" Ru-chan is very late... ohh.. there she is" Chise said as she saw a glimpse of her friend

" *panting* finally Im here.. *panting* Sorry for being late" Rumina said

" I think its okay.. want to rest for a while? " Chise said

" Sure.. thanks" Rumina replied

Then the two sit on the bench for awhile. Then there they saw some Seigaku tennis players.

" Ru-chan want to take a look on your childhood friend?" Chise said

" Chise chan.. *sigh* You ask me to help you on your homework right?" Rumina replied

" err.. yes?.. okay.. we will not going to look on your childhood friend.. you seems so scary when you said those words to me" Chise said while she pouted

" err? sorry about that.. * she stand up * lets go now" Rumina said

" wait Ru-chan.. you wont get angry if I said that we will watch the practice of the seigaku regulars right" Chise said

" *sight* you will never stop pestering me" Rumina said

" ohh please Ru-chan.. Its so unfair that you can go with them whenever you want *pouted* " Chise said

" hai..hai.. *smile at Chise*.. I will never refuse such a cute friend " Rumina said then she pinch her friend's cheeks.

"whaa.. dont pinch me Ru-chan" Chise demanded..

The Chinese girl just smiled at her friend.
