Sarah looked up into the face of the principle of the school. The whole time Sarah shouted 'Damn! Damn! Damn!' over and over again in her head. "Um hi Mr.- um…what was your name again?" Sarah asked innocently but it didn't work this time. The principal grew dark red with anger and shouted, "Miss Hong! Report to the office immediately and you can spend some time thinking about what my name is! Now get going!"
Sarah didn't need to be told twice, she quickly walked past…what ever his name was and down the hall to the office. She reached for the hand and swung the office door open and walked inside. She turned to the secretary but the secretary just shook her head and pointed to a bench which Sarah knew meant 'Sit down and if you fucking talk, your dead.'
Sarah sat there for what seemed like hours but really was just under 30 minutes. She finally laid down and stared at the ceiling which had many dots imprinted on each tile. "489. 490. 491. 492. 49…um…3. 494. 49-" "Sarah?" She turned her head to the sound of her name. "Oh, hi Yuki. Waz up?"
Yuki Sohma was standing next to the secretary's desk holding a pale tan colored folder you see in every company's office. They were very common. His head was tilted to the side watching her with a questioning look. Probably wondering why she was laying on a bench in the office counting dots on the ceiling. "Why are you here and not in class?"
"Yuki, your starting to sound like my mother or somethin. But to tell ya the truth I have no idea why the heck I'm here."
Yuki turned and handed the folder to the secretary and said very politely, "Ms. Takahna, I'm taking Sarah back to class with me." She nodded with a smile and said, "What ever you want Yuki dear." He motioned to Sarah to get up and fallow him. She sat up and fallowed. When they were in the hall Sarah said, "Well. Well. Don't you have connections."
Yuki turned to her a little confused, "Connections?"
"Yes, connections. It's called 'net working'."
"Net…Working?"
"Yep. It's like the sayin goes : It's not what you know. It's who you know. But any way, what now?"
Yuki started walking again and Sarah fallowed. "We go back to class I guess." "Really? Why don't we do something…I danno…funnier." Yuki looked at Sarah with a blank look on his face. Sarah stated with a smile, "It'll be fun. You know you want to."
"What ever. Lets go…where ever were going?" Sarah and Yuki stood in front of a small shop. A large sign leaning against the side of the building that read "Soda Shop". Sarah smiled while Yuki cocked an eyebrow and asked, "Where are we?"
"At the Soda Shop! Dah. I found this place when I first arrived when I was walkin' 'round town one night. Come on!" She grabbed Yuki's sleeve and pulled him in side.
"I'll have the 'Tiger', Sai! Hey Yuki what you want?" Sarah turned to Yuki with a smile. "I um…don't know whats good?"
"Well my fav is the 'Tiger' but the 'Rose Spice' is good. Oh! And I also like the good ol' 'Vanilla Coke'"
"I think I'll have a vanilla coke."
"Cooly. Hey Sai! Yuki , here, wants a vanilla coke!"
An older looking man behind the counter nodded and a few minutes latter brought over their drinks. Hour after hour passed and Sarah and Yuki just sat and talked. Around four in the afternoon they decided to walk back to school and get their things and go home.
Sarah slide the door open to Shigure's house and walked in with Yuki fallowing. The many people inside the kitchen turned their heads at the sound and Yuki and Sarah soon entered the kitchen. "Where have you two been?" Shigure asked boardly.
"No where. Just walkin' 'round town." Sarah said in a annoyed town and looked around the room. Momiji was standing next to Tohru, helping her with dinner Sarah guessed. Kyo and Haru were arm wrestling which seemed odd so Sarah cocked an eyebrow. Yuki walked past her and sat down next to Haru. Sarah decided sitting down was a good idea so she fallowed suit and sat next to Kyo who was straggling against Haru's strength.
"Wow Kyo. I didn't think you were this weak that your going to lose to Haru." She said in a mocking town.
"I'm NOT going to LOSE!"
"Sure you aren't"
Haru's eyes narrowed and he started to push Kyo's arm to one side. "Come on Kyo! You can do it!" Sarah cheered. Haru glared at her. "You can too …Haru! Go Kyo and Haru! Wait. That makes no sense 'cuz I can't cheer for both 'cuz ones ganna lose so…I will cheer for…"
Slam!
