"I don't know a thing about kids Michiru. I know you want to have a family but we live with Setsuna for crying out loud. She might not even want a kid running around!" Haruka stated, earning a scoff from the woman sitting in the chair across the room.
"Don't bring me into this, it's you that is afraid of an eight year old girl."
Setsuna retorted, just as the phone rang.
"Haruka, seriously they matched us up already and if we back out now it will devastate the child!" Michiru stated as she moved to answer the phone.
"Do you even realize what I know about raising a kid involves? I am not capable of it." Haruka ranted to Setsuna who sighed.
"Haruka, I love you but seriously you are stupid sometimes. Just do the things your parents didn't do with you. Okay? Surely even you can do that."
Setsuna answered before adding
"Besides, you adore the neighborhood kids and they love you even if they do like pranking you."
Haruka sighed and nodded, pinching the bridge of her nose as she tried to ward off the headache that she felt.
"Haruka, We should be there by one thirty they said so they have everything ready." Michiru stated, walking into the room, causing the blonde to sigh and nod.
"Okay Michi….Just don't expect me to be any good at this."
"Haruka, you put up with every child on this block I am sure you can cope with living with one."
The drive to the orphanage was long, especially since traffic was backed up due to an accidentt though soon they got there.
"Are you sure it's okay? I mean it's one forty five."
Haruka stated, earning an eye roll.
"Haruka, at least meet her before you get nervous."
As soon as they walked into the building they were met instantly by a wave of voices, some even recognizing the pair.
"Jeez." Haruka muttered as they walked past, not meaning to be cold but being a bit overwhelmed by all of it.
"Haruka, seriously...Go meet them. They probably haven't met a race car driver before and besides that having you fidgeting around might cause everyone to get nervous and we don't need that." Michiru chuckled, pushing her toward them.
Haruka had just finished playing a game with the children when Michiru returned to the room, followed closely by a dark haired little girl.
"Haruka? I want you to meet Hotaru Tomoe, she's going to be staying with us."
Michiru stated, earning a small smile from Haruka who hunkered down to the child's level.
"Nice to meet ya."
She stated, earning a shy smile as the child partially hid behind Michiru.
"Oh so she instantly likes you it seems?" Haruka chuckled, getting up only to earn a laugh from Setsuna.
"I think she's not sure what to take of people. Michiru actually has a soft voice and doesn't tower completely overtop her." Setsuna retorted.
