Chapter 26 – The Fifth Grader's Summer Camp: My Onii-chan

"So, otousan, you suggested to the headmaster to held the summer camp for the fifth graders?"

"Uh-huh, that's right, Poppu."

"Hmm, don't say if Poppu and the other fifth graders will get their summer camp in the forest where we got the summer camp when I was still in the sixth grade."

"Actually, we'll go there."

"Yosh! I'm happy that you'll follow us, otousan."

"Okay, so... otousan will leave me here."

"Okaasan, you're not alone. I'll stay here during this summer vacation."

It was the conversation in the dining room in Harukaze's house, when the Harukaze's family got their dinner. Pop and the other fifth graders in Misora elementary school would get the summer camp at the same forest where Doremi and the others (except Onpu) with some of their classmates got their summer camp three years ago, and Mr. Harukaze would follow the summer camp (Pop's summer camp).

"No no no. Dame. I'll go to Fukuyama and take care of your ojiisan there. You know that he's sick now, right?" said Mrs. Harukaze, "Doremi, you'll go with Poppu and otousan."

"What?"

"Well, there will be a story sharing about your summer camp, so... you and all of your friends get the special invitation." Said their father.

"A story sharing?" asked Doremi.

"Yes." Pop said, "All of my friends want to know about your experience there."

"Okay, but... Poppu, can we talk as an older sister and her younger sister in your room? I want to give you some suggestions about everything that you must prepare to face the forest."

"Yosh! Let's we go to my room!"

Then, they went upstairs, to Pop's room.

In Pop's room, Doremi said, "Poppu, do you want me to say that my group's curry spilled so that the other groups had to share their curry to us? Or... do you want me to say that I lost my way with Kotake when we sought some stamps that hidden by Nishizawa-sensei?"

"Not only that. This time, I want us, the Star and the Heart, spend the summer vacation together." Pop said, "Especially Onpu-chan, because she couldn't follow to the summer camp three years ago, right?"

"Huh, okay, I agree for that ones."

At Misora elementary school.

All of the fifth graders and some of their senior who got the summer camp three years ago were there, waited for the teachers who wanted to gave some announcement about the summer camp.

Their homeroom teachers divided them into some 4 members groups for cook the curry as the lunch and also, for the game. Pop was in the same group with Anita, Erika, and Kimitaka. Ranami was in the same group with Misaki, Fumio, and Kenta. Machiko was in the same group with Dira, Sayaka, and Miniko.

"Huh, minna, I don't wanna be alone in my group. Even, I'm the only one girl in my group." Ranami sighed.

"Daijoubu yo, Ran-chan. I, you, and Anita-chan still can sleep in the same camp. Let's we hear the camp's groups." Pop said.

They heard the announcement about the camp's groups. Pop was right. Ranami would sleep in the same camp with Pop and Anita, plus with Erika. Meanwhile, Machiko would sleep in the same camp with Dira, plus with Sayaka and Chika.

"Okay, now... we'll hear about our tutors." Pop said.

"Tutors?" said the other Star.

Pop nodded, "Yup! Fifteen tutors for fifteen groups from 5-1 and 5-2, and they're including the Heart."

Then, all of the tutors stood up in front of their juniors. They were Doremi, Hazuki, Aiko, Onpu, Momoko, Kotake, Masaru, Nanako, Shimakura, Sagawa, Ota, Sato (the SOS trio), Sugiyama, Ogura (Toyoken), and Rinno.

Their homeroom teachers commanded them (the fifth graders) to formed a line with their own game groups.

"Poppu-chan, who'll be our tutor?" asked Anita.

"Hmm, I don't know. Otousan just said to me that we'll need our tutor to make us don't disperse. We'll walk in the forest for the game tomorrow. Each groups will walk on the different ways, and our tutor will tell us the way which we'll walk on." Pop said.

"Uh, sou ka."

Then, the game groups had to have one of them to take a number from 1 to 15.

"Let me take it. I'm the only one boy in this group." Kimitaka said.

