The girls quietly watched Makoto as she made something to eat. After talking to Shingo, she was a bit on the anxious side and had to do something.
"How did Shingo take it?" Rei asked finally
"As good as can be expected," Makoto said, looking up from her task. "I think he'll get through this. What about Usagi-chan?"
"Mamoru-san's with her now," Minako said.
Ami got up from her seat. "We're going to have to be there for all three of them! Rei-chan, see if you can find Tsukino-san's address book. I don't think any of them are in a condition to inform the rest of the their family."
Rei nodded, and went to check by the telephone.
"Maybe we should start helping with the laundry and dishes too," Minako volunteered, eyeing the pile of laundry in the laundry room.
"Um..." Ami began. "Why don't you sit here and watch Mako-chan. I'll do that!" Before Minako could reply, Ami sat the blonde down and zipped into the laundry room.
"Nani? Don't you want help?" Minako called after her.
"She's fine, Minako-chan," Makoto said with a laugh. "Just sit there. If I need some help I'll know who I can bug."
"Well, can I help you make food, then? I'm sure Usagi-chan will be hungry soon."
Makoto eyed the carrots she was cutting then looked back at Minako. She couldn't be THAT bad at cutting carrots. "Okay, why don't you finish cutting up these carrots for me."
"Hai!" Minako jumped to her feet.
Minako set to work chopping the carrots. After a long time, Makoto came back to check how she was doing.
"Ano..." Makoto stared at the carrot for the longest time. It was so thin you probably couldn't even taste it! "Minako-chan, where's the carrot?"
"Huh? It's right here."
She pointed to the small pieces. "You were making soup, right?"
"Iie, salad."
"Heh heh...oops?"
"That's all right, I'm sure they've got more." Makoto smiled. "Why don't you check on Ami-chan now."
"Okei!" Minako scampered off to find Ami.
"Kami, I hope the man she marries knows how to cook!"
"What was that, Mako-chan?"
"Nothing!" Makoto yelled back.
Minako shook her head. "Need any help, Ami-chan?"
Luckily, Ami had just tossed in a load and wouldn't need to bother it for a while. "I'm good, lets go wait in the kitchen."
