CHAPTER 3

Ding dong

Mikan stopped putting her toys away and looked up at the front door. 'Hmm…I wonder who it could be?'

"Mikan! Answer the door!"

"Okay grampie."

When she opened the door she saw a pretty lady and the boy she helped earlier. "Hi!" She grabbed Natsume's hand. "Are you okay?" Natsume just looked at her and didn't answer.

"Oh you two already met?"

"Not really. I don't even know his name."

"I see. You can call me Mrs. Hyuuga and this is my boy Natsume.
Is your grandfather home?"

"Ah huh. My name is Mikan Sakura. Come in."

Mikan closed the door behind them. Then she ran upstairs to get her grandpa. Then the grandpa told her, "Why don't you and Natsume go outside while Mrs. Hyuuga and I have a talk?" "Okay grampie. Come on Natsume," she said as she pulled him out of the house with her.

When they got outside Mikan felt a hard shove behind her back. She fell on the grass but something there cut her leg and made her bleed. She looked up and saw Natsume glaring at her with the coldest eyes she has ever seen.

'Don't pretend you want to be my friend,' thought Natsume. He was going to make Mikan pay for what Ruka and Koko did to him.

"Why did you push me?"

"I hate ugly girls! And you are really damn Ugly!"

Mikan opened her mouth in shock. She began to cry. Natsume felt bad but he was still mad at what those guys did to him so he wasn't going to stop.

"What? Oh, are you crying? You are such a baby!"

That made Mikan instantly stop. She stood up. "I'm not a baby!"

"Yes you are!" Natsume yelled back.

Then he yanked on one of her braids and pulled the ivory ribbon out.

"Ow!" She yanked back her hair and then replied, "You're the baby! Who was crying inside my fridge huh?" That made Natsume really mad. He pushed her hard. She fell down and cried really loud. Her grandpa and Mrs. Natsume ran out.

"What happened Mikan?"

Mikan pointed her finger at Natsume. She began to sob again. "He…he—"

"I accidentally made her fall," cut in Natsume. Mikan looked up at Natsume in shock. 'That liar!' she thought. "I'm sorry," said Natsume as he began to bawl. He looked at Mikan with his puppyish eyes.

"I didn't mean to make you fall."

Mrs. Hyuuga held Natsume. "I know you didn't mean to make Mikan fall."

Then her grandpa asked, "Are you okay Mikan?" Kyung Hee looked up and saw Natsume's lips move. "Baby," he said loud enough just for her to hear. Mikan bit her lip. "I'm okay grampie. It was an accident."

"I'm sorry Mr. Sakura but I have to be home and prepare dinner for my husband. It was a pleasure meeting you. Bye Mikan!"

"Bye," said Natsume and he gave Mikan a wave. Mikan watched them as they left. Then she saw Natsume turn around and give her a little smirk. She glared back at him.

'It's war. I'm going to hurt you one of these days Natsume Hyuuga,' she promised herself.

This was the beginning of a NOT so beautiful friendship…
