Episode 8













There was something wrong with Hikaruko these days, she did not answer the questions properly during an interview with the reporter of a magazine, everyone noted that.  Ann-chan said that was because Hikaruko fallen in love with Sosuke.  The boss arranged a full body check for Hikaruko, the report said that she was physically well.  However, Hikaruko found that her heart always beats fast.

One day Sosuke found that someone wrote some words on the wall which had a giant Hikaruko on, he took out his handkerchief and tried to clean up the words, at the same time Tsuhomi (should be the name of the girl in Sosuke's office) came.  They went to the office together.  They talked about having a hot pot at Sosuke's home.  Sosuke's colleague, "the doctor", yelled suddenly, "don't eat any hot pot prepared by girls."  He slept in the office.  He got a quarrel with his wife last night and was expelled.  So he went to the office.  He said that when he was young, his wife, when still his girlfriend, made him a hot pot, then..... and they got married because she was pregnant.  So he warned Sosuke.  The boss, also a divorced man, agreed with what the doctor said.  They said that their wives were quite different before and after married.  But both Sosuke and the other colleague did not quite agree with them.

After work, Sosuke and Tsuhomi went to his home, Tsuhomi prepared a special hot pot for Sosuke.  The others were in the office drinking, the doctor was saying about his wife, while she appeared.  The doctor apologized to his wife, but his wife said that she would like to divorce with him, and gave him the form signed.

Ann-chan was waiting Sosuke at his home.  She would like to tell him about Hikaruko.  Tsuhomi was unhappy to see Ann-chan.  She then had a quarrel with Ann-chan and she told that Ann-chan was very impolite.  Ann-chan noted that she was wrong, so she left.  However, the doctor dropped in and he was drunk.  Sosuke had to take after him, Tsuhomi was unhappy and went away.  Sosuke found the divorce document held by the doctor.

The next day, the doctor went back home to get some clothes.  His little daughter came in and asked what he was doing.  His elder daughter and son told her that their father is going to divorce with their mother.  The doctor then suggested to go to the department store with them.  They said that they had to stay at home as their mother always asked them to study hard.

The doctor bought his son and daughters to the signing corner of Hikaruko.  His elder daughter is a fan of Hikaruko.  Hikaruko was happy to see the doctor too.  She asked, "how is..... your boss?"  "He is fine.  And the other colleague and Tsuhomi are fine too."  As they had been there for quite a while, the manager asked them to leave.  While they were leaving, Hikaruko shouted, "then how about.... the one who makes good ham sandwich?"  "You mean Sosuke?  He is fine too."  Hikaruko was happy.  The little daughter came up to Hikaruko and said, "seems that you like this Sosuke very much."  The doctor took her away at once.

They went back to the office, the doctor's wife was waiting for them as she found that the children were not at home.  The doctor said that he just want to take them to the department store.  His wife was angry and said that they should study hard and should not be their father when they grew up.  The doctor was angry and gave a smash on his wife's face.  He said that his wife was very nice before they got married.  And he still loves her and would not like to divorce.  He tore the document.  His wife found that she was wrong.  So the doctor, his wife and the children went back home happily.  The others were very touched.

Ann-chan told Hikaruko that she met Tsuhomi at Sosuke's home, and they had the dinner together.  Hikaruko looked nothing special but she felt onto the floor and got fainted.  The others sent her to the hospital at once.  When Hikaruko got fainted, she met her ex-boy friend, who was a grandpix racer and who was dead six years ago, in a dream.  He asked her to go with him.  "No, don't go away with him, stay with me."  Another one was shouting, it was Sosuke.  He ran up and held Hikaruko's arm.  Hikaruko was awake, and she still remembered the dream.

Ann-chan called Sosuke and told him that Hikaruko got fainted.  Sosuke ran to the hospital immediately.  He was held up by the boss and Hikaruko's manager at the front desk.  The boss asked why he ran to the hospital.  He said that Ann-chan told him that Hikaruko was not awake, so he was worried about her.  "She is awake now and she is ok.  But for her goodness' sake, please don't go to see her."  The boss told Sosuke.  So Sosuke left ......

Hikaruko told Ann-chan that she met Sosuke in a dream.  Ann-chan told Hikaruko that she really loves him so she dreams of him.  Hikaruko decided something.  When the manager when to Hikaruko's room, he found that she disappeared again.

Sosuke and Tsuhomi went to Sosuke's home for the hot pot again.  But Tsuhomi found that she forgot to buy some stuff.  She asked Sosuke to go home first.  Sosuke found Hikaruko at the front door of his home.

They went to a park.  "How are you?  Are you ok?"  Sosuke asked.  "I am ok now, thanks."  Hikaruko said.  Sosuke then began to say, " I should tell you so, I am now dating with Tsuhomi cause I found that she will be a good wife.  I think "ordinary people should get married with ordinary people"."  "Ah, what do you want to tell me?"  Sosuke asked Hikaruko.  "Um... I've already forgotten.  Sorry, so I am leaving now.  Bye."  Hikaruko went away with great disappointment.  How about Sosuke?  He was very sad too.....