"Okay, that's a rational reason." Pop sighed, a bit annoyed.

"Ran-chan, we want you to take the number." Misaki said.

"Hontou ni?" said Ranami, "Alright. I'll take it."

Then, Sayaka took the number for Machiko and Dira's game group.

The tutors took the another number which available for them, from 1 to 15 too.

The homeroom sensei commanded the fifth graders and the tutors to open the number at the same time, and they opened it.

The tutors called the game groups which got the same number with them.

"Ichi! Ichi! (1)" yelled Hazuki, "Which group have ichi?"

"Onii-chan!" said Pop, called Kotake, "Our number is 6, like the number which you got."

"Onii-chan?" asked Kotake, didn't understand with what he heard.

"Someday, you'll be my older brother. You know, when you get married with onee-chan, and that's why, I think that I must adjust myself to call you 'onii-chan'."

"Uh, so you agree if I get married with your older sister?"

"Sure, mochiron yo." Pop whispered, "Your necklace prove your love, and I know that you can make onee-chan happy."

"Arigatou, Poppu. You trust me."

Aiko came to Ranami, Misaki, Fumio, and Kenta.

"Ai-nee, you have nana (7). You're our tutor." Ranami said.

"I know, and that's why I come here." Aiko answered.

Dira said to Momoko, "Over here! We have eight! Acht!"

"Dira-chan, Machi-chan, I'll be your tutor! It's great!" said Momoko, "Unfortunately, the tutor's camp just can contain two or three of us."

"So, who will sleep in the same camp with you?" asked Dira.

"Well, I'll sleep in the same camp with Doremi-chan, then the other Heart will sleep together in another camp. Kotake-kun will sleep in the same camp with Masaru-kun and Rinno-kun. Nanako with Shimakura, and there will be a special camp for the SOS trio and Toyoken.

"We see." Machiko and Dira said together.

Then, they went to the forest by bus. The tutors were in the same bus with the homeroom teachers and Mr. Harukaze.

Doremi knew that Kotake would be Pop's tutor in the summer camp, so she said to him, "Can you take care of Poppu when you become her tutor?"

"Sure, of course I can, and I'll." Kotake said, "She's my would be younger sister."

"Okay, I know that I can trust you." Doremi said, "Otousan, where are the other seniors? You said that all of my friends got the special invitation to follow the summer camp, and we would have a story sharing."

"They're... some of them departed this early morning, before us, and the others couldn't follow us. They have their own bustle."

'Bustle? In summer vacation?' Doremi thought, 'Usou. That's so strange for me.'

Then, two hours later, they arrived at the camps.

After they pitched their own tent, they cooked the curry for lunch. The fifth graders discussed with their tutors about the curry which they would cook.

"Onii-chan, what's the better curry for us to cook?" asked Pop.

"Hmm, let me see..." said Kotake, "In my camp three years ago, my group planned to cook the... seafood curry, and I think... we can cook it now."

"Seafood curry? It sounds great. Minna, is there one of you who mind if we cook the seafood curry?" asked Pop to Anita, Erika, and Kimitaka.

They shook of their head, told that they didn't mind.

"Of course I didn't mind." Anita said, "I love seafood."

"My cousin said that seafood curry is good." Erika said, "I think, it isn't wrong if we want to cook it."

"It's up to you, gals." Kimitaka said, "I don't know too much about cooking."

"I know that you'll say it, Kimitaka-kun." Pop said.

Before Kimitaka said some words to 'fight' with Pop, Erika said, "Err, Poppu-chan, Kimitaka-kun, would you mind if I want both of you to cut the onions? I don't want if I cut it, the knife can hurt my fingers, or... if my eyes smart from the onion."

Actually, she did it just to make Pop and Kimitaka to be nearer than before (as she knew from her cousin, Tamaki Reika, that Doremi and Kotake cut the onions for their curry three years ago, so she wanted if Pop and Kimitaka would be like them). She caught that Kimitaka loved Pop, and it was his chance to be nearer with her.

