A smile that never fades

Chap.2

Tohru walked out of the hall and she had no smile. Yuki and Kyo notice when she walked in the door.

"Something wrong, Miss Honda?" Yuki asked as he walks to Tohru. Tohru nodded and sat down near the two of them.

"Yo, what's wrong? You seem a little depress," Kyo examined Tohru. She blinked and looked at Kyo.

"It was my grandfather. He got sick. I'm sure the doctors will have him out in no time." Tohru explain as she gave Yuki and Kyo some tea. "Something is wrong with Tohru," Yuki & Kyo said at the same time.

It was a new day here at the school. Today was exam finals, and Tohru study her hardest to past. Yuki was worry about her. Hanajima was also worry, so she pulled Tohru out of class after the test.

"Tohru is something the matter? You seem upset lately," Hana asked as she looked into Tohru's expressionless eyes.

"Oh, it's nothing. I was just shock to get that phone call yesterday evening. Its really nothing," Tohru try to explain. Hana could see the expression on Tohru's face not even lifted when she try to explain. It was like a frozen mask. A frozen mask on Tohru was not a good sign.

"Miss Honda, how'd it go on the test?" yuki asked as he waited for Hanajima to leave. "Well, I learn a lot of new answer from the last test and I'm well aware that I'm going to past," Tohru said, no expression, to her happy, cheerful face. [I]What is the matter with Miss Honda?[/I]

They avvired home and Shigure was stuck with another dead line, so he couldn't be there when they need his advice the most (A/N: Shigure is locked up in a cellar room with only paper, pen and newspaper. Posted by your's turly, the editor!). Kyo was watching how Tohru fold the clothes, singing, but no expression. "Hey, what are ya doing? Aren't you going to smile for once?" Kyo asked as he help her with the basket of clothes (A/N: Work evil Kyo slave! WORK!!).

"What do you mean, Kyo?" Tohru asked, with no expression. Kyo stumble a little by shock how fast this illness had gone. [I]Tohru what is the matter?[/I]
