Split Personality Disaster

Ch. 4 – New Friends

KAGOME POV

[{!.!}]

Wednesday. September 5th 2007

I made friends with my two-door-down neighbours. I already started looking at them like they were family. Unfortunately I hadn't realized that THAT would be my downfall in the near future. Anyways…I was walking to school with the new girl, her name was…errr…what was it again? ….

Mini-Kags! This is where you come in!

Oh…huh?...riiigghht! Err…the girl's name was…ummm…hold on…OH YAH! Kikyou!

Oh yah! Thank you!

So yah, I was walking with Kikyou, her little brother Akira, and my brother Souta. We each split up according to grade, except Kikyou who came with me. At first I thought it was to help me become friends with the others of my grade, even though I was capable of doing it myself. I frowned mentally.

As we got nearer to the girls, I noticed that there were three that looked almost identical. Though, I somehow pinpointed their differences almost immediately.

I stood there outside the group feeling shy and left out. They noticed, the triplets, and hugged me, which I found extremely uncomfortable, and laughed at my expression. Everyone gathered around me and started exclaiming. I panicked, and glanced wildly about me. Yet again, they all chuckled and called over the boys. The boys were just like…well boys?

Anyways, the girls again started squealing about how cool my eyes were, and I was just like huh? Cause, of course, since at my old school everyone knew me since I was little, they didn't exclaim about my eyes and make me feel all weird. After about an eternity, they explained, how my eyes were a really light brown, almost a hazel. Apparently, Kikyou just noticed and stared at me, and I ducked my head down, not knowing what to do with all the unwanted attention I was receiving.

Thankfully, Hitaru-sensei, chose that time to appear.

[({..**..})]

He was really wide and tall. Only, all of it seemed to be muscle, so I didn't comment, except, I let my eyes go wider than they already were. He glanced down at me, the new face, and stuck out a hand. I gladly took it and introduced myself, all the while gaining more and more attention.

As we entered class, I realized the reason as to why Hitaru-sensei had taken a long time to come outside. Because he was still setting up. His desk was a clutter, but at least our desks were arranged properly and… had name tags on them? Oh, they were pre-designated seats, rows of three. In front of me, in order from left to right, were Hojo, hey! The kid with the weird name. Anyways, in the middle was…. errr…I- don't-know, and finally, Mareku, who looked really nice. To my left, was this annoying dude, Padiku (what kind of name is that?) and to my right, a dude named Yomo. ? Oh god, what kind of names are these?

Oh well, names are names… I turned around to get a good look of all my peers and found one of the triplets sitting in t he back. Her name was Tokime. I asked what the names of her sisters were, and she replied Rahime, and Hotaru. Their names are almost the same…at least I can tell them apart, not that they know that…

You should tell them that…

And what, per say? Make them put a test on me?

ERRR…you should answer Mareku, he's looking at you all weird, but…

Feh. God help me!

"Hi! You're Mareku-san, right? Sorry, I don't know your last name."

"No problem. Just call me Mareku, no formalities, all right?" He smiled brightly. At least I found someone like me.

"Ok then, only if you call me Kagome!" I smiled back, just as brightly, if not more.

"Of course. Anways, you draw really nice. What are those letters, I know they say your name…"

"Oh, they're a type of calligraphy."

"Really. That's so cool! Care to teach me?"

"Honestly, if I remembered, I would. Except, it's been a long time since I've last used it, and I've forgotten most of the letters. If you look closely, you can tell that my 'm,' is totally messed up." I grinned sheepishly, and he was quick to analyze the situation and the letter.

"Oh, it's quite alright! Well, how old are you?"

"Err… that's a stupid question, I'm turning 12 this January."

"12? But we're all turning 13… did you skip a grade?"

"Noooooo…."

You're turning 13, you dummy! Just because your dad had a miracle and survived doesn't mean you get any younger!

But I AM young! And riiiigghhtt! Thank you! And thank the Lord, my Daddy had a miracle, now stop being so mean!

She, of all people, admonishes ME…

Errr….yah…stop using big words! And we're the same person, just to give you an update. P.S. What's it with you and helping me these days?

Well, you've gotten less annoying…I think…or it's just me getting used to you. And since I'm in your head anyways, might as well be nice….Mini-Kags grumbles.

Hey!

Sorry, sorry! And can I call you something else? Mini-Kags is too weird…no offense or anything…

Of course…

Stop being so sarcastic and give me another name to call you!

Well, isn't someone just peachy… I'll give you another name later…but right now, you'd probably want to answer Mareku…he's looking at you weird again…

"Wait, let me see…" I started listing all the teachers I've had, according to grade. When he realized I finished. He said, "Think carefully about how old you are turning this January."

"12." I answered immediately. Then I realized. "Oops, I mean, I'm turning 13, I kinda forgot…." I looked at him with another one of my sheepish grins. He chuckled, and turned around.

All of a sudden, Tokime came up. And asked the same question. "How old are you?" I thought I could play a little. Though the first time was a mistake, I can probably play a good joke now. But of course I was ruined, courtesy of Mareku. "She's turning 13 this January. She told me." He answered for me. I offered him one of my small glares and turned to look at her with a small smile… I couldn't wait for recess. Which meant meeting more people and making more friends. Hopefully, they'll be just as nice as these few, maybe nicer.
