Neither had been particularly thrilled with the idea, but both admitted it was the only way. And the girls had reacted in different ways as well.
Kasumi had been very supportive of the idea, hoping against hope that it would be good for her father. The fact that Nodoka was one of the last connections to Ranma helped as well. And, of course, Nodoka had encouraged Kasumi to finally go into college.
Akane avoided her new step-mother, and Nodoka couldn't certainly understand that. She hoped Akane would change her mind eventually, however, she was very busy now. She continued to get sponsorships and was even now working on a drama doctorate with plans to start a filming company soon afterward.
Nabiki was also busy, but not so focused on school. Nabiki thought she hid it well, but Nodoka could see what drove the middle daughter. She'd seen the secret photo album and suspected that Nabiki's median grades represented hours spent on a side project that she told no one about. So, while her younger sister rose through the university and won scholarship after scholarship, Nabiki was scrimping and saving, sometimes forced to take semesters off to earn the money to continue her education.
And now she was entering the police academy. Nodoka hoped that that would help the girl out some, but feared the middle Tendo was driving toward a burn-out.
And of course, there was the recent development.
Her new child, perhaps her last child, due anytime now.
