Rukia stepped out of the car in front of an old fashioned but huge Japanese-styled house. It was her first visit to their old home after their parent's death. She didn't want to be here to relive all the painful memories, but was forcefully sent back to Japan by her brother, Byakuya. It wasn't just a visit, he wanted her to stay here and go to college. Was he crazy? She couldn't even bear to look at the house. How was she going to stay here?
Unohana-san, the caretaker, showed Rukia her room. Most of her things from way back were still there. However, the place seemed foreign to her. Having to stay away from her brother made it all the more difficult.
A week later, Rukia had been enrolled in a university in Tokyo since her brother was adamant on ignoring her plea to return to Washington DC. What was his deal anyway? Why did he suddenly ship her off to Tokyo? If her brother was hardheaded, the she was too. She decided to live in a hostel where she won't be lonely and then she could get away form this horrible place.
First day of college in a totally unknown city, any other person would be shaking in their boots, but Rukia was a brand of her own. She stepped out of her car and walked in as if she owned the place. The classed dragged on for the rest of the day and Rukia would've died of boredom if she hadn't made friends. Tatsuki and Orihime were in almost all her classes, so in any case that was a plus point. Now she had to take care of only one thing and that was her living arrangement. She wasn't able to get a place in the hostel due to them being already full. She looked for apartments, but they were too far from the campus and she hated to drive too far first thing in the morning.
"Rukia-chan do you want to have dinner with us?" Orihime hollered so loudly that half of the parking lot heard her. She didn't want to say no, but…
"Sorry Orihime-chan, but I have to go look for some apartments today before it's too late."
"Don't you have a place to stay?" Orihime asked with a worried expression.
Rukia sighed and began to explain her situation. Tatsuki had joined them in the mean time. When Rukia finished her story, both Tatsuki and Orihime had a Cheshire cat grin on their faces.
"Your problem is already solved, so lets just go and get something to eat. Right Orihime?" Tatsuki said as if she had figured out every thing, and Rukia had no idea of what she was thinking.
Three days later Rukia had all her stuff moved into her new apartment, which she shared with Orihime and Tatsuki. Currently she was getting ready to go to a club, where they were going to introduce her to their group of friends, guys included. She made an extra effort to dress-up because you never know when you meet someone who catches your attention and the other way around.
