A.N.K.O.L Chapter 5

Waiting

Hideki and Chii arrived home late, so Chii was displeased to learn she had to wait to find out what the program was.

Hideki told Chii to get a good night sleep, and that they'd talk in the morning.

Chii got up extra early because she told Sumomo to set an alarm for 5 am.

Later around 7:30 Hideki got up just to see Chii staring him straight in the face. He let out a blood curdling scream. Ms. Hibiya broke though the door with a baseball bat in hand.

"What's wrong?! Did someone break in?" she blushed quickly when she noticed Chii on top of Hideki. "Sorry I interrupted…"

"No! It's not what you think!" He yelled after her.

Hideki sighed. He just knew this day would turn out to be one big disaster after another. "Chii what are doing?"

"Chii was waiting to be told about the program. Chii got up extra, extra early to be told, but Hideki didn't wake up till just now."

"Just how early are we talking here?" he asked. Chii cocked her head to the side, tuned around, and crawled to the closet. She reached in and pulled out a Keroppi clock. Then she crawled back to Hideki.

"Chii woke up when the tiny stick was pointing to the 5, and the longer stick was pointing to the 12" she said as she motioned her hands to the 'sticks' (hands of the clock), and the numbers.

"So you were just waiting for 2 ½ hours?!"

"Is Hideki mad at Chii? Chii was just excited……"

"No, I'm not mad… just surprised is all." He smiled, and gave her a hug.

Later, after they both got dressed, Hideki walked over to his dresser. He opened the top drawer and pulled out the package he had bought from the persocom electronics store. He walked out to the main room and sat down. Hideki motioned for Chii to sit next to him. "Chii. This is the program I bought the other day". A wide smile spread across her face

"Will Hideki finally tell Chii what the program is?!" she asked, eyes wide with excitement.

"Yep." He held up a small computer chip. "This program will help you to understand what…. Um well… what s-sex is…" he stuttered, obviously nervous. Chii cocked her head, which Hideki had figured out meant she didn't understand.

"Well… um... s-sex is…" he was at a loss for words. "Wait a minute… why am I explaining it? That's what I bought the program for!" he realized that sometimes he could be slower than Chii. "Okay Chii, you ready?" she nodded quickly. "Turn your head to the side." She did as she was told. Hideki opened her ear, and carefully placed the chip inside a tiny drive, meant for downloading new programs. "Okay… Ready?" Chii nodded again. "Download!" he said with lame enthusiasm. Chii's eyes flashed, and she went into a sort of dazed state. Hideki heard a small click, and thought it had worked, when the chip came shooting out of her ear. Hideki dodged it just in time. It smacked against the wall. Hideki went over and picked up the two halves of the broken chip. He sighed "I had a feeling this wouldn't work. Good thing I bought that instructional video." He walked over to the TV and set up the DVD player. He had just put the DVD in when he heard the Keroppi clock go off. "Oh no! I'm late for work! Okay Chii, just watch this video while I'm gone. You don't have work today so don't worry about it. I'll be back later! Bye!" He called as he rushed out the door.

Chii waved, and said "Morning!"

She turned around and saw Sumomo and Kotoko standing in front of her.

"Chii? Why did you say 'morning'?" Kotoko asked.

"I was told to say that by…" she stopped to think. "I-I don't remember…" she replied. "Who are you? Do you want to be my friend?"

"Chii?! What's wrong with you? You know who I am! I'm Kotoko, remember?"

Chii whispered to herself "remember…" and walked to the bedroom.

"I'm worried Kotoko, what's wrong with Chii?" Sumomo asked.

"I wish I knew Sumomo… I think… she's… forgotten me…"
