The man who smiles when things go wrong has thought of someone to blame it on. - Robert Bloch
"Grandpa, why are we doing this?"
"It's a brother's duty, Souta! It's about time you stepped up and did this on your own."
"But this is lame. I mean, who stuffs shoes full of toilet paper anyway?"
"Little brothers do, that's who! If you've got a better idea, let's hear it."
Souta sighed and grandpa snorted triumphantly. The old man set back to work, carefully filling Kagome's loafers so that she wouldn't be able to get her feet inside, but so she wouldn't notice the paper until after she tried putting them on. Souta couldn't believe he was actually participating in this.
"Here, now take a look and see how it's done," grandpa said proudly as he handed the stuffed shoe to Souta for inspection.
His work was neat, Souta had to give him that, but it was still a stupid idea that would only serve to make Kagome mad, and who really wanted to deal with her when she was angry?
He handed the shoe back to his grandfather just as Kagome sprang down the stairs and over to the door. She stop short and took in the sight their grandfather poking inside the shoe at the paper tucked inside, and then bellowed, "What are you doing to my shoes?"
Grandpa jumped in surprise, but recovered quickly and rounded on Souta, finger wagging, "Souta, what did I tell you about playing childish pranks on your sister?"
"But Granpda!"
"I don't want to hear it. You'll be cleaning out the old storehouse for this."
Souta stood there dumbly for a moment. He couldn't believe his grandfather would do that to him. Especially when Souta hadn't even wanted to participate at all in the first place. This was so unfair.
"Hop to it, boy!" grandpa barked, then turned to Kagome and said sweetly, "I don't know what's gotten into him today. Let's take care of these shoes for you."
Grandpa was so going to pay for this later.
