| One late evening...
''a-AhhAh! . . .Ooh, it's just our(my) phone.'' Teto reacted, anxiously pausing her show. ''Who could be calling us at this time?''
*Answers call*
{Eri loudly spoke, ''Hello to you, Teto.''}
{''oOh, Eri. What a nice surprise. Um-*Swallows* Did you call for a evening chat o-or another matter?'' Teto asked, composing herself.}
{She replied, with a giggle, ''Eri has something she, -she wishes to ask. What was it? AaAheee! . .Do you remember when -Eri and our friends, visited your family store??!''}
{Teto said, ''Y-y-Yeah?''}
{''Well-ellll tomorrow, can we visit again, and see your room this time?'' Eri spacily asked.}
{''Our-Ah-ahgh!'' Teto grunted, smacking herself on the bed.}
| The next day afternoon...
''Hel-hellooo!'' Eri cluelessly exclaimed.
After a inhale, Teto warmly replied, ''Good afternoon to you Eri. *Looks around* You said, Gotoh and our friends would be arriving soon, didn't you?''
Eri nodded, ''Mm-hrm!''
| After a few minutes, our friends Gotoh and Yori made it. Sadly, Like last time.. Hayato wasn't coming with us.
Meanwhile, Teto nervously thought, 'Whew~ Don't worry. Stop worrying yourself. We've already hidden away everything that would be worrisome... '
*Types on door keypad*
Timidly, Teto said, ''We welcome you inside the Aika family residence.''
*Ohh's and ahh's.*
In awe, Gotoh expressed, ''Son of a baby dog! How do I always forget -just how bombastically rich your family is!''
Overwhelmed, Yori said, ''Despite your crude wording, you are right... ''
Vacantly, Eri thought, 'Eri forgot. What was she.. trying to do?'
Teto humbly refuted, ''Now, now. Don't embarrass us, please. As of this point in time, we're just a 49 million yen family. Please do not concern yourself with that.''

''wHew... Deep breaths... '' Teto whispered. ''Dear friends. Inside these doors, this is our room.''
Taken aback, Gotoh clamored, ''Wwow! Now that's one rich room! IT'S filled with red-hot treasures!''
. . .
Distracted, Eri asked, ''What is -all of this? Oooooo~ Can Eri take them, -these out for a closer look, please?''
Teto merrily nodded yes.
Riveted, Eri asked, ''DVDs? Anime DVD's? What is 'Baskets of Fruit'?
Excitedly, Gotoh said, ''Hot snacks! -Look`at your slew of manga over here! Heh. What's your type of read? Uhuh! 'Card..capturing Saku-ya'?''
Teto nervously laughed.
Gotoh shouted, ''You g-got-- a mini fridge??!''
Contently, Yori said, ''How admirable. It would appear that you've been raising flowers. Hmm.. What kind, I wonder?''
The label reads, 'Wisteria'. 'Primrose'.
Author's note
Spiritedly, Eri said, ''Erhh? Are these_ live-actions DVD's of tv series'?''
Intently and abashedly, Teto expressed, ''Listen, our friends. *Sighs out* We have something to admit.''
*Hmm??!*
She said, distressed, ''Since... we were quite young, we've been into.. romantic dramas... and Shoujo comedies. -Ever since we discovered it by chance, on that fateful day..... ''
Surprised, Yori stated, ''Is that why I've glimpsed you, reading manga like that at school?''
Confused, Eri stated, ''Eri thought everyone at school, knew that already... ''
Teto panics for a moment.
''Uhr, everyone of you. We have a question.'' Teto merrily stated.
| Moments later~
Startled, Gotoh asked, ''Smokey fires! Are those---- Man, what are they called?! Animal.. Beas~Pet... Pah! -Are those a buttload case of pet-raising games??!''
Blushed and smirking, Teto replied, ''Mhrhm. Yeah, they are.''
| A little later~
*Sounds of various fun!*
Her eyes gazing away in relief, Teto thought, 'Hahhhw~ How fortunate that they haven't tumbled upon them. Our heart couldn't handle it.. if they saw inside our private drawer..... ''
| The end~ for now.....
