When Ulrich got to the coffee maker he sighed and picked up the mix for the cappuccino, this was not the life that he had pictured. When Yumi finally woke up she could hardily even move she was so exhausted. Ever since Yumi dropped out of college life hadn't been that easy. Once her parents found out about her dropping out of college they instantly disowned her and acted as if they had a super smart daughter that was a big hit lawyer in a far off country. Her brother Hiroki in the other hand still preferred to see his sister, he did owe her after all, if she hadn't interfered with his love life he would have never been able to ask Milly out by himself. Yumi rolled out of bed and slumped into the kitchen and started to make breakfast. Since Yumi only had her desperate job at the local McDonalds she wasn't exactly rich. When Yumi opened her frigerator she was greeted with the sight of nothing but half a gallon of milk and peanut butter in the back. When she opened the freezer she only saw frozen TV Dinners. Yumi slowly shut the door and slid to the floor. Yumi held her head in her hands and curled up into a tight ball, why was he life like this? Ulrich started to walk up the long staircase to his bedroom where he knew Sissi was still packing, she never went anywhere without asking him what he thought about something or what color he liked best in a shirt. At this point Ulrich didn't care about what she looked like, in his mind he thought what was the difference he was stuck with her for the rest of his life. Ulrich had often thought about leaving Sissi but anytime he tried to bring it up she always seemed to beat around the bush and bring something else up quickly. In his mind Ulrich often thought that he was all she had and that was why he stayed with her, she was all he had. Yumi quickly sucked up her emotions and got ready to work, Great, another day of flipping burgers and taking heat from total strangers. Yumi thought to herself as Yumi walked down the long flight of stairs to her car in the back parking lot. When she made it to her car Yumi took a minute to calm down for work that day, her boss did not allow emotions in the kitchen, that was why Yumi kept all he emotions pent up until she got home at night. "Here Sissi." Ulrich said as he handed her the coffee mug that was rapidly burning his hand. "O thank you Ulrich." Sissi said as she reached out and grabbed the cup of warm liquid. Ulrich walked across the room and opened his dresser draws looking for clothes for that day. Sissi could hear him opening a draw, "Don't even bother all of your clothes are already packed." Ulrich turned around to look at Sissi, his eyes were blood shot and red, "All of them?" Sissi turned around obviously proud of herself, "Yep." Ulrich groaned and turned towards the door. He slowly walked out of the room towards the bathroom; he was just going to have wear the same clothes again. As Ulrich started to strip down so he could get into the shower he started to think about Yumi. He could still remember the painful moment perfectly that Yumi had told him that she didn't' want to see him anymore. Ulrich breathed in deeply as the shower water started to run into his hair down his back. Yumi quickly rushed in the employee doors of McDonalds just as the clock struck twelve. At least I'm not late Yumi thought to herself as she went down a small hallway and appeared behind the counter. "Mr.Ishiyama it's great that you decided to join us today." Yumi's boss Mr. Trespa said to Yumi as Yumi was making her way to the cash registers. "Please sir, I had a difficult night, I promise this won't every happen again." Mr. Trespa looked at Yumi and laughed, "That's what you said yesterday." Yumi looked down at her feet guiltily, "Sir you must understand it's been a difficult week." Mr. Trespa blocked Yumi's way to the cash registers making the customers in line shift angrily in their places. "Sir if you really want people to like our food and come back I suggest you let me go do my job." Mr. Trespa smiled sarcastically, "Don't be smart with me, if you are late one more time you fired." Yumi looked up at her boss and laughed, "You know I don't need this, I quit." Mr. Tespa's face changed six different shades of red as Yumi walked out the front doors without looking back. In the store people in line laughed quietly to themselves.
