WOW, I updated. Sorry it was so slow, but I've been sick, and busy with Christmas shopping and homework. So yes. Very sorry.

So read and be happy I'm alive and I have a new chapter, or be angry with me for not updating sooner.

Suou Hina's POV

I wandered into the classroom, with Mama right behind me. Daddy took Niichan over to his classroom. Hikaru-jiichan and Kaoru-jiichan and Hunny-jiichan were all there, too, with Kaito-kun and Hideki-kun, and Yoshi-san. Some old lady came up to Mama and started to chat with her, so Mama made me go play. Yoshi-san came over and dragged me towards the twins.

"Ne, ne, wanna play, Hina-chan??" I looked at her. I thought… she was crazy. And she probably is. I sighed.

"Um… okay? I guess," The twins came over too. I stuck my tongue out. They both made a funny face at me. Soon, it was a contest. Whoever laughed first had to get everyone's juice. Yoshi-san ended up the loser. So, since she was smaller and hardly could carry all those drinks, I helped her.

So the day passed without anything happening. Well, until recess. As soon as the teacher let us out, we all ran out the door. Since I was so close to Kaito-kun, Hideki-kun, and Yoshi-chan, we all ran out towards the grass to play with a small ball. We kicked it back and forth, from the twins, to Yoshi-chan, to me, and back to the twins. We kept it that way until I missed it... As a 'punishment,' (whatever that is) the twins sent me to go get the ball. I sighed, and looked around for it. It was near the gate. So I ran over to the gate, and picked up the ball when I heard barks and a small scream.

I looked up. Pair of evil, scary looking doggies were after me. I dropped the ball, my eyes wide. Then, screaming for my life, the ball, and anything else I could think of, I started running. I didn't care where I went. Really, I didn't care where I got to as long as it wasn't near those mean looking doggies. I nearly ran into a tree, when I realized that doggies don't climb trees. They don't got 'supposadle thumbs' or something like that, Niichan told me once. Their fingers are weird, and can't get onto the tree right or something like that. So I ran onto the tree and started climbing. I got really, really high into the tree, and the doggies couldn't get me. I stuck my tongue out at them, and they jumped at the tree. I nearly fell outta the tree.

No one saw that I was gone. No one knew where I went, I guess. Until Michio-san saw me. He was playing with his friends on the playground for the bigger kids. He shouted at his friends, and they all ran towards the doggies, and scared them away. Then, he made Kaito-kun and Hideki-kun go get a teacher to help me come down from the tree, because I was too scared to get down. I started crying when the teacher came to get me.

"Don't worry, Hina-chan!!" Kaito-kun shouted at me. I looked at him as the teacher helped me down.

"Yeah, Hina-chan! We're here to, uh… protect you!" Hideki-kun said. I looked at them both.

"But you two weren't any help at all!" I told them. Then I grabbed the ball. It went over to the wall of the classroom while I was in the tree. Michio-san hit them on the head.

"I did all the work." He said. Then he saw that I had the ball.

"Hina-chan, wanna play dodge ball?" I nodded slowly.

"What's dodge ball?" Yoshi-chan asked him.

"You get into two teams and throw the ball at each other until it hits someone. If it hits someone, you're out! That's easy, right??" We all nodded. Michio-san took the ball from me, and went to one side of the court. "Yoshi-chan and Hina-chan are on my team. And um…" He pointed at one of his friends to be on the same team as the twins.

So we played all during recess, and we won! Yoshi-chan ran up to me and high-fived me. Michio-san messed with my hair. And then, the bell rang. So we all went back to our classrooms.

During class, we played a game. In the game, we learned who everybody in class was. It was really fun.

Afterwards, we drew pictures. I drew a picture of the big, scary doggies that were outside during recess. I think the teacher was scared of 'em too, because she looked at it all funny. Oh well. Kaito-kun and Hideki-kun drew pictures of some kids in class and then took markers to draw on their faces. They had to sit in time out after that. Yoshi-chan drew some sweets, like cake and ice cream. It looked really yummy.

At lunch, we all went into the cafeteria, and got in line. The nice ladies there gave us lotsa yummy foods. We all sat at a table, and ate together. Then afterwards, we got to go outside to play again!

Right after our other recess, we had to go home. Mama and Daddy were there to come get me.

"Did you have a fun time?" Daddy asked me right away. I nodded and put my backpack on.

"It was really fun, and I met lotsa people!" I said. Then, I yawned. It was a really, really big yawn. "But now… I'm really tired. Getting chased by those dogs was really, really scary." I told them. Yoshi-chan and her mommy and daddy, and the twins and their mommy and daddy came over to say hi. They shooed us away outside while they talked. So we talked by ourselves.

"Today was really fun, ne, Hina-chan?" Yoshi-chan asked. I nodded.

"But I hope it doesn't happen everyday." I said, and sighed. "I don't think I can take getting chased by a bunch of doggies all the time." Hideki-kun and Kaito-kun laughed.

"Of course not, silly!" The twins said, laughing. "Doggies aren't here normally!" they shouted again.

"Well, then… Good. It was hard getting away from them." I said. Then, Mama and Daddy pulled me towards them. They were saying something to everyone else's mommies and daddies

"Yeah, we'll see you tomorrow. Have fun!" They shouted at lotsa people. I yawned again.

"Oh. We should get you home, Hina-chan. Daddy's gonna stay here and wait for Taeko, and we'll go home, okay?" Mama said to me. I could hardly pay attention, I was so tired. She kept talking and talking, and eventually, I fell asleep in the car.
