Chapter 2

"I learned it from her," Serena replied, pointing at Haruka. The people around them were shocked and also confused.

"What?" Haruka asked. "I don't remember teaching anyone how to play."

"Oh, but you did," Serena answered. "It was a long time ago. Don't you remember Ruka?"

"I don't know you. I don't remember ever seeing you before," Haruka said. "And don't call me Ruka, only one person can call me that. That person isn't you."

Serena just stood there laughing and enjoying herself.

"Ruka, Ruka, Ruka. Have you forgotten me already? I thought you said you'll never forget me," Serena said with a fake hurt tone. "Cause I for one, never forgot you."

That's when it hit Haruka. 'Could it possibly be her? Could she possibly come back after all these years?' Haruka thought.

"Usako?" Haruka asked, looking at Serena in the eyes. Haruka eyes held hope, hoping that the person in front of her was the person she loved years ago. The little girl that she had grew up with and shared many secrets. The girl that she had been waiting for and wishing every night that she'd see her again one day. The little girl that she had pReid every night, hoping that she's okay.

"I'm glad you still remember me," Serena said with a smile. "For a moment there I thought you have forgotten about me."

"It's really you? You're really here in front of my eyes?" Haruka asked, as she moves up closer to Serena.

"Yes, it's really me, Ruka. I'm back, I've come back to stay," Serena said.

Haruka suddenly grabs Serena and holds her in a tight hug. Tears were brimming in her eyes and Serena wasn't any better. They embraced each other and let their tears run freely for a moment. They didn't care what was going on, as long as they were there together.

"I can't believe that you're back! I've missed you so much!" Haruka said, still not wanting to let Serena go.

"I miss you too!" Serena said.

A few minutes later, they pulled away from each other. They begin to look at one another, looking each other up and down, with a smile on their faces.

"You've grown! You're not the crybaby I grew up with," Haruka said.

"Hehe, yes, I've grown. But you did too! Your hair is shorter! I can't believe you cut your beautiful long hair!" Serena exclaimed.

"She used to have long hair?" Shoulder length black hair girl asked shockingly.

Serena turns to look at the girl and then she turns back to Haruka, a questioning look on her face.

"Oh! How rude of me? Let me introduce you to my friends. This here is Tomoe Hotaru, her sister Meoih Setsuna, Kaiou Michiru, Hino Rei, Kino Makoto, Aino Minakoko, and Mizuno Ami," Haruka said pointing at each and every one of them as she introduces them.

"Nice to meet you all, I'm Serena, Serena Moon," Serena said.

"Nice to meet you too!" They all said.

"Now, tell us, did you say Haruka used to have long hair?" Rei asked.

"Yep! I remember her hair went past her waist," Serena answered.

"Really? Do you, by any chance, have a picture with you?" Setsuna asked mischievously.

Haruka groaned as she covers her face with her hands. 'God please, say she don't!' Haruka thought.

"As a matter of fact, I do have a picture with me," Serena said as she looks through her purse for the picture.

"Oh, no! Please, don't let her find it," Haruka groaned.

"What was that Ruka?" Serena asked sweetly, looking up a Haruka for a minute then went back to her search.

"Yes, 'Ruka' what was that?" Makoto teased.

"Nothing," Haruka muttered.

"Aha! I found it!" Serena said, as she holds the picture in the air.

"Oh, no!" Haruka groaned out again.

Serena gave Haruka a big, bright smile, and then she gave the girls the picture to look at.

"Wow! Haruka, this doesn't look like you at all!" Ami exclaimed.

"Yeah! If Serena hasn't told me that this was you, I wouldn't have recognized you," Michiru said.

"You look totally different!" Minako said.

"Yeah, what happen?" Rei teased.

"I got older, that's what happen," Haruka replied.

"Everyone, let's go sit down and continue this conversation. Our foods are getting cold," Ami said, as she motions toward their table.

"Yes, Ami's right. Our dinner has been there for a while now," Setsuna said.

The others nodded their heads and began their way towards the table, with Serena right behind them.

