I know!

Chapter 5
"Aaaaaghhhhhhhhhh!" Riku screamed from outside. Georgie and Horushi heard her so they quickly ran to her.
There, they saw Riku with- oh dear.
Kai: Why? What is it?
It's too brutal. I- I can't.
Kai: Just tell us!
Riku was lying on the street and...
Kai: And?
There was red liquid all over the place! It was so horrible, man!
Kai: WHAT?!
There was meat on the road and stuff, and-
Kai: Don't even say it anymore!
And Riku yelled, "That cat scratched my hamburger!" at the same time, pointing to a black alley cat. "I put in lots of ketchup and payed extra cash for this burger to have three patties! Now they're all over the place!"
Kai: -_- I should've known.
Riku: That was a really clean road :'(
"Riku, You scared the hell out of us!" Horushi said.
"First, my hammer; now, my burger! It's so unfair!"
"Riku, that's alright," Georgie comforted her. "Don't worry. Tomorrow, I'll buy you a new burger, is that alright?"
Riku's eyes lit up with joy. "Thanks, mom."
Suddenly, they heard Kai scream from around the corner.
Kai: Not this again...
Georgie, Horushi, and Riku ran up to her. There, they saw Kai with Evergreen, a regular customer of Omoro who suddenly began acting weird lately.
"Aaaaaaghhhhhhhhhh! I can't believe you actually did that!" Kai screamed again.
"Yes, I did," Evergreen said in a creepy voice.
"So, you really-"
"Yes, I did."
"Oh my gosh! I can't believe it! I mean, it's so..."
"Yes, it is."
"And then what happened?"
"Then, I-"
"Gaaaah! I'm sorry. Go on."
"I went-"
"Omigosh! Sorry. You may continue."
"To-"
"Flip-flop! Flippidy flip-flop! Gah! Oops, sorry."
Evergreen saw Horushi and suddenly remembered something.
"I... suddenly remembered something," she said.
"Kai, what's goin' on? Why are you screaming so... undelinquent-like? And why are you talking to her?" Horushi asked.
"I was just telling Kai something about Moo, Horushi. THAT'S ALL," Evergreen replied.
Horushi crossed his arms. "Let's go, Kai. It's bedtime."
"You're not my mom, Horushi," Kai said.
"What did you just say?" Horushi asked.
"Um, I mean - Dad. You're not my dad. Horushi."
"Humph."
"Guys-" Evergreen butted in. "Um... Would y'all just... uh, turn around?"
"Why?"
"Just turn around!"
Everyone turned around.
"Can we look now?" Riku asked.
Suddenly, some weird creature jumped in front of Riku!
Kai: Why are you surprised?!
'Cause I'm stressed out 'cause I don't know what words to use!
Riku screamed. Horushi turned around and saw a huge chiropteran directly in front of Riku.
"Riku!" he yelled.
Suddenly-
Kai: Why do you keep using the word "suddenly"?
Suddenly, a tall woman in black appeared out of nowhere.
Kai: Ah, I get it. The silent treatment.
Riku: Hagi to the rescue!
Hagina qucikly gives Horushi his sword, but he hesitates. "I- I can't... kill!"
She positioned Horushi's body into the stance he uses to attack.
"No!" Horushi pushed Hagina.
"Hey!" Georgie interrupted. "Horushi, if you don't want to fight," she took the spear from Hagina "then I'll fight for you."
"Mom, no!"
"Why not?"
"Before you kill her, I... I have to tell her something. Evergreen, look, I'm so sorry. Please, just-"
Suddenly, Evergreen attacked Georgie without warning and left.
Kai: So... That's it?
And left without any feelings of regret, although deep inside her, inside the Evergreen we used to know, she still... She still...
A single tear drop could be seen. And Horushi was the only one who noticed.
Kai: Another pairing?
'Cause his eyesight is so cool that he can see stuff that's really far away. So can Hagina but she wasn't looking.
Kai: I notice that your narrative skills are degrading.
Kai, Riku, and Horushi ran up to Georgie.
Riku: (to Kai) She's giving you the silent treatment.
"Riku, call an ambulance!" Kai said. She took her handkerchief and wrapped it around Georgie's really big wound. "Please stay alive, Mom."
Riku ran back home to get the phone. Horushi just sat there, staring. Hagina left without a trace again. Kai looked at Horushi. She sensed something, but decided not to ask. 'Poor Horu...' she thought.
