This is the worst day of my life! Why did my mom and dad let another family live in this house?! I hear there's another girl and she's gonna want to play my toys and I don't want to share anything! Ren angrily thought as he stomped in the backyard.
Sniff, sniff, what is that noise, Ren thought as he was wondering at his backyard, is someone crying? Ren looked around and started walking towards the cries and stopped at his garden maze. It seems like the person crying is in here, he thought as he entered the maze. He kept going through the small maze, only using the cries as a guide and finally, he saw her. A girl with pigtails crouching down on her knees, with her hands covering her face. Ren wondered if she is the girl that's gonna live with them.
"Why are you crying?" Ren asked. The little girl looked up at him with her big brown eyes. She is kinda cute, I wanna protect her now, Ren thought.
"Because…because mother yelled at me" the little girl sniffed.
"Why did your mother yell at you?" Ren asked, patting her head. The little girl found that to be comforting, like a big brother comforting a little sister.
"Because I accidentally knocked over a vase in the house," the girl cried, "what should I do? The flowers in vase looked really pretty and I just wanted to look at the flowers, but I accidentally knocked it over! And my mother yelled at me!"
"OOOh, so you're the one who knocked over the 3,000 dollars vase that my parents bought me as a birthday gift," Ren said.
"It was your birthday gift and it's 3,000 dollars?! What should I do?! I can't make money! I am only 4!" the little girl exclaimed
Ren laughed, "it's okay. I'm only 7 and I don't care about that vase. I'll talk to my parents and make sure your mother won't get in trouble."
"Really? You promise?" The girl asked, holding out a pinky finger.
"I promise," Ren said and pinky promised her, "my name is Ren, what's your name?"
"My name is Kyoko"
"Kyoko?"
"Tokyo's Kyo and Ko from Kodomo. My mother named me that because it reminds her of Japan, but I like my name because nobody else has that name!" KoKo exclaimed.
"True. Who is your mom and what does she do?" Ren asked
"My mom works for Love Me Enterprises, I think she said she's a secret person or something, and she said we will be living there now." KoKo said, pointing to the mansion, "I never saw a house that big before and it is so beautiful!"
Ren laughed, "Guess what Kyoko, that's my house! So you will be living with me and my mom and dad. Let's be friends Kyoko!" Ren exclaimed and held out his hand.
"Yay! We're friends!" Kyoko exclaimed and shook his hand, "I never really had any friends before because my mom and I moved around a lot."
"Kyoko, do you wanna see something really cool?"
"Yes!" Kyoko jumped up and looking at Ren with big sparkly eyes, hoping to see something magical. Ren started to walk to the other side of the garden, his back facing Kyoko and jumped, doing three backflips. To Kyoko, it looked liked Ren was a fairy, flying through the air.
"That was magical Ren! You must be a fairy in disguise! Do it again!" Kyoko exclaimed and clapped. That was when Ren knew that Kyoko's smile would be his forever.
