Chapter 29
“WOOAHH PARTTYYY!” Chrystal shouted as she opened the door, scurried in, and started to run around in circles excited. Cindy shut the door behind her and let out a yawn but then smiled. Party with ARASHI! She found Chrystal in the living room acting very…very happy. Cindy stared…then walked into the kitchen and Chrystal followed behind her closely. It was just a little awkward.
“Psst Cindy guess what?” she whispered.
“What?” Cindy whispered back as she grabbed a water bottle.
“Arashi is going to be at our house soon”
“Yeah I know”
“YESS ARASHI! Aww if only Tegoshi could also be here~ then that would be even BETTER!”
“Its okay its okay, we’ll have Mimi!”
Chrystal laughed evily, “Let’s pick on her…a lot. Since I can’t pick on Tegoshi…I feel deprived not picking on anyone”
Cindy looked at Chrystal with a small smile on her face and let out a soft laugh, “Okay…”
“YEESSS! Mwhahahah Mimi!” Chrystal said still with a big smile. She happily got a water bottle and gulped it all down. Cindy just…stared and tried to absorb in the energetic Chrystal.Then Cindy looked at the clock and jumped up and down.
“OH OH MIMI IS GOING O BE HOME SOON ISN’T SHE?!?” she said.
Chrystal’s eyes got wide, “WE’RE NOT READY!...Oh well”
Cindy laughed, “What exactly do we have to prepare?”
“How about…you prepare the cocounut cake thing. I’ll tell Arashi to buy ingredients for some good food…” she said while getting out her cellphone.
“Oh I need ingredients too, like coconut milk and shreds and…yeah” Cindy said as she sat down.
“Okay! I’ll tell them to buy it too!”
“…Are you sure they won’t buy the wrong things?”
“It’s okay! Jun is there…and Nino! They’re smart!”
“Okay…” and Chrystal called Nino.
“I’m gonna call Wanda and ask her when she’s coming home” Cindy said.
“Okay!” Chrystal said happily. She wanted to see Wanda again. Only an hour and half isn’t enough! “Hi Nino!...Can you…” Chrystal said to Nino. Meanwhile Cindy called Wanda. It took a couple of tries before it went through.
“Wanda! Hi” Cindy said.
“Hii. I’m almost home!” Wanda said.
“Wooahh. How did you know I was going to ask that”
Wanda laughed, “Because I’m smart”
“Yeah you’re just so smart Wanda”
“And I’m HOMMEEE!” Wanda said as the door opened. Cindy looked at the door and saw Wanda come in and she rasied her arms in the air. Chrystal’s eyes got wide again as she peeked over and saw Wanda and spazzed.
“WANDDAA YOU’RE HOMEE! BACK TO MEEE!” she said as she hung up on Nino. She looked at the phone when she noticed what she did but just shrugged. She already told him what to get so it’s all good! Wanda laughed as she enerted the kitchen.
“Man I’m so thirsty” she said as she opened the fridge. She got out a bottle of Arizona ice tea and popped the cap open. She smiled as she drank it and looked very relaxed. Chrystal sat down and patted the seat next to her.
“Come Wanda! Sit with me~!”
“Okay!” Wanda of course agreed. She listens unlike some people! She sat down like an obedient dog and continued to drink her ice tea. She started to bite the bottle and then laugh to herself which made Chrystal laugh and then Cindy. It was like a chain reaction! They spent a good 5 minutes just dying of laughter for no good reason. Maybe Wanda saw another face…this time in her Arizona ice tea or something. Who knows!
“Soooo…when does Mimi get home” Wanda asked as she put her drink down.
“Idk~” Chrystal said as she shrugged.
“Hopefully not soon” Cindy mumbled.
“What?!” Wanda asked confused.
Chrystal laughed, “Oh right! Arashi is coming over to celebrate Mimi coming home!! Yeesss”
“They’re buying the ingredients for food right now because apparently…we’re out of food!” Cindy said.
“Aren’t we always out of food?” Chrystal asked.
“No! When you were gone we had a decent amount of food…then it just all disappeared…” Cindy said slowly.
