Shion: Hiya! How's the story so far? Me hope you like it! Well, I'll be working on it more during winter break because I'll have nothing to do. Well, Enjoy!

Chapter Three

Tohru, Yuki and Kyo left for school. Hoshi waved as they left. When they were out of sight, she stopped waving and sighed. She walked inside. She felt sad that the fact she couldn't talk and that her father will be looking for her everywhere. She walked to Kyou's room to get her wet clothes and her backpack. She got a basket and put all her wet stuff in the basket. Her clothes smelled and were covered with dirt. She put her clothes in the washing machine and washed them. She went passed the room Shigure was in. She walked backwards to see Shigure working on something. She knocked on the door. Shigure looked up and smiled.

"Ah! Come in!"

She nodded and sat on the floor across from Shigure. Hoshi notice he had a laptop just like hers except her was blue and his was black. Since Shigure was writing something, she turned it around to where the screen was facing her. She doubled clicked on Microsoft word and very quickly typed in something and turned it around. Shigure looked at the screen. The font was comic sans MS that was color pink.

Cool laptop. I have one just like it. Except mine has a blue covering on it.

Shigure looked at and laughed and typed something in. He turned the screen so it would face the girl. It was in blue Times New Roman.

Haha! Really? Well, how about you get yours and it can be a lot easier to talk.

She nodded and ran up the stairs to get her laptop. She came back and turned it on. She signed onto AIM and added Shigure's screen name on there.

Little shooting star: I didn't know older people like you had AIM accounts.

The Novelist Dog: Haha! Well I like to keep in contact with my friends.

Little shooting star: Oh. Cool.

The Novelist Dog: Ah! Speaking of friends, my two best friends are on!

Shigure sent Hoshi a chat invitation and she accepted. There were two other people in there besides her and Shigure.

The Novelist Dog: Aya! Hatori! Good morning to you!

Beautiful snake: Shigure! How are you?

Doctor Dragon:……..

The Novelist Dog: I'm well and how are you?

Beautiful snake: I'm great! And who is 'Little shooting star'? Is that your girlfriend or something?

Doctor Dragon:……..

The Novelist Dog: Yes! : )

Hoshi gave a weird look at Shigure. He laughed, having a sweat drop on his head.

The Novelist Dog: Haha! No. This is Hoshi. She's staying at our house for a while.

Beautiful snake: Huh? I don't get it! How can she be on at the same time as you on the same computer?

Doctor Dragon: Isn't it obvious that Hoshi has a computer too?

Beautiful snake: Oh right! You are so smart Hatori!

Doctor Dragon:………

Beautiful snake: Anyways, Hello Hoshi! I am Aya Sohma.

Little shooting star: Hello I'm Hoshi.

Beautiful snake: Ah! That is such a cute name!

Little shooting star: Thank you.

Doctor Dragon: Hello I'm Hatori.

Little shooting star: Hello Hatori! It's nice to meet you.

Beautiful snake: So Hoshi, What do you do for fun?

Little shooting star: Well, I cook, clean, help people out, surf the Internet; hang out with friends when I was in American and I like the park and amusement parks.

Beautiful snake: Oh my goodness! We have to talk in person.

Little shooting star:……

The Novelist Dog: Um, Aya? () She can't talk. She lost her voice.

Beautiful snake: Would you like Hatori to give you a check up?

Little shooting star: No! It's alright. I'll be fine!

Doctor Dragon: Shigure, I'll be over there in thirty minutes.

The Novelist Dog: Okay! Bye!

Doctor Dragon signs off

Beautiful snake: Well you heard him! We'll see you in thirty minutes!

Beautiful snake signs off

Little shooting star: He doesn't have to give me a checkup.

The Novelist Dog: well, It's too late now!

Little shooting star: Ugh! Well, I'll cook something before they come over.

Little shooting star signs off The novelist signs off

Hoshi cooked something while they waited for Aya and Hatori to come. While putting the tea on the stove, she heard someone knock on the door.

"I'll get it!" Shigure called going to door. He opened the door and Hoshi could hear him say come in to the guest.

"Shigure! It's so nice to see you again!" Aya said joyfully as they walked into the dining room.

"It's so nice to see you too Aya!" Shigure answered back.

"So, Shigure, where is this girl Hoshi?" Aya asked as he sat down pushing his hair back.

Hoshi walked in with a pot a tea and the rice balls that she had cooked. She placed them on the table and left the room to get cups and plates. She put a cup and a plate in front of everybody and sat down putting her hands in her lap and looking down. Shigure smiled and pointed to her.

"That's her." He said cheerfully. Aya and Hatori looked at her.

"She looks shy." Aya whispered to Shigure and Hatori.

Shigure giggled. "She's not that shy." Hoshi looked up. She had a piece of paper and a pencil with just in case. She wrote something down and passed it down to Shigure.

I heard that.

Shigure laughed. "Sorry Hoshi. Now, Hatori! Would you like to examine her?" Hatori put down his tea and nodded.

"Follow me." Hatori ordered Hoshi. Hoshi nodded and followed him to Kyou's room. Hatori closed and locked the door. Hoshi felt nervous.

"Don't worry." Hatori said dully. "I locked the door so those two won't bother me. Hoshi silently giggled and sat on the bed. Hatori gave her a check up and checked her throat. About ten minutes later, Hatori and Hoshi came downstairs. Aya and Shigure looked at them.

"Well?" They both asked?

"Well, something really bothered her last night. I believe it's something depressing but I don't know. It's only temporary. Nothing to worry about." Hatori explained. He turned around and faced Hoshi. "If you need anything, get Shigure to call me." She nodded and she held a figure up to make him wait a minute. She left the room and came back with a piece of paper. Hatori opened the note.

Thank you

Hatori slightly smiled and nodded. "You're welcome." Hoshi slightly smiled back. Hatori looked back at Aya. "Come on. It's time to go." Aya looked sad but he got up.

"Goodbye Shigure!"

"Goodbye Aya."

Aya looked at Hoshi and nod. "Goodbye." She nodded back.

"Bye Hatori!" Shigure called.

"Bye." Hatori said as he exited. Aya followed and they left to go back home. About an hour later, Yuki Tohru and Kyou home.
