Tohru's Curse

Chapter 11:

True Friends

It had been a few days since Tohru had changed back, and Hatori had insisted on keeping her in bed, she still was sick after all.

"Aaachhoooo!" sneezed Tohru as she lay in bed, "It's just a silly cold I'll get over it soon." Said Tohru confidently.

"I'm not so sure about that, it seems you have the flu, but if you stay in bed you should be healthy before school starts." Said Hatori as a doctor. Then as a friend, "Tohru take care of yourself and just get better." He said with a smile.

The Flu! Oh no what am I going to do. Hatori did say that I should be better before school starts, I sure do hope so, or my promise to mom might be broken. I guess I'll just have to stay in bed.

"Soooo, how is she doctor?" asked Shigure with his normal goofy smile.

"Fine, I told her she has the flu so that she should stay in bed, but she is almost better. By tomorrow morning she should be moving again, but I want her to stay put for a while, you know, with the curse and all." Explained Hatori without any expression on his face.

"Oh okay." Shigure said with his strait concerned face.

"Hello?" Uo asked as she stepped into Shigure's House, "Is anybody home?"

"Huh, oh hi come on in," said Shigure seeing who it was.

Hatori who was waking down the stairs sensed trouble, they were here for Tohru, they would hug her and we don't know yet is she is going to change with contact.

"Uh, if you are here for Tohru, she is out at the store." Said Hatori.

"Oh, then we can wait, if it is okay with you." Said Hana.

No it is not okay but we can't say no, not to you. They both had heard about the lead pipe, and the exotic waves.

"Uh, yah about that, Tohru was going to go with Kyo somewhere after that." Explained Shigure trying to sound convincing.

"What about the groceries then?" asked Hana sensing some fear in the two men's eyes.

"Yuki is bringing them home." Said Kureno walking towards the group. He had arrived earlier to see how Tohru was doing, surprised to find her in a human looking form.

Uo stood there in amazement, it was him, it really was him. Seeing Kureno totally made her forget about everything else. Kureno sensing that Hatori and Shigure were trying to get them to leave said, "How about I take you two out for some lunch, I know I'm starving. Uo, not wanting to let down the offer decided for her and Hana to go.

They two girls walked out the door, when Kureno turned around to see the men thanking him, he smiled with pleasure.

Tohru was finally aloud out of bed, it had seemed ages since they really saw her walking, not sick, and not some smelly thing, that they didn't know what it was. School would be starting in a few days and Tohru's friends were anxious to get together. Finally they all decided on a day to go out together for a picnic at Kyoko's Grave. Tohru had packed a fabulous lunch that day, and made a little extra for mom, she made sure to make her favorites. Once the three girls were settled Tohru opened up the picnic basket. The thing was crammed full of all assortments of foods.

"Tohru you always make food that is fit for a king!" said Uo happily eating up the delicious food.

"Yes, Tohru, it is very good, thank you." Hana said with a smile across her face that was only given to her family and friends.

"I'm glad that you like it, I even made a bit extra for mom." Said Tohru cheerfully.

Kyoko after comforting Kyo's mom a bit longer had left for her own home to see what was happening to Tohru. She was happy to see her normal again when she noticed that she was at her grave, and there was an extra place setting. She watched for a while and noticed that there wasn't anybody else with them, and she figured that maybe Tohru had set up the place for her. She realized that Tohru loved her so much, and she still felt guilt inside for leaving Tohru as an orphan. But Tohru found a new home one filled with her new family and she was happy. Kyoko then decided that it was time, time to show her face to her daughter. She walked outside and went down to earth.

Its longer but not really that long, I've got to make them longer, it's just that I wanted it to end with a kind of suspense thing.
