Je N'ai Pas De Mots 2

Jasmine followed Jandra down the hallway.

"Where are you going?" she asked.

"Why do you care?" Jandra asked.

"Well… I don't really have anything to do at home," Jasmine admitted. "I live alone. Mom's back in the States making sure there's money for me to keep coming here." Jandra looked at her from the corner of her eye.

"You mean you don't even have an uncle or a brother to stay with you?" she asked.

"No," Jasmine said. "What about you?"

"Me neither," Jandra admitted. "I don't need anyone to stay with me."

"Well, neither do I," Jasmine said. "I just think I should use any free time I have now, before we start getting pelted with homework."

"Hmm," Jandra mused.

"So where are we going?"

Jandra rolled her eyes.

"I don't know."

Jasmine looked at the ceiling.

"Well, that's helpful."

Jandra's lips quirked into an almost-smile. She could take a liking to this Jasmine girl.

"You know… we could probably fool everyone into believing we are really twins."

Jasmine began to laugh.

"That would be pretty funny if we pulled it off until graduation," she said.

"Exactly!" Jandra was suddenly passionate. "It will be the biggest prank in the history of pranks!"

"Well, if we're going to pull it off, we need a good story that we both know," Jasmine said, becoming business-like.

"Oh, I've already got that planned out," Jandra said. "Our parents divorced when we were one. I went with Dad to Ireland and you stayed with Mum in America. We had been kept secret from each other, but earlier this year, you figured out when you accidentally read a page of Mom's old diary and you convinced her into letting us meet."

Jasmine stood there for a moment.

"Perfect!"

They shook hands on it.

"Now, let's go try out our plan," Jandra said. "If we can't get through one day, we'll never get through the next three years."

"Wait. Right now?"

"Yes, right now."

"But, school's out for the day," Jasmine observed, peering down the empty hallways.

"There is always some kind of after-school activity going on," Jandra reasoned. They wandered the halls, managing to get up to the third floor before finding anything.

"Ooh, let's check in here," Jasmine said, looking at a sign that had a Japanese character she really knew: music.

"Music Room Three…. I don't hear any music," Jandra commented. Jasmine grabbed the left door's handle and Jandra grabbed the right. They opened the doors.

A whirlwind of rose petals zoomed past them into the hallway and the faux twins squinted through the bright lights of the room. After blinking a few times, they heard a chorus of voices.

"Welcome, ladies, to the Ouran Host Club!"
