Round Five: Kabaji Decides
Jiroh was spending that night at his place for the weekend. Of course Atobe didn't realize this until the day of and against his objections as well. It seemed that Jiroh found out that Kabaji would be staying at his place during the weekend since he parents were out of town. And so he decided to invite himself over as well to 'get to know each other better'.
-
Atobe had never met an odder person.
-
Jiroh rode with Atobe and Kabaji as soon as practice let out. He exclaimed at Atobe's grand mansion even though he and the rest of the team have been here on occasions.
-
"This is so awesome Atobe," Jiroh exclaimed marveling over the posh interior.
-
"Hmm well I suppose it is," Atobe agreed leading Jiroh and Kabaji further into his home.
-
"It's a good thing I slept as much as I could during classes today. That way I won't miss a moment of all the fun we'll be having."
-
Atobe shook his head in wonder at Jiroh. This weekend would be interesting at the very least.
-
"Hmm well Jiroh want do you want to do first," Atobe asked deciding to ignore Jirou's odd remarks.
-
"Well…um," Jiroh pondered, "I don't know. Oh why don't we let Kabaji decide?"
-
Atobe was stunned into silence. While Kabaji may be one of his dearest friends, he wasn't a talkative person so having him decide their plans for the weekend is a bit…peculiar.
-
But Jiroh is known for being unusual himself so he really shouldn't be surprised.
-
Atobe turned away from Jiroh's expectant face to speak to Kabaji. "So Kabaji," he started awkwardly unfamiliar to these types of situations…with him at least, "Jiroh and Ore-sama would like to know what you would want to do for this weekend."
-
Silence. Just as expected.
-
Atobe turned back to Jiroh to admit his failure only to find out the boy was fixated on Kabaji waiting for an answer he would never receive. Atobe turned back as well even though this was pointless. Yet for some reason he couldn't say no to Jiroh.
-
Strange indeed.
-
And so Jiroh looked at Kabaji.
-
Atobe looked at Kabaji.
-
And Kabaji looked between the both of them unsure of how to answer.
-
This is getting us nowhere, Atobe thought to himself. "Ahem," Atobe interrupted to bring Kabaji's attention solely to him. "Ne, Kabaji," he finished up with his trademark question.
-
"Usu."
-
"Well if you insist…"
-
"Eh!" Jiroh jumped in. "What did he say? What did he say?"
-
"He wants me to give you a tour of my house," Atobe said trying to keep a straight face. There's no way that he would believe—
-
"Wow that's just like Kabaji! It's so awesome that you can understand him so well."
-
Atobe shook his head in disbelief. And these were suppose to be the gems of Hyoutei…
-
"Well come along then," Atobe said slipping once again into his princely role. "You shouldn't keep your host waiting."
-
And so Atobe started the tour with Kabaji solemnly following and Jiroh chirping about around him.
-
This weekend would be one to remember.
-
Whether that's a good or bad thing he had yet to decide.
A/N: Sorry for the delay but it's longish compared to the other's at least. Another thing, I change the filter from KabaJiroh to AtobeJiroh. Only because the latter seems to have more of an interaction even though KabaJiroh sounds better. They share part of their names which each other after all! I have this habbit now of spelling Jiroh as Jirou for some reason. His name looks nice either way maybe Jirou is the evvil twin of Jiroh or something.
