This story takes place a couple of days after the ordeal at yoshio's place. it is a sunny morning in saitama at the machishio house. as everyone is doing their morning routine sun is in her room getting her school clothes on.

"Nagasumi! Sun! Breakfast!" nagasumi's mom yells from the bottom of the stairs.

"oh,ok!" says sun walking out the room

"oh, sun could you go check on nagasumi? he's probably still sleeping. I swear, that boy never wakes up when he should." says nagasumi's mom

"ok, no problem." says sun

she then walks down the hall and slowly goes up the steps to the attic. nagasumi is laying on the floor in his bed still sleeping.

"nagasumi. wake up, nagasumi. your mom made breakfast and it's almost time to go to school." sun says standing to the side of him

nagasumi does not respond and remains asleep.

"nagasumi!...come on. get up, sleepyhead."

she pulls the blankets off of him then flinches as she sees nagasumi has a bulge in his pants. it's apparent that he has a "stiffie". sun's eyes widen and her face turns red. nagasumi yawns then sits up and opens his eyes seeing sun standing there.

"oh,good morning sun...huh? what's wrong?" he says

he then looks down at himself realizing what he has, and quickly covers his midsection.

"Ahhhhhh! Oh No!" says nagasumi

A few minutes later nagasumi and sun are dressed and sitting at the dinner table along with nagasumi's dad and mom. the two are eating slowly facing away from each other and both have embarrassed looks on their faces.

"hm, is something wrong you two?" says mom

"no, we're fine." they both say at the same time

"uh...ok." says mom

"man...can't believe sun saw that. she probably thinks I'm a sicko now." thinks nagasumi

"...can't get that image out of my head..." thinks sun panting a little

A minute after that nagasumi and sun start to walk to the door.

"have a good day at school." says mom

"ok, later mom and dad. let's go, sun." says nagasumi with his hand on the doorknob.

"...ok, here I come..." says sun who is walking to the door slowly and looks woozy still panting.

"huh? are you alright, sun? you look a little...tired." says nagasumi

"huh?...no,I'm...fine..." says sun

"hmm..." says nagasumi putting his hand on sun's forehead
"you are a little warm...mom,dad."

soon after sun is sitting on the couch with a thermometer in her mouth.

"well, your temperature is a bit high. I think you should stay home for today." says dad

"aww...but...I wanted to walk with nagasumi..." says sun

"oh, don't worry about me, sun. I'll be fine. just stay home for today and get well. I'll catch you up on all of today's schoolwork, uh...if I can remember it." says nagasumi

"...ok" says sun

"I think we've got some medicine here somewhere, but I don't know if it will help mermaids." says dad

"I'll ask sun's parents when I go to school today." says nagasumi

"good idea." says mom

"ok, I'm off. be sure to get some rest today, sun. I'll see you later." says nagasumi

"ok...have a good day,nagasumi..." says sun

nagasumi goes out the door and proceeds to walk down the sidewalk as he does every day.

"gee, I do hope sun's ok. it's a little weird not having her walk with me to school. I've gotten used to it..." nagasumi thinks then sighs

unaware to him as he is walking a figure from across the street spots him. it's his friend, hideyoshi sarutobi or "chimp"

"YOOOOOOO! NAGASUMI!" chimp shouts out as he lunges toward him

without even looking nagasumi ducks and chimp flies face first into a tree. nagasumi keeps walking.

"hmm...it will be kinda dull today, but..." thinks nagasumi

chimp then comes from behind and lunges.

"Nagasumi!"

nagasumi steps to the left and chimp flies into a street sign.

"then again, I'm used to dull. hehe." thinks nagasumi

chimp appears again and jumps up toward nagasumi.

"Gotcha now!"

nagasumi ducks again and chimp falls in a sewer hole.

"AHHHHHHH!..." he says until he lands at the bottom making a splash.

later on at school nagasumi is sitting at his desk and chimp is standing near him bruised, drenched, and smelly.

"wow...it seems your senses have improved vastly, nagasumi.." says chimp

"huh? what are you talking about?...and why do you look all banged up?" says nagasumi

"you...you really don't have to gloat." says chimp

Just then kai mikawa enters the room and darts over to nagasumi.

"Machishio! I challenge you!" says kai

"what? what are you talking about now?" says nagasumi with an annoyed face

"I challenge you for sun's hand!...huh? where is sun? where's my sun?" says kai

"calm down. she wasn't feeling well so she stayed home today." says nagasumi

"what?! what did you do to her?!" says kai

nagasumi sighs and says "nothing, now leave me be, panda man."

"What?! what'd you call me?! I'm a orca not a panda!" says kai

"sure, whatever you say, Mr. dolphin.." says nagasumi

"Orca, damn you! Orca!" yells kai

The classroom door slides open and a man in a suit walks in and stands near the teacher's desk.

"Everyone, please be seated." says the man

Kai and chimp quickly dart to their seats.

"good morning students. my name is mr. sho and I'm your new teacher for the time being in place of mr. seto who had to take a leave of absence. well, hope we all can get along."

"whoa, so sun's dad's not here? that's odd..." thinks nagasumi

Later on nagasumi walks to the nurse's office. he opens the door and sees rin seto, sun's mom, standing there.

"oh, hello nagasumi. a pleasant surprise seeing you here." says rin

"hey mrs. seto, I'm glad you're here." says nagasumi walking in

"likewise. you're looking good these days, nagasumi. you've gotten so manly in such a short time." says rin walking over to him

"heh heh...uh, thank you...oh, I wanted to ask you. where'd mr. seto go?" says nagasumi

"oh, he had some business to tend to so he went back to the seto inland sea for a while. so for now I'm in charge of the seto gang here." says rin

"oh, I see." says nagasumi
"well, at least I won't have to deal with mr. angry for a while..." he thinks

"and don't worry nagasumi, I'll make sure nothing happens to you. nothing bad anyway." says rin getting closer to him

"oh...ok..." says nagasumi
"oh yeah there's something else..."

"hmm?" says rin

A few minutes later.

"oh, so sun has a fever and stayed home. aww, poor girl." says rin

"yeah..." says nagasumi

"well, normal medicine should work, after all we are part human. some medicine and rest should do the trick." says rin

"great!" says nagasumi

"but...are you ok, nagasumi?" asks rin

"huh? oh yeah, I'm fine. I didn't catch anything." says nagasumi

"no, that's not what I mean. I'm sure that you were lonely coming to school by yourself, and with sun sick she won't be able to tend to your needs later. so maybe...I should keep you company in her place." she says getting right near him touching his face

"w-wha?" says nagasumi nervously

"of course my husband's not here so now...we can get better...acquainted." says rin as he now leans his backside against a desk and she leans against him

he starts to sweat a great deal.

"you don't need to be scared, nagasumi. I'll take...good care of you."

she then leans in even closer with her breasts rubbing against his body. he is sweating bullets and his entire face is beet red.

"uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh..." he says with a stutter.
"Dangerously close! Dangerously close! Overheat! Overheat!" he thinks

Then he quickly gets away from her and stops in front of the door.

"sorry mrs. seto but I forgot I have an important errand to run. yes, very important indeed. so maybe I'll take you up on your offer some other time, yes? ok, and thank you again. well I'm gonna take off now. bye-bye then!" nagasumi says very fast then darts down the hall.

"heh heh...dear nagasumi. I'll let you go for now, but you won't get away next time.." rin says to herself with a grin

meanwhile nagasumi who has already made it outside is catching his breath.

"whoa...that was strange...but...sun's mom is...is...is hot!"