Wanda laughed, “I haven’t been home…so couldn’t have been me!”
“…Maybe I just ate it all” Cindy said with a smile.
Chrystal laughed then slapped her hand on the table to get Wanda’s attention. Well it definitely did because she jumped and Chrystal laughed by the big noise she mistakenly made. “Woah that was loud. SO WANDA!”
“Yes?” Wanda asked with a smile.
“When are you leaving huh? When are you leaving us and living with a GUY? You know he won’t be as good as us. You know you want to stay…” Chrystal said as she scooted closer to Wanda.
Wanda laughed and looked away, “Uhhhh….tomorrow? No 2 days…no tomorrow? I forgot…”
Chrystal sighed, “Mann I wanna live with a hot Japanese boy as well…”
“Well that’s possible! If Tegoshi asks you~” Cindy said.
Chrystal nodded and sucked in her breath, “Yeeahhh but he’s busy…sooo”
“So I have a little problem…” Wanda said slowly.
“What?! What is it Wanda? Are people picking on you? Do we have to beat him up?!” Chrystal asked right away.
Cindy laughed, “We’ll all gang up and kick his butt and make sure he never gets married and dies as a loner…”
Wanda laughed now as she shook her head, “No no no! I haven’t…told Don yet that I’m moving in with Nino…”
“So?” Cindy asked.
Chrystal gasped, “Oooh Wandaaa. Don is gonna kill yoouuu”
“I know~!! That’s why…I don’t know. How am I gonna tell him?!”
“Don’t tell him!” Chrystal said.
Wanda laughed, “I can’t keep it a secret forever! What if he comes down to Japan or something to visit?!”
“Then…just move back here when he does!” Cindy says, “Not like we’re going to kick you out and wash away your existence here…”
“Yeah exactly!” Chrystal said with a nod, “You have 2 homes! Well I guess 3 counting America”
Wanda shrugged as she peeld the wrapper on her Arizona ice tea, “I don’t knooww…I’ll feel really guilty..”
Chrystal laughed, “Wanda! You’re 18 and making your own money! You don’t have to listen to what Don says anymore!”
“Exactly! Little Wanda now has enough money to support herself and them if you really want to…” Cindy said.
Wanda shrugged, “Hmm still I don’t know” and she let out a soft laugh.
Chrystal scooted even closer to her and nudged her. She stuck her face really close and Wanda looked at her weirdly, “What?” she asked.
Chrystal made a grin, “Just listen to us Wanda! It’ll all work out!”
Wanda laughed, “Okay!”
“Yessss! Good Wanda!” she said as she patted her head. And like that, Wanda decided she wasn’t going to tell Don. Or at least not yet. In a local grocery store, five hot Japanese boys were roaming down the aisles casually browsing at things to buy. Ohno was lazily pushing the carriage, his whole body leaning on it as if it took that much force to push the empty carriage. Nino was walking ahead with Jun, each looking at opposites aisles, skillfully eyeing things they would need. Following behind Ohno was Aiba and Sho…who were picking random things up and pretending they were advertising them. Sho picked up a seaweed package.
“And here are the finest seaweed of Japan~ they are GOLD brand!” Sho said as he smiled.
Aiba laughed as he picked up some packaged nuts, “And here are some…nuts?” he said confused as he looked at it again. They both started to laugh hysterically.
“Ah~ come on guys! We have to hurry and buy then prepare the food!” Nino ordered.
Jun picked up a curry package, “Got it” he said as he tossed two in the carriage.
Nino pointed at Sho and Aiba, “How about you two pick the vegetables?”
Sho and Aiba smiled at each other and nodded, “Yes sir!”
Nino then narrowed his eyes as he patted Jun’s shoulder, “Maybe…you should follow them”
Jun laughed and had a smirk on his face as he followed behind Sho and Aiba who were really causing too much ruckus. Jun appeared inbetween then and Aiba and Sho squealed, “OII LOOKS WHOSE HEREE~” they both said. Jun rolled his eyes as he walked ahead towards the potatos and other vegetables that go into curry. Nino walked to the meat section with Ohno just following behind him. It was sort of like…a lazy toddler following behind the mother…or a dog following behind a master. Nino made a small pout as he and Ohno stood infront of the many choices of meat.
