"Look at this!" cried Kibo at breakfast one day.

"Look at what? Did you find a fairy or an elf?" Hikari asked

"No, much worse!" Kibo showed us a magazine with two pictures of Hana on it. One of her wearing Romance Kiss and the other LoLi Gothic. The picture of her in LoLi Gothic had a big X on it. "Listen to this: 'The local Romantic Phantom does not disserve her name for "Phantom" being only a sexy idol and nothing more. Honestly, LoLi Gothic doesn't suit her at all!"

"WHAT!?!" I cried. I knew Hana loved that brand, and someone was saying she was unworthy for it. "How dare they!"

"Yeah! No one says anything bad to Hikari's friends!" Hikari shouted

"Do you think this has anything to do with why Hana called in sick today?" Kibo asked

"She's sick?"

"I over heard some news about it,"

"Should we check on her?" I asked "Maybe she could use a friend,"

"We should!" Hikari agreed

"I don't know guys, you've -"

"To Hana's room!"

"Wait! Guys!"

In a flash, the three of us were in front of Hana's dorm room. I knocked "Hana? It's us, you're friends," I said. We waited a minute, then the door opened a jar.

"Hello?"

"Hana! May we come in?" Kibo asked

Hana looked at us, then opened the door.

The room was mostly blue with framed posters and pictures and autographs. "Wow. You have a cool room!" said Hikari

"Thanks, I guess," Hana replied before falling onto the bed.

I look at her desk, a coord is laid out. "The Sapphire Chandelier Coord," I say "Were you going to perform in it?"

"I was," she replies "For the upcoming Festival of Frights. But who would want me there now? After all I'm not scary,"

"But you are scary!" said Hikari "Sometimes you give me nightmares because you're so ... terrifying?"

"Thanks for trying to help," said Hana "But it's hopeless. I'll be a joke,"

"You're not a joke!" I argue "We want you there! We want to see you at your scariest!"

"But who else?" Hana asks

"Me?" Kibo shrugged

"Oh! And Yujin!" I added

"Thanks, but there's no point for performing for only four people,"

I frown. I start to continue, but I already know it's hopeless. She won't give in.


"Polu ... Polu ... You're spilling your water on my foot,"

"Huh?" I finally listen to Sena's words and stop tilting my bottle. "OH MY GOSH! I'm so sorry!"

"It's fine. It's just water,"  He hands me a roll of paper towels.

"Thanks," I start cleaning up my mess, he helps. "You don't need to help,"

"Well I won't let you do it alone," I smile.

"Thanks, again,"

When everything is try I throw away the paper towels. "So why are you so distracted today?" he asked
