(Hmnm...Is it morning already?)

I pick up my alarm clock, and it's a little before 5am.

(I want to sleep a little bit longer but...)

Just then...

(Hmn? That's footsteps who could be awake at this early?)

Wondering what's going on, I peer out into the hallway.

"Ah, Mina?"

"Tegemi?"

She's just locking her room door leaving for work.

"Isn't it a bit early?"

"Yes, I had a late start yesterday so I have to make up for it today."

She smiled a worried smile.

"I'm sorry, did I wake up?"

"No, I decided to wake up early to prepare breakfast for everyone."

"My how diligent, that's our new landlord for you."

"Please."

"Well, it's unfortunate I couldn't eat the breakfast your about to make, but i have to go now, Mina."

"Yeah, maybe next time? I'll see you later Tegemi."

"Yes, see you later."

Waving gently, she leaves for work.

(Well, time to cook some breakfast...)

Then, at around 7am.

When I've finished breakfast and I'm taking it easy in the living room.

"Ah, umm, Mina."

"Yeah?"

Rei approaches me, her eyes darting around restlessly.

"Has Tegemi already left for work?"

"Ah, yes, She left early this morning."

"Ah, really..."

She looks a bit trouble and sighed as she lets out a little sigh.

"What is it, Rei?"

"I made lunch for her."

"She's been really busy with work lately..."

Rei clutches a cute hand –made lunch in her hands.

(That's a shame, after she went to all that trouble to make it.)

"It's alright; I'll make her another one later."

"I could deliver it to her, if you want?"

"Huh? Really?!"

"Yes, I don't have any classes this morning and my and I'm at night shift at work today."

When I suggested it Rei's face glows.

"Thank you so much! Here you go!"

"Ok, I'll tell you where Tegemi works,"

And so...

I arrive at Tegemi's office building carrying her lunch.

"Whoa! I never have been to this of the city before." As I awed in wonder from all the huge and tall buildings.

An extremely tall building stands in front of me.

And all around are lots of high-class offices.
