Haninozuka Mitsukuni sat with his ladies and regaled the tales of Usa-chan, much to their delight. He was happy to be where he was. It was Friday, the day before what was to be a nice relaxing weekend. Meaning that Yasuchika was at a tournament so he didn't have to have his guard up when he walked through the house.

"Pretty ladies, did I ever tell you that my late grandmother made me Usa-chan when I was little?" He asked with big eyes.

"He's so cute!" Was the response from the three who were sitting with him.

"I asked my grandmother to watch out for a new friend who is with her now. She can keep an eye on him till his big sister comes to take care of him again." He babbled through bites of strawberry and chocolate cake.

"He's so nice!" Another round of squeals.

"Ne, Takashi, do you think my grandmother did what I asked her to?"

"Yes."

"Yea! My grandmother was the best and now she can be his grandmother too."

Over in the corner a set of twins and a girl dressed as a boy were watching the conversation between Hunny-senpai and his group.

"I could have sworn he would have been sad that his new friend hasn't shown up since they separated on Sunday evening." Haruhi deadpanned. "It doesn't seem to bother him like it would bother Tamaki-senpai when a new friend of his goes missing."

"That's the difference between our little loli-shota and the crazy king. Hunny bounces back a lot faster, surprisingly." Kaoru stated.

"Did he even tell you what happened or is it just him and Mori-senpai who knows Kasanoda's secret?" Hikaru asked the older girl.

"He didn't tell me or anyone anything, which is why Tamaki-senpai sat in the corner brooding for an hour on Monday." Haruhi answered as she nodded toward her new customer. "I guess it's none of our business."

She wandered off to sit with the girl who had requested her.

"I feel very left in the dark right now." Hikaru stated.

"I feel the same way."

/GG/

Kasanoda walked down the hallway toward the 3rd music room; a man with a mission. In his hand was a bag full of cookies, tiny cakes, and lollies. He doubted the contents of the bag would last the hour if his last conversation with the tiny senior had anything to say about it.

The boy pushed the door open and nodded at Tamaki who was in the process of wooing four girls at once. He also nodded at Kyouya who was walking around and selling host club key chains to the masses. Haninozuka was sitting at a table with three girls who were squealing as Morinozuka brushed powdered sugar off his face.

"Hi Kasanoda-kun!" Hunny giggled when the boy stopped at the table.

"Haninozuka-senpai. Morinozuka-senpai." He greeted his seniors and then gave an embarrassed nod toward the girls at the table too.

"Whatcha got there?" Hunny asked curiously.

"Linda gave me this to give to you as a thank you." He shoved the bag toward the smaller man.

"Really!" Hunny dropped his fork and jumped over Takashi to look in the bag. His eyes went wide and he started to dance around the room. "She made me cakes and cookies!" He sang as he grabbed the bag and gave it a huge hug.

"How come she didn't come and visit herself?" Tamaki asked as he excused himself from his guests for a moment.

"She hopped a plane at two this morning for America." Kasanoda answered, even more embarrassed at having to say good-bye for his cousin.

"And she didn't have the decency to come here to say good-bye?" Hikaru scoffed.

"That's not very nice. What about Hunny-senpai?" Kaoru asked.

"Don't worry Hika and Kao-chan. Natalia called me last night before heading to the airport. She's going to America so she can continue school. It wasn't safe for her to return to Colombia and she was falling behind in her studies." The tiny teen said as he placed his new confectionaries on the table in front of his guests.

"And you knew this but didn't say anything?" Tamaki asked in shock.

"Nope." Hunny pulled out a card from the bag. It had a cute bunny rabbit on the front eating a chocolate cake.

"Then we're not privy to anything?" Tamaki pressed on.

"Nope." Hunny said as he read the card to himself.

You were right MItsukuni, all it took was one. I just needed one friend to give me a push and now I can continue on. Thank you, Natalia.

"But senpai, you need to tell us what you did, what happened to her, why we weren't involved." Tamaki overstressed.

"Sorry Tama-chan, how about having some cake instead. It's really yummy." The look in the teen's eyes said that it was the end of the story, even if it left quite a few people very confused.
