It was yet another peaceful day at Hinata Sou. The sun was shining without a cloud in the sky and there was a light breeze blowing. At the top of the steps leading towards the front entrance, Naru Narusegawa was taking a well deserved break from her daily chores. Now that Keitaro was studying abroad in America, she had to fill in as the landlord and do most of the housework.
“Phew, now I know what Keitaro feels like,” she said, wiping her brow. Saying his name brought a sudden feeling of depression and loneliness. Naru couldn’t deny the fact that she missed him a lot, but she knew that it wouldn’t be a good idea to keep thinking about him. After all, she had a dorm to run, her studies to attend to, and a part-time job teaching.
“Thinking about him again?”
Naru jumped in surprise and turned around to see her friend Mitsune “Kitsune” Konno. She stood there with her usual fox-like grin that she always wore when plotting something, with an open can of beer in her left hand. Surprisingly, she seemed to be sober (alert the media).
“Aack! Kitsune, don’t scare me like that!” Naru said in annoyance. “And no! I’m not thinking about that perverted loser again!”
Kitsune’s grin, if possible, grew wider. “Oh come on Naru. You know that you love the guy, so why do you keep denying your feelings? You were never like this when you had that crush on Seta.”
That little tidbit of truth shot through Naru like an icy dagger. Naru bit her lip, trying to come up with a good excuse. Truth be told, Naru could never understand why she denied her feelings. Although she never felt like she was ready to start a more intimate relationship with Keitaro, she really, really wanted to. But she couldn’t bring herself to do so, especially after all those years of turning down men, proclaiming that as an exam student, she didn’t have time for relationships, except that now she was already enrolled at Tokyo U, so that excuse was void.
“I don’t know,” was all she could say to Kitsune. Tears started to form in her eyes as her emotions took over. She tried to wipe them away, but Kitsune had already seen them.
“Come here,” she said softly. Naru went over and started to sob softly into her friend’s shoulder. “It’s okay Naru, just let it out,” Kitsune said, as she patted Naru’s back reassuringly.
Naru continued to cry for a good seven minutes. After a while, she managed to regained her composure. She lifted her head to look at Kitsune, her eyes slightly bloodshot. “I’m just so lonely without him. What if he finds another girl in America? I don’t think I could live without him.”
“Don’t worry Naru. I’m sure that he won’t forget you. As clumsy and forgetful as he is, I know that he is probably thinking about you right now. He will only be gone for another five months, right?”
“I guess so.”

It was six in the afternoon. The sun was just starting to touch horizon as evening took over. Naru, Kitsune, Motoko, Shinobu, Sarah, Su, Kanako, Mutsumi, and Haruka were all in the living room watching TV. Everybody was on edge, expecting Keitaro to walk through the door at any moment. Naru was deep in thought, Kitsune was wondering how she should “welcome” Keitaro back home (wink, wink), Su was thinking bananas and what new invention she should test on Keitaro (lately she was thinking that the Mecha Tama X prototype would be a good choice), Shinobu was thinking about what to cook for Keitaro when he arrived, Motoko didn’t really give a damn about Keitaro at the moment (at this point she still has complete control over her emotions), blah blah blah, you get the idea.
So, while they were watching TV, a news brief came up, interrupting the overly dramatic soap opera that was on.
“Hey, those two were just about to get it on!” Kitsune whined.
“Shut up!” Kanako yelled. “I want to hear this!”
“After two weeks of extensive investigating, it has been concluded by the PRC’s (People’s Republic of China) ILDGPD (International Liaison Department of the General Political Department) that Yoshi Tanaka, a business representative of the Sony Corporation, is actually an undercover agent of Japan’s Defense Intelligence Headquarters. He is reported to be responsible for the leak in the Weapons and Tactics Department of the PLA (People‘s Liberation Army),” the reporter said. “The department is said to have had about forty percent of their blueprints and data files compromised, and most of their experimental weapons programs have been sabotaged. Chinese President Hu Jintao and State Council Premier Wen Bangguo (AN: these are the actual people currently holding the above mentioned government positions as of 2003) both made a statement this morning, saying that ‘the Japanese have disgraced, defiled, and desecrated the entire nation of China through the illegal use of espionage agents despite the numerous treaties that have been set in place for years.’ Hu went so far as to say that if the Japanese refuse to compensate for this incident in the upcoming negotiations, war can and will break out. We will be frequently updating on the situation. Up next, ways to save big on car insurance, and-”
The TV snapped off as Haruka hit the power button. She had a look of exhaustion on her face, or it could have been that her last smoke was about twenty minutes ago (is that a record for her? I’m not quite sure).
“I think that it’s time to call it a day,” she said. Everybody got up without another word and headed to their rooms. Except for Naru, who went to the window and looked up at the sky.
“Keitaro, please come home.”
