Fruits Basket Chapter 3

Scene: Shigure is walking over to the Main House to see Hatori.

"Hi Hatori can I ask you a question real quick?"

"Sure, why not?"

"Tohru-chan has a friend named Keiko-chan and she........she has the same curse as the Sohma family and so I was just wondering............if.......if I could tell her about the curse? Oh and another thing she bumped into Kyo and he didn't transform."

"That is really weird she isn't even a Sohma. I think if you trust her you can tell her, but don't let Akito find out."

"Okay thanks Hatori."

Shigure is asking Yuki and Kyo if it is okay for Keiko to know about the curse. Tohru and Keiko are reviewing to test, and talking about tricky questions on there.

"Okay I brought some more snacks if anyone wants any."

"Thanks Shigure-san"

"There is something we want to tell you......The Sohma family has the same curse like you....when we are hugged by the opposite sex we change into our zodiac form, but if they are hugged by someone in the Sohma family they don't change."

"But I bump into Kyo-kun I didn't change and Kyo-kun didn't change but why. Do you think I might be related to the Sohma family but someone or something?"

"Maybe I could call your mom or dad and ask. Is that okay with you Keiko?"

"It's fine with me as long as we figure out why I didn't change and Kyo-kun didn't change either."

"Hi is mom there?"

"Yeah hold on"

"Hello"

"Hi mom its Keiko, my friend, Shigure-san has a question for you so hold on."

"Hi Keiko's mom this is Shigure and I was just wondering if you or your husband is related to the Sohma family in any way?"

"Hi Shigure, yes we are my maiden name is Sohma."

"Okay thank you we were just doing a family tree and we.....we where just wondering."

"Okay well bye then."

"Bye."

"Shigure you are such a bad liar" said Kyo laughing at him.

"So is my mom or dad related to the Sohma family?"

"Well, your mom is."

"Do you think that she has the curse?" said Tohru

"Well I don't really know?"

"At least we know that you're related in some way."

"That's good."

"What Zodiac animal are you?" asked Yuki

"I'm the year of the cat. You?"

"I'm year of the rat and Kyo here is the same as you. What about your little brother."

"He is the year of the rat too."
