Pain.
Pain was all Ulrich felt. Sitting under the tree in the park, legs burning from running, face burning from the tears, heart burning from…He couldn't bring himself to acknowledge what happened between them, what she had…what she had done…how she had betrayed him.
He had confronted Yumi after he saw them…After he had seen Yumi on top of Tom in the park, hands on necks and mouths in mouths. Yumi had tried to assure him that is was a one-time thing, but he had seen them with his own eyes, every Sunday for the past 5 weeks. It was over, and he couldn't bear to believe it. He didn't want to tell anyone yet, as that would make it all too real.
The next morning, Odd had woken up at the distinct smell of bacon. Running out the room, he noticed something strange: Ulrich was still in bed. Usually he was the first in their group to be awake, unless Jeremy had stayed up all night in the factory, of course. Odd just walked on by without giving it much notice. Walking through the hallway and down the stairs, through the courtyard to meet the rest of the gang for breakfast. "Where's Ulrich and Yumi?" Jeremy asks as Odd approaches, "He's Still sleeping, I'm slightly worried, he's usually up fairly early. As for Yumi, I don't know." "Maybe your dog kept him up!" Aelita says. Odd frowns as the rest of them laugh. Halfway through breakfast Ulrich slowly walks in the cafeteria. "What kept you?" Odd asks, "I don't want to talk about it." Ulrich quickly rebuttals before starting his breakfast. "What's up with you?" says Odd, Ulrich remains silent. "Come on, tell us already." Aelita says. Ulrich cracks under pressure, "Yumi cheated on me ok! Just shut up!" He shouts before storming off. The group sits there, stunned and unable to react.
