Fruits Basket OVA Series
Disclaimer: I don't own Fruits Basket.
Notes: This is going to be a funny chapter I assure you. Also I don't know how old Mii really is but she looks a bit older than Shigure so I'm going to assume a five year age diffrence.
Chapter nineteen: When Shigure meet Mii
Shigure sat at a table. He was going to have an appointment with his hopefully future editor. Hatori was there as well drinking green tea. They were talking about his could be editor. ''You're going to to tease her and avoid her aren't you? I wouldn't be surprised if you did.'' Hatori said. ''Hari, I can't believe how little faith you have in me!'' Shigure whined. ''You can't?'' Hatori said rhetorically. He sighed and tried to change the topic. ''Anyhow have you finished that book of yours?'' He asked. ''As a matter of fact I have. My illustrator thinks it will be a number one bestseller.'' Shigure replied in a confidant voice. ''Is the illustrator the voice inside your head?'' Hatori asked. He had read the book cautiously and it reminded him of hentai. ''Hatori I don't hear-'' His words were interrupted due to the sudden ringing of the doorbell. ''I'll get that.'' Shigure declared getting up. He walked over to the front door and opened it.
A woman dressed in a light blue dress with a yellow blouse underneath appeared. Shigure knew right away who this woman was. His new editor. ''My name is Mii.'' She greeted politely as she bowed. ''It's nice to meet you Mii. I'm Shigure Sohma.'' Shigure replied bowing. Later they both sat down for the job interview. ''To start with how old are you?'' Shigure asked. Mii blushed a little bit as she spoke. ''Um, I'm twenty two. I just graduated from college.'' She replied. ''Really twenty two?'' Shigure asked doubtfully. ''All right I'm twenty seven.'' She admitted impatienly. ''See now that wasn't so hard.'' Shigure said smiling. when Mii didn't reply Shigure decided to change the subject. ''See I'm not an official writer yet. But I have already written my book. All I need is for you to edit it then give it to the company to be published.'' He explained. ''Can I read your book first to see if it's appealing?'' Mii asked. ''You doubt my talent?'' Shigure asked pretending to be offended. ''No of course not. It's just that all books need to have an apealing quality before they're published!'' Mii replied nervously. ''All right then you can read it. If you can find it.'' He said. ''Find it? I have to find it?'' Mii asked shocked. ''It would be fun.'' Shigure replied cheerfully. ''All right then I will.'' Mii declared confidently. She stood up and began to look for the book. Hatori who had been listening to the entire conversation sighed and said to himself ''That woman has no idea what she's in for.''
Twenty minutes later
Mii felt like she was going mad. For twenty minutes now she had looked for the book. She finally came to the conclusion that Shigure was merely toying with her. So she decided to confront him. ''I'll bet he hasn't even written it yet!'' She thought to herself. Shigure was smoking peacefully on his desk while talking cheerfully to Hatori. ''I assume you're very happy with what you've done.'' Hatori said sarcastically. ''Oh,Hari you make it seem like I'm torturing her!'' Shigure replied. ''You didn't write the book she is looking for did you?'' Hatori asked. ''Um, well of course I did! Say Hari how's medical school doing?'' Shigure said trying to change the subject.
''Don't change the subject. If you keep this up she'll quit her job. Although judging by the way you treat her it's a no brainer if she does.'' Hatori warned. ''Don't worry about it. I'm having a little fun with her.'' Shigure said. ''Shigure!'' shouted Mii. ''Oh there she is now. Bye Hari!'' He said. Then he hung up the phone. Hatori sighed and hung up as well. The moment Shigure hung up the phone Mii stared at him a look of pure fury on her face. ''Hello Mii! How do you like your new job!'' Shigure asked cheerfully. ''This is not a job! This is a nightmare and you're the devil!'' She shouted. ''I get that a lot. Look Mii, I have the book right here.'' Shigure replied. ''You do?'' Mii asked her eyes growing wide. He pulled the book out from under his desk. ''Here you go.'' He said handing it to her. ''Thank you! Thank you!'' She said rushing off in happiness. Shigure smiled and thought to himself: ''This is going to be fun.''
