Wake Up
Chapter 2: Can This be Real?
the next day as Ataru was walking to school, he wanted to make sure he wasn't dreaming. so he did the first thing that came to his mind: hitting on a girl.
"hey baby! howsabouta date this Saturday?" he said to some poor girl that was walking near him.
"get a life," she replied. "uhh! it's so warm today!"
"would you like me to take off your clothes??"
"yuck! pervert!" and then *SLAP!*. the girl ran off.
he waited for a voice to say "DARLING!!" and then a shock.
10 seconds went by.....20........1 minute.......2 minutes.
"YAHOOOOO!" he yelled. "no more shocks for me!!"
he celebrated by flipping another girl's skirt. *SLAP!*
Ataru arrived in his class with 2 bright red handprints on his face.
"hello, Moroboshi, see you've been doing you're usual things lately." Mendo said pointing at his face. "ahhhh, i can't wait to see the reaction poor Miss Lum will have on her face when she sees you. say where is she anyways? she usually with you when you come."
"ummmmmm... she..she...she's sick! that's right, sick!" he lied
"o-o-oh.." Mendo stuttered slowly backing away from Ataru. he recalled what happened last time Lum had been sick. he wound up with pink and green stripes on his face. he didn't need to have anymore.
shouldn't tell anyone yet that i wished her away. Ataru thought. that would cause problems. he pictured Megane and his gang tying him up and Mendo holding his sword over him. he was just glad that bratty Ten was back on his planet for a month. he didn't feel like being fried Ataru at the moment.
Ataru got home later that day and the first thing his mother said to him was,
"oh Ataru, you're home, listen, you're father and i are going out to visit with and have dinner with some friends. we should be back around midnight. you and Lum behave okay?"
"Lum's not here mom," he said. "she's ummmmm...ahhh...errrr.......... gone back to her planet for a month to visit her family!" i gotta think of these excuses faster, he told himself.
"okay then. you can order take-out for dinner then." her husband appeared. "ready to go, dear?"
"yup," he said. "bye Ataru. do try and keep the house clean, and flush the toilet after you use it."
"bye!" his mother called as they went out the door."
"see ya! yeesh. they treat like i'm a little kid. i do flush the toilet! and i only made a mess of the house 2 times while they were gone. or was that 3? ahh forget it..." he said as he moved to the phone to order some ramen.
