After school, Shinobu walked home by herself.

'I wonder. why Harue is so cruel to everyone." She thought.

When she got home she went to her room to do her homework. She saw that there was a note on her desk. It read:

Shinobu, someone called you, they said:

"Call me back as soon as you can."

The girl who called you was named Harue.

~ Naru

Shinobu gasped.

"But why.why did she call me?" She asked herself.

She slowly picked up the phone.

She started dialing the numbers of Harue's phone number.

It started to ring.

Then, someone answered it, they said.

Harue's Mother: "Hello?" Shinobu: "Uh.hello. Is Harue there?" Harue's Mother: "Oh, sure. Hold on." Shinobu: "'Kay." Harue: "HELLO?!" Shinobu: "Um. Hi Harue. Did you call me?" Harue: "YEAH I called you! I'm surprised you called BACK!" Shinobu: "Well, I always try to return everyone's call." Harue: "Uh huh, whatever." Shinobu: "Well, how are you?" Harue: "I'm goddamn fine. How the hell are you?" Shinobu: "Oh, um. I'm fine as well, thank you." Harue: "Uh huh, great." Shinobu: "Why did you call me anyway?" Harue: "You know, I really gotta go. BYE." Shinobu: "Ok, goodbye. Nice talking to you." Harue: "Uh huh, BYE."

Shinobu hung up and sighed.

"Why is she so rude? I'm sure if she was just a bit more polite she'd be a great friend."
