Mika walked towards the main gate and went out through the small door on the right.Yumi and Shouji watched as Mika disappeared from their view.

Yumi : I am so curious on how she managed to beat Shinn today.

Shouji : Sounded the same.

Yumi: The same?

Shouji : Your tone when you said that.Just like 2 years ago

Haruna : So!HOW WAS IT!!!?

Mika : Hold it,I have not removed my shoes yet.

Minami : Welcome home Mika-chan.Dinner is ready!

Haruna : We must get her to tell everything about her first day of work Okasan!

Minami : Alright,alright but get yourself to the dining table first,Haruna,Mika.Where is your borther?

Haruna : He is still at work I guess.He told us to go ahead and eat first.

Minami : Really?He will miss the crunchy prawn tempura then (laughed)

Mika : Tempura?

Minami : You love them right?(smiles)

Mika : Oh now I am hungry.

Haruna : Come come (pushed Mika to the dining table)

While they were eating,Mika was telling both of them about her first day at work.

Haruna : Mizuhara Shinn? You mean the famous Kabuki actor!?

Minami : Are you serious Mika-chan?

Mika : Why are you both looking at me like that?Is he really that famous?

Haruna : Well,I remember he is so good looking though.Despite the thick make up and aristocaratic traditional costumes on him.

Minami :Is he nice?

Mika : (laughed so hard) NO.

Haruna : Seriously?

Mika : Now,I have no doubts about the previous 20 assistants before me.

Haruna : He had 20?

Minami : I go and get more soup alright(went to the kitchen)

Mika : He is bloody annoying Haruna.Bloody and bloody.

Haruna : (sigh) It must be really really tiring?

Mika : Not really.Taking good care of him is like taking cae of a 5 years old school kid.Annoying but he has limits.

Haruna : (nods)