"So, Usako, what are you doing back here?" Haruka asked, once they were all settled down.

"I'm back here for college," Serena said.

"Only you moved back?" Haruka asked.

"No, mama, papa, and Shingo will be here in a couple of months," Serena replied. "Shingo had to finish his summer classes and papa has to wrap up his work."

"What are you majoring in?" Ami asked.

"Well, I haven't decide yet," Serena replied. "Maybe architectural design, or maybe law."

"You could draw?" Hotaru asked.

"Hai, I could draw, but not as well as Michiru. The famous artist," Serena answered.

"You've heard of Michiru?" Minako asked.

"Of course, all of her paintings are famous. I have every one of her collections," Serena said, as she turns toward Michiru. "I'm a big fan of yours."

"I'm glad that you like my paintings," Michiru said with a smile.

"Usako, do you still play the piano?" Haruka asked.

"You play the piano?" Minako asked excitedly.

"Yes, I do. After we move to the States, mama wanted me to continue my piano lessons. So, I've taken piano lessons, along with guitar when I was a child," Serena replied.

"I remember when we were young and it was time for us to take piano lessons. You would find excuses to not practice and sometimes you would play pranks on the teacher," Haruka said with a chuckle.

"I wasn't that bad," Serena said as she sticks her tongue out at Haruka.

"Oh, right. You call making the teacher scream her lungs out and be out cold, not that bad? Well, then how about the time when you 'accidentally' brought Luna with you to practice?" Haruka asked.

"It was really an accident! I didn't know Luna was in my backpack," Serena said.

"What happened? Who's Luna?" Makoto asked curiously.

"See, Luna is Usako's kitten and our teacher is allergic to animals, mainly cats and dogs," Haruka began. "So, when Luna jumps out of Serena and jumps on the teacher, she went crazy and began to sneeze repeatedly. The next day, she had these rashes all over her body. She had to stay in bed for over a week!"

"Oh my! Poor lady," Michiru exclaimed.

"Oh! That's only a minor injury," Haruka said.

"Only a minor injury? You called a woman being in bed for over a week, because of an allergic reaction a minor injury? I don't even want to know what would be a major injury that Serena here had caused," Rei said.

"Hey! I wasn't the only one who causes most of the trouble," Serena said.

"Haruka cause trouble too? Now, why aren't I surprise?" Setsuna asked teasingly.

"Tell us some of the things she does? Please?" Hotaru pleaded.

"Well, one time, when we were at daycare. She . . ." Serena said.

". . . And everyone at the daycare center had to go into the emergency room for food poisoning," Serena finished.

"You gotta be kidding?" Rei asked, as she tries to control her laughter. Everyone else around the table was laughing their heads off, even Haruka.

"Ladies, it's closing time. Shouldn't you all be heading home?" Motoki asked, as he walks up to their table.

They all look around the arcade and saw that no one else was there, except for them.

"It's that late already?" Ami asked. "Mama will be so worried."

"I guess we lost track of time," Setsuna said.

"Well, we should be going then," Michiru said.

The others nodded and got up from their seats. They all paid for their food and left the arcade.

"How about we meet up tomorrow?" Rei suggested.

They were standing in front of the arcade, about to go their different ways.

"We could have lunch together tomorrow," Michiru said.

"How about a picnic? I'll pack some food," Makoto said.

The others looks at each other then nodded their heads.

"Then its settle, we'll all meet at the park at twelve for lunch," Setsuna said.

"Uh, I'll be a little late tomorrow," Serena said.

"It's ok, we'll wait," Haruka said.

"Ok, then, till tomorrow. Bye everyone!" Rei said, as she and the other three girls left.

"Bye!" Everyone said.

Now only five girls are standing out on the street near Haruka's car.

"Where's your car Usako?" Haruka asked, looking around for some other car.

"Oh, I walked here. My car isn't going to arrive until Wednesday," Serena replied.

"Then hop in. I'll drive you home," Haruka said.

"Thanks," Serena said, as she sat in the back with Setsuna and Hotaru.
