Ding Dong….. The school bell rang and the students swarmed out from their classes like bees and Hikaru was one of the working bees that looked quite nervous.

"Hikaru-san, where are you going?" A student tapped on Hikaru's shoulder and gave him a shock.

"Er…straight back to home."

"Oh yeah, you are grounded, sorry to hear that." After giving him the condolence, the student went off and Hikaru quickly turned to the store room where he had put Sai inside it.

"Sai! Where are you?" Hikaru stepped into the creepy storeroom trying to search the poor human that he had stuffed inside and after a while, he heard someone crying behind one pile of basketballs.

"Sai! What are you doing here? Come out, I need to go home now, or else my mum will scold me." Hikaru dragged the crying Sai out and forced him to stand up.

"But, Hikaru, how am I supposed to get into your house? Your mum never saw me before, well not when I was a ghost." Sai was still trembling but he stated out the problem that they are going to have.

"Don't worry, I already have an idea. Trust me."

"Trust you?" Sai doubted.

Finally, they arrived home with many pairs of eyes looking at the weird Sai with those big clothes that are not a fesyen during this kind of weather-hot summer. Well, who will be so stupid to wear long sleeves and a few layers of clothes walking down the hot sun? Not long after leaving the school, Sai already complaining about the weather

"What kind of weather is this? During the Heian era, the weather is much more soothing and lovely…."

"Sai! You have repeated this word for 100 times already! Prepare yourself, later you are going to climb up to my room."

"What? Climb up to your room? Are you crazy Hikaru? I am not a ghost anymore; I can get hurt if I fall down from your room!"

"Well, do you have any idea?" Hikaru stared at Sai and obviously, he was annoyed.

"No…" Although Sai was not happy with it, but he had to agree with Hikaru because there is no other way for him to get inside now.

"So? Get into our garden, I will throw a rope for you and try to climb up."

Hikaru opened the door and went straight inside the house. After a while waiting outside the house, Sai finally saw Hikaru's room window opened and a rope was thrown out from there. Sai used all his 'skill' to climb up the window but unfortunately; his clothes have given him a big problem to climb in.

"Sai! What are you doing? Quickly! Before my mum sees you!" Hikaru shouted at him and Sai was feeling very bad now, his eyes were rolling with tears and looked at the cruel Hikaru.

"Oh fine! Hold on tight! I am going to pull you up." Hikaru took the other end of the rope and pulled as hard as he can.

BANG! Sai finally succeed climbing in to Hikaru's room and caused a long bang that attract Hikaru's mother attention.

"Hikaru, what are you doing? Are you ok?" His mother shouted at the staircase and Hikaru quickly locked the door and shouted back,

"Nothing mum! Is just that I saw a cat at the window so I chased it away."

"What a lame excused." Sai pointed out.

"If it isn't because of you, I won't have to make such a lame excuse!" Hikaru shouted back and his mother was so worried that she asked Hikaru again.

"Are you sure that you are ok dear?"

"Yes mum!"

"Ok. Lunch will be ready any minute now!"

"OKAY!" after replying his mother, he turned to Sai and sighed…

"Now what?" Sai asked.

"How am I supposed to know?" Hikaru walked towards the bed and lied down.

"Hikaru…" Sai looked at the perplexed Hikaru and he doesn't like the facial expression of that little boy.

"Haih Sai, I am happy that you are back. But then, after you have gone, I have tried hard in improving my Igo skills so that I can make you proud."

"So?" Sai can sense that there are more that Hikaru want to tell him.

"I failed my test."

"What!" Sai shouted and this attracted HIkaru's mother's attention.

"Hikaru! Am I hearing some voice coming out from your room?"

"Ha. Ha. No mum! I was just talking to myself! Nothing serious here."

Although feeling that her son was weird, but she pay no attention about it. This is because she is already used to her son's weirdness. She returned to her worked in the kitchen and chooses to ignore that silly boy.

"Sai! Lower down your voice! You are going to get us into trouble!" Hikaru shouted in a lower voice, afraid that his mother will know that his is hiding someone inside his room.

"Sorry…" Sai apologized with his puppy eyes and this made Hikaru wordless. He don't know whether to scold him again and make him cry or just keep quite and let that boyish man to calm down. Eventually, his choose to be quite. He needs no more problems he is having migraine…

"So, what were you going to say before I shouted?" Sai finally calmed down and asked the blond hair boy.

"I failed my test and my mum has forced me to stay at home to improve in my school work. If I get better result at this final examination, my mum will let me play go again."

"Does this mean that we are not going to Go institution? And we cannot play go? And we cannot go and see people play go? NO!!!! Go is my life! NO!!!" And once more Sai shouted and luckily, this time, Hikaru's mother was too busy to check out on her sick son.

"Sai! Shut up! Next time if you shout again, I am going to throw you off from my room!"

"But. But…"

"What But? I have to finish my homework now. Is either you help me or you go there and sit quietly." After giving options to the boyish man, Hikaru opened his beg pack and took out his homework.

"Hikaru…"

"What?" Hikaru is now fighting hard with one mathematic question and his is having headache now.

"Can I play go by myself?" Sai was sitting in front of the go board and look innocently to the furious Hikaru which eyes now were burning in flames.

"ARGH!!!!" Hikaru gone mad. Hikaru throw his book away. Hikaru breathing heavily. Hikaru is staring at the poor man. Hikaru is stepping towards the man. Hikaru's fist was up. Hikaru is getting nearer to the man. Hikaru's eyes are still burning in flames. Hikaru is going to lay his hand on the man. The man took two of his hand up to protect himself. And by that time, Hikaru's mother called and this distracted Hikaru, making him missed.

"Hikaru! Come down now, dinner is ready! Is ramen."

Hikaru stopped. Hikaru's eyes filling with tears. Hikaru's mouth open wide. Hikaru's saliva is dripping down. Hikaru rushed down leaving the shocked man alone in his room.

"What happened?" Sai asked. But no one was there to answer him. Only cold breeze from the window answered him by blowing at him.