“Eh…which one is the best” Ohno asked as he picked up a random package.
Nino laughed, “Riida! That’s mostly bones!” and he made Ohno put it back down. He picked up a few, examined them, and eyed them to see which was a better value. He choose both and put them into the carriage that Ohno obediently started to push again. They roamed around looking for rest of the ingredients before reaching the vegetable section. It wasn’t hard to find Aiba, Sho, and Jun.
“Is this enough potatoes?!” Sho asked with a laugh as Aiba kept putting in more and more, “Oi oi Masaki-baby! The bag won’t fit anymore!”
Jun just stood there laughing. He turned away and went to the carrots where he picked a couple and put them in another bag. He spotted Nino and Ohno and he went over to them to put the carrots in.
Nino pointed at Aiba and Sho, “What are those two idiots doing?”
Ohno laughed, “They look like they are having fun~”
Nino smirked, “They’re going to get us kicked us sooner or later…”
Jun smirked too, “Should we just leave without them?”
“Eh should we?” Ohno asked.
“We should!” Nino said with the evilest tone of voice.
“But we need potatoes!” Jun suddenly said to the Nino who was already turned around.
“Ahh ruined the plan~” Nino said as he headed over. Sho and Aiba looked at him and gave him a goofy smiled. Nino gently nudged them away and poured all the potatoes back into the pile. He let out a laugh, “Just how many do you think we needed?!”
“Eh…it sort of turned into how many can fit into this bag” Sho said.
“A quick A no Arashi!” Aiba said with a beaming smile.
Nino took quickly disapproving glances at Sho and Aiba before he finished putting a couple of poatoes into the bag and he went off. Aiba and Sho shrugged as they followed behind. Jun decided he would pay for everything but then rest of Arashi felt bad so they split the cost with Jun paying just a little more. They wanted to get out of there rather quickly before they caught anymore attention. Aiba and Sho didn’t help the situation…or Jun’s clothing. But he can’t help that! He’s just that cool looking everywhere anytime! Ohno suddenly licked his lips as the lady scanned the items and recited the prices in amazing speed. He was staring up at the ceiling.
“I want to eat fish…” he said softly.
Nino laughed, “You can eat fish when you catch some~”
Ohno looked at Nino and nodded, “Ah you’re right! Tomorrow I will eat fresh fish!”
The lady finished doing the whole checkout process and bagging and Arashi accomplished their assigned mission! They, meaning Jun, even got dessert! Such a smart boy~. They loaded the bags into Jun’s car and they all got into whatever car they came in. It didn’t take long before they arrived at the girls’ house, fully lit and looked the same since they first saw it. Aiba and Sho were forced to carry all the bags while Jun and Nino pushed Ohno to ring the doorbell. For some reason Ohno acted like he didn’t want to which encouraged Nino and Jun to tease him. He timidly rang the doorbell and pretended to jump back like a bomb was going to explode. He was acting very weird tonight. The door swung open and Rolanda was there with a smile.
“Hi!” she said happily as she moved away and they all filed in. Nino was all extra smiley~! And the members knew why but didn’t pick on him. Or until later when Aiba and Sho weren’t carrying bags.
“YAY YOU GUYS ARE HERE!” Chrystal said loudly as she jumped up from the couch.
Cindy waved, “Hii. That’s a lot of food”
“Don’t worry Cindy! We’ll finish it all!” Chrystal said as she licked her lips and guided Sho and Aiba to the kitchen. Jun, Nino, and Rolanda followed after them probably to set up everything. Ohno clapped his hands together and roamed around the big living room space. Cindy was sitting on the couch staring at him with a small smile on his face.
“Hi Ohno” she said.
Ohno halted and looked at her and smiled, “Ah, hello” he replied.
She laughed now, “Why are you pacing back and forth?”
Ohno pointed around and smiled, “Just…looking around”
“Okay…you know you can sit down” Cindy said as she looked at the empty chairs around.
Ohno nodded as he took a seat and looked extremely awkward. Cindy couldn’t help but laugh. She tossed him the remote and he blinked as he stared at it.
