Yumi was doing much better. She got to go back to school.

"How are you feeling?" Noemie asked. "It was very lonly without you."

"I wasn't lonely." Yumi said as Akamaru popped out of her back pack.

"So, THAT'S where he was." Odd said.

"Yeah." Yumi said as Sissi walked over.

"Hey Ulrich." Sissi said.

"Hey Sissi, did you know we both use the same shampoo?" Akamaru said. "Sakura, my favorite."

"I smell like a dog, I smell like a dog!" Sissi said walking away.

Later that day Yumi and Ulrich met up in the park.

"You know we need to finish something." Ulrich said, without a word, Yumi kissed him. He kissed back.
