Making you a friend of mine
Mimiki ran straight to her room after the event that she saw. "Mimi why are you running?" "Leave me alone Mamota!" she said crying. "I'll leave you alone then." 'Mimi is sad. I gotta find something to make her feel better.' Then the little four-year-old boy went off to find something to do for his sis. "Mom! Can I go outside?" "Yes but stay near the house." "Ok!"
*~*~*In the village*~*~*
"Where does that girl live? Her footprints are disappearing in the sand. I might as well give up." Marik sat under a tree to rest. He looked at the necklace pendant. It was glowing brightly. "Why does this thing get brighter and brighter every time I walk closer to these homes?" "Wow! Pink and yellow flowers! Mimi will like these!" Marik noticed the little boy. "Wait a minute. Brown hair, really dark blue eyes, tan skin? He looks like that girl! Hey you!" The little boy turned his head to find Marik. "Excuse me, I need to ask you a question."
"My mom told me to never talk to strangers." "Please just answer my question." "Why should I?" he asked. "Because I need to find out where this girl I met earlier is and you might know her!" Mamota thought for a minute. "What does she look like?" he asked suspiciously. "Um.light brown hair, dark blue eyes and tan skin." "Are you talking about my big sister?" he asked. "Your sister?" "Yeah. Are you her new friend? Don't bother her now 'cause she came home crying. I came here to get these flowers for her. I forgot what they were called though." He said. "Um, that's really nice. Do you know when she's coming back outside?"
"She sneaks out at night to that lake over there." He pointed out. "She goes there to looks at the stars and the moon over there. It's her favorite spot." "Ok! Thank you!" "Why do you want my sister anyway?" he asked again suspiciously. "Because she left this." Marik showed him the necklace pendant. "!! You stole my sister's necklace thingy! Robber!! I'm going to tell my sister!" he said running to his house. "No! Wait!" Marik ran after the little boy. 'He can run pretty fast for a little kid.' Marik thought. After five minutes of running, Marik caught up to him. "Please, don't do anything. I'll give this to your sister tonight and don't tell her that I'm going to see her tonight." "Ok, but if you don't I'm going to ask her if she got if back and I won't tell her." He said. "Thank you. You have my gratitude."
"Ok! I gotta go give these to my sister! I won't tell her! Bye!" Then he ran to his house. "I might as well go back home until nightfall. Then I'll give this back to her." 'Why couldn't hardly talk to her earlier? I've seen a girl before and that's my sister but this time, that girl.' "I'd love to know her better now. I can't wait until tonight!" Then Marik ran back home.
There was a knock at a girl's door. "Mimi? Can I come in?" "Yes Mamota." She heard the door open and shut. "Mimi please get up. These might cheer you up." He rested the flowers on her nightstand. "I'll leave you now." Mimiki lifted her head and looked at the flowers. "Thanks little bro." She said smiling weakly.
A few hours later, Mimiki was ready to leave for star 'star and moon watch.' "Are you leaving Mimi?" "Yes Mamota. Now you know the drill. Don't tell mom and dad or if you do, and you sneak out, I'll tell mom and dad!" she said. "Ok! Got cha! No problem!" "Good." She climbed out her window and headed for the lake. When she got there, she was amazed. "Ah! A full moon is shining on the lake! How beautiful!" she said. "The stars are bright tonight! This will get my mind off of what happened earlier." She sat under the tree in front of the lake.
Marik walked to the lake that Mamota told him to go to. He looked around to find the girl. "There she is! I hope that she'll warm up to me." He walked up to her. "Excuse me." The girl recognized the voice. "What do you want? Stay away." "Please don't run away. I want to give this to you." He handed her the necklace pendant. "It glows brightly when you're around it." "Thank you. I didn't notice that it was gone. Aw man the string is untied." "Do you need help? I'll put it on for you." He said. She looked at him for a minute. "Thank you." She said weakly. She gave the necklace to him. "Turn around and hold your hair up please."
