"Usagi-san, you've been crying ever since you dropped by!" 
Setsuna-san said as she wiped away my tears. I was so sad that I had 
ran all the way to Tomoe Mansion.
      "Yes, Usa-san, are you ever going to stop draining tears?" 
Hotaru-san said as she sat by the piano, trying to concentrate on a 
piece. I felt guilty wasting their time. Then, Souichi-kun walked into 
the living room, as cheerful as he can be. 
      "Yes, Usagi-san. You don't want to have such an ugly face a year 
from now," Souichi-kun joked. That was enough to make me stop crying 
and show a smile. Setsuna & Hotaru were laughing along.
      "Papa, I guess laughter IS the best medicine. Usa-san has stopped
crying," Hotaru cheerfully said. Hotaru has been cute and innocent 
since the time since she was possesed; yet she never lost her 
innocence.
      "So, do you want me to get some hot chocolate for anyone?" 
Setsu-san said. It's incredible how Setsu-san takes care of such a 
huge mansion single-handedly every day.
      "Hot chocolate for me, I said. "Same for us!" Hota-san and 
Souichi-kun said in unison. When Setsu-san went out, I asked 
Souichi-kun,  "How does Setsu-san take care of this house?"
      "Daimons," Souichi said cooly. I couldn't believe my ears. 
Daimons? Weren't they evil?
      "What papa says is that he modified them to be good. So when a 
daimon is good, it can be trusted to do work,especially housekeeping," 
Hota-san explained. "But sometimes mama does the work and gives the 
daimons a rest. They never ask for money. That's why papa likes them," 
Hota-san continued.
      By that time, Setsu-san had come in with 4 cups of hot 
chocolate. She set one in front of me and asked, "Now tell us why you 
were crying,"
      I said softly, "Mamoru and I are over for good," That made 
everyone stare at me.
      "Why, Usa-san? You know the 2 of you have to be together," 
Souichi said.
      "Usa-san, when did he come back home? Oh, that's right. You 
told me. But what about Chibiusa?" Hota-san asked.
      "Chibiusa can vanish into hell for all I care," I said dully, 
looking at my chocolate get cold.
      Usagi, if you two don't get back together, Crystal Tokyo will be
non-existent and so will Chibiusa. Besides, doing that will only cause
us to lead normal lives forever," Setsu-san said.
      "I thought that's what everyone wanted," I said. Things had 
changed. The last time I was a senshi, everybody wanted to lead 
normal lives.
	"Besides, I think I'm more suitable for Kou Seiya," I said. 
Everybody gulped their hot chocolate.
      "KOU SEIYA??" all of them said in unison.
      "Usa-kun, he's bad new," Souichi-kun said. Normal for me. He's 
always bad news.
      "Usa-san, he's stupid and doesn't desrve you!" Hota-san said. 
Yawn.
      "Besides, if you marry Seiya, chances are that Ami will be your
sister-in-law," Setsu-san said. Hold it. Ami my sister-in-law? I 
thought she was doing her internship? What happened to Ami-chan?
      "Don't you know? Taiki is in the same internship as Ami. 
There's no denying that they're in love," Souichi-kun said.
      "How do you know that?" I asked.
      "I'm their lecturer. Sitting next to each other all the time, 
sharing books, notes, etc. They'l be married after their internship, 
I think," he continued. I couldn't believe it. Ami? Taiki? TOGETHER?
      I didn't know what to say after that, but Hotaru left the room 
quiet with her piano playing. That just calmed me down. Why should I 
worry about Ami? She is old enough anyway to make her own decisions.
