Kasumi becomes busier than ever with her studies , so the day we don't see each other continues..
....And then one night at dinner.
"Mina ? did you see Kasumi off this morning ?" asked Reimako while putting some food at the table..
"No...she already left when i return from my part time job..."
"I see...she's been leaving the house much earlier than before..." she worriedly said.
"Y-yeah....i'm worried as well..."
"And she sleeps really late too .." says Yomiko while helping Rei
"Huh ? , Really ?"
"Yeah. The other day i came back really late from work , i think that's about around 2am , and she's still grinding with the books here in the living room.."
"R-really ?!"
I know she's really serious about her studies but , that's a tad bit too much ...
That's probably why we haven't been able to see each other even though we lived on the same roof..
( i do understand it though , that's her dream after all , of course i miss her ..and i want to see her when she comes home tonight at least , but she won't let me pick her up and assist her home..)
"Kasumi...i hope she's okay. I wonder if she'll come home early tonight ?" Tegemi seems to worry as well..
"ah, she said that today...she might be going home late today.."
( I'm worried , i guess i'm going to pick her up at the university today..)
I decide to myself at the dinner table..
....And then that evening...
I wait for Kasumi infront of their university gate.. i confirmed from the security guard who's standing in front of the gate that their still some students in there and probably one of them is Kasumi so i decided to wait ..i look at my watch and it's already 11 pm..
(wow..she's really late , i wonder how she's doing ..?)
(Well it's a good thing , there's a lot of drink dispenser near guess i'll drink some coffee to keep me up...)
After a while.....
( wow..i'm really glad there's a lot of drink dispenser near , this is my 15th can of black coffee and everything is in slow motion now...)
After a few hours...
(well there's still some light their she's still probably there....)
When...his phone rang..
*Hello ' Mina ?"
"Oh Kasumi , hi ! is class finished ?"
Kasumi answered in a confused voice..
"huh ?! my class ended a few hours ago , i'm at my parents home i got home at 9pm , i just call in because..uhm..i just want to hear your voice ,and i want you to know that i'll be staying here for the night by the way were are you are you home already ? or still at work ?"
"Oh....." (so she's already home huh, i guess it got in a bit late...) i'm still at work , but i'm about to finish for the night.." ( i lied again , forgive me , i don't want you to worry about me..)
"Is , that so ..uhm anyway , i'll see you at the Famille' Mina , goodnight "
*toot*
"G-goodnight..."
(Well might as well go home ....) he walks away from the university
When he reach the train station....
"No train ? how could it be....oh right it already 1am , the last trip was an hour ago...."
*sigh*
"I guess i'll be sleeping here for the night...hehehe....heh.." he just laughs it off nonchalantly..
I let out another sighed of relief then sat on the train station chairs to wait for the morning ..
"So she stayed at her parent's house , that's a relief , come to think of it , i think it's more maybe that's were she's staying when she have a long lecture at nights no wonder she won't allow me to pick her up..."
When i calm down , sleepiness and tiredness starts to kick in...and slowly began to drift asleep..
When....
