Moon: Hello everyone, today I have Rein with me! Rein, please tell me how you feel about your character in this story.

Rein: I feel like I'm the caring but useless person who can only worry.

Moon: Yes, everyone is useless, including Shade.

Shade: How many times are you going to insult me?

Rein: This tea is so nice, Moon!(Sips tea)

Moon: Thank you. Now, good readers you know I don't own FushigiBoshi No FutagoHime. Please enjoy.

Shade: What is wrong with you?

Moon: Think of some new gags Shade, that's getting old.

Shade's POV

"Fine, what has your old school been teaching you?" I asked her as I was tutoring her during lunch and she was redoing the same problem for the 5th time. "This lesson was suppose to be easy, since it uses the same terminology as a lesson from before break, unless your school was really an elementary school, instead of a high school, were you just not good with school?"

Fine stopped trying to figure out the problem then quickly wrote something that read: Shade, you're mean. I did listen and I did do pretty well at my last school. I told you, my school's just a little slower in the pace. It's still a pretty good school though.

"Why didn't you chose a different school then?" She didn't write anything and just stared blanklessly at her pencil. Okay, that definitely wasn't the right thing to say. Now what do I do?

Her hand was shaking as she put her pencil on the paper. It was a little messy, but I could still read it properly. Mom was really busy, with a bunch of stuff, so I didn't want to bug her and I just chose a school that didn't have high tuition fees that was close to home. I thought it was a pretty good decision at the time.

I watched her for a second. I could see fear in her eyes as she trembled slightly in her seat. "Do you still not want to tell me anything about your mom, Eli-san?"

She thought about to for a moment as she gently tapped her pencil, then quickly wrote: It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that I still can't. I promise that I'll tell you one day with my own voice, every part of my story. I'm still sorry, to drag your family into this, when you don't even know that much about me or mom.

"It's fine, you shouldn't be worrying about this stuff right now, just focus on what's going on now." Besides, I probably shouldn't have said that either... She still looks depressed. "Hey, since you still have some trouble with this stuff, why don't I just give you my notes from before? I don't need them anymore, so it should be fine and it'll help you a lot with the classes and for the high school entrance exam." She perked up a little and nodded. "Great, then when we get home, I can give you the notes."

Then in exchange, I'll try to help out around the house more. ^_^

"You don't need to worry about that," I said. Dad will probably be even more worried about her if she does, since she refuses to go to the hospital for a check up. I don't know anything about all those bruises either. Then Rein looks like she knows and doesn't want to say anything, or she doesn't know anything.

But I want to help, or is there something wrong with that? She was holding up her notebook giving me those puppy dog like eyes. Try to not to give in, try not to give in. Remember the time where Milky used this trick on you and it coasted you about 12000 yen of sweets. Now thinking about it, maybe I spoiled her a little too much when she was younger while I was giving into her? But no matter what I thought, the eyes were too powerful.

"There's no problem with that," I said giving in. Dad will just have to deal with it then. Will I never be able to win aganist those eyes?

Fine tapped my arm and I looked up to read: Shade, your depleting form is funny. Can I take pictures with my phone and show them to Rein? Then upload them online?

"No you can't take any pictures or show anyone. What's that suppose to mean anyways?" She started to laugh just a little. I want to get mad at her... But somehow I can't get angry at her, because this is the first time, that I've heard her actually laughing. It was like music, simply beautiful. "This is the first time I've seen you like this, Fine." It looked like she suddenly realized where she was and stopped.

That must have been a little annoying. Sorry about that. ^_^" She acts almost as if she hasn't able to laugh, with all her heart for a long time. She held up her notebook that had messy writing: We have to get back to work don't we? There's a bunch of other stuff that I don't understand either, remember?

"Yeah, right... so should we go to English, Japanese literature, or biology?" I asked. Yeah, I've got my work cut out for me don't I? But the more I tutor her, the more review I got, so it should benefit me too. "There's a lot that you need to improve in, so which one do you want to go over first?"

She smiled as she held up the notebook. You chose. They all sound just fine to me. ^_^~ I smiled slightly back at her. What she said before, really was true. I can't understand her personality at all, but instead of getting irritated like I would normally expect, I'm getting even more interested in her. I want to find out more about her, I don't understand... what's with this curiosity? There's nothing wrong with it, but why do I want to know so much about her?

Normal POV

Isn't this becoming a nice development? Eventually they will realize that they should become more than just friends in time. But fate has many things planned out to test them, in order to see if they are a fitting pair. Then, once more there's a girl watching. This time she has her phone. With all of the relationships that she has, she could easily crush Fine in her current state. When will she let all of her anger out? It's only a matter of time, let's see if she can stop this all, or just fall further into her heart's darkness.

Meanwhile, there's another person, watching both parties. She twirled a pocky stick in her fingers. As she bit into the pocky, she said, "I feel sorry for both of them."
