Nii-san told me this before he left:
"I'm going to be away for a while and I can't bring everything with me. Here, this plate is one of the things Mom left me before she died, so it's really important to me. I want you to take good care of it and make sure it's in perfect condition when I get back, okay Ryuu?"
So I've been taking real good care of it like he told me to. I even hid it away in a special place where it's hard for anything and anyone to get to it and break it.
I went to that place to check up on it. I was surprised to find that, not only was it not there, Bean managed to get a hold of it. She was right there at the scene of the crime having her grubby little hands on it. She was going to break it for sure, I just know it. She's so clumsy with everything that I swore everything she touched died.
As I panicked, I rushed over and tried to grab the plate away from her. She just wouldn't let go of it. It turned into a game of tug-o-war.
"Ugh! What are you doing!?"
"What!? I'm just looking at it! It's really pretty!"
"Give it back! This is Nii-san's and he told me to take care of it while he was away! It's really important to him and your gonna break it! So give it back!"
"What!? No fair! You're always nice to Haru-nii and always mean to me!"
"That's not true! Ugh, just- Give it back!"
"Hey, what's going on here, you two?" When Manari said that, our hands automatically let go. What bad timing. The plate broke in two when it hit the floor.
"Ah! No! Now look what you've done!"
Bean started crying, "Uu... uu... I'm sorry. I'm so sorry..."
"Ugh... What am I gonna do now?"
Nii-san is coming back tomorrow. If he finds out, he'll be furious and never look at me the same way again... I'm afraid of that happening. What am I gonna do?
