Chapter 16: days later
"Ahh… I'm so glad to be home." Shigure says as he sits in his office along with Yuki leaning against his door entryway. It's a few days later from the day they came to get Shigure.
"That was quite an adventure you had. After when we came to get you, I heard little Tanako was crying." Yuki says.
"You heard that from Ritsu, huh?"
"Yes. He told Ayame, Ayame told us."
"Well of course I would tell you guys something so touching!" Ayame says as he walks by laughing. Normally, when Ayame walks by, he would stop to chat, but instead Yuki watches him walk off to the bathroom. Knowing this, he might walk back to chat with them, so sooner or later, Yuki needs to evacuate into his room.
"Where'd all these peaches come from?" Kyo voice was to be heard from the living room.
"Sigh… I wish I could go visit the two… but it's best that this angel must stay away. Oh well… I'll just be asking Ritsu how they are doing since he's visiting them and all now." In a relaxed mood, Shigure leans back, looking up into the ceiling. "At least since he is now with Mitsuru, and those two kids are Mitsuru's kids, I won't need to worry as much. Hmm… you know… I never knew Mitsuru had kids. This is quite a tale…" Hearing the phone, Yuki goes to pick it up. It was Ritsu on the other line.
"Hello?" Ritsu says.
"Hello Ritsu."
"Ahh, Yuki. Hello. Um… tell Shigure That Mitsuru is on her way wanting his story. She's quite upset and-"
"Wassup!" Another voice was heard from Ritsu side of the line.
"Oh, that was Aiko. Uh… she says Hi."
"Hello! Shigure!" Mitsuru's voice was heard knocking at the door. "I need that story! Right away! Hello? Anyone there!" Tohru answers the door.
"I hear Mitsuru. Please don't tell her I just called. Okay, bye Yuki." Ritsu hangs up the moment Mitsuru runs into Shigure's office.
"Shigure! I need that story right away! The deadline about to past in a few days and you haven't even started! And-"
"Don't worry dear Mitsuru. I've finished. And I spent the past 5 days straight doing so." He really did! Tohru, Yuki, and Kyo worried more about him during that time then the time he went missing. From Shigure's drawer, he takes out a stack of paper to hand to Mitsuru. Suspiciously, Mitsuru looks through it expecting to be a prank, but not this time. It was an actual story.
"Wait… that's it? No harassing? You're just going to give it to me like this?"
"Well, I heard from Ritsu you finally found your long missing children. I wouldn't want you to be upset on my account."
"Wow… this is surely a change in heart… especially from you. Alright, I'll start my editing right away."
"Oh, Mitsuru."
"Yes?"
"Do me a favor, let your kids read it as well. I made it to be… at least decent for there young age. I'm sure they might find some similarities of their life in it."
"Ahh! It's Ritsu's women!" Ayame says popping in from the front doorway.
"What'd you call me?" Mitsuru yells.
"hahaha!" Ayame waves one of his hands, "Relax… Ritsu is very glad to be with you and besides; it stops Aiko from her nagging and instead puts her in a happy mood! There are some peaches sitting on the living room table if you care to have some."
"Uh… thank you." Ayame holds out the peace sign as he walks away. "Um… Shigure, why don't you come to visit some time with Ritsu? My brother is a fan of your work. He'll be glad to meet you. And my daughters-"
"Of course I'll come to visit." Shigure says with a smile.
Last chapter so hard to think up. tsk tsk it really was. I spent my time burning my brain just to think it up right (even though months later, I notice it isn't as good as I use to think it was.). Well, thank you for reading all this way, leave one more comment if you wish too. Laters!
