Kuwabara spent many of his days at the park for the last half of his summer. Shizuru was good at holding grudges, and the easiest way to deal with it was to not be around her. On days when he wasn't joined by his friends, he would find himself secretly watching the girls at the park, and to his surprise they were actually interesting.

Everything about them was just so different than it was with boys. The way they dressed was weird, with their skirts and frills and bows. Even if they were wearing a T-shirt and jeans, their clothes still tended to be girly colors and have hearts or flowers or cute little animals on them. The way they played was different as well, even if they were playing the same games. If Kuwabara was playing a game of tag with his friends, he had no qualms with shoving them over or tackling them, and they'd do the same to him. Kuwabara had never seen a girl do something like that, nor had he ever seen them play wrestle, or play soldiers, or cops and robbers (and Kuwabara felt they were really missing out). When girls played they were…gentle.

They were weird.

But despite their oddness, or maybe because of it, now that Kuwabara had started watching them, he couldn't seem to stop. It didn't help to realize that girls could be so pretty, with their big eyes, long, soft hair, and silky skin. Kuwabara wondered what it'd be like to actually talk to a girl; what on earth could he possibly say to one?

Finally, Kuwabara decided the only way to get his questions answered was to ask the only person he knew who had any sort of experience with them.

"Urameshi? Why are you friends with Yukimura?"
