(*Ranma is an energetic boy.*) Nodoka thought as she soaked in 
the furo. (*No, he is an energetic man. He throws himself into
anything he does. He may not like doing some things, but once
told, he will do it.*) She parted her long tresses, cleansed of
the toils of work and daily oils. Her hands enjoyed the slick
feel of well maintained hair. It was amazing the length of her
hair, hidden by the curled bun she normally wore.

  She breathed a wearied sigh. (*Genma, you fool, how could you
not teach him? It will not be easy for him to accept his
inheritance, even more so now. I must break the walls that you
have created without destroying the house that is his mind.*) She
stands in the furo, water sheeting off her. She stretched,
enjoying the relaxation the furo gave her.

  She stepped out of the large bath, and picked up her towel to
cover her considerable attributes. "No, it must be done the hard
way."
