Chapter 5

"Dinner's ready, Anna-sama," Tamao said meekly as Anna walked into the kitchen.

"Good, go get everyone... I need ask them something..." Anna said as she grabbed a bottle of orange juice and left.

"Hai!"

"Dinner's ready, Horo Horo," Tamao knocked the door that Horo Horo was staying in.

"Arigatou!" Horo Horo said as he left.

"Hey... Erm... thanks for the ride on your snowboard yesterday..." Tamao said as she left to call the rest.

"Alright then... We need to ask something." Anna said as she placed her clean bowl on the table.

"What now!" Ren said grumpily, putting down his bowl.

"Well...Anna and I have decided to ask Tamao and Horo Horo for our Best Man and Bride's Maid... so..." Yoh said looking over to the glutton and the pink-hair girl.

"Hai..." Tamao said, looking down.

"Alright! I'm not off the guest list! YOOHOOO!" Horo Horo yelled.

"We could ask Ren to replace you..." Anna started.

"NOOOO!"

"Fine..." Tamao said.

"Tamao... Are you alright?" Horo Horo asked as he came into the kitchen.

"I don't know... I mean... I love him... but now... I'm supposed to see with my own eyes him getting married... I don't know... don't know..." Tamao, threw herself into Horo Horo's arms and began crying.

"Tamao... don't fret... I mean... you could don't do it... you know..." Horo Horo said stroking her pink hair.

"I don't know... I love him so much... I'm so confused... I want to wish them happiness... but I love him so much... and she...she's my best friend... since young... but now..." Tamao wept.

"Hush... hush... It's no use crying... they are getting married now matter what... they are engaged... you and I both know it..." Horo Horo said, tightening his grip on her.

"I know... but... Oh! Ren!" Tamao cried, leaping away from Horo Horo when she saw the Chinese boy.

"So... this is what you two were doing... disappearing... Tamao... you know... you're too good for Yoh... so don't be sad... and I feel like eating some Chinese food!" Ren said, as he surveyed the couple blushing faces, took a bottle of milk from the fridge and left.

"So... feeling better... I think Ren would really like it if you make Chinese for breakfast tomorrow... well then... I got to go... bye" Horo Horo said, leaving Tamao alone to digest what her two friends said.

"Domo arigatou gozaimasu... Horo Horo... Ren..."

"Eh.. we're having Chinese today for breakfast?" Ryu said as he entered the dinning room with most of the people eating already.

"Hai, Ryu-san! I came across a Chinese recipe book so I decided to make some... it's called erm... Dia Xi I think..." Tamao said exiting from the kitchen.

"It's Dian Xin, Tamao... But... it's good... better then all my 33 cooks in my house in China..." Ren said.

"Hrm... not bad, Tamao..." Yoh said as he finished his weight-lifting for the time-being.

"Oh!" Tamao said, blushing.

"Tamao!"

"Kimi kowai atashi!" Tamao yelled at Horo Horo.

"Gomen ne, Tamao!" Horo Horo apologized.

"Never mind… what did you look for me anyways?" Tamao asked, cleaning her hands.

"Oh… erm… well… just checking..." Horo Horo said, feeling out of place.

"Okay then..." Tamao said, before going back to washing the dishes.

What was I thinking... that's was a perfect time! Damn Horo Horo... just ask her already! Horo Horo thought furious at himself.
