BleachMyStory Story1: Reunion of Friend and Relative

Finally the plane lands in Japan after 15 hours.

Hisekcho: I'll finally get to see Yumiko again.

Hanreiki's been my best friend since elementary. She can't speak due to a strange scar on her neck. She has to wear a strange bandage around her neck just to help her breathe-and hide her terrible scar. She had to leave for Japan early because they had excellent doctors who could help with her condition.

When Hisekcho finally gets off the plane, she looked around the airport searching for Yumiko. It was crowded and the streets are busy with the sounds of cars and people talking on cell phones and sending messages on beepers. Then she felt a tap on my shoulder. Hisekcho turns around then suddenly, a girl with long black and blue eyes leaps on top of her.

Hisekcho: Hanreiki!

She hugged Hisekcho so tight that she couldn't breathe.

Hisekcho: Okay Hanreiki that's enough. Seriously I can't breathe!

Yumiko finally releases her.

Hisekcho: How'd you know it was me?

Hanreiki pointed at the book that Hisekcho was holding with the bookmark.

Hisekcho: Oh yeah, after all this time you still remember me by my book huh?

Hanreiki gave her a sad look which means "Is that all? I bet you think I only know you because you're always carrying a book around."

Hanreiki usually uses sign language when around other people. But she doesn't have to around me, because I understand her so well.

Hisekcho: No, no Hanreiki I didn't mean it like that. I mean you would always know it was me because we've known each other for a long time.

Hanreiki suddenly starts to smile and hugs Hisekcho again.

After they left the airport, they went to their new apartment.

It's a fairly big average size place with two floors. The first floor consists of three rooms, the living room, the kitchen/dining room, and the second floor has a bathroom at the end of the hallway. Each side of the hall contains three rooms. The middle room on the left is Hisekcho's and the last room is Hanreiki's. The rest are vacant guest rooms filled with books.

Since Hanreiki moved to Japan only two weeks before Hisekcho, the place still had a lot of boxes around the place. Yumiko grabbed Hisekcho's hand and pulls upstairs to her room. It was a bit bigger than her room back in Mexico. Hisekcho hurried unpacked her things so she can help Hanreiki unpack everything else.

After a few hours of unpacking, there was a knock on the door. Hisekcho went to answer it. It was her grandmother, Hamasaki Chukei.

Chukei: Well it's about time. You didn't wait for me at the airport. And to top it all off, you didn't come to visit me.

Hisekcho: Hello grandma, I didn't even know you were going to pick me up.

Chukei: Well then since you're here-

She stopped and looks in the apartment.

Chukei: Looks like you just finished fixing up the place. And you are so rude as to not invite me in.

Hisekcho: Sorry grandma. Please come in.

She came in and sat down on one of the chairs in the kitchen. Grandma's always like this, being mean and sarcastic with people. You get used to it once you truly know her, though.

Chukei: Well then down to business. Here I have in my hand are the registration forms for your transfers at your new school; starting next week you'll be attending your new school, Kuraka High.

She gives Hisekcho and Hanreiki an envelope.

Chukei: I'll come by every month to visit and pay the rent. There is also the school uniforms placed in your closets.

She was just about to get up to leave when Hisekcho stops her.

Chukei: I'll call you a cab so you could get home. Would you like anything to drink?"

She smiled.

Chukei: There now you're being a nice granddaughter.
