Genkai: are you coming back late tonight ?
Arina : I have club activities. But... I think I can come back in time to make dinner.
Genkai: I see. Then I want to eat curry pork chop.
Arina : I got it. I'll buy the ingredients.
Genkai : arigatou !
________________________________Kamine : are you really ok ? You missed class for three days. You told me you were sick and didn't let me visit you.
Arina : I love really far. It's fine.
Kamine strokes her hair " poor thing. Poor thing. "
Arina: kamine. I can't walk home with you today. I have to go grocery shopping.
Kamine: why ? I could go with you .
Arina : it's a bit far. They're having a grocery sale and I want to go see.
Kamine ; you're like a housewife. So ready to marry Minamino-kun?
Arina : it's not like that !!! *Blush...* It's the old lady I stay with. The fridge is almost empty. I have to stock it up.
Kamine; so you live with an old lady. You've never told me that . Neh neh, when are you going to let me visit ? I've never been to your house.
Arina ; eh ?!!! But it's really really far away. It's out of town faraway.
Kamine ; eh?!!! And you still come to school everyday ?! Just for your Minamino-kun? Wah. You're really great.
Arina : heh...
Can't tell her I actually teleport here. I'm not that crazy either.
Kamine : alright! Just once ! I want to go. This weekend. I'm going. Ok ?!!
Arina sweatdrops " hai... "
________________________________Arina : well... That's what happened.
Genkai: I don't really care. I have this much of a space.
" oh ok. " And Arina places the plate of curry pork chop on the floor beside her " enjoy your dinner. "
Genkai ; Arina.
Arina : hai ?
Genkai: you're becoming more and more human. As a yokai, will you be ok ?
Arina : eh ? I... Didn't really think too much about it.
Genkai: yokais don't like your type right ? Becoming more human type. Especially those who were your friends, or those whom know you. Are there any that really despises human ?
Arina : Hina huh ? She's my best friend. She won't. She's known everything since the start. She still nags me about changing my heart.
Genkai: so you didn't get attacked ? You're not the battle type . The kind they like to target.
Arina : mmm... A few times. But I was fine. They weren't stronger than me.
Genkai sighed " just be careful. You dumb yokai. Who will make me food if you just died ? "
Arina ; hehe. Hai.
________________________________Next day...
Arina : so... Can you please help me ? Shizuru-san.
Shizuru : well... I guess I could. So she doesn't know you're a yokai ?
Arina shakes her head " she doesn't. "
Shizuru: alright then. I think it's nice you have a human friend.
________________________________Arina was doing grocery shopping when she met Keiko.
Keiko: you're... arina.
Arina : hey!
Keiko ; what are you doing here ? You're from another city right?
Arina : grocery shopping. Only here they sell really nice spices. Genkai likes to eat curry and flavorful food.
Keiko : I see. I forgot you stay with genkai-san.
Arina : anyway. Nice to meeting you. I won't disturb you.
Keiko ; no. You're not. Neh, Arina. Why don't we have a barbecue at genkai-san's? That will be fine right ? I've never really met this genkai-san too. I want to know her.
Arina: I guess you could... Barbecue... Shizuru-san is fetching my friend kamine to genkai-san's place. Want to hitch a ride ? I could ask everyone else as well to come.
Keiko : eh ? Shizuru-san is fetching your friend ?
Arina ; ah. She wanted to know where I stay. I really couldn't push it off anymore...
Keiko sweatdrops " well... If you're a normal human, you are supposed to have a house. "
Arina : heh... Sunday ?
Keiko : um. I think it's fine. I'll tell Yuseke and kuwabara.
Arina : um ! I'll tell the others. I'll prepare everything. Just have to come.
Keiko: that would be mean to you.
Arina : it's fine. Remember. Don't bring anything. Or we'll have too much things.
Keiko: alright then.
________________________________The day after next...
Kamine : waaah !!! The place is so big !!! You've never told me it's so big !!! You live here with only that old lady you talked about ?!
Genkai : I'm that old lady.
Kamine : haha. Hi. I'm kamine. Arina's friend.
Genkai: I know. She told me.
Shizuru: what ? You've set everything up already. And keiko-chan asked me to come earlier so we could help set up.
Arina : geeee.... *Stare* I said I would be fine.
Keiko : heh. I felt bad.
Shizuru: did you buy any beer ?
Arina : it's inside the house, chilling.
Shizuru goes inside " arigatou. "
Genkai suddenly raises her alert " hm ? "
Two yokais appeared and held onto kamine and Keiko by the neck, taking them by hostage.
Arina; kamine ! Keiko !
" Come with us. You bitch. " The female yokai holding onto Keiko said.
Kamine ; what's going on ?!! Do you know these people ? Arina !
Arina ; I don't.
" I do !!! " The female yokai that held onto yokai yelled. " You're a slut just like me !!! "
" Stop it. " A male yokai showed up. Arina's eyes widens in shock. She couldn't believe her eyes, of who she just saw " .... You're... You're supposed to be dead. I... Saw you... Die... "
" she will come with us. Don't hurt them." He said. " Right ? Arina. "
Arina : explain to me !!
" If you come with me. "
" Fine. " She walks over to his side.
Genkai : Arina !!! Are you sure ?!!
Arina ; it's ok. You don't have to do anything. Genkai. This guy won't hurt me.
Genkai: alright then. You will come back nah ? Arina.
" Time to go. " And he grabbed onto Arina and the other yokais who came disappeared as well in a flash.
