Chapter 4: A visit from Kagura.
Before the four headed to Shigure's house, Tohru had to make a pit stop. She had to go to the food store and grab milk and other necessities. While outside waiting for tohru, kyou got restless.
"When is she going to hurry up?" he asked crossing his arms. He walked over to the wall of the building and sat down.
A couple of minutes later, Tohru and Minami came out holding bags of groceries.
"Minami would you like to stay over our house tonight?" tohru asked. "You can sleep on the extra cot in my room."
Minami didn't know what to say. She knew well enough to not go back to her cousin's after what she did to her. Tohru was making her an offer.
"Alright, I'll stay over. Just for tonight though, or my cousin will throw a fit." She said.
Yuki noticed something shocking.
"Does your cousin beat you like this all the time?" he asked. Minami shook her head.
"No, not all the time. Only when she gets drunk. She has an alcohol problem. She drinks at least sixteen bottles a day." She replied. Minami felt awful as everyone glared at her wide eyed. 0-0 Ohhhh...Kyou burst out.
"What?! She drinks a pack a day?! Do you know what that shit can do to you?" he said.
"Kyou's right Takashimi-san," said Yuki "Did she ever try to stop her addiction?"
Minami nodded.
"She tried to stop, once, but she was hooked. Alcohol is like candy for her, it's so good that she can't stop."
As they got to the front door a girl busted out. She glomped Kyou around the waist, and he looked like she was about to cut off his circulation.
"Kyou-chan! You are home! Thank goodness!" she said. Kyou tried to get the girl off of him, but she hugged him tighter. Tohru and Minami just looked at the scene in amazement. The girl looked to see that Yuki and Tohru were there also.
"Yuki-kun...tohru-chan how are you?" she said. The girl came and hugged tohru.
"Kagura why the hell are you here!?" Kyou asked the girl.
"I just wanted to see my lover on my birthday. It's so romantic." She said, swooning. Kagura suddenly noticed Minami and looked puzzled.
"Tohru-chan is this your friend?" she asked.
"Kagura, this is Minami Takashimi-san. She's new in town." Yuki replied. Kagura smiled and gave Minami a 'welcome to Tokyo' hug. Kyou got pissed.
"When are you going to leave?" he asked Kagura. "You are annoying me."
Kagura started to cry. Tears leaked down her cheeks.
"So...so you don't want me here anymore." she sobbed. Kyou turned around with a scowl.
"No one wants you here...go home." He said. Kagura sobbed.
"Kyou-chan you are so mean..."she said. Kyou ignored her, and then all of a sudden kagura started to chase him around the yard.
"You are so....mean kyon-chan! We are supposed to get...married! YOU WILL BE NICER FOR NOW ON!!" she said. Kagura had almost caught up to Kyou when, Shigure, came to the door.
"Now what is going on out here? I'm trying to finish writing the rest of my editorial!" he said. Shigure was aggravated, and so was Kyou who was still being chased by his so called lover, Kagura. Shigure saw Tohru, and Yuki.
"Tohru-kun did you bring home any milk?" he asked. Tohru nodded and brought in the 3 bags of food. Shigure noticed the blonde haired girl next to tohru. Minami had so much to say about his house. It was similar to her parent's house that was burnt down.
"Tohru where is the kitchen?" she asked. Tohru pointed to a room next to the living room. Tohru, noticing the confusion on Shigure's face introduced Minami.
"Shigure-san this is my friend Minami Takashimi-san. Can she stay over for the night?" tohru said.
"Hmm, I don't know," he thought "Kagura wanted to sleep over tonight also."
Kyou walked into the room with a large bruise forming by his eye.
"What?! Don't tell me she's sleeping over?!" he said. There was a crash and one of the doors fell apart. Kagura came in.
"Kyou...do you not like me? I'm...staying and that's final!" she said glaring at Kyou.
Shigure's eyes opened wide at the sight of the broken door.
"Kyou...that is the 5th time this week..." he said. "I suggest you fix it or Kagura will have my permission to live here forever." Kyou's face turned white.
"What?!" He said. It was a busy day for them all and a crazy one at that. Kagura and Minami were sleeping over and Hatori called to see if he can have a check up for Yuki tomorrow.
/ Haa-san of course you can come over tomorrow. It's my treat. Bring some cigarettes too. I'm all out / shigure said. Hatori sounded tired.
/ Shigure, make sure Kyou and Kagura don't do anything wrong when your there. She can be very cranky lately / said hatori. Shigure laughed.
/ I know what you mean...There was this new girl with Tohru-kun this afternoon.../ shigure said.
/ Do you think it's wise for her to stay over your house? / said hatori. There was a long pause then Shigure said.
/ Yes, she seems very kind and she's very cute. She reminds me of a tohru double /
/ But if she finds out.../ said hatori / her memories will have to be erased /
/ If Akito can let Tohru know maybe he'll let this girl in to...she seems kind enough to me.../ shigure said.
/ Shigure, every girl sounds nice to you...but first you'll have to persuade Akito.../ he said.
/ Yes, that'll be the hard part...you know him well enough that he's stubborn.../shigure said. Hatori heard a loud bang coming from Shigures' end of the line.
/what was that? / He asked.
/ I think it was kagura and kyou-kun...I'll see you tomorrow haa-san.../
/ Yes, I'll see you tomorrow. / They both hung up.
