And finally the vacation...

They reached the bus station early in the morning the next day. Most schools were closing on the same day and there were students everywhere walking around with backpacks and trunks. Keiro turned to Roju who was with her.

Keiro: "Looks like you'll have to go back on your own, Roju.I'm gonna be staying with Shimlee. And remember, before you make a new invention you should consult with me...and don't experiment with any living thing, no, not even dead bodies...and don't use that time travel machine and..."

Roju: "I'll just come with you."

Keiro: "What?"

Shimlee: "What?"

Roju: "I said I'm coming with you."

Keiro: "But don't you want to go home, you dummy? What are you gonna tell your parents eh??"

Roju dialed his mom's number on the phone.

Roju: "Hey mom, I'm gonna travel with Keiro for a month, ...yeah I need to take care of her..."

Keiro raised an eyebrow. Who is taking care of who here?

After Roju got his approval he hung up. Shimlee then went ahead and booked one extra ticket for him. After she came back with the ticket, they were about to board the bus when they spotted Berthy boarding a bus nearby.

Keiro: "Let's go wish our Mom a happy vacation."

Berthy was sitting near the window. They went near the window and called him.

"Hey mommy, mom! Happy vacation!"

Berthy did not seem to hear them so they called out more loudly...

"HEY MOMMY.....here..over here! MOM, we'll miss you...."

Berthy's face grew red..What the hell... These brats were embarrassing him, he looked straight ahead and pretended not to hear them.

The guy sitting near Berthy drew his attention to them. "I think they are calling for you..."

Berthy: "I am sorry. I don't know who they are."

At last, he turned around and asked them to get lost.

Berthy: "And don't make any trouble wherever you are going..." God only knew what these three brats were capable of. At least, he'll have some peace for two months...

Keiro: "We'll come visit you Berthy!"

Berthy: "Oh no, please don't.."

They waved goodbye to him and went to find their own bus.

Keiro looked at the bus and read the destination name. Wait a minute...

Keiro: "LEBLUE BAY? Why are we going to Leblue? I thought you lived in Gartha.."

Shimlee chuckled."We are going to live with my Grandma."

Keiro: "You mean that grandma from whom you got that gene ...That grandma who can see ghosts...?"

Shimlee nodded her head.

Keiro: "Haha, then I'm not going.."

Shimlee: "Oh yes you are!" Shimlee dragged Keiro to the bus. Roju pushed her into the bus from behind. Keiro protested in vain.

Shimlee: "It's too late now Keiro..."

Keiro: "You planned this didn't you?" Keiro searched for her seat. When she finally found it, she could not believe her eyes. Near her seat, sat President Moncee!! This could not be happening...

Keiro: "Where are you going President?" She tried to sound calm.

Moncee: "Leblue...what about you?"

This could not be a coincidence...

Keiro: "You should be enjoying your precious summer vacation President, it would be a waste to follow me all the way there simply for the sake of revenge, don't you think?"

Moncee: "Woah, don't be full of yourself, my cousin lives there and what I do is none of your business...I think you are the one following me to Leblue."

As if she would invite her own death! The bus started moving and Keiro sat down reluctantly.

Keiro: "Can I have the window seat?"

Moncee: "No."

Shimlee and Roju were sitting in front of them.

Shimlee: "Something tells me we are gonna have a fun vacation, hahaha...."
