Honoka was with Kotori and Umi at the doctor's office for her checkup. The two older girls did not tell the younger girl that she was going to get a shot because they had a feeling that she would freak out because of needles. They knew that she would do everything in her power to resist going to the doctor's office. They were in the waiting the room and waited for their turn.

Kotori was currently reading a children's book to Honoka. Umi was on the lookout for their name to be called. She hoped that Honoka wouldn't act up in front of the doctor. The last thing she needed was to be embarrassed in front of the doctor.

"Kousaka! You're up next!" A nurse announced

They got up and followed the nurse to an office where Honoka would be checked up. They checked her height and her weight. Both her height and weight were normal for a girl her age. The nurse then checked her blood pressure and it was normal.

"Everything is normal. Please wait and the doctor will be with you shortly" The nurse said

"Thank you" Umi said

As soon as the nurse left Umi turned to Honoka and gave her instructions on what she should do when the doctor comes in.

"Now Honoka, when the doctor comes in make sure that you do everything he tells you" Umi said

"Okay" Honoka said

"And if you're good then you'll get some candy" Kotori said

Honoka's eyes sparkled when candy was mentioned. Normally Umi would object to this but she had to make an acceptation because this was the only way that Honoka would behave.

The doctor came in and looked at the clip board. Kotori and Umi guessed that he was looking at Honoka's vitals. He then looked at Honoka and told her to stay still. She did what the doctor told her and he used his stethoscope to check her heartbeat. He declared that the heart was beating normally. After doing the rest of the tests the doctor told them that he was going to give Honoka a shot.

"I'm give Honoka her shot" The doctor said

Umi and Kotori nodded while Honoka tilted her head in confusion.

"Shot?" Honoka asked

"It's a shot that'll help you stay healthy" Kotori said

The doctor got the shot and pulled the cap off and that's when Honoka saw something that she didn't want to see. It was a needle.

"N-n-needle?" Honoka asked

"It'll be okay, Honoka" Kotori said

Honoka ignored her mother completely and started crying in loud voice.

"I DON'T WANNA A SHOT!" Honoka cried

Honoka tried to get down but she was held down by Umi.

"Honoka! Just let the doctor do his job! It won't hurt! It'll sting but it won't hurt" Umi said

Honoka continued to squirm and tried to escape her other mother's grasp but she failed to get out. She kept crying because she was scared of the needle hurting her. Umi told the doctor to go ahead and give her the shot. The doctor approached the young toddler. Honoka noticed that the doctor was getting closer with the needle in his hand and that cause her to cry even more. The doctor injected the needle into her arm and then took the needle out. Honoka stopped crying because she was surprised that the needle didn't hurt as much as she thought it would.

"See? It wasn't that bad, now was it?" Kotori asked

Honoka just nodded and Kotori got some candy for Honoka at the front desk. She happily took the candy and started to eat it happily. Umi sighed with relief. She was told by the doctor that children crying at the sight of needles was a common thing here.

The next day it was time for Honoka to go to the dentist and Umi knew that Honoka was gonna cry at this one because most children don't like going to the dentist. They were in the waiting room, waiting for their name to be called. Honoka heard all the activity that was going on in the dentist's office. She was already shaking with fear and tried to escape but Umi was able to grab her before she could even make to the exit. Honoka started to cry loudly like she did yesterday at the doctor's office when she saw the needle.

"Honoka, you need to have your teeth checked" Umi said

"NO! DENTEST SCARY!" Honoka cried

"It's okay, Honoka. The dentist is only going check on your teeth and see how healthy they are. He wants to make sure that you don't have any cavities" Kotori said

Honoka continued to cry because she was so scared. While she was crying Umi heard their name being called.

"Kousaka! You're up next!" A nurse called out

Kotori and Umi followed the nurse to an office. Kotori was holding Honoka, who was still bawling her eyes out, and set her down on the chair. Umi had to hold her down to stop her from running away. Kotori tried to bribe Honoka with toys but that didn't work because she was way too scared to listen to anyone. She tried to bribe her again and this time she tried to tell her the same thing except that she tried to make sure that Honoka would hear her.

"Honoka, if you let the dentist examine your teeth then you'll get some toys as a reward for being good" Kotori said

Honoka stopped crying and looked at Kotori with tears in her eyes.

"You promise?" Honoka asked

"I promise" Kotori said

"Kotori! Don't make promises that you can't keep" Umi said

"I'm not! I'm making a promise that I can keep" Kotori said

Umi just sighed and let Kotori do the talking to Honoka.

Honoka held out her hand to Kotori and only had her pink finger out.

"You have to pinky promise" Honoka said

Kotori smiled and held out her pinky finger and grabbed Honoka's. Both of them and shook on it. Kotori then took her pinky finger and crossed her chest with it.

"I promise! Cross my heart and hope to die" Kotori said

When that was done Honoka allowed her teeth to be examined by the dentist and she was done in no time. And just like Kotori promise her, Honoka got a toy and a piece of candy like she was promised. Honoka was happy with her new toy and started to play with it. Umi just sighed and hoped that Honoka wouldn't cause an uproar in the future but she knew that that was wishful thinking.
