Waiting for Minako
by DDFA (Mark A Page)

Part Three - The Plane

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Scene: Makoto and Ami, sitting on a brick wall in an empty park,
somewhere in Tokyo.

Makoto: She's late, you know.

Ami: Yes, very late.

Makoto: Very, very late.

Ami: Yes, very very late.

Makoto: .....

Ami: .....

Makoto: .....

Ami: .....

Makoto: You know, maybe she really DID forget to meet us here.

Ami: Yes, probably.

Makoto: After all, this is Minako we're talking about, here.

Ami: Yes. Yes. It is.

Makoto: I mean, she's probably ditzing around her house,
wondering if there was something she forgot to do.

Ami: Oh, definately, definately.

Makoto: .....

Ami: .....

Makoto: I mean, it's not as if it would be the first time.

Ami: Yes, yes. She's done it before.

Makoto: Ignore all her responsibilities....

Ami: And her arrangements.

Makoto: The girl is just, like, incorrigible.

Ami: Inept.

Makoto: Incompetent.

Ami: Moronic.

Makoto: .....

Ami: .....

Makoto: I think that's taking it a little too far.

Ami: Yes. Yes, it is.

Makoto: I mean, she's not really that bad, is she?

Ami: No. Nowhere near that bad.

Makoto: I mean, just because she has regular ditz sessions....

Ami: Everyones' allowed to have their odd moments.

Makoto: Their foibles and such.

Ami: Indeed. Indeed.

Makoto: .....

Ami: .....

Makoto: .....

Ami: .....

Makoto: What are you looking at?

Ami: Hmm?

Makoto: What are you looking at? You're staring into space.

Ami: Just looking at the plane up there.

Makoto: Plane?

Ami: Yes, that one.

Makoto: I hate planes.

Ami: Oops, forgot about that.

Makoto: I really hate planes.

Ami: I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned it.

Makoto: Mama and Papa died in a plane.

Ami: Forget I even mentioned it, okay?

Makoto: Came crashing to earth....

Ami: Technically speaking, though, it is a jet.

Makoto: The effect that had on me....

Ami: Yes, a Boeing, i think it is.

Makoto: All that pain I had to endure.

Ami: Boeing 737. Or an Airbus A300.... One of the two.

Makoto: All because of bloody planes.

Ami: Yes, a bitch, isn't it?

Makoto: .....

Ami: The plane....

Makoto: What about it?

Ami: It's exploded.

Makoto: So it has.

Ami: Port engine just went "kaboom".

Makoto: Fire and smoke everywhere.

Ami: It's spinning to the ground.

Makoto: Lots of people will die....

Ami: Oh well. Not much we can do about it.

Makoto: .....

Ami: .....

Makoto: Yeah, you're right.

Ami: Ouch.

Makoto: Jeez.

Ami: That was a big explosion.

Makoto: Yeah, I could feel it from here.

Ami: .....

Makoto: Is aircraft fuel always that explosive?

Ami: Mostly.

Makoto: I see.

Ami: Indeed.

Makoto: Yes.

Ami: Hmm....

Makoto: .....

Ami: .....

Makoto: .....

Ami: .....

Makoto: She's late, you know.

Ami: Yes, very late.

Makoto: Very, very late.

Ami: Yes, very very late.


END OF PART 3

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Will Minako ever arrive? Did a plane really crash on Tokyo city?
Or is it all a figment of Makoto's and Ami's imaginations? Stay
tuned for the next installment of the exciting wait by Makoto and
Ami, in "Waiting for Minako", in stereo where available. ^_^
