There I sat on my futon in my dark room with the windows wide open to let the cold air punish my exposed skin. What have I done?
I was interrupted by a knock on my door.
"Who is it ?" I asked automatically. I did try to stop my self but it was too late. So I quickly hopped in to futon and faced the opposite direction of the door. Nobody should see me the brave cool-headed leader of the investigation team down in the dumps about the recent problems in my life. I should focus more on finding the killer than moping around. Yeah I just needed to take my mind off of what happened. Why did I.
I was interrupted by the gruff voice of Dojima. "Its just me, can I come in?"
"Sure" I said having no proper reason against letting him in. Besides if I don't let him in then he will think somethings wrong. I turned to face him.
He then proceed to kick the door open lightly. He was holding two cups one in each hand.
"Geez its cold in here" he said with a slight shiver.
"Yeah sorry about that I left the windows open" I said not wanting him to find out the true reason why. He raised an eyebrow.
"Anyway I brought you a cup of tea" he said placing the cup of tea next to my futon. He then turned on the light. The flash of light stabbed my already sore eyes like a needle. I decided to rub my eyes and sit up to drink the tea. He than sat next to me sipping on his on tea. I took a sip of the tea. It burned the tip of my tongue.
"Damn this tea's hot" I yelped.
"Sorry about that anyway how's school?" he said the how's school part came as a complete surprise the first thought that came to mind was did one of them tell him?
Making sure my face did reveal anything "My grades are good I got the top mark its almost if i could skip the semester and still pass with straight A's" I said. Dojima smiled
"Just like my sister I see" he said
"You know I believe you could actually so feel to skip school every now and then" he continued
"Are you serious" I asked. With that extra time I could become stronger and get my social links and I could-. No I thought interrupting that thought.
"Only if you answer my question properly this time" he said unleashing his inner detective to get the appropriate information
"But you didn't ask the right question detective" I said with a raised eyebrow while sipping on my tea. He grinned.
"Okay your right for a detective that was pretty bad of me"
"Okay what happened at school today" He said straight out giving me no time to mask the shock.
I looked away "Nothing" I murmered my words not having the confidence I wish the did.
He placed his hand on my shoulder. I looked at him to see he was analyzing my face. No doubt seeing my red eyes, my puffy cheeks and finally my still wet face.
"You've been crying haven't you" he said softly.
"Its nothing" I said with a bit more confidence a smile as I set my cup of tea down.
He then drew me into a hug.
"I shouldn't of asked if your crying about it" he apologized. It feels like he cares about like a parent should. More then my father.
"Its okay Dojima you didn't know" I said.
"Im sorry its just your so leveled headed I never expected this from you it must be serious to effect you like this" He said
"Like I said its okay" I said with a cheerful grin on my face. He then released his grip from me.
"Well I think its time we both went to bed" he said.
"But I thought you wanted to know?"
"Just tell me when your ready and if feel like skipping school go ahead I'm pretty sure your grades won't suffer"
"Dojima"
"what?"
"thanks" I said. He smiled then flicked the light off and left.
I then got comfortable in futon. Maybe it was good that Dojima came to talk to me. Maybe everything will blow over tomorrow. Maybe "she" won't remember what happened. But who told Dojima?
