I woke up to find Chiyeko on my arm, sleeping. I kept my window open last night; which was a good thing. It was dark outside, so I didn't have to get up yet. After a half hour, Chiyeko woke up. "So, aren't you a sleepy spider!" I said.
"Morning, Kaoru. So, are you going to school today?" she asked.
"Yeah. Do you want to come with me today, Chiyeko? My class is preparing the decorations for the school dance today. I guess that you'd like to do something like that. Maybe you can meet my friends."
She liked the idea and came with me to school. As I walked in, Miyako, Katsou, Minoru, Momoko, and Makoto waved at me, revealing a seat they saved for me. I sat down, Chiyeko stayed perched on my shoulder.
"Kaoru, there is a spider on your shoulder." Miyako said, pointing at Chiyeko.
"It's ok. This is Chiyeko. She knows me." I raised my hand so Chiyeko could go in my hand. Then I lowered her to the table. "She is quite friendly."
They all said hi to her, even though they couldn't speak spider. After, we all created decorations to add to the cafeteria tomorrow.

"How do you think I feel?" The next day, I went to the lab to hang out.
"Hey everybody!" I sat on the couch next to my friends, who said hi to me. Then we heard a bang. We turned to see Him standing behind us. My forehead started burning like I was getting a fever. For some reason, I couldn't move.
"Hello, Buttercup. What a surprise to see you here." I started trembling.
Blossom got up. "Why are you here, Him? We didn't invite you. And why are you being so nice to Buttercup, and not us?"
"Why don't you ask her?" He grinned mischievously. Then he disappeared.
"Buttercup, tell us why!" Bubbles pleaded. I knew that if I didn't tell them, they would not talk to me until I do. I decided that the only way to stop my guilt was to tell them.
"H-he told m-me t-that I'm h-his n-niece.
