HANA & MICHIRU IN KYOTO
Michiru whistled as she walked down a street in Kyoto. "Hard to believe I came from here of all places. Heh, the others are going to be so jealous," Michiru snickered.
"I wonder if I should go to To-ji temple," Michiru mused. She accidentally bumped into someone. "Oh sorry," she apologized, eying the one she'd bumped into.
"You bitch! This was a new coat," the delinquent snarled. He grabbed Michiru by the collar but stopped and keeled over in pain. Behind him was an annoyed Hana.
"I take my eyes off you for one second and you're already in trouble," Hana said, rolling her eyes.
"Sorry Hana-chan. I'm just so excited!" Michiru exclaimed. Thanks to ARMOR and Warren, they were able to locate Michiru's grandmother, who was operating a tea-house in one of Kyoto's wards.
"Yeah…well remember we have to find the woman first," Hana said as the two continued to walk.
They stopped near a teahouse. They paused to read the sign properly and then pushed open the door before stepping inside. On the other side of the room, a woman was busy gathering and stacking the dishes from one of many small, tidy tables.
"Sorry we're…" The woman stopped as her eyes fell on the girl. "It can't be…Michiru?" the woman asked, tears running down her eyes.
"Hai…Grandma," Michiru said, her eyes watering as well. She started walking closer as Junko Misame started to cry abruptly. Michiru pulled her grandmother into a hug so that her head rested on her shoulder.
Hana rubbed the back of the head, feeling sort of out of place but happy that Michiru met her grandmother again.
"W-where have you been?" Junko asked her missing grandchild.
"Let's talk later, Grandma," Michiru said.
"Alright, you can also bring your friend, or is she your girlfriend?" the woman asked making both blush as they entered the store with Junko hanging the 'We're Closed' sign in front.
