( Disclamer: hi, it's me agien reassuring you that i still have not become lucky enough to buy the rights to the shamen king charters so saddly i do not own them ;; cry )
The rain just stoped and the sun shone brightly down on the asakura house through the still grey clouds. some of the light from the over head sun shone in the kitchen window a young and busy tomao was looking out of while she cleanesd a plate and keeping one pretty pink eye on the stew that simmerd on the stove for dinner.
Humming to her self and acting like her kitchen goddess self put the now dry plate away and grabing a towel, checked on a cherry pie she was bakeing.
"um... hello?" a soft, well mannerd voice drifted to her ears
"oh, hello manta." Tamao said good naturedly. Putting the pie on the counter in frount of Manta (who was curently seating himself at said counter) and smiled sweetly. "Yes Manta what do you need?" She asked.
"A glass of milk please" Manta asked. Putting his dictionary next to the pie and opening it to its marked page. "The pie smells very good Tamao" Manta said polilty.
"Thank you Manta, it needs to kool down" putting a large glass of milk net to Manta's hand and picking up the pie and putting it on the partly dry window sill."Let me make you something to go with that milk." Tamao said reaching up to grab a few things from the shelf then getting some stuff from the fridge.
"Oh, thank you Tamao. You really don't have to...."Manta said having a bit more respect for Tamao then useal, debating weather or not to do what he came into the kicthen to do.
"Its no problem Manta, I'm happy to." Tamao said, putting a few things in a bowl and starring fearcyly as he took a smaller bowl and put a few things in it then pouring all the contence of the larger bowl over the contence in the smalled bowl. Taking out a fork and handing it to Manta.
"There you go,Cherry shortcake." She said.
"Thank you Tamao" He said looking at the bowl. The snack looking very sweet and lucioucs. "Tamao,will you......" tring to fight the urge to walk away.
"What Manta is something wrong?" Tamao asked looking at the short blond tring to look nonchalont.
"Could you....... get me a napkin?" He said kickinh himself for wimping out at the last second.
"O.K..." Tamao said slightly disapointed as she reached for a napkin.
"Will you go out with me Tamao?" Manta said suddenly, makeing Tamao almost fall.
"Yes Manta I would be delighted but first, lets share." Tamao said happly. Reaching for a fork and digging in to the cherry shortcake.
