Our First Dinner part 3

"Listen guys I'll be back". Said Hina. "I need to change my shirt. The red, long-sleeve, V-neck T-shirt Hina was wearing was ripped in half horizontally, and had several small rips on the sides. Zane was staring at the partially exposed Hina. "Pervert"! Exclaimed Mira while slapping Zane. "Mira! So what? My shirt's ripped, and he looked at me. It doesn't matter. Please be nice to him". Said Hina in an authoritative tone.
Hina left the room. "Zane you could have at least said something to me"! Whined Mira. Zane, in a teasing manner replied "Hi". James sat silently. "What is going on here". He thought. "Am i ready for all the changes coming my way"? Suddenly Hina walked back into the room. Her ripped shirt was replaced with a black tank top. Unlike Mira, Hina was very busty, it was obvious what stood out about her. At least about her appearance.
"Why can't I have a womanly figure like Hina". Thought Mira. Annoyed she shouted "Hey Hina can I get some milk from those utters". Zane burst into laughter, while Hina blushed. James came to her defense "Leave her alone! Can you be nice to her for one hour"!? Embarrassed Hina sat down. "It's okay, James"... She whispered. Hina, putting on a facade, asked "Why don't we all just start eating".
"Don't worry I'm waaaay ahead of you, girl". Said James starting on his third piece of chicken. "Glad you enjoy it". Said Hina with a shy smile.  "Wow this is really good". Said James. Hina thanked him. Every kind word towards Hina irritated Mira even more. "You burnt my potato". She said. Hina with a false smile told Mira "Don't worry there's more. Sorry if it's not the best. I had to use my fire powers to cook them. I literally threw them in the fire".
"Don't worry"! Said Zane unusually happy. "This is great! Better than my sister's cooking"... "Zane, why don't I make you lunch, and bring it to school for you"? Offered Mira. "Nah, I like the school's free food". He replied. "Oh, okay"... Said Mira.
  After everyone finished eating Hina stood up to give her speech. "Okay listen... Since this is an abandoned boarding house it has several rooms... If anyone wants to stay here overnight you can... I do every night. You should also come, and hang out during the day. As you know, I'm your leader, so It's my duty to protect you. If you want to go to dangerous territory please let me escort you. Also I've written me phone number on this sheet of paper. Everyone write yours too. Call me if you get in trouble. I'll text you guys if I want you to meet here". "Cool"! Said Mira. "Make sure you call me"! "Um, okay"... Replied Hina. Mira shot back "Not you Hina! The guys"! Hina smiled. "I see"...
"Well I'm staying here tonight, my sister is annoying, and I think incest crosses her mind a lot". Said Zane. "I'll stay too... I'm tired of place I stay". Said James. "Where do you stay"? Asked Mira. "In a room, inside of a ghetto, violent boarding house. I think I'll stay here permanently". Mira beamed "Good! I'll stay a couple nights". Zane smiled a little. "James I wish I could do what you're doing, but sis loves me to death, I can't leave her, and she seems to dislike Hina, and I don't want to cause any problems".
"Come on Zane why don't you just move in"? Asked Mira with puppy dog eyes. "It would cause too many problems"... He said. "But... I'll probably spend most of my time here, I just like it for some reason". Hina gave another fake smile. "Don't worry, you just do what you feel is best, besides Mira has pretty questionable objectives". Zane smiled. "Thanks... You've been so kind". Hina smiled, this time it was a real one that overtook her.
"Aww... You finally smiled for real"! Said James. Hina blushed. "I'd better go tell my sister I'm staying here tonight". Said Zane. "Or my sister will come get me". He left the building walking in a drunk fashion. He bumped into a tall lamp. "Sorry". He said before reaching the exit. "Why does everyone seem to like Hina so much". Mira mumbled, accidentally, out loud. Hina told her "I wouldn't call two people everyone, and besides you, Shannon, and Mei don't seem to like me". Mira looked at Hina shyly "I don't h-hate you or anything... You just Irritate me"! She said. "I know what you mean". said Hina.
