--------------------Mai-------------------------------
I run into my room, grinning about summer. I love summer break! I get to do whatever I want! Normally I'd be at my table doing math, but I just got in from being outside! I Drop Pachikun on my bed, and quickly change from the clothes I was wearing at the park, and pull out a colouring book. I flip it open randomly, and flop on my floor to colour.
A few hours, and lots of pages later, the phone rings. I hear Mama answer it, and I go back to my picture. A few minutes later she calls me. "Yes Mama, let me pick up real fast." I quickly shove my book onto the shelf, and straiten my dress, then I run to the living room. Mama smiles at me, "Keiji planned a vacation for all of you." she says, I look up at her, half excited to see everyone again, but half scared to be with Keiji for a long time. "are you going?" I ask, softly. Mama loses her smile and shakes her head, "You know how Keiji is. Family won't be welcome...." Her voice trails off. "May I go play again?" I ask, trying to be polite. Mama nods, so I turn and walk back to my room.
A little while later the doorbell rings, "Could you get that Mai?" Mama calls. I agree, then glance down at myself. I had been playing dress up, and was in a floofy purple dress, Mama's high heels, and an over sized hat. I shrug, and hurry to the door, tripping over the shoes.
I pull back the door and see Nasumi! And Kohaku! I hug them, and pull them inside, asking lots of things without stopping in between to breath "Did you bring the cupcakes? Do you want to play with me? Are you going on the vacation too? Do you think it'll be fun? Can I have a cupcake? What kind are they?" They look kind of overwhelmed by how hyper I am.

Yeah, Mai is hyper when she's excited, like most kids. I figured she wouldn't be as shy in her own house. ^-^
