a chapter just following Kyo Sohma finally meeting with his crush, Tohru Honda. I admit it's a little bit longer than the previous chapter was. it's just that it's not long enough to really, truly matter, at all.
disclamation: I do not own Fruits Basket in any way, shape, or form. all rights of ownership in the anime are reserved for the folks down at the Funimation Anime Company in the US and for the staff over at TV Tokyo in Japan. all of the manga's ownership rights are reserved solely for Natsuki Takaya-sensei.
the only thing that I truly own in any of the ownership laws of the series are my 'Fruits Basket' fanfictions such as this one, right here.
Tohru smiled at Kyo, but Kyo only grew shy at the sight of his crush's smile. Tohru saw this and decided that her newfound friend might be a little less bashful if she at least introduced and greeted herself.
Tohru Honda: Hi, I'm Tohru Honda. It's nice to meet you, Kyo Sohma-san.
Tohru held out her hand for Kyo to shake in introduction. Kyo was so shy though, that he backed away, reluctant to respond to her.
Tohru Honda: I said "hi".
Kunimitsu Tomoda: Well, aren't you gonna answer her, Kyo?
Kyo shook his head. Then, he got so nervous, he blushed a slight pink and silently gulped.
Kunimitsu then went into full on teasing mode.
Kunimitsu Tomoda: You're not too scared, are you, kid?
Kyo now blushed a bright red and shook his head even harder and more vigorously than he did the first time with a scowl on his face.
Kazuma Sohma: Then, why don't you at least say something to her, too? Why not try saying "hi" back to Tohru Honda-san?
Kyo Sohma: Hi, my name's Kyo Sohma, but I'm sure you already knew that. What are you doing here, anyway? Don't you have someone waiting for you at home?
Tohru Honda: My mom isn't coming back home until late tonight. Even if I don't get home by the time she gets back, I'll have to call to let her know where I am. You wouldn't happen to have a phone, would you?
Kazuma Sohma: Yes, we do have a phone.
Tohru called the phone number at her mother's work office to let her know that she was probably gonna be late coming home, herself.
Tohru Honda: Hi, mommy. How are you?_ how is your job going?_ oh, the number I'm calling you from. I went to go visit someone, and the phone number is over at their house. I just wanted to let you know._ I wanted to let you know in case I was late coming home, myself. _ I love you, too. Bye.
Tohru hung up the phone. Then, headed back to Kyo and his handsome foster father.