She did what she was told. He gently placed the necklace around her neck. "It's on." "Thanks again." 'Maybe I can trust him.as a friend.' She thought. "Look I'm sorry about what happened earlier. I don't know what happened, but if I did anything to hurt you, I'm sorry." Mimiki looked at him. "I forgive you. You didn't mean it." She said. "Will you be my friend?" "I'll be your friend." "Thank you! Um.I don't know your name." He said. "My name? It's Mimiki." She said. "That's a pretty name. Can I call you Mimi?" "Yes you can." She replied. "My name is Marik. I hope that you and I will get to know each other better." He said. "Same here."
"It's getting late. I got to go." "Goodbye Mimi. Can we meet up here tomorrow?" "Sure. Goodbye Marik." Then she left for her home. 'This is a start of a new friendship.' He thought. "You look very beautiful in the dark Mimi. Ishizu is going to be mad at me. I'd better get back home."
*~*~*At Marik's house*~*~*
"Marik! Where were you?!? You've been gone since sunset and its past nightfall! What were you thinking?" Ishizu asked as Marik came to his room. "What's the big fuss Ishizu? I was just giving Mimi her necklace back." "Who's Mimi?" she asked. "The girl I met earlier." "Marik! I forbid you to see that girl!" she said. "Why Ishizu?!? She's my friend! You can't stop me from seeing her! I'm seeing her tomorrow and that's it!" he said. "Marik that girl knows too much about our lives as tomb keepers! She could tell anyone!" "Ishizu I trust her! You don't know her like I do!" "How can you say that and you just met her Marik?!? You don't know her very well! All you know is her name, what she looks like and how she acts a little!"
Marik was stunned at what his sister said. 'She's right. I don't know much about Mimi.' Marik just stood there in his own thoughts. He sat on his bed and turned his back to his sister. "Ishizu, leave me be. I want to be alone. I don't want to talk right now." "Marik.." "Now Ishizu." She then left, knowing that Marik was pretty upset that she forbidden him to see his friend again. Ishizu went to her room to think. "I didn't want to make him mad. Although he's starting to like that girl, I can't keep him away from his friends. The girl might do some good for Marik. I want to see my brother happy."
Ishizu started reading a book to take her mind off of some things. In his room, Marik was thinking and very hard. He was sad and angry. "It's not fair. Why can't I spend time with Mimi? It's not like I want her and I to be more than friends.." Marik blushed at the site in his mind. "No, no, no Marik! You only like her as a friend!" "Master Marik, what's wrong?" Marik turned around to the doorway. "Odeon! Do you feel better?" "Yes, I'm a lot better now. Now what's wrong?" he asked really concerned.
"Well Ishizu won't let me see my new friend Mimi, and I really like her a lot. She thinks that she knows too much about our family's secret. We were supposed to meet up tomorrow and now she has forbidden me to see her. It's not fair Odeon. I should be able to play with Mimi." "Don't worry Master Marik. I'm sure that'll you'll be able to see your friend. If you like her a lot, there's nothing that can keep you away from seeing her." He said with confidence. "Really?" "Of course." With that, Odeon left to see Ishizu.
While in her room, Ishizu was having a hard time to read. "Ms. Ishizu, why won't you let Marik see his friend?" "Odeon she knows too much about our life! She could tell anyone!" she said worryingly. "Marik seems to trust the girl enough. You can't keep him away from his friend. She might do some good for him. I think he even loves her! Please reconsider Ms. Ishizu." Ishizu thought hard for a minute. "Ok, I'll let him go see his friend. It does seem that he kind of loves her.. Marik is lucky that I'm his nice and caring sister." "Thank you Ms. Ishizu."
Ishizu went to his room and stood in the doorway. "Marik..can I come in?" "Yes Ishizu." She walked in and sat on his bed. "Marik, I'm sorry about earlier. I shouldn't keep you away from your friends. You can go spend time with Mimi if you want." "Really?" he asked with a hint of happiness and joy in his voice. "Yes. I can't keep you away from the one you love.." "Love? I don't love her." "You'll find out soon enough. Goodnight Marik." "Goodnight Ishizu."
The lights quickly dimmed and Marik was excited about tomorrow. "I'm gonna have fun."
