As soon as Monk-san pulled out of the drive way Mai ran though the kitchen door. Followed by Ayako. She found Mai in Feather's stall, curled up in to a ball. Her shoulders shaking furiously. Ayako pulled Mai in to her arms. "I can't do this." Mai sobbed in Ayako's shoulder.

Naru listened to Mai crying and Ayako trying to calm her down. He stayed there until he couldn't take it any longer. I need to come up with a plan. He thought as he walked up to house. It took all of his strength not to go in to the stall and hold Mai to his chest.

The Triplets stayed in the same room that night, so Naru had to share with Gene. And Gene could tell that he wasn't happy.

"Naru, cheer up. We can catch up."

"On what?"

"I don't know… How about you and Mai?"

"There might not be a me and Mai, if the Bennet's win." Naru sighed, turning over so he showed Gene his back.

"Don't give up." Gene said, but Naru didn't hear it. He had already fallen asleep.

Nina and Minko woke up and went down stairs, leaving Mai alone to sleep.

All night Mai had stayed awake crying her eyes out. Excepting no comfort from her sisters.

Naru and Gene were already up the looked up and saw two of the sisters come down. "Where's Mai?" Naru asked.

Nina pointed her head to the stairs. Naru went up and saw that Mai's bed was empty but the bathroom door was closed. He looked around and found the same piece of paper. The one that said 'I miss you.' But this time the song was finished.

Sha-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la
You used to call me your angel
Said I was sent straight down from heaven
You'd hold me close in your arms

I loved the way you felt so strong
I never wanted you to leave
I wanted you to stay here holding me

I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you

You used to call me your dreamer
And now I'm living out my dream
Oh how I wish you could see
Everything that's happening for me
I'm thinking back on the past
It's true that time is flying by too fast

I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you

I know you're in a better place, yeah
But I wish that I could see your face, oh
I know you're where you need to be
Even though it's not here with me

I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you

I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you

I miss you

Naru realized that she wrote it for her adopted parents. Hmm, I wonder if Ayako-san and Monk-san had seen this.

He took the note pad and went down stairs. He dropped the note pad in front of the Monk. "What's this" The Monk asked. "Read it." Naru replied.

Ayako and the Monk read it. "Mai wrote it." Naru said.

"Wow, it's good really good. I knew she could write, but not this good. She writes what's in her heart." The Monk said.

Then Mai came down and noticed the notepad in Bou-san's hands. She frowned. "Mai when did you do this?" Ayako asked. "The night before last." Mai replied sitting down next to Naru.

"Mai this is good stuff. I'm very proud of you." Bou-san said ruffling her hair.

"How are you feeling?" Luella asked.

"Sick. I just finished throwing up."

"You were so upset last night you probably made yourself sick." Ayako said as she placed a hand on Mai's forehead. "Hmm, no fever. Go back up to bed and rest."

Mai nodded and went back up to her room. Naru followed.

Mai laid her head on his chest and went straight to sleep.

Sorry. Again this chapter was too short.

I borrowed the song from Miley Cyrus. I love this song. Miley sung wrote it for her grandfather years ago.

In the next chapter the court sessions begin. Who will win?

I know you want Monk-san and Ayako to win.
