Title: Meeting the Parents


"Meeting the parents" is always awkward... especially for Ritsu Sohma.

Seen objectively, the visit was wonderful. Mitsuru's parents were very kind.

But then, Mitsuru stepped out a moment. Ritsu felt terrified.

Mitsuru's mother smiled. "Would you like to see some old photos of Mitsuru, Sohma-san?"

"Yes, thank you."

As he looked, he was puzzled. "Is this Mitsuru-san's brother?"

Her mother smiled. "No. In school, Mitsuru was such a tomboy, she wore a boy's uniform."

"MOTHER!" screeched the returning editor, "Don't show him those!"

Crying joyful tears, Ritsu held Mitsuru's hands between his own. "We are just alike! I knew it!"
