Sorry I didn't update sooner I didn't really have access to a computer... :P So here's Sonika! Yay~ She's so cool X3


Gumi walked quietly through the Zero-G wing of the mansion At the end of the hallway was a yellow door painted with bright green swirls, and 'SONiKA' written in loopy handwriting. From behind it, Gumi heard music blasting.

"Sonika?"

"Come in!" the Engloid called over the music. Gumi walked in to find Sonika spinning and dancing around the room, singing along to a song called 'Centrifugal Cindi'.

"Hey Gumi! What's up?" Sonika asked turning down the music so they could talk.

"Could I get some advice?" Gumi had thought of Sonika as sort of an older-sister figure (ever since Sonika's release that is) and thought she might have some good ideas.

"About what?" Sonika opened her minifridge and tossed Gumi a carrot, before getting a bottle of lime soda for herself.

"About romance…"

"Ohhhh, I see," Sonika winked. "With who?"

"Gumo." Gumi was kind of tired of covering it up so she just stated it plainly, then took a big bite out of her carrot.

"Aww." Sonika cooed. "So what's the problem?"

"I just don't know if he likes me back."

"That's a pretty common worry. But why are you asking me, I'm not really romantically involved with anyone." Sonika asked, taking a drink from her soda.

Gumi shrugged. "You always have some good thoughts about life in general."

"I'm flattered." Sonika smiled.

"It's just… I always act so weird around him, like I can't control myself. If I'm gonna hide it and not 'fess up I need act normal."

"Well why hide it? If you ever want to be with him he has to know, and you need to tell him."

"Yeah but only if he says it to me first!" Gumi said. "Because it'd be totes embarrassing if I made this big mushy confession and then he doesn't like me back." She sighed.

"What if he's thinking the same exact thing about you right now? Then you two will just keep going around each other in circles and never end up together even if you both want to!" Sonika made little circles with the neck of her soda bottle. "Heartbreak is a part of life, and sometimes you have to just dive in and hope for the best. If he likes you, good! If he doesn't, then cry until you feel better." She patted Gumi on the back.

"It's not that easy though… I just get so nervous around him I'm hardly able to say anything, much less tell him about my undying love for him." Gumi sighed.

"Oh, so it's undying now?" Sonika laughed, earning herself a well-deserved punch in the arm.

"Then you should just keep spending time with him until you're comfortable around him, and then when you feel ready, say something."

"I guess…" Gumi looked down. Spend some time with him… it'd be easier to sprout wings and fly.

Just then Miki burst into the room.

"Gumi, I have the absolute best idea to find out who Neru's secret love is!"

"Lemme hear it!" Gumi jumped up.

"If she's texting this person all day all night, then wouldn't all the evidence be on her phone? We just need to get it from her and see who she messaged recently!"

Gumi noticed a gaping hole in this plan though. "How are we supposed to get it from her? She never lets it out of her sight."

"Oh yeah. I can't believe I forgot that." Miki facepalmed.

"If I may," Sonika spoke up, "she can't have it with her when it's charging…"

Miki and Gumi looked at each other, grinning from ear to ear. "Sonika, you're a genius!" Gumi shouted, as she and Miki jumped up to hug her.

"Well, I try." Sonika laughed, hugging them back.

"Now we just need to think of a way to know when she's charging it." Miki said, thinking.

"We could try calling and texting her constantly to run down the battery..." Gumi suggested.

"Sounds like a plan!" Miki gave a thumbs up. "And we could ask everyone else to help us!"

"We could get everyone in on this!" Gumi stood up and punched the air. "This could be the greatest thing ever!"

"Let's get started!" and with that the two girls ran out of the room.

Sonika laughed to herself. "Those two will get into so much trouble together."


So now everyone's going to help out... sounds like a recipe for disaster. XD
