CHAPTER FOUR: MAMORU'S AFFAIR?!
Walking quietly up the stairs, so as to not wake Mamoru, she heard voices coming from their bedroom. It was no surprise since they had a television in their room, but the scene that Usako saw when she flicked on the light shocked her. She went pale and then a deep red. "Who in the heck to you think you are? Get out right now if you know what's good for you!" she screamed at the long, pink-haired girl next to her Mamo-kun. "Hajimimaste. Watashi-wa Chibiusa desu. Doozo yorishiku." The woman replied patiently.
Hurriedly, Usako went to her photo album and feverishly flipped through its content until she found the page that she was looking for. 'Aha! I thought so!' "Its been a long time hasn't it Chibiusa?" The girl paused for a moment and asked how she knew her name. Usako's response was that she was her mother. "NANI!" was all Chibiusa could say. When she finally found her voice she said that she had been alone ever since she was born, and that she has no memories of her parents. "You were never alone Chibiusa. My parents disowned me for what I did and you ended up in an adoption center when Shingo wouldn't take care of you," Usako stated, "We would have taken care of you but we still had to finish school. You wouldn't have liked it anyways. We probably would have been really poor, and..." Usako was cut off by the doorbell downstairs. "I wonder who that could be. We aren't expecting anyone this afternoon."
