiyo's mother.

"Hello Chiyo's parents-sama," exclaimed Yuka and Miruchi.

"Those are the two sleeping over today right?" asked Chiyo's dad.

"Yes!" exclaimed Chiyo.

In Chiyo's room, the three girls happily talked about what would happen in fourth grade.

"I think I'm too short for a fourth grader…" cried Chiyo.

"Looks like it," said Yuka.

"Chiyo, how tall are you anyway?" asked Miruchi.

"Um… about 127 centimeters," said Chiyo.

"Wow, my mom told me that an average fourth grader should be about 135 centimeters," said Miruchi.

"How tall are you guys?" asked Chiyo.

"I'm 134," said Miruchi, "Just one centimeter until I get to the average!"

"I'm 135," said Yuka.

"I knew it…I am short…" grumbled Chiyo.

"But at least you're cute… heh heh…" said Miruchi.

"But I think being cool is better!" declared Chiyo.

"Um…right…" said Yuka and Miruchi.

The three girls continuously talked on and on for a few hours, until dinnertime came. At about 9:12, the three went to sleep. Yuka had refused to go to sleep so early, since she always went to sleep at about ten o'clock, but after lying down, she instantly fell asleep…
