"Okaasan, Ohayo!" Tohru greeted the picture of her mother as she woke-up. Success! Success! Success! Last night, I was so sleepy so I was not able to talk to you about what happened. Yuki-kun asked me out for a date today! I was doing my homework last night when he asked me if I would want to go to the art museum that recently opened in the city. Then afterwards, when I said ok, he kissed my hand and thanked me. I was so overwhelmed by his show of affection. But I'm worried about Kyo. What would happen between us? He's also one of my prospect husbands. Do you think I should just go for Yuki-kun? He's rich and is loved or wanted by Akito-san. Actually, I'm not so sure. Akito-san is so possessive of Yuki-kun but Yuki-kun is afraid of him.
Okaasan, I'm loved by this family. I had them all fooled by my sweet charming smile. Even Shigure the dog can't sense my intention with this family. I should have been an actress. Ha ha ha! My dream of becoming filthy rich is just a step away. At first I had my cap set on Shigure-san because he is the owner of the house but I think he's not really interested in girls but in men. Then when I learned about the existence of Akito-san, then my attention changed direction. It would really be the best if I can get Akito-san. He's the head of the family and very rich and powerful. Everybody is afraid of him. Not only that, he's handsome and young too. Most importantly, I heard from Hatori-san that Akito-san is dying. If I could marry him now, then all his riches will go to me, right? It's just a shame that Akito-san hates me. Maybe because we are the same and he can see through my act.
Okaasan, you're the one to thank for this good fortune of mine. If you hadn't died then I wouldn't have met the Sohma boys. This is I think the compensation for your death.
Don't worry about me now; I can take care of myself even if they treat me as a maid here. When I become rich, I would get grandfather from auntie. Let's see if auntie and my cousins will not envy me. They would realize their mistake of not being good to me . . .
"Honda-san, are you awake yet?" Yuki's voice interrupted Tohru's conversation with her mother.
"Kuso, here's that Yuki again, always whining about everything." Tohru mumbled. "I'm running out of advices." Oh well, I just have to put up with him if I still want my dreams to come true. Ja ne Okaasan! Tohru kissed the picture of her mother.