"Uh, daijoubu. That's okay for me. I wouldn't mind." Pop agreed.

"Alright. Where's the onion?" said Kimitaka, "I'll cut it."

"Well, I'm happy to hear that." Erika smiled, "Okay, Anita-chan, let's we prepare some fishes, squids, shells, and shrimps for the curry, and the spicy that we need."

"One more, Erika-chan. We need to prepare the pan and the firewood for cooking, and of course, the rice." Anita added.

"Don't worry about the firewood." Kotake said, "The school have already prepared it for you all, and now... let me take the firewood. You just need to prepare the stuff for the curry."

Meanwhile, Aiko gave some suggestion to Ranami, Misaki, Fumio, and Kenta.

"Okay, Ran-chan. We need the clean rice for the curry, so you must wash it at the river." Aiko said.

"Yosh! I wanna go to the river!" Ranami walked to the river and washed the rice, "Wow, what a clean river! The water is so clear."

"That's it!" Aiko nodded, "That's why, we can use it to wash the rice."

In Machiko and Dira's group, Dira sang a song with german while she cooked the curry.

"Im frühtau zu Berge wir ziehn, fallera,
es grünen alle Wälder, alle Höh'n, fallera!
Wir wandern ohne Sorgen singend in den Morgen,
noch ehe im Tale die Hähne krähn."

"Dira-chan, what song do you sing?" asked Machiko.

"I sing 'Im frühtau zu Berge'." Dira explained, "I like to sing this song with my friends in Germany, when we were camping there."

"Let me hear it. I want to hear more about this song."

"Okay." then, Dira continued to sing.

"Ihr alten und hochweisen Leut', fallera,
ihr denkt wohl, wir wären nicht gescheit, fallera?
Wer wollte aber singen,
wenn wir schon Grillen fingen
in dieser herrlichen Frühlingszeit?

Werft ab alle Sorgen und Qual, fallera,
und wandert mit uns aus dem Tal, fallera!
Wir sind hinausgegangen
den Sonnenschein zu fangen:
Kommt mit und versucht es doch selbst einmal!"

(AN: I don't care if this song didn't tell about summer.)

Then, their curry were cooked. All of the tutors could taste the curry from all groups.

"Hmm, delicious." Momoko said while she tasted the curry from group 1 (which the tutor was Hazuki), "Oishii."

"Hey, what happened with this curry?" asked Aiko while she commented the curry from group 2, "It's too hot!"

"Huh, guys, I've already told you, don't add the chilli powder too much!" said Sato, the tutor of the group 2.

"Yes, Sato-senpai..." said the member of group 2.

"Well, it's enough." Rinno Masato said to his junior in group 3 (as he was their tutor).

"How about the curry from group 4?" asked Kaori Shimakura to the other tutors (as she was the tutor of the group 4), "Is it too 'click' for your taste?"

"Clicky." Doremi said, "It's enough for my taste."

"Good job, gals. It's oishii." Nanako Okada said to group 5 (as she was their tutor).

"Onee-chan! Onii-chan!" Pop called, "Try ours."

"Hey, seafood curry?" Doremi felt surprised that her younger sister cooked the curry which she, Kotake, and their group planned to cook three years ago (before Hana-chan put some sweets inside it and made it to become weird). She saw Kotake, "Hmm, I think... I know who have the idea to cook it."

She and the other tutors tasted it, and she commented, "Hmm... it's..."

Pop was so impatiently to hear her older sister's comment, so she said, "It's what, onee-chan?"

Doremi kept silenced for a minutes, then she continued her comment. She yelled, "Oishii! I like it!"

"Hontou ni?"

Doremi nodded, "Hontou, and the onion slice is so... perfect. Who does cut it?"

"Me." Pop said, "and... Kimitaka."

Heard Pop's answer made Doremi choked on the curry (as she remembered that she and Kotake cut the onions for their curry too three years ago).

Kotake asked her, "Daijoubu desuka?"