EXTRA! EXTRA! EXTRA! EXTRA!
Kai: You're adding an extra scene without telling me? :(
Riku: She's giving you the silent treatment, remember?
A single teardrop could be seen. And Horushi was the only one who noticed.
(flashback)
Evergreen's POV
Kai: You just looooove POVs, don't you?
I have to hurry! Hurry! Hurry!
Riku: Even if she isn't ignoring you, she still can't reply to your sudden side comments during a POV.
Oh my gosh! I totally forgot that it was _'s birthday!
Note: I can't remember the name of Forest's girlfriend so I can't make a gender-swapped name for her, therefore we'll all just call him _ for now.
Kai: Okay...
I have to go get CCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaKK E! Geez, this is so tiring! All that sitting down and constantly standing just to chores and stuff! I hate mornings! Plus, there was this - Ow!
That hurt! Huh? Ugh, it's this weird guy from the Miyagusuku family! He keeps eating all the Omoro Special Pancakes! I mean, it's like there's this black hole in his stomach that leads to a different dimension or something! Geez!
"Oh, I'm sorry!" he said. It's a good thing that he helped me get up. I am in such a hurry!
"It's alright," I said, being all plastic and stuff. Wait - I'll just ask him if Omoro has any cake! "Oh! You're that guy from Omoro, right? Your name is... uh..."
"My name is-"
"Shhh! I'm thinking!"
"Okay-"
"Be quiet!"
"..."
"It's Hiroshi, right?"
"No, it's Horushi."
"Huroshi. Just as I said."
"Ho-ru-shi."
"SHH BE QUIET THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT!" I yelled. Geez, this guy is soooooo annoying! Plus he has a really weird name! "So, Huroshi, does Omoro have any cake?"
"Actually, yes."
He led me to Omoro where I saw this really huge cake! It's as big as me and it's dark dark dark dark chocolate! CHOCOLATE! Oozing with chocolate and stuff! CHOCOLATE!
"Oh... my..." I didn't even know how my face looked like but I totally didn't care about my looks during that time! It was my dream cake! Bad news is that that cake isn't for me, but I'm sure _ will share it with me!
"It costs ten yen," Huroshi said.
I was all like, "TEN YEN?! YOU"VE GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!" But I didn't say that aloud. Just in my mind. So I was completely quiet for the very first time.
"I know what you're thinking," he continued, "too cheap, eh? Don't know about Mom, she's always weird during summer."
"I'LL TAKE IT!" I said, holding out ten yen to him.
I was so delighted that I dougied. I was expecting him to give me my dream cake, but he gave me a cupcake instead! I was all like, "WHAT?! What about my dream cake?!" This time, I said it out loud.
"Oh, that cake?" he said, pointing out to my dream cake. "That's for me. You see, it's my birthday today." He smiled.
My body felt like glass shards, the ground felt like hell. My bones felt like weeds, my teeth lost enamel. The light reflected upon my eyes, my eyes of corneas cold as ice, colors I see turned negative, the pain in my guts could not forgive. My aura was put out, my soul was broken. My heart could not shout for what had just happened.
"Uh, excuse me. Miss?"
I was frozen, I was lost. Deep inside, my lymph is frost.
"Hello?"
My spine has failed, my nerves collapsed. The regret and pain inside me wraps.
"Look, you can have your money back."
All my selfish actions...
"Uh..."
...defeated me.
"I'm really sorry."
No- I defeated myself. All of this was caused my me. I created my own misery.
"Look, I really can't stand you looking like that."
I trapped myself in this eternal darkness.
"You can have my cake."
What was that?
"You can have my cake."
I see a light...
He gave me the cake. But I was still frozen. I couldn't move. My body was cold, but my face was so warm.
"You really don't have to blush about this."
BLUSH?! Am I blushing?! What am I blushing about?! What's going on?
End of POV
(end of flashback)
Well, that's the end of everything! Except the entire story itself!
Kai: 0o0
What?
Kai: That flashback was totally missing a lot of thoughts!
That flashback was just about how they first met. Horushi was still new to Okinawa back then and Evergreen wasn't a chiropteran yet. As you have read, Georgie acts weird during summer. Therefore, the timeframe of that flashback is summer. The end.
Kai: Oh -_-
Official End of Chapter
Kai: Hey, you're not giving me the silent treatment anymore :D
END OF CHAPTER!
