strident knocking were suddenly heard, ichi stood up and answered the door, only to found out that their visitors are more than it seems to be, "this is gonna be a long week," they all thought, as ichi widen the opening of the oak door of mikan and natsume's house. "SURPRISE!" someone shouted. "Hello, mikan, natsume, ruka, hotaru, and youichi," another one greeted.

ë –end of chapter 2-ë

ë –chapter 3: this is going to be a long week-ë

Ichi was very surprise to see who the people at the door are. He stepped back nervously and greeted, "hi! Tita (auntie), tito (uncle),"

as he assisted them inside the house, upon seeing this our brunette quickly threw herself into those people, causing them to be a little

out of balance, the gang then found her crying. "Mom?? Dad?" "I must be dreaming, they told me that they cannot visit me not

until next month!" she thought. "Ehh?!!!" the others said, all of them are stunned. Yes, it was Azumi yuka, mikan's mother,

natsume's mother in law, together with her husband seiji sakura, mikan's dad, and natsume's father-in-law. She has an average height

for her age, has a short brown hair, just like her daughter, her eyes, and is brown too, just like mikan's. In short, she is mikan's older

version, who both has that sweet and warm smile. While his dad is a little taller for his age, has a jet black hair and tan orbs. "Hi tita,

tito, long time no see," greeted hotaru and ruka, as they went closer to them. While the brunette broke the hug. "Oh hi ru-chan and

ruka, long time no see too," yuka said, doing the "cheek kiss" (beso). "How are you?" seiji said, "guess you've been married too

huh?!" he said teasingly, making the couple blush. "Stop it hon! Don't embarrass them," scolded yuka while pinching her husband's

skin. "Itai!" he shouted. "They act just like the bakas (natsu and mikan)" ruka and hotaru thought, resulting into a small chuckle.

"Huwah!!!!!" suoh was wide awake, he was crying himself out. While his sister hanako was still sleeping quietly. "Dad, mom, shhh!!"

scolded mikan, making her parents quiet, and so are the others. "Look what you have done, my suoh is crying, you woke him up"

She leaned a little closer to the crib to lift her dear boy suoh, he was crying all right, and if I say crying, he really is crying himself out.

"There, there suoh, mommy's here, stop crying okay," she said sweetly. Then she started humming a lullaby, which was then turned

into singing, suoh has stopped crying, and is now back to his own dreamland, his face had that comforting facial expression. "mom,

dad, next time you two are gonna fight, can you at least lower your voice down??" mikan scolded once more as she laid her angel

down. "were sorry darling, we didn't mean to," seiji said. "Hmp," she was pouting, as she sat herself next to natsume.

So the formation was like this, (mi-chan, natsu, ru-chan, ruka, seiji, yuka and ichi,) "mikan, its okay, don't make it such a fuss..."

natsume said, as he eyes as his in law's expression. "Oh, sorry, I was just tired, that's all, sorry mom and dad" she said. She stood up

and went straight into the kitchen, followed by hotaru. As natsume and ruka assisted them going up stairs. "Baby, can you look after

them for me pretty please, while I prepare for our lunch," she said to ichi, as she put her wear her apron. "Okay mom!" he replied

gleefully.

"dad, mom, I just wanna say sorry, on how mikan acted a while ago, she's just tired, that's all" he apologized while bowing. "It's

okay, son. It's our fault anyway" seiji said to natsume, who is still feeling guilty. "So here, you can rest for awhile while mikan and ru-

chan is preparing our lunch,", as he put down their bags. "we'll just call you when lunch is ready, suit yourself, if you need something,

just call one of us, okay tita, tito?" the boys said. The two nodded as natsume and ruka closed their door.

ë –downstairs-ë

"Mikan… Don't you think you went a lil over board?" " I mean, didn't you see the look on their face?" a girl with jet black hair and

mauve orbs said. "..." "Mikan," she called once more. "Huh?" she replied, snapping back into reality. "I said, don't you went a little

over board with scolding them? Didn't you saw their expressions?" she repeated once more. "I-I-I dint meant o, I was just

frustrated,and tired." She said. "Whatever," while stirring the stew.

The day was coming to an end , they whole day was quiet, it's 3 pm. natsume and mikan talked about decking every night to take care of their twins, hotaru and ruka both decided to stay their for the night (because mikan insisted) youichi, didn't come to his rendezvous (I wonder who is he gonna meet). after all that talking and chit chatting, she went upstairs to her room, to have her warm relaxing shower, natsume went upstairs too. Hotaru and ruka looked after the twins, youichi was watching his favorite TV show, and mr and mrs sakura are still sleeping.

ë –mikan and natsume's room-ë

They still haven't said a word to each other ever since he scolded her wife before and guilt is now killing him, 'coz he cannot stand his

wife's silence. "is she angry with me? For scolding her?" he thought. "mi-chi…" he called gently, she faced him and gave him a

questioning look. "huh?" her russet eyes were fixed at him, she was looking at his crimson orbs. "nothing," he replied "Im just gonna

have my shower, okay?" she said, as she headed to the bathroom. "okay then" as he laid down his left arm placed on top of his

forehead. "did "he" manage to clear all of his thoughts and feelings about mi-chi? do I need to tell him that I know that "he" has

feelings for mi-chi?" these questions were flowing into his mind, he was also sleepy so while thinking about this questions and their

possible answers, he fell asleep. After having a hot, relaxing shower, she went out of the bathroom, the steam form her shower

disappearedquickly, revealing her body which is only wrapped by a pink towel. She headed towards her "big room size" closet to

pick her outfit. After that, she changed and went out. She was about to sleep when she found natsume lying into their queen size bed, sleeping.

