CHAPTER 2: Eating Time
RECESS TIME…
"That was quite an entrance back there, Botan-chan," Keiko said chuckling as she pictured Botan's dazed expression while the teacher talked to her that morning.
"You can say that again. I totally forgot to put batteries on my alarm clock!" she said while mentally slapping herself.
"Remind me to buy a set of batteries later," she said to Keiko who sat beside her.
"Hey, carrot brain! Hand me the money. I won the bet, didn't I?" Yusuke said to Kuwabara who say in front of him in the cafeteria table.
"What bet?" Botan asked innocently.
"Well, carrot brain here said that this year, you wouldn't be late. But Yusuke here told him the contrary, so they decided to bet on it. Fortunately, Yusuke won." Hiei said, while Yusuke smiled triumphantly.
"Hey! Who are you calling "carrot brain", short stuff?" Kuwabara said angrily.
"Since you have a brain with the size of a dust particle, why don't you figure it out yourself?" he said mockingly pointing a finger to Kuwabara's oversized nose. Sensing chaos will shortly take place, Yusuke stood up and instantly held Kuwabara, who wa about to pound Hiei.
"Stop it, guys. The cafeteria lady may kick us out of here, and I'm already starved. By the way, where's Kurama-kun? We can't eat without him." Botan said while searching the cafeteria for a certain cute redhead guy.
As if on cue, Kurama stepped inside looking for them. Botan saw him and waved at him so that he can see them.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, guys. The principal sent for me and we talked about some school matters. Geez, being the student council president is going to be tough." Kurama said while taking a sit next to Hiei.
"That's why we're here! We can help you rule over Meiou High," Yusuke said as he imagined himself being the king of their school and with beautiful girls on his feet. Suddenly, Keiko punched him.
"What was that for?" he said with confusion.
"Don't even think about it, Urameshi!" she said with angry eyes. With that, he understood.
"Thanks, I think," Kurama said and sweatdropped when he saw Yusuke trying to make peace with Keiko, but failed miserably.
"By the way, the principal handed me this," Kurama said as he handed Hiei a letter. "It's addressed to you, Hiei."
Hiei took it and read it silently. His eyes widened with shock and happiness. When he finished reading it, he folded it and put it in his pocket.
"What does it say?" Botan asked while eating a sandwich.
"It's a letter from my mom. She said that she's sending my twin sister here, in Japan and she's going to study here." He said bluntly but his eyes betrayed him when a glint of happiness showed.
"I didn't know you had a twin sister," Kuwabara said.
"Maybe because you never asked in the first place. Since my parents divorced 5 years ago my sister and I were separated, by the way, her name is Yukina. They made a compromise, which included me living with my dad and she with my mom. But since my dad died, I had to stay with Genkai oba-san, my mom's cousin. Since my mom's job required going out of town, she's afraid that she might disregard Yukina's welfare. That's why she's sending her here so that Genkai oba-san and me can take care of her." He said. When he finished narrating his life story, he sweatdropped to the sight of his friends staring at him with their mouths slightly opened. He almost had a laughing fit when he saw Kuwabara's mouth widely opened with a fly buzzing in and out of it.
"I didn't know you had a complicated life, Hiei. It can be made into a soap opera." Keiko said.
"When will she arrive?" Kurama asked.
"Well, she ought to be here at 4:00 pm on Saturday. I'll fetch her on the airport." He replied.
"We'll go with you, and after that, we'll celebrate her safe journey at the ramen house!" Botan said gleefully.
"That's a wonderfull idea!" Kurama said
"Well, count me out of it." Kuwabara said. "One Jaganshi (an: Hiei's surname) is enough. I don't think I can stand another one." He said as he imagined a female version of Hiei. He shivered with horror.
"Hey, don't be a kill joy!" Yusuke said. "Okay, I'll give you your money back if you come with us. Our group will not be complete if you let this pass."
"Besides, it's rude to avoid her," Kurama said.
"Okay, okay! I'll think about it. But don't expect me to show up!" he said finishing his mango juice.
"Hn, I don't care if you go or not." Hiei said coldly to Kuwabara. "Thanks, guys."
Kuwabara sure is making some big mistake!
Well, that's it! Sorry if there's no romantic moments here. I'll put it in the next chapter.
Please review, I would really appreciate it!
Ja ne!
