Chapter 3
Ding dong!
Ran went to answer the door, seeing that her father was out cold with his desk filled with cans of beer. As she turned the doorknob, she had a hint of feeling that behind the door was…
"Shin-Shin-Shinichi!" Being surprised was an understatement of what Ran felt at that moment. She could not utter any words, all she felt was joy, surprise, anger, and love. "What are you doing here?!"
"What? If you don't want me here I can just lea-"
"NO! It's not that it's just…I'm so glad you're back!" Ran went up to Shinichi and brought he down for a hug.
"Ow! What was that for?" Shinichi rubbed his arm after being punched by the karate expert.
"That was for being gone for so long. I've really missed you Shinichi." By now, Ran was on the verge of tears.
"Oh come on now Ran. Did you miss me so much that now you're crying?" Shinichi knew what Ran has gone through for the past few years and her crying made him feel even guiltier of the thought of hurting his loved one.
"No! I just got something caught in my eye, that's all."
"Well, since it's just something caught in your eye, then does that mean that you're not mad at me anymore?"
"What? Of course I'm still mad at you Mr. Detective Geek!" Ran said.
"Oh, then I guess you wouldn't want to get any ice cream with me then, huh?" Shinichi had a huge grin on his face.
"Out to get some ice cream? Is that a date?" By now, Ran was blushing to hear that Shinichi was actually asking her out on a date.
"Well, I guess you could call it that." Shinichi's face was as red as a tomato.
"Well, I guess I'm not that mad at you. Let's go!" Ran grabbed Shinichi by the arm and literally dragged him to the Ice Crème Parlor.
At the Ice Crème Parlor…
"Well Shinichi, are you finished with your case now?" Ran hoped that Shinichi could stay home and not back to his case any time soon.
"Well actually, that's why I'm here to see you. You see, I'm not quite through with my case, but I will be if you could do me a favor." Shinichi knew that this was the moment of truth.
"You see the truth is that I'm…"
