"They are simply adorable!" Rin squealed when Sesshou brought her to the building's basement to meet his greyhounds Aguh and Unan. The two greyhounds had immediately taken a liking to the girl and were presently licking her face and hands, while wagging their tails excitedly. Rin giggled with delight and patted their heads and backs. In the corner refilling the dogs' water and food bowls was Sesshou. After setting down the kibble bag and water jug he whistled to the dogs' who promptly pranced over and began to scarf down the food.

Rin hopped over the old couch and patted on the seat next to her for Sesshou to sit. He did, put his arm around her, and she rested her head on his chest. They watched the dogs gobble down the food and enjoyed the silence for a few minutes.

"Sesshou, don't you have college class today?" Rin asked. "You shouldn't have to miss them on my account."

"It's okay, you're worth missing a few days," Sesshou said. "Besides Wufei can fill me in on what I've miss."

"Wufei? Who's he?" Rin pondered aloud.

"A friend of mine from China. He was the one who helped us when we were stranded on that bus and you were sick."

"Oh, does he have shiny, black hair?" Rin questioned. At her description of Wufei's hair Sesshou chuckled and nodded.

"Yeah, his head is rather shiny," Sesshou smirked.

"I remember him then. I got a quick look at him when I was passing out," she said. "I'll have to remember to thank him if I ever meet him."

Sesshou gave a little nod then went back to watching the dogs eat their meal. He stroked her hair aimlessly with the hand around her shoulder.

"Oh, Sesshou, that reminds me!" Rin exclaimed. "I know I'm legally allowed to go out on my own, but no doubt Janice and George will be looking for me. And I'm pretty sure you'll be the first person they suspect."

"This is true," Sesshou responded looking down with an expression of deep thought on his face. A small smile soon appeared and his eyes brightened.

"Ah, ha. This is the perfect chance to kill two birds with one stone. I have a plan that will solve our foster problem and also it'll give you a chance to be acquainted with Wufei."

Rin cocked her head inquisitively and uttered a small 'huh'.
