Chapter Three: In which I take a walk
The river wasn't very exciting, but I waited patiently while Chiriko danced around it in excitement. "Look Miaka! It's flowing!" I walked over to where he was standing. "Oh my…" I said, bored. "Why don't you jump in?" Chiriko looked at me curiously. "Nuriko said that the river is dangerous and I shouldn't jump in ever." I frowned. "Do you always do what Nuriko says?" He brightened "Of course! I wanna be just like Nuriko when I grow up!" I smiled malevolently to myself, this could really work to my advantage! If I could make Nuriko hate the kid, then he would suffer eternally! Looking at Chiriko, watching the water so innocently, I almost doubted that I could really do it…but I had to! It was my duty! "Are you alright?" Chiriko asked? I jumped, startled out of my winner's pose. He looked at me with his big puppy eyes. I shoved him back. "Of course. Wanna go to the park?" Chiriko nodded, and we proceeded, the boy a step ahead of me. (I had no idea where the park was) "So Chiriko, you want to be like Nuriko?" he nodded proudly. "Gay and all?" he frowned. "What's that?" I looked at his curious young face in awe. Wasn't he supposed to be smart??? "You really don't know?" I asked. He shook his head. I frowned. How could I explain that? "Sit down Chiriko, have I got news for you!" Chiriko looked around. "There's no bench," he said. I face faulted. (-_-) After a few more minutes of walking, we sat down on a bench under a tree in the park, which was really just the emperor's garden. "Ok Chiriko. You know how most of the time girls like boys and boys like girls?" he nodded. This was reasonable. "Well," I said. "That isn't always the case." He looked at me blankly. I continued. "Sometimes a person will have different preferences and like the same kind of people as them." He stared. "Like you and Tamahome?"
"NO!" I sighed. "Take Nuriko for instance. Nuriko is a boy, right?" the little boy frowned. "I don't know." My patience was wearing thin. "Yes, he is a boy."
"But not always" He answered wisely.
"Yes always! NURIKO IS A BOY!" Chiriko frowned in thought. "He doesn't look like a boy." I glared at him.
"Neither do you." Chiriko puckered out his bottom lip and his eyes began to grow in size. I scooted away from him on the bench-"WWWAAAAHHHHHH!!!" he cried. Tears streamed from his face. I groaned. "You only look like a boy sometimes"
"Like Nuriko?" The kid's tears were dried instantly at the comparison to his role model.
"Yes" My mind was forming a plan. An evil plan…"Hey Chiriko, if you really want to be like Nuriko, you should follow him around." (I'm not sure what I was trying to accomplish with that suggestion, but whatever) Chiriko gasped. "Really?" He said it with such enthusiasm I was surprised. "Will that make me like Nuriko?"
"Of course it will. Follow him around, dress like him, eat next to him, sleep next to him."
"Will he mind?"
"I don't know, Chiriko, why don't you go ask him?" Chiriko was practically squirming with excitement at this new idea. We headed back to the palace in the last of the daylight. I had to find Tasuki and Tamahome.
