Graduation Day

Shizune's taxi was waiting.

[Shicchan, before you go. You promised me~]

[Now? In front of the others?]

[Are you ashamed Shicchan? We won't see anyone again. Come tomorrow no-one will care.]

[No! Of course I'm not...It's just...]

[Don't worry, I'll explain to them later.]

Shizune sighed.

[OK. Just one. And you better had explain to them first chance you get, I'll never hear the end of this from Satou otherwise]

Misha beamed as she moved forward.

For Shizune the world went pink.

Lilly was confused. She heard Hanako gasp, Emi squeal and clap her hands. Even the normally unflappable Rin quietly went "Woah."

Still hopping up and down Emi caught Lilly's expression and whispered an explanation in her ear.

"Oh. Oh my." said Lilly. She decided to leave it at that.
