Chapter Four

Reunited

…Someone caught her fist.

"Uh?"

Hari opened her eyes and looked in front of her to see Yuki holding her fist and smiling.

"Yu..Yuki?"

Hari paused and put her fist down.

"Welcome home, Ms. Hari."

"YUKI!"

Hari jumped on Yuki's back and hugged him tight.

"Yuki! I've missed you so much!"

Yuki put Hari down and hugged her.

"I've missed you too Hari."

"HEY! We were in the middle of something you damn rat!"
"Shut up Kyou-nii! I haven't seen Yuki-nii in nine years!"

Tohru, confused, was still standing in the back of the kitchen watching. She thought "Yuki-nii? Kyou-nii?"

"And what about me!"

Hari turned toward Kyou.

"But you always said…"
"What about me? I've missed you too you know. I didn't know where you were the whole time. You scared me."

"But Kyou-nii…You never liked me hugging you.."

"So what about me!"

"Oh Kyou-nii! I didn't know you cared!"

Hari ran to Kyou and hugged him tight.

"Argh! I didn't say to get all emotional about it!"
"Kyou-nii!"
"Get off!"

Hari began to cry a little. Small tears were dripping down her face.

"Uh..Hari! Hari! Why are you crying?"

"Because…I missed my big brother. I missed you."

"Ah."

"I missed you a lot."

Kyou hugged Hari back for the first time in his life.

"Welcome home sis."

Tohru standing behind them began to cry. Hearing her, Hari turned to face Tohru. Tohru wiped her tears from her face.

"Hi there!"

"Oh, hello! I'm sorry, it's just that was so sweet."

"Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself!"

Hari bowed down and took of her hat.

"I'm Hari Sohma, Kyou's younger twin sister!"

"Oh! It's very nice to finally meet you!"

"Yes very nice. And you are…"

"Ah! I'm sorry! I'm Tohru Honda, I live here with the Sohmas. I've lived here around a year or two now!"

"Oh."

Hari turned around and whispered to Yuki.

"Is it ok to have a girl living with you guys?"
"She knows about the curse Hari."

"Wow. Really?"

"Yeah."

"And Akito… hasn't done anything?"

"No…"

"Well it's very nice to meet you Ms. Tohru!"

Hari put out her hand to shake Tohru's hand and smiled. Tohru then noticed her bracelet.

"Oh. That bracelet!"

"Hm?"

"Tohru! Its um… your turn to take a bath!"

Shigure interrupted.

"Oh, alright. Thank you Shigure! Well, I guess I'll just talk to you when I get out, ok Hari?"

"Yes. Bye Ms. Tohru!"

Hari waved goodbye to Tohru as she went upstairs.

"Hari are you--"

"I'm fine, Yuki."

Yuki stared at her.

"Really! I'm fine!" Hari smiled.

Shigure put his arms on Yuki and Hari's shoulders and said,

"Why don't we invite some people over for breakfast? It'll be a Welcome Home to Hari Breakfast! I'll go call Momiji and Hatsuharu, and Hatori and Ayame while I'm at it! Fun fun fun!"

"Shigure wait!"

Shigure danced about the house with the phone in his hands calling everyone to come over.

Shigure and Hatori on the phone

"Hatori! You will never guess who came over!"

"Ug..Who?"

"I'm not telling you! You have to come over for breakfast to find out! Ha ha ha!"
"Shigure…"

"Hari. You ok?"

Hari looked at Yuki.

"Is Akito still alive?"

"Yes…"

"Oh."

Kyou ran into the room.

"I don't want any leeks for breakfast! You hear!"

Hari laughed and hugged both Kyou and Yuki.

"I love you guys."
