Chapter 3- Talk
"Let me show you to your room." Said Maki after they reached home.
Shori said nothing and just followed to where ever her uncle is going.
"Here we are, the guest room. Make yourself at home."
"And if you need me, I'll be downstairs preparing lunch."
Shori nodded and starts to unpack.
After finishing her task, she ambled into the living room and sits herself on the leather couch. Doing nothing but daydreaming.
"Hey, wanna talk."
A voice was heard behind the tomboy.
"Sure, whatever."
"So, How old are you Shori?"
"13. How about you?"
"17."
" Oh……………. I see."
Maki frowned.
"What's that suppose to mean." He said in a dangerous tone.
"Um………It's…. Just…. that………..you… look…younger. Yeah, that it, because you look much younger."
Maki sweatdroped
I know she's lying………thought Maki aloud.
"So, which school are you attending now?" Shori shot her first question at her uncle.
"Oh, I'm studying at Kainan High."
" A public school?"
"Yeah."
"You?"
" Royal Military Academy."
"Wow, you must be one tough girl!"
" Yeah, you could say that. It's really hard to enter that school. There are only 3 girls are enrolled in that academy of mine. You got to be perfect in everything and perfect means very very very perfect."
"O.k."
" You play basketball?" A question sprouted out of Shori's mouth.
At this, Maki sat up straight.
"Yeah, in-fact I'm a MVP player."
"Cool, so am I."
" Hey, come to think about basketball, wanna join me shoot some hoops with my friends later?"
"Sure, I'd like that."
" Well, what you're waiting for. Go change."
