Split Personality Disaster
Ch. 3 – Neighbours!
KAGOME POV
[{!.!}]
Thursday, August 23th 2007
We finally finished unpacking everything and we were ready to explore the neighbourhood.
My mom, my brother and I went walking to find the school and timed ourselves to see how long it would take and if we were in a rush, which way we should take, since there were two ways to get to my new school.
There was a huge park near there, too.Me and brother could ride our bikes one day,I was thinking.
Yah you could.
Oh hey Mini-Kags, what's up?
Sometimes it's good to have somebody in your head, even if you don't know who that somebody is, and what they want. At least they keep you company.
You know thinking to yourself when I'm here, is pretty stupid. Especially thinking about me.
Oh, right, forgot about you there for a minute or two…I mentally chuckled.
STOP TEASING ME LIKE THAT!
I guess Mama noticed me zoning out in her terms, since technically I wasn't, I was just talk-thinking to myself. "Kagome, dear, are you okay?"
"Yah, sis, you've been zoning out for a bit. Anything wrong?"
"Kagome, it's ok that you're moving, think of it as a challenge. You don't need to worry about that kind of stuff." Mama said, trying to console me.
You weren't even thinking of anything like that.
I know. But I'm gonna play along.
"It's okay Mama. I don't care about the moving part. It's the whole friends' part. Souta makes friends easily. I don't. He even forgets his old friends. I don't."
"It's alright, dear. I know you can make new friends. At least the friends you make are good friends, even if you take long. Souta makes very careless friends. Most of them just use him."
"All friends use each other, Mama."
You don't.
Shut up Mini-Kags, this conversation is between me and my Mama.
"You don't Kagome." Mama said, replying to my last statement.
Told you so.
I mentally growled, warning my conscious to shut up.
"Hey look sis! There's a guy and a girl standing outside our house." Souta ran and yelled at the same time, pulling me away from my "private" thoughts.
Mama and I calmly strode up to our new home and welcomed them. The lady reminded me of someone.
She was –
"…your son's teacher in grade one." The lady was talking to Mama.
Yah, what I was about to say…my conscious whined.
Hey! I do not whine. Well…most of the time…
HA! I was right then?
YAH, YAH. Now you better reply to the girl, she's starting o look at you like you're crazy.
Why?
Cause you're smiling all weird. ..
Oh! I'll get you for this Mini-Kag!
You can't. I'm your conscious so you can't exactly embarrass me in front of everyone!
I hate you…
I love you too…
[({..**..})]
Hmmmm…Mini-Kags, what do you think about THESE neighbours? They seem nicer, no? Well not the Indians, they seem kind of distant….like they'll take a while to get used to us.
…
Mini-Kags, are you there?
Yah, yah. You know, you're not exactly allowed to call me out like that…
So? You call me out like that.
Well, I was taking a nap. You don't see me invading your sleep!
… Bye! I'm gonna play ball, you can watch if you want!
Stop acting so god damn sweet!
But I AM sweet and you know it!
So anyways, I was playing catch with the girl, we've become friends already! WOW!
Yah, WOW!
Stop interrupting me, I'm trying to tell my life story to my diary!
Don't you mean, write?
Arrrggghhh, stop it! You're such a bum! Anyways, you know that I'm writing whatever you're saying, right? So whoever reads this is in the future, will know how big of a bum you are!
They'll just think you're weird. But I'll stop, for now…
Thank the Lord! Anyways, we were playing catch. I guess I kind of forgot about my arm, cause I always loved baseball, and well, when I threw next, it kinda went really fast and the girl didn't see the ball… It hit her neck. I think she almost died…
MURDERER! Everyone, there's a killer out here!
No one can hear you, dummy…
Right…Continue on…

All of a sudden her brother started laughing hysterically, and we ALL turned to look at him with confused expressions. He was all like, "Did you see her face? Oh man!" And he kept on laughing.
While everyone went to help the girl out, I stood there staring at the kid, who by-the-way, was still manically giggling. For a second I thought he was a girl. He stopped laughing as he felt my stare and asked, "What?"
"How old are you?"
"I'm 8 years old. I'm in grade 4!" He said proudly.
"You sure act like a one year old…" I grumbled…and unfortunately, he heard.
"I'm acting like a one year old? Who's the one grumbling?" he started laughing again.
This time I ignored him and went to the sister… "Are you okay? I'm really very sorry. I forgot about my arm…" I said sheepishly.
"You arm?" she questioned.
"Yah, I went to baseball for the past few years, and I forgot about my throw…"
"That's okay, you just forgot, it's not like you planned it or something!"
"Of course not! Who would even THINK of doing such a thing?"
"Never mind…Anyways, what's your name, I forgot to ask you." This time she asked sheepishly.
"Oh. My name's Kagome, what about you? You're Eri, right?"
"How'd you know?"
"Oh, well, you're brother called you that?" I ended my sentence like a question, and I think she understood.
"Oh, it's all right, you can call me Eri. My friend Ayumi is the one living in number 85. I think you'll like her. She's really nice. And I think she has a brother that's in the same grade as you. What grade are you in again?"
"Grade 7…"
"Oh yah, then you'll meet her brother. His name's Hojo."
"Hojo?"
"Yah, Hojo, you know him?"
"Nooo…it's just that his name sounds like Mojo Jojo from the Powerpuff Girls!" I laughed.
She joined in. "You still watch that?"she asked in between breaths.
"No." I said stopping immediately. "I just have a good memory." I smiled brightly.
"You're funny. I think we'll be good friends!"
"I think so, too." I said happily.
I think so too, Kagome. You made a nice friend.
And for the first time since I heard Mini-Kags, I agreed with her.
