*SCANDAL pops out*

SCANDAL: WELCOME AUTHOR-SAN!!!

*All four girls hug the author*

Me: *barely breathing* Girls… I… understand… that… you… miss… me… but… *faints*

Mami: Oh my! Author-san fainted!

Rina: Oh oh… I think we hugged her way too much.

Haruna: Of course… *facepalms* Who could breathe when hugged tightly by four people?

Rina: How will we revive author-san now?

*Everyone thinks*

Tomomi: Oh I know! We-

Haruna: Whatever that is, I won’t be agreeing.

Rina: I agree with Haru.

Mami: Me too.

Tomomi: Mami, how could you?!

Haruna: I think we should just give author-san some space. And a bit of shaking.

*Author finally regains consciousness*

Tomomi: Whew! Author-san, you’re alive! *hugs*

Me: Tomo, please don’t try to hug me too tight…

Tomomi: So-sorry, author-san. We just missed you so much.

Rina: You don’t visit us anymore… *pouts*

Haruna: Yeah, it’s been a long time since your last visit. Have you gone sane somehow?

Me: Haru, that was harsh. *frowns*

Haruna: Aw, I was just joking author-san. You can’t take a joke.

Me: But jokes are all half-meant. *pouts*

Haruna: You want the four of us to hug you simultaneously again? *evil grin*

Me: *shivers* No… Please no…

Mami: So how about we go to the dining room and talk amongst ourselves?

Rina: Sounds like a good idea. I’ll also be preparing tea. Any requests, guys?

Me: Um, I’m more of a coffee person, so coffee with cream please.

Haruna: Any tea will do.

Tomomi: I want to try Earl Grey!

Mami: I’ll have Tomo’s too!

Tomomi: So, author-san, what’s with the sudden visit?

Mami: Wow, Tomo, I couldn’t believe you sounded so… so…

Tomomi: So what?

Mami: So… serious.

Tomomi: Hey! I can be serious at times you know. *pouts* Anyway, back to the topic…

Me: I just want to spend time with you guys. I need to relax.

Haruna: I never knew that we serve as a spa. Hmph.

Me: Aw, c’mon. Is it so bad to be with you guys?

*Rina comes back with the drinks*

Rina: Here’s your coffee, author-san.

Me: Thank you. Wow, it’s really creamy…

Rina: Of course, just as requested. Here’s your Earl Grey, Tomomi.

Tomomi: Oh, thanks!

Rina: Here’s your tea, Haruna.

Haruna: Thank you. What tea is this?

Rina: It’s a secret. *evil grin*

*Haruna with a shocked face*

Rina: I’m just messing with you. It’s just green tea.

Haruna: Whew, for a moment there I thought you laced this with poison.

Rina: *rolls eyes* Whatever. Okay Mami, here’s your Earl Grey.

*Rina sits with the rest*

Rina: So, what did I miss?

Mami: Nothing much. Haruna was just sulking because author-san disappeared for so long.

Tomomi: It’s funny how Haru sulks though. *giggles*

Haruna: I’m not sulking. *glares at everyone*

*Rina giggles, Mami rolls her eyes*

Rina: Yeah, right… Oh, I remember you went to author-san’s zeroth section one time. *makes a mischievous face*

*Haruna’s face went pale*

Haruna: I didn’t!

Rina: Yes, you did! Don’t deny it any further!

*Rina and Haruna engaged in a staring contest until one of them gave up*

Haruna: *sighs* Fine… I did went.

Mami and Tomomi: REALLY?!!

Me: Wha- *jaw drops*

*Author coughed a bit before speaking again*

Me: What… What were you doing in there?

Rina: I speculate that she was looking for you. Why else would she go there?

Me: No wonder…

Tomomi: No wonder what?

*Haruna quietly tries to leave the room*

Mami: Oi! Hold it right there, lady! *grabs Haruna*

*Haruna swears under her breath*

Me: No wonder she appeared in my dreams…

Tomomi: What did she do in your dreams, author-san?

Haruna: Nothing.

Rina: Oh really now. Nothing?

Haruna: Were you following me? *glares at Rina*

Rina: Okay I admit. I followed you. You were acting odd lately.

*Haruna sighed*

Rina: She went to the zeroth section and hugged the sleeping author-san.

*Steam puffed out of Haruna’s ears*

Mami and Tomomi: HOLY MOTHER OF PEARL!!! *makes “The Scream” face*

Rina: Haruna’s been way ahead of us girls. Tsk. Looks like Haruna figured how to make ourselves appear in author-san’s dreams.

Mami: This is so unfair! I want to be in author-san’s strange dreams too!

Tomomi: Me too!

Rina: Hey, count me in too!

Haruna: Hey, you all only have yourselves to blame for not thinking of going to the zeroth section.

Tomomi: SO... What made you think to go to the zeroth section anyway?

Haruna: Well, I… *gazes to the side*

Mami: Aw… She misses author-san so much she got desperate. *makes awfully cute gestures*

Rina and Tomomi: Aw… *goes along with Mami*

Haruna: Stop it.

Me: Aw… Really? *goes along with the rest*

Haruna: I said stop it! *hits author with karate chop on the head*

*Author gets knocked out*

Haruna: Author-san, I’m so sorry!

 Mami: Here we go again. *facepalms*

AN: Well, I don't know if I have to apologize for such a very late update. But I guess I have to, so I apologize for the lateness. It seems that a lot has happened and I couldn't think of a funny or good thing to write. Thankfully, my recent (well, it's been a month since) dream of Haruna gave me the inspiration and boost to finish this episode. Thank you Haruna! *cries tears of joy*

Hopefully you'll enjoy this episode. (=^.^=)
