"I told you not to get too into it and you didn't listen. Serve you right. What did you do while you were grounded?" 

"Clean the whole place. And why didn't you call me?" 

"Your Mom told me you were grounded. She told me not to call you. Oh, and I bumped into your Dad another time and even he told me not to call you because you're grounded." 

"You could have sent me a message..." 

"And say what? I'll end up sending you stickers laughing at your misery. Do you really want that?" 

"Tch." He then look at Michiyo to see she was still picking from the small bag. What was she trying to do? "There's lots in there." 

"Found it! Pink candy!" She happily put it into her mouth. 

"Huh? What was that all about?" 

Ranfa explained to Kamitani about the pink craze Michiyo was recently into. Kamitani looked at Michiyo to see her searching for more of the pink candies in his snack bag.

"Is it that tasty?" He asked her. 

"Not really. Michiyo like orange ones better." 

"Then why are you eating the pink ones?" 

"Ehehehe~." 

"What does that even mean? Oi, Ranfa, isn't it annoying that she's making demands? This is one step into picky eating, you know? It starts from strange demands and then it upgrades to full on pickiness." 

Ranfa chuckled, "Are you basing that on Taka? Sorry, Hayato, but my little sister is different~." She picked up her sister and she put Michiyo on her lap, "Ehehe~." 

Kamitani just shrugged his shoulders, "Don't blame me when she starts upping her demands. And careful you won't spoil her." 

"Poor Hayato, he doesn't understand the feeling of happiness of spoiling their siblings~." 

"I don't because I feel annoyance having to deal with mine." 

"WAHHH! Nii-chan being mean again!" Taka heard what Kamitani said and he went crying into Ryuuichi's lap! 

"Kamitani..." Ryuuichi sighed, "Still, I understand where Ranfa-san is coming from." 

"Well, Michiyo is a good kid who hardly make demands anyway. Seeing her make a demand is somewhat refreshing." Usaida added. 

Ranfa patted her sister on the head. She doesn't mind spoiling Michiyo, but she wondered how long the whole pink thing will last because she's a little put off by pink curry. 'I can't believe Michiyo made it look like it's the next best thing in her life when she ate it.' 


...


When it's after school, Ranfa bought donuts for herself, Michiyo, Kamitani, and Taka. Kamitani wanted to treat Ranfa but his allowance was cut for the next few weeks. 

"Nii-chan, donuts is tasty~!" Taka happily said with his mouthful. 

"Ah. Sorry about that, Ranfa. I'll definitely treat you next time." 

"Geez, I'm not going to die if you don't treat me back, Hayato. I'm happy regardless who is paying. Unless you're telling me you're not happy when I am the one treating."

Kamitani went silent about that. "You know what? You're amazing." 

"I know I am~. That's why you chose me, no?" She picked out a plain donut knowing he liked them more than the ones with the sweet glazes on top. "Hai~."
