****

It all felt like a dream..



Last night was..



Simply..



Perfect.

"Where were you last night?" Yanagi and Recca asked us the following day.

"Umm..." Fuuko glanced at me, then answered, "Uh..Mi-chan and I didn't feel like going."

"So what did you do instead?" Recca asked.

"Uh.." We looked at each other.

"Well?"

I quickly thought of an excuse. "We, uh, decided to..uh, stay at...home!"

"Uh yeah! We stayed at home!" Fuuko nodded.

Recca and Yanagi raised their eyebrows and looked at each other.

"Okay.."

"If you say so.."

(TV) "Why, Ricardo? Why?" "I'm sorry, Maria!"

"There's nothing on TV except corny soap operas!" Domon exclaimed.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

DING DONG!

"Who could that be?" Yanagi asked.

Fuuko stood up and started walking towards the door. "Probably my mom."

She unlocked the door and opened it. And there was her mom.

"Hello, Fuuko dear!" she said. She put down her bag and kissed Fuuko on the cheek. "Hello, everyone!"

"Good evening, Mrs. Kirisawa!" we all greeted her in unison.

"Why so early?" Fuuko asked.

"For a change, you know.." her mother smiled slightly. "Anyway, I need to talk to you about something in the kitchen."

Fuuko glanced at us then turned to her mother. "Uh..okay..."





Half an hour passed until Fuuko came back to the living room. We turned off the TV and then looked at her.

"So what did you talk about?" Yanagi asked.

She stood still, her face frowning. "Uh..."

"Fuuko-neechan?" Ganko called her name worriedly.

"Are you okay?"

Fuuko kept silent for several minutes until she answered.

"My mom's going abroad for a couple of years...and..."

"What?" I blurted out.





"I'm coming with her."
