Nu-uh... there's a lot more to it... Smile

Here's an update!

Rena fell asleep on the kitchen table, got dressed, then got ready to go shopping.

Rena had her back turned to the door of hers and Chanel's room. Maybe I shouldn't have been so mean... and maybe I should invite Chanel to come shopping with me... Rena thought. Well it's too late now. She's probably mad at me. She left to Nerissa's Own Clothing Store and bought a ton of new clothes.

When she came back, she saw Miki and a girl who looked a lot like him.

"Hey Miki! Long time no see! I see you've been growing out your hair, am I right?" Rena grinned cheerfully. Who needs Chanel when I can be friends with Miki again and this girl! Rena thought.

"Kiki, I can't do this! You're a girl! You can comfort her!" Miki told his sister, Kiki.

"Wh-what are you talking about?" Rena asked.

Kiki stepped in. "Hi, I'm Kiki, Miki's sister. You know Miki, the annoying dude?"

"Will you just tell me what's going on?" Rena snapped.

"Okay, well, we don't know how to tell you this, but..."

"Uh-huh...?" Rena said impatiently.

"Chanel's, uh... dead."

"What?" Rena said. She stared at Kiki for a moment. Then she ran into her room, only to find Chanel lying on the floor, lifeless.

Rena ran back to Kiki and buried her face in her hands. "It's all my fault..." her voice shook.

Kiki sat down. "No, it's not," she said. "It's nobody's fault, Rena."

"I'm listening..." Rena said slowly, and she sat down too.

"This is what happened," Kiki sighed. "Me and Miki wanted to check in right away. We knocked on the door to your guys' room, but there was no answer. Miki got all tipped off. He was seriously gonna knock the door down. But anyways, then I pushed him out of the way and opened the door. All I saw was Chanel lying on the floor. Miki tried to wake her up. He even yelled in her ear. Then I tired to wake her up too, but then i realized she wasn't breathing. I called 911, but they didn't believe me. They thought I was just a dumb kid trying to stir up trouble..."

"Well then they SUCK!" Rena said. "But it's not your fault they suck, of course..."

[Image: snapshot_9546f43d_555964ba.jpg]

"Yeah, it's totally not!" Kiki said. Then she realized she wasn't really making Rena feel better, so she changed the subject.

[Image: snapshot_9546f43d_755964fc.jpg]

"So where are you from?" Kiki smiled, making an effort to help Rena recover.

Rena paused. What does that have to do with anything? she thought. Then she realized Kiki was just trying to be nice, so she started talking more. "Australia. But I moved to Texas to start a motel with-"

Kiki quickly changed the subject to her and Miki. She stood up again. So did Rena.

"Me and Miki, we're from Tokyo. We come to America every now and then." she smiled. There was an awkward silence.

Rena broke it this time.

"Well, tomorrow's the first day of school," she sighed. "Wear your coolest clothes and don't be late!"

Next day, after school

"What in God's name is THIS?" Rena asked Kiki after school. "We were the laughing stocks of the school today!"

"It's super kawaii!" Kiki exclaimed. "Harajuku street fashion!"

Rena sighed. "That whole Harajuku high fashion thing... that won't work here. Just, don't wear it again, okay?"