“You can watch TV!” she encouraged him. He turned the TV on and it was like he zoomed into his own world. In the kitchen it was hectic, lots of things were happening while trying to prepare BEFORE Mimi comes home! Her plane is suppose to arrive at 9pm…which will then take about an hour to get back home…so she’s expected to be home around 10! And right now it was 9:30. Maybe there would be a sudden traffic to buy up time.
“Cindy~!” Chrystal yelled from the kitchen.
“Yeah?” Cindy yelled back.
“Are you going to bake the cake? I’ll set the oven for yoouu~!”
“…I’m too lazy right now…” Cindy said with a laugh.
Nino’s eyes got wide, “I forgot to buy the ingredients!”
“Oh well, CINDY NEVERMIND! NINO FORGOT!” Chrystal yelled again as she cut the carrots into coarse chunks.
“…OKAY!” Cindy said and continued to watch TV with Ohno again.
Jun was also at the table cutting the potatos. Rolanda and Nino were peeling them. Aiba and Sho were in charge of the stew. Aiba has done it before~ he knows what he’s doing! Suddenly Chrystal looked up and saw Cindy standing at the entrance of the kitchen a little way back with the phone in her ear. She had a smirk on her face.
“HI MIMI!” she said loudly. Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared.
“Hi Cindy! I’m on my way home~!” Mimi replied happily.
“Where exactly are you?” Cindy asked.
“Eh…on the highway…some more” Mimi said with a laugh, “OH I REMEMEBR THIS BUILDING! I’m almost home actually!”
“Oh so like…15 minutes?” Cindy asked.
“Yeah about that” Mimi said. Cindy looked at Chrystal who was staring at Nino and Nino was shaking his head.
“But you can’t come home yet Mimi~” Cindy said.
“…What?” Mimi asked confused, “ARE YOU REJECTING ME COMING HOME?!”
Cindy laughed now, “I’m not THAT evil! It’s more like we ran out of pads” They were all looking at each other now with extremely confused faces. Jun shook his head and started to cut the potatos. Chrystal also shrugged before she continued and the kitchen was active again!
“….Oh….” Mimi said with a laugh.
“Yeah so you have to go out and buy some” Cindy said as she stared at the clock.
“But there’s a local store near the house isn’t there?!” Mimi asked.
“Yeeaahh, but they don’t have the kind we use~ they only have tampons. We need PADS!” Cindy said loudly but in English. They didn’t understand!
Mimi laughed, “Why are you saying this in English?”
“Because I don’t know how to say it in Japanese…” Cindy said back with a laugh.
“Oh…me either. Okay well I’ll tell the taxi driver to stop now and I’ll buy some pads JUST FOR YOU Cindyrella! OKAY?!” Mimi said.
“YAY GRACIAS! Now I won’t leak!” Cindy lied.
“YAYY!” Mimi also cheered. They hung up and Cindy looked at Chrystal and smiled.
“Well?” Chrystal asked.
“She’ll be here in like 30 minutes or so” Cindy said.
Chrystal laughed, “Okay”
“We can finish this in 30minutes!” Aiba said as he paced around the kitchen. They tossed the vegetables and stuff into the curry mixture and added the blocks and spicing. It really did only take about another 20 minutes before the whole kitchen started to smell like delicious curry. Sho was also a smart boy and prepared the rice already so it was just waiting to be eaten! Cindy went into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator and grabbed a beer. Everyone was eyeing her curiously.
“Where are you going with that?” Jun asked.
“Why do we even have that in our house?” Chrystal asked as well. It’s true though…not like anyone can drink.
Cindy shrugged, “Because me and Wanda are bartenders? And it’s for Ohno! He seems so bored…”
Nino laughed outloud now, “He’s always like that!” and Chrystal just giggled. Nino pretended to stretch as he walked over and wrapped his arm around Rolanda. She looked up at him and smiled. Cindy was already gone and handing the beer to Ohno. He looked up a little confused but accepted it with a little bow to the head and smile. He started to drink it, smile, drink it, and watch TV. Cindy held in her laugh at how much an old man he looked like right now. She sat
