Saturday 14.32 PM

Jesus, lately I've got a pretty good taste of what it feels like to live with someone who stays in the bathroom for at least half an hour every single day! Yet, she's the one telling me that I didn't buy an apartment with seperate bathrooms! I've thought this several times, and I'll think it again:

Maybe moving in with Azusa wasn't the best idea.

We've been dating ever since we graduated from high school, which was…3 years. Ever since we started in the same class, I had a crush on her. I felt as if I was someone special to her, because she treated me so nicely. Turned out, she treats every single boy she knows that way. Over time, we became close friends and I was happy that she didn't hate me at least. Though I was in pain, since I was too scared to cofess to her. I can't even remember the day I confessed to her. All I remember was her crooked smile and flushed cheeks. With her being so popular around boys, I was lucky she liked me back. For a few years, we were happy. I didn't think that anything bad could happen…Until something about her changed.

I don't know what happened to the old Azusa. The kind, cheerful one. Almost as if…She started to see me as a bother. Out of very little things, she'll start an argument, almost forcing me to yell at her. I thought that buying an apartment for the two of us would make us closer, but it only made things worse. But that doesn't mean that we don't have our moments. In a way, we still take care of and support each other. I'm sure that with a little more bonding and trust, we'll make it through.

I'm sure I still love her…

I jumped in surprise as Azusa opened the door and came out of the bathroom. She looked at me and frowned. «Something wrong?» she asked. «Ah…No», I mumbled and grabbed the laundry basket which was full of Azusa's sweaty or dirty clothes. Unaware of what she was wearing, she groaned and spun around. «What do you think? I thought I could wear it for work», she said and grinned. I slightly raised my face to carefully look at the mint-green, slighty see-through shirt and the tigerfur printed shorts she was wearing. «It looks nice», I said and took a step closer to the bathroom. Damn, this basket is so heavy…!

«Ugh…You've always been using boring words…», she mumbled annoyed and sat down on the couch, crossing her legs. Gosh, she didn't have to be that harsh… With some struggle, I managed to carry the basket to the washing machine. Wait…I shouldn't be responsible for this! These clothes are all Azusa's! Shouldn't she be the one putting them in there? I have to speak up.

«Hey, Azusa…sweetie?» I asked, kind of embarrassed to call her «sweetie». «What?» she mumbled. «You know that this is your laundry, right?» I asked. «What about it?» she asked. I sighed and said: «You should be the one responsible of getting these cleaned! Right now, it feels like I'm the only one washing all of our clothes!»

She slightly clenched her fists and hissed out: «Yoshiki, I did emptied the basket 2 times last week! It's only fair if you do it this time». Another thing that changed about her…Her honesty. It seems that she just keeps telling lies whenever it comes in handy. This is just making me more and more frustrated. It's so tempting to just…run away…

«Listen for a second, would you? I told you that it feels like I'm the only one washing our clothes! Do you know why I said that? Because I've been the only one washing them, THIS ENTIRE MONTH!» I literally spit out the final three words at her, only pissing her more off.

«Now you're just over exaggerating! Don't you dare think I'm lazy after cooking dinner for you every single day this week!» she yelled and rose up from the couch, glaring at me. «You did that because you wanted to pay me back for also making dinner the past 3 weeks!» I yelled back. She pressed her lips tightly together and turned away from me. I took a couple of deep breaths, making me calm down and calmly say: «Azusa…I just need your support…». She didn't answer me at all. Maybe I went a bit over the edge…

«Azusa…I- -

«Please…Can you go somewhere else…»

I lowered my head in shame and regret. Good job Yoshiki, you did it again… «I just…I don't want to see your face right now…», she said coldly. I sighed, put on my leather jacket and my shoes and slammed the door behind me. It feels really good to get out of that atmosphere, holy crap…

The clouds were completely covering the sky as I started running to the record store right next to my work place. I was going to get that brand new album by Fade. I heard their new song «One Reason» is in there, so I have to buy it! Begging that it wouldn't be sold out, I kept running to the record store.

*AT THE RECORD STORE*

As usual, there weren't many people inside. But I guess that's a part of the place's charm. Kind of a slightly dull, comfy mood. The few people that were listening to certain albums using the store's headphones, seemed to enjoy what they were hearing. They were in their own little world…I guess that's what's so amazing about music.

After taking in the awesome view of the huge collections of CDs, I asked the guy behind the desk: «Do you have any more of the new Fade album?» The guy nodded and said: «We don't have many left though, so you better be quick if you want your hands on one…Ah, it's over there by the way», he said and pointed at the left side of the store. «Thanks a bunch», I said and hurried over to where he pointed at.

Next to the spot, I noticed another girl inspecting a CD cover while listening to what I assumed was the same CD. Not paying that much attention to the girl, I looked every where on the shelf, but couldn't find it. Just as I cussed under my breath, I glanced over at the girl next to me without thought.

Hm…I don't think I've seen her around here before. She looks…authentic. Long, dark-blue hair, blue eyes, pale skin… No, I definitely haven't seen her before. Not even close to girls I've seen in the past. Maybe she just recetly moved here…Yeah, that makes sense. Wow, she's so short! She looks like she's around my age though, and- -…..Man, those eyes…

She had turned a little to the side, so I could observe her eyes a bit more clearly. They…They're glistening a lot. It's so pretty… Wait…Is that…! Just as I looked away from her eyes, I noticed that the CD she was inspecting, was the only Fade album left. Dammit… As I kept cussing in my mind, she noticed me and took off the headphones. That shimmering, pure voice echoed through my body, making me shiver as she asked:

«Is something wrong, sir?»

Holy mother of God…What in the world was that…?! I coughed quietly and said: «U-um…That album…». «Ah…», she mumbled and looked at the album she was holding. «It was the only one left, so…»

«Is that so…», I muttered. Gosh, what a depressing Saturday…ugh… «You wanted it, then?» she asked and looked up at me. I can't really tell her to simply give it to me, as innocent and nice she seemed. «I do, but…I've already heard the songs, so it's okay», I said. I'm sure it was an obvious lie. I've never been especially good at lying, and I rarely do it anyways. Her eyes widened and she asked: «Are you sure?» I smiled a bit and said: «Yeah». She smiled and said: «Thank you so much! I've been wanting this album ever since it came out!» Heh…She's like an overly excited school girl…I could feel my heart beating faster as she smiled at me.

«Ah…Don't mention it…», I said casually. She firmly bowed and ran to the desk to pay for the album. Just as I was about to leave the record store, I felt my phone vibrate from my pocket. Did I get a message..? I picked up my phone and read the text:

I'm so sorry for earlier!

I didn't mean to yell at you like that and tell you to leave.

Please come back, babe…

Love you 33

-Azusa

Heh…I guess some parts of her still hasn't changed at all. I put my phone back and slowly walked to my apartment.

I guess a part of me still was mad at her.
