Chapter 3-"Please Tsume!"
Kegawa lowered her eyes and turned away from Toboe. Tears falling from her eyes; landing on the floor like rain from the darkened clouds. She clutched a pillow closey to her chest and wept into it.
" What's wrong, Kegawa-chan?" Toboe asked in a small voice.
" Nothing, Toboe."
She turned her head in his diection now and smiled slightly. Though, tears fell from her eyes she knew to keep a smile on her face, that's what she had been told all her young life.
" Is it, Tsume?"
" It's nothing really."
"Tell me." he urged kneeling down next to her and placing a hand on hers."
"Tsume is just worried about me, and he shouldn't be. And it makes me worried, too. That's all." she told him in an almost motherly voice.
"You can tell me the truth. I'm not a pup!"
He thew himself up and threw his arm out in an affened gesture.
" That is all. Honest."
Keagawa put two fingers and crossed them together.
" I swear."
" Well, okay then. I believe. I guess."
She stood up and russled his hair.
" I going to go find him and apologize for all the pain I've casue him, and you."
" What did you do to me?"
" That I will tell you when I return. I pinky-promise."
She now put out her pinky.
" Okay, but hurry back! I wanna know the big secert."
