Mano A Womano!
Man to Woman
Part 4
By: Kate Maxwell
It was a long, slow, silent trip back to Relena's institute. It was so quiet that you could hear the tires rolling against the never ending pavement. When the limo finally stopped and everyone (except James) got out, Relena nosily asked, "Miche, where are you staying during your visit here?"
"Relena. I only got her today and you're already askin' a stupid question like that. I'm stayin' with my cousin, James." Michelle replied, and pointed her thumb to where James, the 18 year old chauffer, was sitting in the limo.
"He's your cousin?!?" Duo said, dumbfounded.
"I thought there was a resemblance." Heero said.
"Yeah right. Whatever." Michelle said, disbeliefingly looking at Heero.
"Don't look at me like that." Heero said.
"Heero. Don't talk to my friend like that." Relena said, glaring really hard and trying to make Heero apologize. He just gave her a look.
"Wow. Heero, being rude and immature." A blond 16 year old said as he was walking towards the four.
*He must be Quatre Winner.* Michelle thought.
Quatre walked over to Michelle, bent and kissed her hand saying "You must be Michelle Nicholes. Relena has told me so much about you.
"Oh she did, did she!?! Well. I guess it's not that hard to imagine, coming from Relena. Call me Miche." Michelle said.
"So Miche. How long are you stayin' here in Relena's lovely little pacifistic country?" Duo asked inquesitively.
"Only for two more days Duo. And please don't be sarcastic." Michelle said, looking at Duo.
"Why not?" He asked.
"Cause that's my job."

As Michelle walked down the road to the house she was staying at, she was thinking about how much Quatre looked like her long lost brother. At the moment when she finally convinced herself that he was her brother, she bumped into someone. "I'm sorry. I should have paid attention to where I was going."
"I'll say so, you could have hurt my poor precious poodle. You clumsy, clumsy girl." A woman with a large fur coat and a funny looking hat yelled at Michelle. The woman then picked up her dog and started stroking it while she was walking away and saying, "Poor fluffy. Are you okay? Did that stupid girl hurt you?"
*What's she talking about. I'm not stupid. I think I'd know.* Michelle thought, quite peeved at the arrogant woman and her poodle with the ugly poodle cut. Michelle just shrugged the woman off, and continued walking down the road. On her way, she met Quatre and a person with his hair sticking out in front of his head. *I wonder who that could be?* Michelle thought as she walked up to Quatre, who had seen her and was waving for her to join them. "Michelle, this is Trowa Barton. Trowa, this is the girl I was just talking to you about." Quatre said, the last sentece directed to Trowa. "You mean the girl who looks like your lost sister." Trowa said, rhetorically intended.
"Yes, that's her." Quatre turned a slight shade of pink.
"Don't be embaressed Quatre. If she is your sister, you should be happy. I mean, if I met my lost sister, I would be overcome with joy." (hint, hint)
"Trowa, shush. Michelle we're going to see a movie, do you want to join us?"
"Sure. It's nice to meet you Trowa. . . . Um, Quatre, what movie are you planning to see?" Michelle asked, with a look of slight intrigue crossing over her face.
"Um. . ., actually; we didn't figure that out yet. Any suggestions Michelle."
"Not really."
"Trowa?"
". . . We could see that Apes Planet movie." Trowa said, kind of lost in thought.
"Don't you mean 'Planet of the Apes'." Michelle said.
Trowa just shrugged.
"Okay then, Planet of the Apes it is." Quatre said with so much entusiasum, that everyone around the trio stared at them.
