Ellie's POV
I don't know why, but I'm scared. My heart is beating out of my chest. My sweaty hands grip myself. It was so easier being here when I tried to ask for help with Jaden's disappearance. What makes this time so different? I gulped.
Reaching a shaking hand to knock on the Detective Agency, I stopped at Mouri's drunk voice.
"Are you *hic* sure you want to *hic* do this? She sounds like a *hic* weird kid."
"Conan thought it would be a good idea and I agree with him. She's just had rough living-conditions, that's all. It's not nice to judge a person before you meet them."
"But *hic* I'm your dad! My word should *hic* come before that brat's!"
"Just stay out of this." Glass clinked together. "And stop drinking!! It's bad for you to take this much at once!!"
"Hey!! I wasn't *hic* finished with that!!"
"I don't care. You're done for today."
"Whatever. I'm *hic* going to the bar."
"What did I just say?!?!"
The door suddenly swung open, causing me to fall forward and onto Mouri. That's what I get for leaning on it so much...
"AAAAAAAAAHH!!!!! WHO ARE YOU?!?!" Mouri pushed me off him, and I fell into the hall.
"I'm so so so so sorry sir!! I didn't mean it, honest!!"
He grumbled to himself as he walked downstairs and across the street. I sighed. That could have been a lot worse...
Ran broke the silence. "Oh, don't mind my dad. He's always a grump. So, you ready to learn?" She asked with a kind smile. I smiled back timidly. Why is this so scary for me?! Ugh!! Pull yourself together and just do it!!!
"Umm... thanks..." I walked in and sat on the couch, same place as last time. Ran followed my lead.
"Before we begin, I want to make sure everything Conan told me is right - You're from America, and moved here a few months ago. All though you mastered speaking Japanese relatively quick, reading and writing is a still struggle. You want to go to public schooling, however are embarrassed of this 'handicap' and refuse to join until you know at least the basics. You plan to enroll next year, which will also be easier because you won't have to jump in the middle of spring plus it's almost summer anyways so why bother. In the meantime, I will be your tutor. Did I miss anything?" I have to admit, Conan is good at lying.
"Nope."
"Can I get you anything to drink?"
"Got milk?"
"Yep."
Dang, she didn't get my KID joke! Oh well... I took the milk and we began the session.

Hey Melons, just a heads up the next few chapters are just fillers so they will be kind-of short. I'm working on another epic slightly-confusing chapter, but it will take a while. Sorry. Bye baby melons!!