"Uh, yes. Sure, daijoubu yo. I just... need a glass of water. I'm so thirsty after taste too much curry."

"Uh, okay."

"So, how about you, onii-chan?" asked Pop, "Is it good?"

"Well, this is a perfect seafood curry. You all really do it better than us three years ago."

"That's right." Doremi said after she drank a glass of water, agreed what Kotake said.

"Yeah, it was so confused. Hana made our curry became weird, then you spilled it." Kotake saw his girlfriend and smiled.

Doremi sighed, "Okay, I know it. I spilled it in that time."

"Sis. Bro. Try our curry." Ranami said.

"Hmm..." Onpu tasted the curry and whispered to the other Heart, "I think, the taste is as delicious as the curry that you all sent to me three years ago."

"Of course. Ran-chan cooks it with my direction." Aiko replied, "So, no wonder if she can do it as well as I can."

"Machi-chan, Dira-chan, it's a good curry." Hazuki said, "Momo-chan, it's really a combination from the west and east taste."

"Well, thanks, Hazuki-chan." Momoko said, "Arigatou."

When they tried the curry from group 11, Doremi, as the tutor of the group, asked, "Minna, how about the taste?"

"Hmm, beef curry?" Kotake said while he tasted it, "Well, it's so delicious."

The others nodded, agreed with his opinion.

Then, they tried the other curry until the curry from group 15 (which Onpu was the tutor of).

"Hey, it's delicious!" said Hazuki, "Onpu-chan, do you know what curry is it?"

"It's chicken curry." Onpu explained, "I suggest them to use chicken because it has less fat than beef. I don't want if they become fat because they eat beef too much."

"Uhm, can you repeat what you say?" Doremi glanced at Onpu, as she was the one who suggested the group 11 to make the beef curry.

"Uh, calm down. I mean... you can eat beef, just... don't eat it too much. You can eat it once if you want."

"Okay." sighed Doremi, "I know you'll say it."

At night.

All of the fifth graders, the tutors, and the homeroom teachers (including Mr. Harukaze) were already sleeping, except both of the tutors who stared at the stars in the sky, Doremi and Kotake.

Firstly, Doremi was there alone. Then, Kotake walked out from his tent and saw her, and then came to her. He asked her, "Don't you want to sleep yet?"

"Yeah. I want to see the stars in the sky."

"The Stars?" asked Kotake, "They aren't in the sky. They're in their own camp." (he was kidding that the stars which Doremi meant were Pop and her friends)

"Hey, you know what I mean, and it's not them." Doremi laughed, then she added, "Huh, well... tonight is a starry night here, and I think... it's so wonderful. Suteki ne."

She paid her attention back to the sky, then sat down on the ground, still saw the stars.

Kotake sat down beside her and followed what she did, and he said, "Ah, hontou da. It's... so wonderful."

"By the way, about the stars... I think, I had a foreboding that we would get the big star stamp three years ago, when we followed Nishizawa-sensei's crazy game."

"Hontou ni? What foreboding did you have?"

"Well, I'm not sure, but... I dreamed that a big star fell above me at the school yard."

"What were you doing there when it happened... in your dream?"

"Err, I... I wanted to give a love letter to someone."

"Who?"

"Wakkanai." Doremi shook of her head, "I didn't meet him yet in my dream."

"Uh, I see." Kotake said, "He must be... me." (he was kidding again)

"Kotake..." the couple laughed for a few minutes.

After they stopped to laugh, Doremi said, "If only I didn't make the paper gone, our group would be the winner of the game, and we didn't need to do our summer vacation's homework."

"Doremi, don't blame yourself. It was our fault. Moreover, I didn't care about that stupid and crazy game."

They saw at each other and smiled.

Suddenly, they yawned at the same time.

"Sleepy?" they asked at each other and laughed.

"Well, let's we walk back into our own tent." Doremi said, "Oyasumi!"

"Oyasumi!"

Then, they walked back into their own tent and slept.
