Chapter 4:
Koji and Kida stood in the boy's bathroom, mops and buckets in hand.
"I'm dead…" Kida said quietly.
"I don't think your mom would actually send you back."
"I do… she'd done it before. Back when we lived in London. She sent me back to the U.S."
"You set fire to the school cafeteria."
"Yeah, but she still did it." Koji poured water on the floor and began mopping.
"I think we should get started…"
"Yeah." Kida grabbed a rag from her bucket and walked over to some porcelain thing on the wall resembling a water fountain. "Why do you have a water fountain in here? Isn't there one right outside?" Koji looked at her over his shoulder and caught a glimpse of her getting ready to take a drink…
"THAT'S NOT A WATER FOUNTAIN!" He yelled at her. She stopped before she got to turn the handle for the water.
"Then… what is it?"
"A… uh… urinal." Kida took like, thirty step back.
"AAAH EEK!" Koji sweated. She was fourteen and so dense…
After cleaning the bathroom and not drinking from the urinals:
"See you in the after life?" Kida asked as she and Koji were ready to go their separate ways.
"Yup… grounded for a month…"
"Going back to the U.S to live with Aunt Katy…" Both sighed. They waved to eachother and walked away.
At the movies:
"AAAAAAAAAAAH!" Takuya yelled as some monster gobbled up some blonde girl on the screen. A loud, high pitched scream came, and it wasn't from the movie.
"Takuya!" Izumi scolded in a hushed voice. "Quit screaming!" He was hiding behind his jacket.
"B-But… I'm scared!"
"I thought I was the one wearing the skirt!"
"You are. If I was… there would be a puddle on the floor right now…" Izumi stared at the frightened boy with this expression: 00;;
"Gross."
At the Minamoto's:
Koji walked through the front door, threw his backpack in the closet, and slipped off his shoes. He walked into the dinning room and sat down in the seat, waiting for his father to be furious. But, his step mother entered instead.
"I got a call from your school today," she said sweetly.
"I know."
"Wanna explain it?"
"Everything was an accident. See, first, I was bored in class, so I started playing with Kida's hair with my pencil, but she tugged on it and it flew into the teacher's hair…"
"Alright."
"Then, Kida and I got into a fight and didn't hear the bell ring…"
"OK."
"And… a spider went down my shirt and really creeped me out, so I grabbed Kida's hair… reflex I guess…"
"So… none of it was on purpose?"
"Not one single thing. And now, Kida's mom is going to send her back to the US because she got detention."
"I doubt Kida's mother would do that. Not if Kida explained what happened. Oh, and how long do you have detention?"
"No idea…"
"Alright."
At Kida's House:
Kida stealthily walked through the front door and slipped off her shoes. She began to sneak into her room when a very loud noise came. "Kida Elizabeth Washington!" Kida froze in her footsteps.
"… Y-Yes…?"
"EXPLAIN YOURSELF!"
"W-well…"
"Today!" Kida sat down on the couch, staring at her feet.
"We didn't mean to do anything… See, Koji was playing with my hair and I tugged and… his pencil went flying into Ms. Yukataga's hair."
"His pencil?"
"Yeah, he was putting his pencil in my hair…"
"Why?"
"He was bored." Her mother raised an eyebrow.
"Whatever. The other two things…"
"Well… I got mad at Koji and started yelling so I didn't hear the bell ring…"
"Why were you mad at Koji?"
"I… don't exactly remember…"
"Kida…"
"These three guys were going to black mail him, but Koji didn't fall for it… and… yeah, that's about all I remember…"
"And the last thing?"
"A spider crawled into Koji's shirt and he reflexively pulled my hair. I yelled at him. It went down his pants. He did a dance…"
"So… why did you lie to me?"
"You said you were going to send me back…" Her mother's face went blank. She sat down next to her daughter.
"Kida… I was angry…"
"But you've done it before…"
"We were in debt. I didn't have enough money to take care of you…"
"You still did it…" Her mother wrapped her arms around Kida. Kida allowed tears to flow down her cheeks.
"Kida… You're not going anywhere…"
"Promise?"
"Promise."
"Kay." Then, there was a beep from her mother's bedroom.
"Oh, that'd be my alarm clock. I gotta go sweetie." She kissed Kida's forehead. "Be sure to eat."
"Yes ma'am." Kida's mother raced out the door so she could get in an extra shift at her job. Kida walked over to the fridge and began hunting for some delicious morsel to pounce on when the phone rang.
"Hello?" Kida said, answering the phone.
"Yes, hello. Is this Ruth Washington?"
"I'm sorry, she just went out. May I take a message?"
"Yeah. Tell her that she'd better have that money by tomorrow, or else." She dropped the phone as the dial tone came.
KJ signing off! Yeah, short… deal with it. I'm hungry… Oh, and there aren't any cookies.
