Chapter 1…

Grad Lobby:

"Welcome home, Mikan sama." said thirty maids in unison.

"Where are mommy and daddy?" I asked one of the maids.

"They're having tea with business guests in the business room on the second floor." One of them replied.

"Oh. Okay, thank you." I said sounding really disappointed.

"Where are you going Mikan?" asked Mai who is the best maid I've had so far.

"I'm going to my room." I replied

"Poor Mikan sama…"

"I know, she looks so lonely"

"I just hope that Mr. and Mrs. Yukihira could spend more time with her"

'Poor Mikan' thought Mai

Mikan's Room:

*Knocking*

"Who is it" I asked sounding tired.

"Mikan it's me"

"Mai!"

"You have a guest"

"You're in a good mood." Someone said a really familiar monotone voice.

"Hotaru!" I said. Instantly my mood became happy and cheerful.

"Hey! Mikan!" said two different but in unison voices.

"Anna! Nonoko!" I said again in surprise.

"Where's Permy?" I asked.

"She's with her brother" answered Anna.

We talked, played and do all the things that a 2nd grader would do.

Time sure fly when you're having fun, before we know it was 5:45pm already.

"We have to go, Mikan." Anna said, she sounded disappointed.

"Yeah Mikan. We'll come back tomorrow" Said Hotaru.

"Okay. See you tomorrow at school." I said.

And with that they left me all alone.

Dining Room:

"Mama! Mama! Guess what! I got perfect on my math test" I said while smiling.

"Mikan! Be quiet!" my mother snapped.

"Sorry" I mumbled.

"Didn't I tell you be quiet! If you don't know what that means, it means don't make a sound!" my mother yelled at me.

I kept quiet while my mother looked at me in shame.

Then my mother talked to my father about the business. That's all they cared about, the business.
