pitcher you say there are other fics like this, well I hope mine is at
least a little original because I never read any others with this same
idea. Either way I hope you all enjoy.***
Chapter 4
"Oh my God what have you two been up to all night!!!" was the sound Chichiri and I woke up to. Reana had yelled that at some ungodly hour of the morning, but I sure was awake after that.
"Reana I could murder you right now you do know that," I told her as I began to get up.
I noticed Chichiri was glaring at me. I didn't mind all that much but I wanted to know why.
"Uhh Chichiri?"
"Ano, I'm sorry it's just that I have never seen garments like that before."
"Well right back at you," I replied noticing that his face looked a little different from last night.
Well not a little a lot. His eyes were both closed and he seemed to be smiling a lot. His voice also sounded a little more high pitched than the night before.
"Well either way I guess I didn't introduce you two. Reana this is Chichiri," I pointed out the bearer of each name while I spoke, "And Chichiri this is Reana."
"Hi," Reana waved.
"Hello, nice to meet you."
"Well now that I'm awake, compliments of Reana, I'm hungry so I'm gonna go make some breakfast. Anyone want anything to eat?"
"No thanks Lenore, I really should be heading home. I have laundry to do and a house to clean. Plus the visitor doesn't seem to be psycho or anything. I already have all my stuff ready so I'll see you at school on Monday. Okay, Bai!" she called as she walked out the door, closing it behind her.
"Buh Bye!" I yelled after her hoping she would hear.
"Ano, what did she mean by psycho?"
"Oh, never mind Chichiri. So are you hungry?"
"I wouldn't mind having a little something to eat. *sigh* What am I going to do. I don't wish to impose myself on you, but I have nowhere to go in this strange world you live in."
"You know what don't worry about it. I'd love it if you stayed here with me. Truth be told, I get a little lonely sometimes and I would really enjoy your company. Anyway after breakfast I'll get dressed and we'll go out. First I'm gonna get you some new clothes so you fit right in and then we'll go to the library and search for the book you were talking about. It might help you remember some things. Does that sound okay with you?"
"I would really appreciate that, arigato."
"Now why is your face different?"
"Ano, I'm wearing a mask. It makes others more comfortable."
"Well I don't like it. I've already seen you without it and your cute," I said blushing, "Plus I can't see real expressions with that thing on. It makes me feel like I'm talking to a robot."
"A robot?"
"It's a lifeless emotionless thing created by technology."
"I understand. I'll take it off when I'm around you. When more people are around I'd like to put it back on though," he gave in as he pulled off his mask.
"Deal. Let's eat, I'm starving," my tummy rumbled as I said that, proving my point.
I waltzed into the kitchen, then threw open a cupboard and grabbed some cinnamon toast crunch cereal. My favorite. I placed the box on my little square dinning table, made of hardwood, then grabbed the milk from the fridge. Chichiri had slowly walked in not knowing if he was supposed to follow.
"Take a seat at the table. I'll have breakfast served in no time."
"Thank you, no da"
I placed the milk next to the cereal box and went to get two spoons and two bowls. I set up the table and poured the cereal and the milk for both of us.
"You do know what cereal is don't you?"
"Yes we had cereals in my time. Not quite like this but it had the same idea. What I don't understand is how to use this?" and he pointed at the spoon.
"Well you hold it like this," I demonstrated, then fixed the spoon in his hand so he held it properly, "then you spoon up both some milk and cereal then eat it. Thus the reason it's called a spoon," I explained.
"I understand," and he bit down on the spoon, "Ahhhh."
"S-M-R-T. Don't bite the spoon just pull the food of the spoon with your lips then chew it."
"That would make more sense, ano," he said embarrassed.
"Don't worry about it," I assured him.
"So does it taste good?"
"Yes, it's peculiar but good."
"As long as it's good," I giggled at his slow attempt to eat. I suppose he was afraid bite the spoon again.
I finished eating much faster than him, so I told him to finish up while I took a shower and got ready. Once I was dressed and ready to go I grabbed my purse and walked back into the kitchen. At least he was done, and I noticed he had put his mask back on.
"So are you full or would you like something else?"
"I'm fine for now thank you so much."
"Your welcome. So if your ready lets go!"
" I suppose I am."
I walked to my door, gesturing to him to follow me. After securely locking my door he followed me down the hallway to the elevator.
"This moving box is making me feel uneasy, Lenore," he said, holding his stomach.
"Don't worry it won't take long before we get to the bottom. After a while you'll start to like elevators."
"I somehow doubt that."
I laughed at that, but felt sorry for him with that queasy look on his face. I reached for his hand that was on his stomach and squeezed it in reassurance until the elevator stopped. It felt really nice.
"Thank you," he blushed. I was just glad it made him feel better.
I looked at him for a moment then smiled and looked away. I decided not to let go of his hand because it felt so warm and welcoming. I felt myself blush a little. Today is definitely going to be a good day!
