And now Ukraine makes her first appearance and the story can begin!

Ukraine was surprised to find Mathew and a sickly looking kid outside her door.
She could never remember his name. It was something weird like Canadi
or Cadana. But she could never forget his human name: Mathew. She
could never call him that, human names seemed so personal. She was
fine if it was Ivan or Natalya, but Mathew was...

"Hi. Long time no see." She said.

"Yeah..." he replied. Mathew was disappointed she didn't remember his
name. At least she didn't confuse him with his brother.

"And you must be Kumajiro!" she exclaimed bending down to face the boy
who was still tightly holding on to his father's arm.

What the hell? She couldn't remember Mathew's name, but she remembered
Kumajiro even though they had never met! Mathew was hurt and
realized just how awkward this was going to be.

"Um… is it ok if we stay here for a bit?"

"Sure!" she said surprised.

Canada looked down at his son trying to tell him that he wanted to
talk to Ukraine alone for a bit, but the boy wouldn't budge.

"Do you want some ice cream?" she asked him, "There's some in the freezer."

Kumajiro reluctantly left after giving Ukraine a dirty look. She
realized that he was scared she would steal his dad away from him. She
thought this was really cute and wanted to reassure him by telling him
there was no way Mathew would like her back.

She invited Mathew into her house and smiled at him, waiting to hear
what he had to say.

"He's sick and the doctor said he had to stay somewhere cold.
Can he stay here until he gets better?" he asked, "I can't stay with
him because I have to go to the G8 meeting. And I just don't know what
to do anymore."

Mathew started to cry again.

"He's the only family I have. I can't lose him!"

Ukraine thought Mathew was really cute when he was worried. He must be
overreacting, Kumajiro didn't look that bad.

"Don't worry I'll take good care of him!" She said before kissing him
on the cheek.

Mathew could feel his face going red. He didn't know what he was supposed to do.

"Are you guys coming or what?" shouted Kumajiro from the kitchen.

Mathew, still blushing, hurried into the kitchen to join his son.

If I were a Hetalia character, I'd be fem!Canada. Not just because I'm Canadian. I have the blond hair (and I'm going to cut it shorter for the Montréal comicon! Thanks for the free passes dad!) , the glasses and I even have a white teddy bear! I wrote this whole chapter before I realized I was spelling Kumajiro wrong (Kumijaru) and my mom said "Oh! When did you get home?" to me yesterday after I'd been sitting next to her for half an hour -_-

And when I was doing some research for my ff, I found out that Kumajiro loosely translates to Beary! It's like I knew about Kumajiro when I named my bear, before I even knew about anime!

My sisters say I'm too violent to be Canada and that I should be Hungary or Belarus…

I'm just babbling now because I don't want to study for exams! I'll post more later! Thanks for reading!
