Shigure and Yuki were sitting at their table, waiting for Tohru to serve another wonderful home-cooked meal.

"I haven't seen Tohru all day today," Shigure said. "I wonder what she's been doing."

As if on cue, Tohru swept into the room. She was dressed in black from head to foot, and her face had an unusually somber expression. She turned down the lights in the room, lit a candle and set it on the table, bowed formally, and then silently returned to the kitchen.

"This is only a guess," Yuki said, "but she might have spent the day with Hanajima."
