After school Tomomi had been shopping for snacks for her dorm when she needed something to eat. She couldn't cook, so the microwave in her dorm wouldn't be put to much use, and she didn't like to cook too.
As she was walking back from her dorm, a storm began, with icy rains and such, since it was the winter time.
She ran to the nearest shelter she could find, a temple about a half a mile away from the school.
She walked around the temple, holding her bags tight, and though she was wet with rain, she was facsinated by the ceiling, decorated with gold designs.
Since she had no umbrella, she decided to wait until the rain ended, and sat by the wall, opening a package of sour gummy worms she had just bought.
Soon the door opened. It was probably another person who got caught in the rain was Tomomi's thinking.

What rotten luck! I wanted to look at this nice place thoroughly and it just had to rain! In the distance was a blurry picture of a rock temple. This place has everything! I jogged across the ground in wet sneakers and eased open the door. The door clicked from behind. I lifted my sopping bangs only to see the person I least expected.

As the person walked in, Tomomi realized that it was the someone she had once known, but was the least expected person that she thought she would see coming through those double doors, "Tsukiko?" She said dumbly, with a red and blue sour gummy worm in her mouth.
She swallowed it and looked closer.
It was her best friend from grade school! Tsukiko!
Tomomi stood, "Is that you Tsukiko!"
Tomomi's eyes were wide in disbelief, but what she saw was not an illusion.

A huge smile spread over Tsukiko's face as she glimpsed at the being in front of her. "Tomomi!" She ran over and gave her grade school friend a death hug that was greeted by a stifled choke. She finally let go and eagerly asked "What brings you here?"

"Remember? I'm going to the Tama Boarding School! I tried to call your house but...there wasn't anyone home, so I had left the message. Did you get in too?" Tomomi explained smiling at each word.

"Of course! This is so cool that we will be in the same school!" Tsukiko jumped around like a glee struck teenager (duh!) and dropped her bag in the process. "At least I'll know one person here! By the way...my kumi is daaku. Are you the same? Because if you are we could see eachother in the dorms!" Tsukiko crossed her fingers and toes just in case.

"Oh, good!" Tomomi replied smiling, "I'm in Daaku too!"
Tomomi looked outside to see it wasn't rain-snowing any more and started to grab her bags, "Ever since we went to different schools in junior high, I have been awaiting a day when we'd see eachother again!" She turned to Tsukiko, "I'd better show you around to the dorms and all that jazz, since it stopped raining. Let's go!"
Tomomi smiled, holding the bags waiting for Tsukiko at the door, "Uh, could you get the door too, please?"

"Sure!" Tsukiko swung on her backpack and stepped across the firm floor. She held out a newly dried hand and pushed open the glass door for her friend to go through into the trickling rain. It was time to start anew!
