"Here you go. See you tomorrow!" That's what he said as he left her at her door, with another grin.

Tsuki blushed. She was sitting on her bed, water dripping from her hair onto the bedsheet. Not that she cared. Her mind was filled with Yamamoto's smile. With a start, she sat upright and slapped herself. She thought about why she came to Namimori.


"I still love you."

"As if." She said sarcastically. "There is no way we can be together anymore. Not after what you've done."

"I'm sorry! She was so seducing…"

"Shut up. I don't want to hear all your crap all over again. No matter how many times you say it, the answer is still the same. Did you care about us? Our daughter?"

"You know I love the both of you more than my own life."

"Then prove it's not all your bullshit again. And never come back. Wait. We'll leave. I'll take Tsuki to my hometown. The divorce papers will come within a month."

Tsuki could remember the coldness that her mother used in her voice to talk to her father. Nevertheless, he was still her father. She buried her head in her arms.

Ever since the divorce, Tsuki's mother was mentally unstable. She wanted vengeance against her father all the time. Once, she had even attempted to kill him. So she was put in the asylum and Tsuki decided to leave for Namimori by herself. She rented an apartment with the money she had gotten from some of the alimony for her mother and her personal allowance as well as living expenses depended on that. Her father was God knows where.

Time to study. Her eyes were wide open, but the words on the textbook were swimming before her eyes. She gave up.

Instead, she opened the window and saw that Takesushi was right next door. And it had a window directly facing her bedroom. Suddenly, the window opened.

And saw Yamamoto Takeshi staring straight at her.

That's Yamamoto's bedroom. Oh no.

His hair was disheveled, probably after drying his hair. She could still see moisture on the tips of his hair. The grin was still there, of course.

"Yo, Tsuki-chan! Studying? Didn't expect your bedroom to be right opposite mine!"

"Ah… Yamamoto-kun…" She sunk back into her shyness. It was the only place where she would feel safe. For now.

"Sugoi,(1) Tsuki-chan! Your bedroom's really sweet!"

Shit. He commented on my bedroom. A guy just commented on my bedroom and he said it was sweet.

"Arigatou (2)! Ah… Turn in early!" She dashed to close the window as soon as she felt the blush creep up her face.

Tsuki lay down on her bed. She had to admit, her bedroom was pretty sweet. It was decorated with cute figurines of Domo-kun and Strawberry Tofu.

Her thoughts moved to the boy next door. She closed her eyes and prayed.

Please let this crush last just a bit longer. And please let me be healthy enough to love.


Hey! Update! A bit of writer's block though. Hope I didn't make Takeshi too OC.

Sugoi: Awesome.

Arigatou: Thanks.

Thank you to all my reviewers! Your reviews really make me HAPPY! :D