He was only wearing a white t-shirt and a pair of pants. "he looks like a child, so cute and harmless" she thought. She threw

herself gently into his one open arm and let herself fell asleep in that position. After two whole hours of trips to dreamland, the fire

caster woke up, "oh, I fell asleep" he muttered to himself, as he felt something hard into his arm. He looked at it carefully, it was

mikan's head. She fell asleep beside him, her head placed into his strong and well built arm. He gently lifted her head and placed into

a soft pillow "damn, she a heavy sleeper" he whispered to himself. After that he placed a kiss on her soft, red lips. It was a short

yet gentle kiss. He was about to sat up when a hand grabbed him, causing him to lay down again. "mi-chi, let go of me, I gotta take a

shower." He said as he faced her wife. She didn't let go of him, he eyed her carefully, she was still sleeping, she is sleep talking "nat-

natsume, do-don't leave me," she said pleadingly, her voice was stammering, her calm eyes which are closed are flowing with hot

prickling tears. She is having a nightmare. Natsume was shaking her but she didn't even wake up. "mi-chi!!!!" he shouted. Slowly, her

russet eyes are opening, her vision was still blurred but she quickly threw herself into natsume, she continued crying and was

embracing his tightly. She keeps on saying "natsume don't leave me," even thought she is widely awake. "mi-chi, I'm here, I wont

leave you," said the worried natsume as he calmed her wife down. She still is crying, and minutes after she is hiccupping, as time

passed, her sobs became lighter every minute until she had stopped crying. "what is your dream about?" he asked worriedly. "it's

about something. yeah, you were on a business trip and you rode a plane, then after your trip, you were about to go home when your

airplane crushed. Then the plane company called me then they told me that your airplane crushed and all of you passengers were

dead." she explained. "its okay now, it won't happen," he said. Then she hug her and calmed her down again, he stood up but then

mikan hugged him from behind and whispered something into his ear "promise me that you wont leave me okay?" her voice was

sweet but faint. He headed himself to the bathroom, he took a bath leaving his wife at the bed, all sat up, her face was blank and

sweating. She stood up, grabbed the remote, and went back to her bed. She turned on the TV and watched, she waited until her

husband went out from the bathroom, after having that nightmare she didn't want to leave him. Thirty minutes quickly passed, and he

went out from the bathroom half naked. She glanced at him and continued watching TV. "why are you still here?" he asked while

getting dressed. "I don't wanna leave you". After dressing himself, they went downstairs, and they found ruka, hotaru, youichi, mr and

mrs sakura their. They are all playing with the wins, "no! she looks like mommy!" the couple heard youichi objected. "what are they

talking 'bout?" the couple said to each other as they made it downstairs. "what are you guys talking about?" natsume asked, "WHO

DOES THEY LOOK LIKE!!!!" they all said in unison, making mikan and natsume sweat dropped. "hehehehehe" they chuckled

nervously.

ë –dinner time-ë

Every body was silent, no body dared to talk or to break the ice cold SILENCE Not until..."uhm, so, tita, how was your trip?" ichi

asked, trying to lower the intense atmosphere. Yuka looked at him, and smiled "its okay dear, but it really is tiring," she replied and

continue eating. "oh, I see, up to when do you plan to stay in here?" he asked again "uhm, maybe for a week" she replied again with

the same facial expression she was carrying before. "tita," hotaru called "what dear?" "Nothing" she was smiling. and then her cell phone rang "excuse me guys," she stood up, put the table napkin into her chair and headed into the terrace, as she

slid the glass door, she answered her phone. "Moshi, moshi?" she said, as she arranged her jet black hair which is being played by the

cold, gusting air outside. "ne, hotaru-chan," a girly, high pitch tone replied. "what do you want anna?" she replied frigidly. "is it true

that mikan chan gave birth already?" another high pitch tone voice shouted behind the other line "anna, tell nonoko that she did, and

she just came out from the hospital today." Callously she replied again "nonoko!! She gave birth last night!" hotaru heard anna

screamed "idiot! Did I told you to shout?!" she said to her irritably "my ears are bleeding!" she continued getting more and more

aggravated by the minute. "gomene, hotaru chan" anna said "hn," anyway, can we talk to mikan?" she said beseechingly. "one, no,

because she is eating with tita and tito, two, you can't cause she is grumpy right now and three, why don't you just go in here, and

visit her family," "oh- okay then, we'll just go there if we all have our free time," she said "hn." "okay then, bye hotaru!" anna said

"bye ru-chan!" she heard nonoko's ear bleeding voice once again. "okay then!" hotaru said, "oh, before we forgot, just say hi to

mikan okie?! We'll just talk to you next time then!" bye!" the twins said (anna and nonoko). Then the other line was dead. "they

didn't even let me say farewell, tch" as she put her cell phone back into her pocket.

The air was still blowing freely, still playing with her soft jet black hair. She slid the glass door once more as she headed back inside.

She then closed it as soon as she made it back inside to prevent the cold air to rush inside the house. Her hair was in a messy style. In

addition, she was arranging it as she head back into the dinning table. "ruri, what happened to you?" ruka asked worriedly as he saw

his wife getting near them "Im fine dear," she said replied impassively. "are you sure?" she nodded in agreement as sat herself once

more near ruka. they continue eating, they all finished quietly, and mikan washed the dishes with the help of youichi. Natsume cleaned

the table, hotaru and ruka are watching over the twins and mikan's parents are watching TV. The first night of mikan's parents in their

daughter's house was silent, very silent. What they did the whole day was to chit chat with them (except mikan), play with their

grandchildren and to debate whom do the twins look like. "tomorrow will be another long day…" natsume said to his wife, as he let

himself fall asleep...
